This video is AWESOME, thank you so much! 🙌🏾 I almost got discouraged, but I remembered about RUclips university 🤣 I typed I “How to make real money with Lyft” You were my first option and I'm sold! I’m 4.5 years in, with my best day at $780, best week at $2,300, in an MDX. I'm in a 5 seater now and took a year break. I have to start back at the bottom and it sucks here 🤣 This video has saved me. Thank you! 😊
@@MiIran-jv7bc Honestly, when I was racking up on Lyft I made it my full time job at the time. I believe you can as long as you’re disciplined to not turn that app off until you have Made the daily goal that you set for yourself.
@@impalassz57 It was during the pandemic on a the Tuesday the first stimulus check dropped. Everyone and their Momma’s were out shopping and dining. 😅 I had a 3rd row at the time so the XL rides were all that I accepted.
52 hrs online for the week. $1500. You have to know where the people are in need of rides. You have to know what areas have more retail workers, warehouse and all that. Once you know the market, you make more.
I'm in this guy's same market....I haven't gotten streak bonuses in awhile. The driver challenges come 50/50. And the zone bonus disappear just as soon as I arrive.
Yep, Lyft does this when they need a driver for ONE ride in a particular area~ 20 drivers will chase after it and the bonus will disappear just before the first driver gets there~
Not all people are doing this full time.. i just started yesterday part time and this video actually has a lot of good info.. if anything I think Lyft needs to make a bigger effort training the drivers, videos geared towards Lyft drivers and making the most money. At the end of the day, that’s why we are doing this in the first place. As a new sign on, I feel like I should’nt have to go to RUclips to figure out the straightest path to success.. good vibes to all ✌🏼 thanks for the video
True and I agree about the tutorials aside from what they already provide,but making the most money tutorial tuh I wouldn’t hold my breath on it. But over time you’ll either love it or hate it once your hip to their schemes, I was hip 4 months into and to date I’ve only been driving with them for almost 9months now. They will take more from you before they give, so them showing you how to get more of THEIR money mmm not so sure lol. They want you to be a bit lost in the sauce.
Don't do this lyft driving, lyft takes about 50%-65% of money from drivers, drivers pay gas, wash car, changing oli, tires, have all risks during the driving. Lyft does only finger work and have some phone calls. Last 3days, they gave me only 19$ per hours for sure.
I had 2 weeks with streak bonuses and ride challenges in Dallas - I was Making BANK! Finally the new CEO giving back to DRIVERS! 🎉 Then 💀 Challenges & Streaks GONE!! Called them and they said it’s driver based. They only offer if you haven’t been working. Back to square one with this horrible Bait & Switch Bull$#%
Platinum driver here in NJ. Ever since Lyft did there recent update I don’t see no more surge in my areas , no streaks only streak zones once in a blue on late nights only which sucks, long pick ups, also I noticed I’m not getting paid extra for customers on being late during pick ups. It’s sad how hard they have us burning ourselves out and making it super hard to earn every dollar we earn. Multiple strategies I tried but still a challenge. There’s days I only average 19$-22$ 😏💩 blows. Lyft needs to better.
I drive in NJ also Central Area.. I make about 300 day consistently.. trying to avoid tolls hitting south Jersey for my first 100 (Trenton) then princeton area for 50 -70 and Brunswick/bridgewater for 100 or more taking whatever...
@@JR-90 try finding an area with a smaller transit system outside the city area where people rely on lyft/uber more and no major tolls.. Btw my tolls are also around 500 or 600 a month but I'm making between $5k and $7 depending on how much my goal it.. lately it's been 240 a day plus whatever I make going home as next day gas money.. 240 times 7 days is $1700 roughly.. 1700 times 4 weeks a month is $6700.. it's doable..
It's all about YOUR MARKET, TIME OF YEAR, and knowing WHEN AND WHERE to be to get those kind of requests! Come to my market and see if you can do the same! I doubt it!
Lyft was unpleasant I worked with my 8year old daughter and had riders detroy my carpet window tint curse fight smoke and my account was deactivated just because I worked as a single mother with my daughter having no help nor support and that broke us down and left of struggling and homeless 🧐🧐🧐🧐Lyft only support the riders bad behavior and did not treat me like I was part of the Lyft company
Awesome video! I also discovered this technique a few weeks ago in my local area. It works extremely well. I have 3 filters I can use through out the day so I used all of them with the ‘stay within area’ of a 5 mile radius. Almost doubled the money I made without the filter and I used only 1/3 of the gas I usually would have used within a 9 hour period. Thanks for sharing your valuable tips with the timeshare community! Video was very well put together! Props to you my friend.
