Starting a GRAB / UBER business

[shinies]

Wala naman pakialam ang Grab at UBER sa brand ng kotse. Basta hindi malaman ng Honda, walang problema sa warranty yan.

Gusto ko sana pasukin ito kaso i live in south parang hindi convenient na paruon at parito yung driver para igarahe yung sasakyan, baka hindi ko pa matutukan. Isa pa, sa dami ng interesado dito, i feel, this will further worsen the traffic in manila particularly edsa dahil kuha ng kuha ng sasakyan. Sa traffic ngayon IMO, mas matagal pa yung time spent sa traffic kesa sa tinakbo nung sasakyan. Im really considering this so torn ako.

pwede naman ang Honda, brio amaze yung samin... lakas lang sa gas.. better kung mitsubishi (mirage) or toyota...

Hello sa mga sis na grab partners. Ask ko lang APPROXIMATELY how much ang income dito. Like, for example: pumapasada si driver manila area, ng 10 hrs/day, 5 days a week. kikita ba ng take home/net at least 1k / day. I know iba iba ang kita per day. So gusto ko lang magkaidea approximately. Kasi yung mga napagtanungan kong grab drivers. They say they go out 6x a week. 12 hrs/day and nasa 1.5-2k ang take home nila. Kung d pa isasama yung gas baka nasa 2.5 ang kita.

Just wanted to know para magkaidea. Plan kasi namin kumuha talaga ng car. But malapit lang yung ofc namin sa bahay. So not necessary na magcar kami paofc. balak namin igrab pag weekdays since nakapark lang  naman sya sa bahay. pang tulong lang sa ammort. any inputs sisses?

Hi Girls,

yung car namin registered sa uber. pero madalang lang namin ilabas. Pinasok lang namin sa uber for extra income. Not advisable ang Uber for full time. Minsan, every morning lang namin linalabs for uber like 3 hours a day. Swerte na kung ilalabas sya na 10 times a month. If lalabas sya ng 3 hours a day, nasa mga 300-500 ang kita. Depende kung traffic or hindi. Okay sya na pang part time pandagdag amortization. Base sa earning ng car namin, pag every day 3 hours a day, 4 times a week (My coding kasi) nasa mga 4800 a month. Yung car namin eh Hyundai Accent na diesel. Super tipid nito sa gas. yung 500 gas namin, balikan na from batangas. 

[justine]

any uber driver/operator from san pedro/binan? please pm me. thanks!

^^4800 less gas na? Also account yung maintenance cost, kahit 3 hours/day, nagma-matter ang kilometer reading.

Based on your figures, @48 hours per month, 100/hour ang income. Assuming na mag 12 hours/day ako kunyari, average earning in one day 1200. So kung 24 days/month, 28.8k. Maliit pala noh?

Hindi ko na sinasama sa computation yung gas. pero madalas in a week nasa around 500-800 lang gas namin. We live in Makati and work in makati kaya malapit lang office kaya hindi kami magastos sa gas plus my gas allowance na hindi namin na uubos in a month from office so hindi na din namin sinasama sa computation pati yung maintenance cost since hindi naman full time. part time lang naman and sayang naman kung naka tambay lang sa garahe yung kotse since gamitin man or hindi, bumababa parin yung value ng car. Ang maintenance namin every 5000 kilometers. Casa maintained nasa around 2-3k per visit (As of now) since puro change oil palang yata ginagawa. wala pang parts yung dapat palitan. So if iaasa sa Grab or Uber yung Monthly Amortization and maintenance, konti lang kikitain. Plus, swerte na rin kung kikita ka ng 100 per hour lalo na pag rush hour.

my bro in law drives an uber now, ang sis ko bale yung parang operator/partner ba yun. they started this when my bil got sacked from his regular job. so far in 2 months mukhang ok naman ang kita since eto lang sa ngayon source of income nilang family plus they pay pa the MA of the car, nakakasurvive naman.
I actually owned the car, paid for it for 3 years then binigay ko na sa sister ko since my hubby has a car naman, as long as i-continue nila MA for 2 more years.

he drives 5-6x a week i don't think maghapon because my sister complains na late na daw magstart or may mga oras nakatambay, closely monitored talaga ng sis ko siyempre nga naman baka magutom sila kung walang kikitain.
around 7 to 10k a week ata ang kita nila not so sure,  pero 1 time sa isang week naka 17k nett  si BIL ang saya ng sister ko lol

[rarity]

interested in getting a car din for Uber
but my main problem is finding a driver that I can trust
specially someone na masipag and maingat sa kotse.

