New Kose drivers enjoy 30 days of commission-free earnings. Here's how our subscription model puts more money in drivers' pockets.
At Kose, we believe that drivers should keep more of what they earn. That's why we've introduced a model that's fundamentally different from what most ride-hailing platforms offer.
Most ride-hailing platforms take 20–25% of every fare. The more you earn, the more they take. This creates a situation where drivers are working harder but not seeing proportional returns. During slow periods, the commission still bites into already thin earnings.
Instead of taking a cut of every ride, Kose charges a flat weekly subscription fee. This means that once you've covered your subscription, every additional dollar goes straight into your pocket. Drive more, keep more — it's that simple.
Every new driver who joins Kose gets a full 30-day free trial. During this period, you pay absolutely nothing — no subscription, no commission, no hidden fees. It's our way of saying welcome and giving you time to learn the platform, build your rider base, and start earning with confidence.
Early Kose drivers in Harare are reporting significantly higher take-home earnings compared to other platforms. "I was losing almost a quarter of my earnings before," says Tatenda, a driver in Borrowdale. "With Kose, the subscription is predictable and everything else is mine."