@@ryanmozert the filters are built into the Lyft driver app. It’s the upper right corner; the 3 or 4 lines. Touch this and you will see the filters you can choose from. You only have 2 filters to use within a 24 hr period if you are silver. Gold, you jump up to 3 filters per 24 hr period. “Stay within Area” is the filter that is very cost effective for saving gas. I set mine to a 5 mile radius and you will stay within that 5 miles for 3 hrs/ filter. So you can stay in that 5 mile radius for a 6 hr timeframe if you choose
You know what else makes it really difficult to double up on streak bonuses? When they don’t even offer streak bonuses I haven’t seen one in at least six months. And ride challenges? Been at least a year since I saw one of those and I drive full-time. Please stop calling this a strategy. My guess is you only get these because you make these videos. Making this propaganda for a company that doesn’t offer this to hardly any of its drivers they didn’t even offer streak bonuses where concerts are
This totally depends on your market. Lyft gave up on my market years ago. No streak bonus,surge $2 tops at the airport. This only applies to the largest cities. Your strategy is avoid grid lock traffic for concerts and major events by using a filter. 🤔 8 mins lost. Like your energy though👍
Kind of odd because I use to always get streak bonus when I first started. Some odd reason Lyft hasn't given me any for a few months now. Additionally, I use your filter exactly like you but where I live we don't get as much traffic as your big city there. Rarely do we every see anything go over $5 bonus
I love this guys videos but I couldn't agree more. It's city dependent and also doesn't tell you how to actually do it. It just explains results. It's only half of the equation.
I happened to use this strategy before I caught this video and it works. I made $75 in the first 45 mins last Monday. It slowed down after because longer rides in rush hour kill the hot time.
How about the fact that there should never be a ride only paying out three dollars as the base! I drive during the daytime so I cannot get a lot of driving bonuses because I’m a single mom and I can only drive when my kid is in school so this video is a little bit irrelevant to me
If I were in your shoes, I'd partner with other single moms and take turns watching each other's kids. Even doing this one weekend a month can have a significant impact and give you some financial breathing room. The more restrictions you have to work with the more creative you'll have to get. I'm rooting for you.
Today was the first day in a while driving Lyft in San Francisco, CA for the start of fleet week. Didn't do to bad, 15 rides for $173. Wish it could be like that everyday, instead of all the small $4.50 rides
They do not do the ride streaks anymore so this will not work! Better to ride the surges! If they are paying trash money don't accept it! Go home and take a nap.
Thanks for the good hints. My "stay within an area" does not seem to last for 3 hours, and it also seems like it uses 2 location filters without me acknowledging the second. I don't like to drive without a filter, Charleston is nice but I don't want to drive there on a Tuesday afternoon. Any hints about managing the "stay within an area" feature? I am a platinum driver in Charlotte NC.
Some viewers have said that if you change the size of it or move it around, it consumes a usage. Also, of you take a ride on the map that puts you outside the filter, it'll negate the filter.
I'm making more money now than I did back when I made this video. Don't worry, I'll share how soon. I share how much I make LIVE on the podcast every Tuesday at 3 PM EST. Come drop by if you don't believe it.
I don’t see any of these bonuses all I see are those 12 minute rides for three dollars which in my opinion I think I’d make more money selling oranges on the corner of the street. I just started driving for Lyft and honestly it mostly doesn’t make any sense and I see zero bonuses so I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
Not everyone will like it but they statistically lead to higher video retention. I've made videos with little editing that don't get watched because viewers find them boring.
Lyft is horrible in my market. Even the streak bonus...does not bring a person up to $1 plus per mile. This how they pay in tulsa oklahoma no streak let's say 10 miles to go get then 10 miles to destination lyft shoots a price of 7 or 8 dollars. Then same ride with a streak pay about 9 or 11. They have lost their mind 20 miles should not pay less than 20.00 No rideshare should expect you to pick up for free and only get paid to take to destination. Not every market pays like this.
