Quick answer. GeraRide driver earnings = (gross fare − platform commission) + incentives + tips − optional deductions (rental, insurance, data). Weekly payouts run every Monday to the driver's local bank, Idram, M-Pesa, or MoMo wallet. The tutorial below walks one realistic week from first tap to first payout.

Step 1: Open the Driver Earnings Tab

After you activate driver mode, the Earnings tab becomes visible in the app drawer. It shows today, this week, last week, and all-time totals in your local currency.

What each line means

Gross fare — the rider-paid amount for the trip.
Commission — the platform share (varies by city, typically 15–25%).
Incentives — bonuses for completing quests (e.g. 20 rides before Sunday).
Tips — passenger tip, 100% to driver.
Deductions — only if you opted into rental or data.

Step 2: Understand the Per-Ride Split

Every ride card shows the split. Tap one to see: minutes driven, distance, fare, commission, incentive eligibility. Nothing is hidden; nothing is compressed.

Step 3: Track Incentives in Real Time

Weekly quests refresh every Monday 00:00 local time. A 30-ride quest pays an incentive on the 30th completed ride, visible live as you drive.

Step 4: Worked Weekly Example

A driver in Yerevan completes 48 rides over six days. Gross fare total is the sum of 48 ride fares. Commission is deducted per ride. Two quests (20 rides, 40 rides) pay incentives on ride 20 and ride 40. Tips accrue separately. Total payout lands Monday morning via Idram.

Step 5: Payout Day

Payouts run every Monday at 06:00 local time. A notification confirms landing. Bank rails can add one business day; Idram, M-Pesa, and MoMo are instant in most corridors.

Cross-Product

Drivers wanting a stable multi-currency buffer often route tips into GeraCash. Vehicle insurance can be bought weekly on GeraSure. Drivers who list a spare room top up earnings via GeraRent.

Next Step

Open the GeraRide driver signup. The first three rides after onboarding carry a first-week bonus in most markets.
