Grab introduces a new feature in their chat system which allows passengers to send photos to their drivers. Grab implemented this feature to reduce the number of booking cancellations on the driver's end due to lack of communication or misunderstanding. For now, only passengers can send photos to the drivers but not the other way around. Photos are also removed when the booking is complete but are stored in Grab's database for potential referencing. 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. For four-wheel ride-hailing, Grab reduced its commission from around 20–21% to 18%. JoyRide: 20% → 15% (can drop to 10% with incentives) Angkas: 20% → 15% (can go as low as 0% for active riders) Move It: Now starts at 15% (with fuel vouchers support) Grab: 20–21% → 18% Read more in our articles including "GrabChat photo-sharing feature announced" and "LTO raises cybersecurity concerns over expiring LTMS contract".
