Some people can earn up to RM2K a week!
What about you guys?

To minus,
-20% for commission
-20% for fuel
-10% for wear and tear
= 50% nett pay (roughly rm 4000 per month)
= roughly 4000/30 = RM 133 per day

32 jobs per day, if 15 minute per job means
= 480 minutes of driving (if wait time about 10%) that means
= 480 x 1.10
= 528 minutes = 8.8 hrs job per day (roughly)

=> meaning RM 133 / 8.8 = Rm 15.11 per hour job

If you can find a part time job that pays RM 15.11/hr don't do grab, actually tuition job can also give you so much.

Driving + waiting for rides for 8.8 hours per day can damage your health badly unless you are thinking of TEMPORARY or PART TIME or if you have NO other better choice.

BTW - uncle drove GRAB for a few months exploring the idea if to have a fleet of GRAB cars and decided not to venture further.

This one need at least 60-70 hrs per week to achieve that gross figure, haven't minus the commission 20%, petrol and maintenance etc.

Do you even know the meaning of "earn"?

haiyah I seen some earned 4k-5k per week before

no big deal 2k hahahaha

haha is just a sharing....
Definitely is a real hardwork...

May not viable to long run...

While the pay is not much, it is possible to make preety good connections driving for GRAB. A friend of mine drove for Grab/Uber for a couple of years before he met with a fellow driver who started hiring him to ferry customers from the airport to Airbnb hostels. He also gave cheap all day private tours of KL and Melaka to the angmohs for extra money.

Fast forward, and that friend of mine has been given the opportunity to buy a few rooms in a KL condo to do the same airbnb business by that initial friend. Now making in excess of RM8k a month without needing to drive as much as Grab. On peak months, easily can hit RM14k a month without driving a lot also.

Gosh! That sound really awesome! easily hit RM14K is the point!!!

Grab is the great platform for networking

My buddys selling properties also drive grab full time

I taking uber n grab to do networking as well.

well done!
The future is yours HAHA

This is truly the best case scenario...

woww...easily 300km per day...after 1 month car need servicing already...

everyday need to fill up petrol & top up TNG

i took a grab once...myvi car...mid-age guy...he told me he drives 10-12 hours per day, 7 days a week. no break. and with that, RM8k+ gross earning.

again, nett earning should be just RM4k or so...and for that, 7 days week working.

honestly, e-hailing should not be a full time job. supplementing your income, yes. earn when ur free, b4/after work or on weekends, yes. relying on this as full time job and sole income source, definitely no-no.
no drive = no income
take holiday = no income
car broke down/send for service = no income

not to mention, its really bad for health driving 10-12 hours a day, 7 days a week, 31 days a month

Gross and nett earnings r totally different

Says it all. Thanks bro!

haha I full time but only drive 5 days a week less than 300km daily minyak RM40-RM50 daily

how did I fare as late adult with no commitments at all car loan all clear and stay in small rented house RM500 month

yea, it is never a great idea to continuously drive for so many hours and days. I feel "vomit" after drive for 5 hours too.
It should be just leisure or part time job. I do it when I am bored and feel like driving.

Seem like doing his is worth ya.

It is, but some risk is there. The rooms costs RM2.5k a month in rent and there is the initial capital of RM30k for one room. Both rooms are very close to KLCC, however, so other places might be cheaper.

Haha looks like airBNB is the real deal yo

if i were to count, i think can earn 350 easily and deduct 30% for petrol

Haha i happy with thousand a week

Cost in southern is very low and i liking it

I drove around in Penang, but the fare kinda suck.. haha

But if you drive during surge time very good oooo

5km for RM50

My member got show off before haha dang

LOL 5KM for RM50!!! when is the surge time? LOL

sometimes grab calculation algorithm screws up. i once got a 2km distance job for rm 20 or so too once haha
I kept refreshing my waze but there were no errors. I drove happily lol

HAHAHAHAHA! that is so nice! The rider probably hate Grab ever since then... LOL

Agree with this. last time i drove Uber for few days night time, my back felt like 'patah' ady. FYI, i just 20++ yrs old lol.

hahaha yea!
unless I am driving Type-R Honda Civic!!!

