Please please please, share these images far and wide! The great Uber rip off! I have just spent a long day at the airport as OR Tambo somehow ran out of fuel! Just got into my Uber to travel home, and I was amazed how cheap it was, the Uber app first gave me an amount of around R350. When I confirmed the trip, they changed the price to R520.91. I was amazed, BUT when I asked the Uber driver how much he was being paid he showed me the next image of ZAR242.33!!! How can this be? Uber management are taking more than 50% of the price and discounted the driver earnings. We need the transport ministry to get involved here urgently and address this scam! I want to note, my last few business trips overseas in Europe and the US, I noted that their Uber drivers are earning a hell of a lot more than our South African drivers. I am proudly South African and we need to do something about this.

Le débunk

🤔 To be nuanced There has been a commercial conflict between Uber drivers and the app's publisher for several years in South Africa. Indeed, in 2022, there was already a strike by Uber drivers demanding a reduction in Uber's commission rates: https://cvc.li/RFyiA These rates are officially 25% + 3% (fees) of the trip price: https://cvc.li/RFyiA https://cvc.li/pMChY However, this rate can vary depending on Uber's promotions (which are passed on to the driver's earnings, with Uber maintaining its margin...): https://archive.ph/wYG6o Details: The average monthly income of an Uber driver in South Africa is 8,082 rands. https://cvc.li/fApAS The average monthly salary is 24,813 rands (and the median is 5,417). https://cvc.li/Rczet
