The cost of the platforms you already know

You're doing all the driving. Someone else is doing all the earning.

Most ride-hailing platforms deduct 20–35% of every fare before you see a franc. On a CHF 50 ride, that can mean up to CHF 15 gone before you even start the engine — every ride, every day, for as long as you drive on that platform.

  • Typical competitor commission: 20–35% per ride.
  • On a CHF 50 fare: up to CHF 15 kept by the platform, CHF 35 left for the driver.
  • Multiply that by every ride, every week, every month — it is the largest single expense in an independent driver's business, and it is invisible until you add it up.
A different model, on purpose

Keep 100% of every fare. Pay one flat subscription instead.

DirectTransfer takes 0% commission on every ride. Instead of a per-ride cut, drivers pay one predictable monthly subscription: free for the first 30 days, then CHF 39.95/month, then CHF 79.90/month. No matter how many rides you complete, the platform's share of your fare stays exactly the same: zero.

You remain an independent partner driver — your own vehicle, your own insurance, your own schedule. DirectTransfer is software, not an employer.

You're never told what to charge

You set the price. The platform only suggests a range.

Every ride works through a transparent auction. The passenger requests a ride; you and other nearby drivers see it and can offer a price inside a suggested range — never a fixed, imposed rate. The passenger can also propose a price. Whoever agrees to whose offer, agrees — the platform matches, it never dictates.

Do your own math

See what the commission model is actually costing you.

Enter your own numbers below — the platform never fills these in for you, and it never suggests what a ride should cost. This calculator only compares what you'd keep under a 20–35% commission model versus DirectTransfer's 0%.

Estimated monthly amount kept under commission platforms vs. kept under DirectTransfer's 0% model.

Kept under commission platforms (20–35%)
Kept under DirectTransfer (0% commission)

The DirectTransfer figure is 100% of the fare revenue above; it does not yet subtract your flat monthly subscription (free for the first 30 days, then CHF 39.95, then CHF 79.90) — that cost is fixed and does not change with ride volume.

This is a comparison of commission structures, not a promise of income or of ride volume. Actual earnings depend on the rides you accept and complete.

No hidden fine print

One price. Written in full, right here.

  • First 30 days: CHF 0 — full access, no credit card required to start.

No percentage of your fare, no per-ride fee, no surprise add-on. This is the entire price of the subscription — see `/legal` for the full Terms of Use.