Haha same at 30++

After 3rd hour stop when got chance

I love driving even since 10 years ago...
but continuously driving for 3-5 hours in the city is NO NO NO.... haha

Haha mine is from north south east west

My zone hardly can stuck in 1 area very long

started from 2016, I can drive RM14-16k/month.
2017 - RM7-10k/month

Drivers from 2015 I know can get 20-25k.

Congrats 4 surviving whacking back the red clan taxis while daring 2 pick up passengers next 2 their stand in the most prime area in the city

I started middle of last year just 8k now 5k hahahaha

Is this true? can you verify by some ref. or proof? very amazing. if hardworking and a bit of luck like him, why not

Haha maybe not in 2019

JPJ clamping keta sapu aka pah wang chia hahahaha

wow, if real i wanna be grab too! haha
2k per week is better than office job

u go try out as part timer then u will understand whether is it profitable now or not.

Mind u the figure is based on 7 days driving and certain more than 10 hrs per day. And not yet deduct commission, petrol and other car expenses.

Watch your health ya

Also free 2 stop by if 15 minutes no booking

good for single actually, you get to pick up some hot chicks once a while

Yes, u are right, my fren work as grab driver last 2 years as partimer, now he had to pay even more for the car part that had broke down..

ANyone has experience with Grabpremium, how is the income and what are the requirement.

crapcar not recruiting new premium driver....

what is the requirements of premium car?

MPV vellfire and above😄😆

ok, I am out lol

where got, or its this new rule ?

last time is as long as 2000cc above D segment, leather seat, less than 10 years, driver rating 4.85 above, can already

Haha ouch

Merc, Lexus, BMW more towards luxurious kind of car. I think there’s a list.

so true. but that some one will say " i dont need to listen to boss"

can i add somemore?
EPF tarak, socso tarak, bonus tarak.
Chinese New year I can enjoy my bonus of 3to 4 months, but that someone still need to drive. cannot stop
Hari Raya I eat lemang/satay with my malay colleague, that someone still need to drive because that 2 hours are peak hours

TLDR

Time is money

guys, may i know how much u can earn in saturday or sunday? assume you just drove 12 hour...

depend what car u use.

depend u on or off AA

if normal grabcar/justgrab

with off AA gross 300-350 should be no problem

assume 300 - 20% left 240.

deduct petrol rm60. left rm180

IC, thanks a lot for sharing.

Better be 3D worker...

haha bangla already took over that sector

As a part time grab driver, I would say no hard working no gain.

I drive 4 hours per day from 7pm - 11pm, to be honest net income can get around 1.5k. But it really not a easy task, I only have 1 hour to rest and eat after my daily job & before start driving grab. Then morning I need to wake up at 5:30am to send my son go to school & rushing to work at 9am morning.

Some of my friends always ask why you still want to work as grab driver? I would answer them, because it is the faster legal way to get instant cash.

test

Hear from the driver who are more honest.

Average full time drivers income around 3-4 k per month. Nett of commission, petrol and maintenance. All of us need sometime to rest, spend time attending own/ family matters and car/ drivers have downtime too.

I talked to a Grab driver. He said it is possible for him to make RM 20k per month.
Here is his secret. He is selective about when he operates and targets periods where there is slow supply and where there is high demand, such as Friday prayers, during then the supply drops and it becomes easy money for the likes of him.

Might as well the grab driver can earn RM100k per month.

4k & 20k? why the different are so far? small town driver compare city driver ah?

More like JB vs KL hahahaha

As a 0 commitment folk with 0 kids 4k monthly is perfect

Wta if using proton x50 for grab is it possible to make money? Can make minimum rm4k a month???

Nope

Cost 2 high

Better invest cars like almera city vios

Cost per earning ratio is perfect

Thanks for replying. This thread is about 5 years old wta what's the current average income for full time grab using city or vios? Still possible to reach rm8k or more???

After COViD i say 50% dip for KL JB maybe still can go old days provided you stay around areas with dollar visitors hahahaha

So KL can expect about rm5k if it's a good month?

Yeah

Around that

Last 2 weeks of December will be the most money raining season ever

Just gotta know how 2 avoid jam locations