Thanks for the video. I signed up for Lyft this past weekend. Looking to know the ins and outs to make the best. Appreciate some recommended videos. Ive driven for uber in the past, worst ever. At least with lyft, will see my destination and total payout!! Uber sucks
LYFT IS ALL CONS AND NO PROS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU NEVER MAKE AN ACTUAL PROFIT WITH DRIVER-APP JOBS!!!! POSITIVITY WITHOUT WISDOM CAN YIELD THE SAME RESULTS AS NEGATIVITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you please make a video on how you schedule your day in advance? I can see different events in my area, but how will I know where the streaks or streak areas will occur? Brand new rideshare driver
We don't get streak bonuses in this market however everything else that he is saying is true. You should know exactly where and when surges are going to happen every day. For example on Mondays if there are regular surges that happened between 7:00 and 8:00 then you know that every Monday it's going to Surge at that same place between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m.
You truly deserve the streak bonuses. The key to making more $$ within the hour is by taking more rides, but this is in reality a LOT more work cause you deal with 10 riders instead of 1 rider (for drivers with longer trip rides). So at the end, your hassle is paid for handsomely. It is FAIR. Lyft and Uber need to offer these streak bonuses cause short rides are not that attractive to take. Without the bonus, most drivers don't want to take these $6, $8 rides when they can take $20 rides that are equally profitable per mile per minute.
Lyft Priority Mode Pays Less!! Today I sat in surge zones for over an hour, I did not get 1 ride! When I finally turned on Priority mode, OMG!!!! Its a miracle! A ride popped up. Us Drivers need to pull together... I've been a rideshare driver now for 8 years. Without us they wont have a business. just something to think about. If you read the info on Lyft it says they pay you less, but you get more rides. That means Drivers will drive more and SPEND More Money on Gas and Put More Miles on Your Vehicle! Drivers, lets say NO to Lyft! If Drivers STOP using Priority Mode Lyft will be forced to close the mode. Or at the very least use it and then end after each ride. I do this a lot anyways so I can find a close by surge opportunity. Thanks for reading, Rochelle
Surges? I have never seen a surge for more than $5.50 and it lasted like a minute. If even $3 surges, they come and go so fast. It's not worth moving anywhere. Your market is very different.
Dude... your area just doesn't have a lot of drivers. I'm surprised if I see $5 surge pricing in Newark/Jersey City NJ! we NEVER see pink areas with $12. Those surge areas mean there hasn't been a driver in the area for such an extended amount of time that they feel they need to offer $12. Plus... have you even heard of "Priority" mode?? I wouldn't be surprised if you haven't. Priority mode forces hordes of drivers to take diminished rates in exchange for "more" rides. If you don't use Priority Mode you keep regular rates but you're last to get booked. People think your fake cause they don't get that you're in a perfect storm of a market. maybe you should try driving in NJ for 2 weeks just as an experiment and see what you think
I've never seen a streak over 10.00? actually I haven't seen any streak in over 3 month'? 😆Take the small runs and stay within' a 5 mile radius. Your time can make you money or cost you money! your gas can make you money or cost you money. When I first stated I got 29.00 ride it was so far and wasted my time! in the old cab days that would have easily been a 75.00 ride.
Go through bonus zone must accept next ride without going offline and the algorithm knocks you offline from the Lyft driver app and you go back on and the bonus is gone and a $3 ride is given to you. Or bonus zones pop up and you drive immediately as quickly and safely as possible and just before you enter it disappears 😂
I’ve been doing this ever since the introduction of that filter. Especially when it’s raining. I also do it for ride challenges and ride guarantees. About to brace myself for a change now that you are sharing this info.
Sometimes even I feel this way, especially when I first started making videos. There's a lot of drivers out there and I'm just a small fish in a very big pond. On top of that, I share a lot of information but a lot of people who watch it, don't use it. I've shared cheat codes in my city's Uber/Lyft group and even though I show proof, they don't listen to me. I think we'll be okay.
@@FutureRideshareMillionaire is there a way to get in contact with you. Im in los angeles and im just getting wrecked out here, i could use some help, please man
Imma stop u there streak and challenges lol We haven't had streaks in 3 months. And u get that many rides an hour and that much in bonus lol. Move over here your not even close more like 17hr
I haven't had streaks in a few months but this strategy is still used. I don't make as much as when I had streaks but I still make more money using this strategy at busy hours than not using this strategy. It also saves a lot of money on gas and wear and tear. I average $25 - $30 without strategy and $35-$40 with strategy.
