Thank you for the clarification boss, please I would
Like to ask you a question as a newbie on this job.

how much are you accepting per trip with it Kilometers? To enable you achieve the posted amount.

What’s the best time to work to achieve this ?

Please I do not not want to just accept trips and burn fuel ⛽️

You can inbox me with your WhatsApp number if you don’t mind boss mi.

Omoapena has done justice to your enquiry.
Furthermore, there's actually nothing like best time to work, because some people are night drivers while others do day driving.
Some start working as early as 6am and close in the night - what you need is to go out as early as you can and work till night, from there, you go know the best TIME for yourself.
Lastly, whatever you want to make enquiry about, always bring it here and get ideas from people.
There were some guys on this platform that were on my WhatsApp and they would be asking questions which I would give answers to my best knowledge, today, they are nowhere to be found. 🤷‍♂️
When you throw your questions here, you will always get the best answers to them.

Much respect, boss.

Please I see City to city request From Ilorin to Lagos. I must buy full tank for of 59k how much can I charge the person to Lagos ?

Omoapena:


accepts only trips with 400naira/km & above, any trips below 400naira/km is ridiculous and sometimes, some trips that are 400naira/km isn't fair too.

I will advise you stick to bolt for some months so you can have proper understanding on the pricing then you will be able to identify good fare on indrive, you can use indrive to cover fuel expenses anytime you want to go home...


which state are you?

Lagos. Thank you @Omoapena. God bless you abundantly

I still don’t know where they put amount per kilometer in InDrive I might have to keep looking whenever orders comes in

I saw the prices, but I guess It was when it was totalled up it hit me how much I was actually spending. This is like part of provision for a secondary school kid. So you realize why I was shocked.

You've got to be fast checking all these. Cos while you're checking and analysing the trip, other drivers don pick and go.
This Naira/Km doesn't work with indrive, what you should pay attention to is TIME of travel.
Now, check these below - which one would you rather pick?

Start with bolt or Uber first, then switched to indrive when you understand the hustle well.

D worst trip here is d 2nd one from Berger to island for 12k 30km.
Best trip to me is d 1st from tejuosho to ago place for 7k. Even d 3rd trip make better sense.


Generally I am after trip dat gives me 10k and above to areas where I can see anoda good trip....
Especially from mainland to island. Kus I will drive above 60km per hour which will help conserve fuel rather dan trips dat will make me drive slowly

this is what we are saying, the one you considered best is actually the worst here while the one you condemned is the best, 12800 from berger to VI is a very good price, and considering you won't be spending much time on the Job and you're sure of getting another better trip in VI.

that 7k to ago is worst, you will encounter traffic and that route the map showed there isn't advisable to follow at all, you will want to take ijesha to link Cele bridge which is longer and slower route.

that km you're seeing to point A is the pickup distance and time to get there while the KM to point B is the distance to destination and time to get there.


indrive isn't that hard to understand tho but because you're a newbie, it might look complicated to you.


aside from the 400naira/km I mentioned earlier, other factors are very important too, normally, a trip with distance less than 10km shouldn't take you more than 20mins to finish, anything above that 20mins means there's traffic along that route and a trip of 30km will take like 40mins without traffic and anything above 40mins means there's traffic but sometimes the traffic can be a moving one and not static



my advise is, use bolt for now when you're working while use indrive to find destination trip.

Please tell President Tinubu that he removed the only thing (subsidy on PMS) poor Nigerians enjoy in this country just to enrich the elite.

Tell me why the Katsina governor is digging one borehole for ₦375 million.

What the president could have done with the subsidy was reform and demand ability within the subsidy regime instead of removing it entirely.

Now, he is giving the money to governors who are using the accrued funds to enrich themselves and stop sharing statistics

Good evening my Bosses,
I am a newbie. Please I need your advice.

I just bought a Naija used 2014 Hyundai Accent that I intend to use for uber & bolt for now. I am an interior designer and I need this to my income in this ojuyobo economy.

I have gotten different advice from some guys but I need genuine ones from professionals who have been in the grind for sometime.

Okay, so what's the best phone to use to get the best results from your experience. Some guys said iPhone is the best. Others said I can use android smartphones like Samsung or Redmi etc. Also, internet, some guys said I should buy and use smile or mtn 4g mifi for best results while some guys said I can just subscribe on my phone sim and get same results.

I am taking my car for inspection next week and hope to start most likely mid June if all goes well. Thanks guys

Baba, when someone is picking a 50min trip for 7k and ignore a 43min trip @12.8k because it is 30km, what else can person say again?
We gats tell some people, on indrive, TIME is money, not kilometres or speedometer. grin
Him go learn the hard way. grin

Lolz...Your first and second paragraphs are contradicting each other.
This is why u need training. Ehailing isn't to just enter car and be driving. U need to calculate and analyze every trip.
Do u know how long it will take u to complete Tejuosho to Ago Palace Trip? Then to get another trip back to town??
Meanwhile Berger to Lekki will be done in 1hr max and before u say jack u are doing second and third trips, u can be lucky to get a return trip back to d mainland. While the person that went to Agopalace will still be looking at phone for trip or driving long pickup distance through bad streets to get to pickup point if u even get lucky to get a good trip.
This is the difference between the person making 120k daily and the person doing 60k - 80k.

Good evening chiefs in the house,

With my down payment readily available, I’m looking for anyone who is willing to give out their car on hire purchase or rentals, this is needed for e-hailing in order to boost my income.

Maintenance of vehicle can be in my care though depends on agreement reached.

I have a verifiable guarantor, location and documents.

Thank you, as I wait for s.
