For drivers

Keep 90%.
Every trip.

One flat R100 Day Pass instead of commission. You keep 90% of every fare, the other 10% goes back to your rider as Link Credits, and the more you drive, the more the pass pays off. A good week belongs to the person who worked it.

The Day Pass

R100 flat, per active day

Charged only on days you complete a trip, and taken from that day’s earnings. Never upfront, and never more than you made that day. Don’t drive? Don’t pay.

Versus commission

22% gone on every fare

On a R2 000 day, 22% commission takes R440. On Link you keep 90% and pay one R100 pass: R1 700 in your pocket, R140 more.

Fast cash-out

24h between payouts

Request a payout to your bank once a day when your balance reaches R300. No week-long waits for money you already made.

Do the maths

See what a flat fee really means…

R6 000

Total value of the trips you complete, before any deduction.

6 days

Each day you drive costs one R100 Day Pass on Link.

22%

Typical commission on the incumbent platforms is 20–25%.

Commission platform keeps

−R1 320 22% of R6 000 in fares

Extra in your pocket on Link

R720

That is roughly R37 440 a year, on the same trips, in the same car.

Illustrative only, using a R100 Day Pass and the commission rate you selected. Your own figures will depend on the days you drive.
