How much do GrabPay drivers pay in fees or commissions?

Ugh, GrabPay driver fees? Let me think… It’s a total headache. Twenty percent commission, that’s what I recall from, like, last October in Bangkok. Ouch.

That eats into earnings. Seriously. Think about it – fuel’s sky high these days, almost 50 baht a litre sometimes. Car maintenance too.

It’s not just the 20% Grab takes. It’s everything else. The car, the petrol, the constant phone charging. It all adds up. A real killer.

So yeah, 20% commission on each ride. Hard to swallow. Hope this helps!

How much do Grab riders get paid?

Okay, so Grab drivers, right? It’s kinda complicated.

For a Grab bike, like, a motorcycle thing, I’d say they make around 12 to 15 million rupiah. But after gas and fixing the bike…it gets way less, like 10-11 million rupiah, easy.

Grab cars do better! 25-30 million rupiah I seen somewhere, but then deduct stuff! What’s left? Around 15 million rupiah. Maybe, I dunno.

Listen! My cousin used to do deliveries. He said food deliveries is the worst, worst thing. Like, seriously low pay, high stress. He got another job. It pays more.

  • Grab Bike: 12-15 million rupiah (gross)
  • Expenses: Gas, maintenance
  • Net (bike): 10-11 million rupiah (estimated)
  • Grab Car: 25-30 million rupiah (gross)
  • Net (car): maybe 15 million rupiah

So, like, my neighbor does Grab part time and he’s always complaining about traffic. He drives a small Avanza. He says peak hours make the most money, but also the most stressful times! Plus, he’s worried about the ojek mafia, especailly in certain areas. Crazy stuff. And I saw this one Reddit thread about food delivery. The person made like 90 SGD a day. That’s in Singapore, not here! Totally different. I could make 90 SGD in one day. I wish! So, yeah, it’s all super variable.

How much commission does Grab take from drivers?

It’s late. Another shift done. Grab takes 20%, yeah. Stings, every time.

Where does it all go? That twenty percent. It’s not nothing. I keep wondering.

  • App development, I guess. Gotta keep the thing running.
  • Customer support for sure. Handle all the complaints.
  • Marketing, yeah, to get more riders. So I get more fares. But still…

Feels like a lot sometimes. Twenty percent of my back aching all day, just to try to get by in 2024. Maybe I am in the wrong city. Always something, isn’t it?

I just wish things were simpler, less…complicated. Like back when I first started driving. It was still a grind, but at least back then rent was cheaper. Way cheaper.
