Grab revamps app for drivers

It features an earnings overview and enhanced driver portfolio.

Grab is rolling out a refreshed driver app with the aim of helping its driver-partners earn more and save more, an announcement revealed.

Designed with feedback from Grab’s driver-partners, the updated app will feature four key components comprising an enhanced driver profile, a “Discover” hub to help driver-partners access more earning opportunities from Grab’s ecosystem, GrabBenefits to enable easier access to rewards and savings, and an earnings overview for clarity on day-to-day earnings.

Through the Discover hub, drivers can discover opportunities to earn outside of driving. For example, Grab driver-partners in Singapore can choose to earn additional income through GrabAds, either by using their cars as a mobile billboard or through in-car engagements. It also features a feed which surfaces information such as heat maps and events taking place nearby to help drivers earn more through driving.

With the new GrabBenefits section, drivers can browse and redeem discounts, deals and rewards. Driver-partners in Singapore can find offers such as up to 30% fuel discounts, mobile phone plan discounts, healthcare and dental benefits.

The new features are being rolled out in stages to all Grab driver-partners across Southeast Asia. Selected driver-partners in Singapore already have access to Discover Hub and GrabBenefits, and will be rolled out to all drivers in Singapore progressively. They will also enjoy the new enhanced earnings overview and driver profile in the coming months.