I signed a petition from uber about stopping or preventing uber drivers from registering or joining uber since nakakadagdag daw sa traffic ang Uber is there any truth to this?

Baka naman pagbili ng kotse di nanagaaccept ang Uber ng new drivers

^Uber/Grab are still accepting partners. The only thing that is suspended is yung permit from LTFRB punio na kasi yung slots syempre they need to "Control" the 3 of vehicles that they can give permits as of now pnoprocess pa yung mga pending applications. Pag ok na ulit yun mag accept na ulit ltfrb ng application for permits. Pero if you're going to ask Grab/Uber if you can start na even without LTFRB's permit they will just respond "Ok lang naman po, pero we do not encourage such since di nila sagutin pag bumyahe kayo ng wala permit mahuli kayo as colorum 120,000 yun penalty nun sa kotse 200l ata sa van. ang problema kasi maiksilang yung validity ng mga permits na binibigay ni ltfrb if i'm not mistaken approx is at least 3 mos. ata tapos matagal mag revew lalo na ngayon. mga 3-6 mos. right now we have 2 vehicles na expired na yung permit and 1 na malapit na maexpire. pnoprocess na yung renewal. bumabyahe padin yung 3 yun lang ingat talaga. Para sa mga nagbabalak palang.. payo lang mga sis kung medyo maiksi ang pisi naten (Finance) and ayaw nyo din itake ang risk ng pagbyahe ng sakyan habang wala pa permit e wag na muna kayo kumuha. tatakbo na kasi yung monthly nyo tapos di pa kayo makaka byahe (pero kung willing to take the risk GO) imagine huhulugan mo yung sasakyan ng di pa sya kumikita tapos mga 3-6 mos. ang waiting ng  permits. medyo masakit sa bulsa pero kung wala naman kayo prob sa monthly kahit di pa kumikita sasakyan keri lang din. tumatanggap padin po sila.  di naman grab/uber cars ang nagpapabigat ng traffic kundi mga walang disiplinang drivers. Kung walang traffic baka ako mismo di ko na gamiting sasakyan ko unless madami bitbit or mag travel malayo.. Gulo ng ltfrb sa totoo lang.  Sorry mahaba na post ko. Hope it shed some light kahit papano.

My sister joined her new car sa uber pati driver namin for the sake of earning extra income.  1 year down the road and parang hindi ata sila active.

[toxicgirl1108]

the best formula for grab/uber business is the "boundary system".

before kasi my friend drives our car with 50/50 sharing minus the gas.  ang problema po kasi pag medyo tinamad si kuya, paghahatiin namin kung magkano ang kinita nya for the day.  for example, 1000 minus 200 gas, tig 400 na lang kami, it will not even enough to cover the MA of the car pag laging ganon.  so we tried to look for a good driver that really passionate in driving (with care) our unit then nag offer kami ng boundary system. in any given day he earn 2,500 to 3,500 from 5am to 2pm then another 2,500 to 4,000 from 5pm to 10pm (at least).  both of us are happy and malaki ang na take home ng driver kaya pursigido sya at the same time we can cover the MA and additional 8k monthly as income namin.

Hi! To any Uber / Grabcar business partners, ok parin ba mag earn sa kanila ngayon? and which company is better? Thanks!

[monkeybusiness]

Any update / feedback pa from others here? Which one's better, Uber or Grab?
Also about boundary system, ok na ba na boundary yung 1000 per day? Kasi i think ang mga taxi has higher boundary. Is it less gas na?

[Ms. Lavender]

Buhayin ko lang ulit yung thread sana meron pang naguUber/Grab dito. We registered our AUV sa Grab almost 3 months na nagooperate. Boundary system 1000 daily except yung coding day, sa driver na yung gas at maintenance nung sasakyan. So far okay naman at maayos naman yung driver, inaalagaan niya din yung sasakyan.

Meron na ba ditong nakapagprocess na ng requirements to get PA? Nagpoprocess palang kasi ako and nastuck ako sa part na kelngan magupdate ng TIN status. Worry ko kasi since employed ang status ko ngayon, baka pag dineclare ko na may business pa ako sa e madoble yung tax na ikaltas sakin e may tax nadin na kinakaltas sa payslip ko? TIA po sa makakasagot

[Norielyn]

Hello tanong ko lang po if tumatanggap pa si uber/grab ng new applications? TIA
