TAKE CONTROL

Know in advance if an extra stop is needed!

From 24 May 2017, GrabCar driver-partners will be informed in advance when an extra stop is needed for a booking. The additional distance is calculated upfront and reflected in the fixed fare when passengers make the booking, allowing for more certainty when accepting up the job. The further the additional stop, the higher the fare.

This feature is enabled for JustGrab, GrabCar, GrabFamily, GrabCar (Premium), 6-seater (Economy) and 6-seater (Premium) jobs.

Points to note:

  • GrabCar driver-partners will be notified of both stops even before picking up the passenger.
  • GrabCar driver-partners will not be required to input the additional stop surcharges as the displayed fare includes the cost of the extra distance travelled.
  • This feature only works for one additional stop per ride.
  • If passengers request for stops outside of what’s indicated in their booking, driver-partners should revert to the previous additional stop surcharge policy.
  • Waiting time grace period and surcharges still apply.
  • This feature does not apply for GrabShare.
