Driving with Pakka

Buy an allowance. Keep the fare.

While your plan is running there is no per-trip commission. What the customer pays for the trip is what the trip is worth to you.

Two ways this could work. We picked one.

The system supports both. Every plan we sell is the first one, and the difference compounds over a month.

How Pakka works

A plan

You buy an allowance up front — an amount of business you may do inside a window. While it is running, no per-trip commission is taken.

  • The fare is yours
  • Cost is known before the month starts
  • Working harder does not cost you more
The usual way

A commission

A percentage of every fare, taken on every trip, for as long as you drive.

  • Your best day is also your most expensive
  • The cost is invisible until it is deducted
  • You cannot plan against it

What a plan is.

Not a subscription to an app. A prepaid allowance for a fixed window, priced for the vehicle you drive.

  1. Pick a plan for your vehicle

    A two-wheeler and a large truck do very different amounts of work, so they are priced separately.

  2. You get an allowance

    How much business you may do inside the window. The app shows what you have used and what is left.

  3. Drive without commission

    While the plan is active, no per-trip cut is taken from your fares.

  4. Renew when it runs out

    Or let it lapse. Nothing is charged automatically that you did not buy.

Some plans carry a trip allowance alongside the amount, because a bike does far more trips inside the same value than a truck. Where it applies you see it before you buy, and on plans where it never binds you never see it at all.

What you need before your first job.

Seven documents. A person checks them, not a script, and a rejection tells you which one and why.

Driving licenceValid, and for the class of vehicle you will drive.
Vehicle registrationThe RC for the vehicle you are registering.
InsuranceCurrent, for that vehicle.
PANFor payouts and for the tax record.
Profile photographCustomers see who is collecting.
Vehicle photo, frontSo the vehicle that arrives is the vehicle on record.
Vehicle photo, backIncluding the registration plate.
And
  • A bank accountWhere your payouts land. The number is encrypted; screens show only the last four digits.
  • A smartphoneAndroid. The app is shared directly while store review finishes.

Verification moves pending → submitted → approved. You can see which stage you are at, and a rejection names the document.

Your day, as the app sees it.

Four states. You control the first two; the third is a trip; the fourth is one we can set, and you should know it exists.

Every completed trip writes an earning against your account. Nothing is a promise held in someone's head.

  1. Trip completed

    The drop code is verified and proof of delivery is captured.

  2. Earning recorded

    Credited against your account, with the trip attached.

  3. You request a payout

    When you want it, not on someone else's schedule.

  4. It reaches your bank

    To the account you registered.

Your bank account

And when it does not go smoothly

An earning can be disputed or reversed — if a trip is contested, or a payment failed after the fact. Both are visible states on your account rather than money that quietly vanishes.

On cash trips you hold the customer's money on our behalf, and it is settled against your account rather than paid to you twice.

What we owe you.

A platform that only lists a driver's obligations is telling half the story.

  • The fare, before you accept

    You see what the trip pays before you take it. No job is offered blind.

  • A verified customer

    Accounts are real accounts, and a number that has been deleted cannot open a new one.

  • A record of where you went

    The route is kept. If a trip is disputed, it is not your word against theirs.

  • A reason, not a silence

    A rejected document names the document. A suspension comes with a reason.

  • Support that has your booking

    Raise it against the trip and whoever picks it up already has the quote, the route and the payment.

Ratings go both ways.

You are rated after trips. So are the customers. Both records exist and both are used.

You are rated

After every trip. A rating that falls is acted on, and repeated serious problems lead to suspension — which /terms sets out in full.

You rate them

Customers carry a rating too. A customer who wastes your time or behaves badly is a record we hold, not an anecdote you have to relive.

Damage and loss are handled as claims with the proof of delivery and the route record — not as an argument you are expected to win alone. What suspension means, in full.