FOR 30 MINS DRIVE, AVERAGE IF $12 DOLLARS. I REALLY WISH THIS WAS TRUE BUT IT'S NOT. YOU WILL WORK HARD AS HELL TO EARN THAT MONEY. THESE COMPANIES USE DRIVERS ...PLUS YOU HAVE TO BE DESPERATE TO DO LYFT OR UBER. IF YOU LOOK AT WEAR OF YOUR CAR, GAS, AND YOUR TIME, IT'S JUST NOT PROFITABLE. JUST BE PREPARED TO BE USED WELL WELL BY LYFT AND UBER.
THIS IS BS---I DRIVE FOR LYFT....AVERAGE IS 20 BUCKS PER HOUR WITH LYFT. THEIR ALGORITHY MAKES IT HARD TO MAKE OVER 20 DOLLARS AN HOURS. I MOSTLY DRIVE IN BALTIMORE MD. TOTAL BS
This actually may work, But when u work for a company or with a company,something too good to be true is. If they are letting ridiculous rates go,that can't keep happening because it's not a legitimate business model that will have a long shelf life..the longer you see it going on,the more disturbing it should become to all of us.. We just all want far pay,we definitely need the parent company to be profitable,but we don't want them taking losses.its not a positive sign for the future of that company. If u got to play a game to make money, that ain't good either. Working and both company and drivers being profitable long term is all we should desire
Naw. Literally no one's rates are higher than people who drive in NYC. I make .80 cents per mile and you make like 1.75 dollars per mile. If you're not having success, I'd strongly suggest reevaluating your strategy.
I am a new driver as of about a month ago and I was unfairly deactivated the other night. I have a 5 star rating & high driving score and yet a couple unfair passenger complaints got me deactivated. I have a clean criminal record and clean driving record and yet, Lyft is unfairly terminating me over a couple complaints. It's like my driving record and my Lyft ranking all mean nothing. They refuse to even tell me what the complaints were or which passengers left the complaints. I reached out to 2 support agents and they both gave me no information and refused to reactivate me. I ALWAYS drive safely and make sure everyone has their seatbelt on. Is anyone able to help me or point ne in the right direction? I have looked forward to doing Lyft for years & it is my only source of income. I am heartbroken, stressed, and confused.
I'm so sorry you're going through this. I went through the same thing, twice! The only thing that saved me was having a dashcam. I'm assuming you didn't have one?
I drove uber x 8 yrs 28,000 passengers till customers lied over 10 x and I got banned for life from uber x and eats , but I won a good chunk of $. I have 5,000 rides in lyft 5.5 yrs still active, I haven't driven lyft , I was grub hubbing 2yrs and got deactivated for life due to lies for free meals , doordash I got banned for life after 3 months. Amazon flex I'm about to get deactivated 😂, all gig jobs are mickey mouse 🐭 now. Not worth it anymore none! Los Angeles jammed all day night everything but they don't care about that
So, you didn't mention anything about your social skills. When you make sure people put their seatbelt on are you being a dick about it? Cause your social skills are gonna be the biggest factor in whether or not people complain.
@@FutureRideshareMillionaire New Jersey. After a 24-36 hour delay to "study" my question, I was told that the Zones were (simply) discontinued. I am told that I would be informed via email if that changes. Not holding by breath on that one. I looked around Reddit a bit and saw some similar Jersey-related responses.
@@glennscheyhing Honestly I believe is Uber and Lyft making sure they cut cost in certain areas so they can use that to pay other in area's where cost of living is higher. Essentially like how Uncle Sam operates with our taxes.

They've been having issues connecting to the Lyft app over the last week. I'm going to put a video together explaining what's happening but I think I'm going to take down my referral links until they get it figured out.

Ohh, btw. If you're selfish, just say that. I'm not 😉
I dont get streak bonuses or surge areas and the streak bonuses are only like 4 bucks thats nothing and im gold almost platinum
I don’t see any of these bonuses all I see are those 12 minute rides for three dollars which in my opinion I think I’d make more money selling oranges on the corner of the street. I just started driving for Lyft and honestly it mostly doesn’t make any sense and I see zero bonuses so I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
All the bouncing words, zooming, swishing, and other effects just make it annoying as hell to try to watch.
Not everyone will like it but they statistically lead to higher video retention. I've made videos with little editing that don't get watched because viewers find them boring.
You are full of it
As a Lyft driver this is very hard to do and it’s always a gamble caused people take forever to come out to the car killing the bonus time zone
Lyft is horrible in my market. Even the streak bonus...does not bring a person up to $1 plus per mile.
