Direct vs. Uber/Bolt Break-Even
Your own customers instead of Uber and Bolt. See in seconds how many direct rides replace 100 Uber rides. And what you save.
Ergebnis
Bei gleicher Fahrtenzahl (100) sparen Sie mit Direktkunden 550 € pro Monat.
Uber and Bolt are easy. But expensive. They take 20 to 25 cents from every euro. On 100 rides a month, that's 500 to 800 euros. Your business just gives that away. Direct customers take work. But every ride outside Uber or Bolt stays as margin.
How the calculator works
You type in your Uber or Bolt rides per month. Plus the average price per ride. And the platform fee you pay. The calculator shows two numbers. First: how many direct rides do you need for the same net revenue? Second: how much more money do you keep with the same rides direct instead of Uber?
What Fahrly does for you
Winning a direct customer takes work. Keeping them is easy. Fahrly's CRM module saves every customer after the first ride. Name, phone, wishes, every ride. The Website module (your own booking page) catches new requests. The Dispatch module (the ride assignment) sends a driver right away. So you earn from the same customer on every ride. An Uber passenger becomes your regular. They book with you, not the app.
Less Uber. More margin. All in one software.
One direct customer takes work once. After that, they pay every week. With ten fixed customers doing two rides a week each, you easily save 1,500 € in commission per month. And you are less dependent. If Uber raises the fee tomorrow, it only hits part of your revenue.
Häufig gestellte Fragen
›Why are direct customers worth it?
With direct customers, the Uber or Bolt fee is gone. Example: a 25 euro fare through Uber only leaves you around 18.75 euros net. Direct, it's about 24.25 euros. On 100 rides per month that's several hundred euros more.
›How do I build up direct customers?
The simple way: your own website with a booking form. Add partnerships with hotels and companies. A little SEO or Google Ads for your city. The Website module and CRM in Fahrly give you the tools. You build the relationships yourself.
›Does this fully replace Uber?
In most operations, no. Uber and Bolt still fill your schedule. A good mix is 50 to 70 percent platform and 30 to 50 percent direct. Every direct customer more means more margin.
