Fairgo for drivers

What you keep, how you are paid, how offers reach you, what you need to be activated — and what is not available yet.

Last reviewed: 4 September 2026.

Fairgo is a ride-hailing app that connects riders with licensed independent drivers: riders pay the fare and nothing on top, and drivers keep at least 99% of it and every tip.

What you keep

99% of every fare and 100% of every tip. In a market where Fairgo (the ride-hailing app at fairgo.website) cannot collect its fee because there is no card payment — Morocco today — you keep 100% of the fare, your earnings screen shows no balance owed, and nothing is charged retroactively if that ever changes. On 1,000 in fares you keep 990, or 1,000 in Morocco; on a platform charging 25% you would keep 750.

By the rider, directly. Cash is yours the moment it is handed over. Where Stripe operates in your country and you have completed Stripe onboarding, card fares settle to your own Stripe account: you are the merchant of your own rides. The money never enters a Fairgo balance, so there is no weekly payout to wait for, no instant-cash-out fee and nothing Fairgo can withhold.

How the 1% is collected

Never from a trip, and never by invoice. The 1% accrues on your account and is settled out of your next card payment as Fairgo's share of that charge, capped at 10% of that payment. Across all your fares it comes to 1%, and never more. Tips are never part of the fee base.

How offers reach you

Dispatch ranks by one main parameter: distance from the pickup point. If you are the nearest driver who is online, active and not on a trip, you get the offer and have 45 seconds to answer; if you do not, it moves to the next-nearest. There is no paid placement, no priority tier and no way to buy a better position. You can decline any offer without penalty: declines are not recorded, there is no acceptance rate and no hidden score.

Your price

In driver-set markets — the model Fairgo prefers, because a driver who sets their own tariff is genuinely independent — you set your rates, and the price a rider is shown is your price. In platform-priced markets the fare is computed centrally and any surge is shown to the rider with its multiplier. In meter markets the meter decides.

Independence in practice

Getting activated

Your account goes active only once every document your market requires for private-hire transport has been checked and approved. Documents are read automatically; anything that does not pass cleanly is reviewed by a person, which can take longer than a machine. The Support page covers verification delays. Fairgo is professional private-hire transport, not carpooling: you must be legally entitled to carry passengers for hire in your market.

Safety, from the driver's side

Before a trip starts the rider gives you a PIN and the server verifies it; a trip cannot start without it, so the person in your car is the person who booked. Riders must be 16 or older. There is no in-app audio recording and no continuous background tracking.

What is not available yet

Your data

Fairgo does not sell personal data, does not track you across other apps or websites, and the driver app contains no advertising SDK. What is collected, who receives it and how long it is kept is on the Privacy Policy.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Fairgo driver keep?

99% of every fare, 100% in markets where the fee is 0% such as Morocco, and 100% of every tip.

When am I paid?

Immediately. Cash is yours in the car; card fares settle to your own Stripe account. Fairgo never holds the money, so there is no payout cycle.

Can I refuse a ride?

Yes, without penalty. Declines are not recorded and there is no acceptance rate.

Can I drive for Uber or Bolt at the same time?

Yes. Fairgo requires no exclusivity.

What do I need to sign up?

Every document your market requires for private-hire transport. Your account is activated once all of them are checked and approved.

Can I download the driver app today?

Not yet. As of 4 September 2026 Fairgo Driver is not on the App Store and there is no Android version. The Get the app page explains how to be told when that changes.
