Companies including JoyRide, Angkas, Move It, and Grab confirmed that they have lowered their commission cuts to help ease the financial burden on drivers affected by increasing fuel costs. JoyRide said it reduced its commission for four-wheel vehicles from 20% to 15%, with some drivers able to bring it down further to 10% through incentives tied to activity levels. Move It also introduced a graduated commission scheme starting at 15%, alongside additional support such as fuel vouchers to help drivers manage daily expenses. Lawmakers have pushed for more structured policies, suggesting mandatory commission reductions during periods of high fuel prices to better protect drivers’ earnings. Officials noted that even small percentage cuts could have a meaningful impact on drivers’ take-home income.
