Artak, can share share your gross fare per km (before commission and maintenance) ?

i cant share it because i never counted it

also, I dunno how to do taht.

dont think drivers calculate that as well.
since there's no recorded data on:
1) how far from driver current place to pickup location. but if you want to assume the worst, let's put 5km pickup distance per incoming job request.
2) engine idle/driver idle duration when waiting for next ping
3) engine idle when stuck in jam, or queuing for toll

a better calculation would be how many bucks earned per hour, excluding maintenance & fuel. mine's at RM12-RM21/hr.

Assume u work
8hrs a day (morning 4hour, evening 4hour)
26days a month,
total rm2496~rm4368

pls don't forgot to pay car rental or car bank loan...
pls don't MC or take leave
pls don't over speed(summons or accident)
pls don't forgot there is no bonus for hari raya
😆

Haha good idea

Parking in this good thread

With Artak permission, I lay down my target daily and weekly. I say target/dream... not confirm sure doubledown 7 days in a week get okie....

Daily Mon to Fri is RM100 fare + RM50 incen. Driving hours 6pm - 11pm Fuel 10 liters

Sat is RM300 fare + RM100 incen Driving 12 hours Fuel 15 liters. Sunday same like Saturday target.

If I get more is a bonus and if I get less then it is just normal mehhh day. Well some days I spent all fuel cost and some days I got leftovers from yesterday. I just take it as what it is. Others can earn more or better mileage but this is what I can achieve most of the days. No KLIA trip involved, just normal fare + surge if lucky.

So, weekly theoretically is 500 + 600 = 1100 fare only and every Wednesday is 250 + 200 = 450 incen bank in. But... rarely weekdays so good ngam2 with weekend superb one... must be a few days got spanar or some weekdays good but weekend koyak... others days I score good fare but then my incen zero pulak... if you know what I mean?

All is gross and please minus commission + maintenance + installments + fuel cost to get nett

Cannot compare to FT Artak lorr.... He got a lot more time and $$$ and he Sifu Legend status got extra 6star in his DR rating... Hahaha.... (How is your car repair, dude? How many days goyang kaki, oredi?)

congrats to TS, good to know

Bro you drive at night only for weekdays?

Yes because I have office work in the day weekdays.

hahaha sorry guys i havent checked here. i got fanily visiting from kuching and all week w3 went to family durian dusun and eat free durian lol

ill tell my story a bit later. after the accident that other day it only took 2 days to fix everything and settle my insurance claim! imagine my surprise.

ill tell more later. with parents now.

im finally a bit free haha...

apparently theres more and more new grab driver registering these days.

To those who have been motivated by this thread I made with a totally different reason in the first place, to what it is right now - kudos to you guys hahaha

if theres any questions at all, feel free to ask in here. I received a lot of pm's asking for tips or just general questions, but I always redirect everyone back to this thread.

the thing is, just like you yourself, if whatever it is that we discussed in here have directly or indirectly influenced or help you in doing grab more efficiently, I would like to keep it that way. I prefer we keep all communications in here so that whatever current issues that we discussed, it will benefit future drivers

I had a bad start yesterday. Started the day off with my phone barred, cuz I forgot to pay the bills lol. I had to get back inside and wait till 10am for malls to open so I can pay up bills. what a waste of time lol

I officially started job at 11am yesterday but due to other reasons, I had to quit early with a nett profit of rm20 around 5pm. ah well...

today morning, My first trip was to KLIA. I shouted for joy lol. first trip already got RM65 XD

Once I reached KLIA, for the first time ever, I got ANOTHER trip from KLIA to Kajang! Thats another RM65 consecutively! So I took the guy out to to his hotel, and what do you know, once he got there he told me hes got no money lol. Hes got only Euro currency in his wallet, and the time was like 8.30am...

so I just decided Id help him go to a currency exchange place, but not after I "dropped" him off first at the hotel on grab apps. so we started moving back and forth looking for currency exchange, then helped him get a local sim card, set it up, take him to breakfast because he said he w to thank me, yada yada...

so, about 10am or so, I already made RM200 clean profit or so minus petrol. that guy also gave me some tip for helping him on top of the grab fare hehe

Today started off great, and I decided im gonna take a break for today, and for once, im gonna take it easy... maybe ill go to buy some grocery shopping or so haha

how have you guys been? for the new drivers, any trouble so far? btw, I have tip, or maybe not tip. just a guy I can call and share his contact info with you guys in case you guys are involved with any road accident while doing grab (or during personal drive)...

this guy helped me last time when I was hit from behind on highway while doing grab and the guy destroyed my bumper. totalled it... What I did was make a police report, and leave the rest to him. I only spoke to him once, when Im giving him all the necessary documents on friday. saturday/sunday off day, on tuesday I already got call from workshop telling me my car has finished repairs and urged me to go get it. I bullshit you not guys, the guy helped me claim insurance and sent my car to a workshop that does this claim, and I got my car back less than a week! (or technically, just in 2 days because were only counting working days)

also I forgot to say, I did not pay the guy who helped me a single cent! He said dont worry about it, trust him when he say he will get money from the insurance claim on 3rd party (the driver who hit me)...

haha. the guy is a real miracle worker yo XD

Haha interesting

Hi all. im not grab driver. just had a question. few days ago. i use grab. short story i had a problem, and that grab driver patiently help me. my question. can i tip grab driver by using tolls? for example if toll is rm5. then i told grab driver to input rm20 for tolls. does grab allow this? will grab driver get punished or something? i used credit card to pay. before anyone told me why not just give cash. i dont have small change 😅

just put it in toll. I dont think grab will deduct 20% commission from toll fees. thats not their money.

ok 👌 got it. thanks.
