Duration: 02 November 2020 to 31 January 2021

What does a Trip Fare guarantee mean?
This refers to the total Trip Fare (amount that you earn on the app, exclusive of zone boost and quest incentives) that you earn for the designated shift period.
For example, John (on Bike) earns a total of $38 for his 3 hour lunch shift in Central on a Weekday. A top up of $10 will be processed to his cash wallet the following day as he has not hit the minimum trip fare guarantee of $48. However, if John earns $50 for the designated shift, he will not get any top up as he has earned more than the guaranteed amount.
All other incentives remain the same and are in addition to the trip fares.
Requirement & Criteria for Trip Fare guarantee
In order to receive the Minimum Trip Fare guarantee, all delivery-partners are to maintain:
A no-show takes away the slot from another Delivery-Partner. If you are unable to make it for your shift, do remember to release your booking.
Delivery-Partners who do not show up for their booked shift(s) or achieve less than 50% of their shift will face strikes and receive reminder messages from Grab. A 3-strike rule has been implemented and delivery-partners who receive 3 strikes in a week will be banned from booking a shift for the following week.
For example, John still did not show up for his shifts even after receiving reminder messages and received the message on Monday, 28th December, informing him that he is banned from booking shift(s) for the following week of 4th to 10th January. He can only book shift(s) again from 11th January onwards.
Delivery-partners found out to be attempting possible fraud will be suspended from GrabFood platform.
All appeals for ban should be submitted by Tuesday 2359.
You will be informed of your appeal application by the end of Friday.
*You should only appeal if you received the SMS saying that you have received 3 strikes and will be banned from booking shift. Appeals for strike count will not be processed.

COVID-19 has dealt an unprecedented blow to the tourism industry, affecting the livelihoods of millions of workers. One of them was Komsan, an assistant chef in a luxury hotel based in the Srinakarin area.
As the number of tourists at the hotel plunged, he decided to sign up as a GrabFood delivery-partner to earn an alternative income. Soon after, the hotel ceased operations.
Komsan has viewed this change through an optimistic lens, calling it the perfect opportunity for him to embark on a fresh journey after his previous job. Aside from GrabFood deliveries, he now also picks up GrabExpress jobs. It can get tiring, having to shuttle between different locations, but Komsan finds it exciting. And mostly, he’s glad to get his income back on track.