This how they pay in tulsa oklahoma no streak let's say 10 miles to go get then 10 miles to destination lyft shoots a price of 7 or 8 dollars. Then same ride with a streak pay about 9 or 11.
They have lost their mind 20 miles should not pay less than 20.00
No rideshare should expect you to pick up for free and only get paid to take to destination. Not every market pays like this.
Thanks for the video. I signed up for Lyft this past weekend. Looking to know the ins and outs to make the best. Appreciate some recommended videos. Ive driven for uber in the past, worst ever. At least with lyft, will see my destination and total payout!! Uber sucks
Is this even real
It's the matrix.
LYFT IS ALL CONS AND NO PROS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU NEVER MAKE AN ACTUAL PROFIT WITH DRIVER-APP JOBS!!!!
POSITIVITY WITHOUT WISDOM CAN YIELD THE SAME RESULTS AS NEGATIVITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you please make a video on how you schedule your day in advance? I can see different events in my area, but how will I know where the streaks or streak areas will occur? Brand new rideshare driver
We don't get streak bonuses in this market however everything else that he is saying is true. You should know exactly where and when surges are going to happen every day. For example on Mondays if there are regular surges that happened between 7:00 and 8:00 then you know that every Monday it's going to Surge at that same place between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m.
You truly deserve the streak bonuses. The key to making more $$ within the hour is by taking more rides, but this is in reality a LOT more work cause you deal with 10 riders instead of 1 rider (for drivers with longer trip rides). So at the end, your hassle is paid for handsomely. It is FAIR. Lyft and Uber need to offer these streak bonuses cause short rides are not that attractive to take. Without the bonus, most drivers don't want to take these $6, $8 rides when they can take $20 rides that are equally profitable per mile per minute.
Lyft Priority Mode Pays Less!!
Today I sat in surge zones for over an hour, I did not get 1 ride! When I finally turned on Priority mode, OMG!!!! Its a miracle! A ride popped up. Us Drivers need to pull together...
I've been a rideshare driver now for 8 years. Without us they wont have a business. just something to think about.
If you read the info on Lyft it says they pay you less, but you get more rides. That means Drivers will drive more and SPEND More Money on Gas and Put More Miles on Your Vehicle!
Drivers, lets say NO to Lyft!
If Drivers STOP using Priority Mode Lyft will be forced to close the mode. Or at the very least use it and then end after each ride. I do this a lot anyways so I can find a close by surge opportunity.
Thanks for reading,
Rochelle
Surges? I have never seen a surge for more than $5.50 and it lasted like a minute. If even $3 surges, they come and go so fast. It's not worth moving anywhere. Your market is very different.
Great video! Thanks for sharing. I've been doing this strategy before I watched your video and it works very well
Up untill 6.12mins all he said was this strategy, this strategy, this strategy. I can't subscribe to your channel with that much waste of time.
Dude... your area just doesn't have a lot of drivers. I'm surprised if I see $5 surge pricing in Newark/Jersey City NJ! we NEVER see pink areas with $12. Those surge areas mean there hasn't been a driver in the area for such an extended amount of time that they feel they need to offer $12. Plus... have you even heard of "Priority" mode?? I wouldn't be surprised if you haven't. Priority mode forces hordes of drivers to take diminished rates in exchange for "more" rides. If you don't use Priority Mode you keep regular rates but you're last to get booked. People think your fake cause they don't get that you're in a perfect storm of a market. maybe you should try driving in NJ for 2 weeks just as an experiment and see what you think
Yeah good luck with that 😆.
Drivers. Please stop blasting your fav salsa merengue, rock, gospel, country music. When customer is in their music preferences come first.
I've never seen a streak over 10.00? actually I haven't seen any streak in over 3 month'? 😆Take the small runs and stay within' a 5 mile radius. Your time can make you money or cost you money! your gas can make you money or cost you money. When I first stated I got 29.00 ride it was so far and wasted my time! in the old cab days that would have easily been a 75.00 ride.
I don't agree with an app making 47,000 off of driver in 1 year still pretty expensive app to use
Go through bonus zone must accept next ride without going offline and the algorithm knocks you offline from the Lyft driver app and you go back on and the bonus is gone and a $3 ride is given to you. Or bonus zones pop up and you drive immediately as quickly and safely as possible and just before you enter it disappears 😂
I stopped watching after the second "you may think I'm doing this for clicks and likes".
