And, a detail, with this feature, the passenger cannot change the destination, start point, or add stops after the agreement is confirmed.
How to Negotiate the Fare Directly With the Driver?
The systems are called “Uber Your Price” or “99 Negotiates”. To use them, it is necessary to have the app downloaded (Uber or 99) and on the updated version. When opening the app, just click on “Your Price” and type in the amount you want to pay. The driver has the option to accept the proposal or make a counterproposal.
Now, an important detail for drivers: these rides are not counted towards missions or promotions; on the other hand, they do not affect the acceptance rate.
According to Uber, this feature has already been operating in some Latin American countries and arrived in Brazil some time ago.
How Much Does an Uber and 99 Driver Earn on Average Per Month?
The average earnings of an Uber or 99 driver in Brazil can vary significantly depending on various factors, such as the city where they operate, the number of hours worked, fuel costs, vehicle maintenance, among others.
On average, a full-time driver can earn between R$ 3,000 and R$ 5,000 per month. However, these amounts are approximated and can be higher or lower depending on the individual conditions of each driver.
It is important to consider that these earnings do not represent net profit, as expenses such as fuel, car maintenance, taxes, and fees charged by the platforms must also be deducted.
Factors such as demand for rides, peak hours, promotions offered by the platforms, and geographic location directly influence earnings.
So, will you take advantage of this new feature to save on your trips?