That kind of speech has infomercial BS all over it
Can disability people use a lyft app for transportation to go to the shelter about adult abuse,when people call 211,I'm living with disability.
Dude lol this is such a useless video. Not everyone gets bonuses. This is just a bragging video cuz you’re getting them
This dude talks to much. Get to the point next time. I’ll find another video to watch
But lyft does not give bouns $ any more. Oh wait, yeah, the 4 dollar bonus from 3 - 4 AM in an area with a population of 1200
I’ve been doing this ever since the introduction of that filter. Especially when it’s raining. I also do it for ride challenges and ride guarantees. About to brace myself for a change now that you are sharing this info.
Sometimes even I feel this way, especially when I first started making videos.
There's a lot of drivers out there and I'm just a small fish in a very big pond.
On top of that, I share a lot of information but a lot of people who watch it, don't use it. I've shared cheat codes in my city's Uber/Lyft group and even though I show proof, they don't listen to me.
I think we'll be okay.
...or hot...or cold. Basically any weather that makes riding a bike or walking or scooter inconvenient or uncomfortable.
@@FutureRideshareMillionairehey!! how much did you pay to Uber/Lyft through out the year in 2022 when you file your taxes
@@FutureRideshareMillionaire is there a way to get in contact with you. Im in los angeles and im just getting wrecked out here, i could use some help, please man
@@FutureRideshareMillionaire like do you have ig? Somewhere i can dm you and ask questions?
Imma stop u there streak and challenges lol
We haven't had streaks in 3 months. And u get that many rides an hour and that much in bonus lol. Move over here your not even close more like 17hr
I haven't had streaks in a few months but this strategy is still used. I don't make as much as when I had streaks but I still make more money using this strategy at busy hours than not using this strategy. It also saves a lot of money on gas and wear and tear.
I average $25 - $30 without strategy and $35-$40 with strategy.
FOR 30 MINS DRIVE, AVERAGE IF $12 DOLLARS. I REALLY WISH THIS WAS TRUE BUT IT'S NOT. YOU WILL WORK HARD AS HELL TO EARN THAT MONEY. THESE COMPANIES USE DRIVERS ...PLUS YOU HAVE TO BE DESPERATE TO DO LYFT OR UBER. IF YOU LOOK AT WEAR OF YOUR CAR, GAS, AND YOUR TIME, IT'S JUST NOT PROFITABLE. JUST BE PREPARED TO BE USED WELL WELL BY LYFT AND UBER.
Who the fuck is seeing 15$ zones!!!!! Im in atlanta and things have been shitty lately byt over all good advice. Will try
THIS IS BS---I DRIVE FOR LYFT....AVERAGE IS 20 BUCKS PER HOUR WITH LYFT. THEIR ALGORITHY MAKES IT HARD TO MAKE OVER 20 DOLLARS AN HOURS. I MOSTLY DRIVE IN BALTIMORE MD. TOTAL BS
Bahahahaha 😂 sure thing buddy
This actually may work,
But when u work for a company or with a company,something too good to be true is.
If they are letting ridiculous rates go,that can't keep happening because it's not a legitimate business model that will have a long shelf life..the longer you see it going on,the more disturbing it should become to all of us..
We just all want far pay,we definitely need the parent company to be profitable,but we don't want them taking losses.its not a positive sign for the future of that company.
If u got to play a game to make money, that ain't good either.
Working and both company and drivers being profitable long term is all we should desire
Why your rate are so high even without the bonus . I’m in nyc, every 1 dollar I made average every min.
Naw. Literally no one's rates are higher than people who drive in NYC. I make .80 cents per mile and you make like 1.75 dollars per mile.
If you're not having success, I'd strongly suggest reevaluating your strategy.
I never see anything related to challenges in my area. This video is a year old. Lyft must have changed so much.
I am a new driver as of about a month ago and I was unfairly deactivated the other night. I have a 5 star rating & high driving score and yet a couple unfair passenger complaints got me deactivated. I have a clean criminal record and clean driving record and yet, Lyft is unfairly terminating me over a couple complaints. It's like my driving record and my Lyft ranking all mean nothing. They refuse to even tell me what the complaints were or which passengers left the complaints. I reached out to 2 support agents and they both gave me no information and refused to reactivate me. I ALWAYS drive safely and make sure everyone has their seatbelt on. Is anyone able to help me or point ne in the right direction? I have looked forward to doing Lyft for years & it is my only source of income. I am heartbroken, stressed, and confused.
I'm so sorry you're going through this. I went through the same thing, twice! The only thing that saved me was having a dashcam.
I'm assuming you didn't have one?
I drove uber x 8 yrs 28,000 passengers till customers lied over 10 x and I got banned for life from uber x and eats , but I won a good chunk of $. I have 5,000 rides in lyft 5.5 yrs still active, I haven't driven lyft , I was grub hubbing 2yrs and got deactivated for life due to lies for free meals , doordash I got banned for life after 3 months. Amazon flex I'm about to get deactivated 😂, all gig jobs are mickey mouse 🐭 now. Not worth it anymore none! Los Angeles jammed all day night everything but they don't care about that
So, you didn't mention anything about your social skills. When you make sure people put their seatbelt on are you being a dick about it? Cause your social skills are gonna be the biggest factor in whether or not people complain.
We don't get bonus here. We get paid crap. If it ever gets to $1 a mile we are lucky.
How did you drive 14hrs when you’re only allowed to drive 12hrs?
Streak Bonuses are not offered in my area. Also, Bonus/Power Zones have been discontinued in my State as of 4 days ago.
What state and why were they discontinued!?
@@FutureRideshareMillionaire New Jersey. After a 24-36 hour delay to "study" my question, I was told that the Zones were (simply) discontinued. I am told that I would be informed via email if that changes. Not holding by breath on that one. I looked around Reddit a bit and saw some similar Jersey-related responses.
@@glennscheyhing Honestly I believe is Uber and Lyft making sure they cut cost in certain areas so they can use that to pay other in area's where cost of living is higher. Essentially like how Uncle Sam operates with our taxes.
Lee Michelle Jones Elizabeth Hernandez David
He is showing the only third rides that he completed in the row. He don’t show the first and second rides only the 3 out of 3 rides completed. Where is the first and the second rides
Lyft is very SUS. they don't show us how much the passengers pay. Uber shows what the passengers paid.
I goy paid from lyft 1.30 cents. Lyft took the rest. Not worth it
To much talking go to the pount
I have never heard of Streak bonus. They do percentages here during that hour.
Im going thru 2:25 min... I bet hes gonna sell me those "strategy" and wont even mention it in the whole video... lets see
All apps off valentine's day 2024 . Strike announced
It worked I got my 4th ride and my streak started ag😢… thank you ❤
This is old...have not seen a streak bonus in 2024
it sounds all dandy unfortunately not every city , county . state has live events like others do, and since school started its a little harder. But good video though! 👍
Perez Jennifer Miller Melissa Jones Elizabeth
Great Video!!! Thanks also for the Skeddy referral but it won’t let me create an account. Does it not work with iPhone? I used your link and also downloaded the app and the validation code will not work.
They've been having issues connecting to the Lyft app over the last week. I'm going to put a video together explaining what's happening but I think I'm going to take down my referral links until they get it figured out.
Good information as always Tristan!
Bean driven lyft and uber over 10 years I never see that is be come
he spent like 6:30 minutes to start actually talking about the strategy, but it was worth it i guess
Every time I head to one it changed
oh i see.. i suppose you could use para for the same technique on different apps!😊
I speeded up your video, but still feel like wasting time
They no longer do Streaks now it’s turbo and bonus hour
Wonder why they took the streaks away? Lyft is shitty without them
Haha no driver makes this money , Lyft is paying you for doing so !!!
Every week, I go live, and I show my earnings. Here's a clip from my last live: ruclips.net/video/Fcu-3sxp6yc/видео.htmlsi=HpYC2aZ04IRL53Xc
If that's not enough proof to make you think otherwise, you've probably already decided to be biased no matter what.
He is showing the only third rides that he completed in the row. He don’t show the first and second rides only the 3 out of 3 rides completed. Where is the first and the second rides
What's your point? If you're trying to accuse me of something, say what You're accusing me of so I can prove you wrong.
@@FutureRideshareMillionaire well not accusing u of anything probably u do make that money cause of the location , I,m in the dc aria n no matter what I do I never get to make that money with Lyft , the platform is always playing u . It is very hard for me , cause u have to deal with traffic , people , on top of that , u have to be constantly fighting the tricks the platform plays on you !!!
Never seen any streak bonus and i just started a month ago(already at elite status)
I haven’t had a streak bonus in over a year 😂
Still didn't explain the strategy
The more I earn, the more they take away, exceeding what I've earned.
