How it works
One counter, one flat fee, then it resets
Earn
Every ride subtotal is paid to you in full and counts toward your next $1,000.
Hit $1,000, pay $79.99
The subscription comes out of earnings you already have. Nothing upfront, HST included.
Reset and repeat
The counter returns to zero. The $1.50 platform fee is added to the rider's fare, never taken from yours.

The math · run your own numbers
Same driver, same fares, different math
| Per month | Traditional platform | Flot Economy |
|---|---|---|
| Fares before HST | $4,000.00 | $4,000.00 |
| Commission | -$1,600.00 | $0.00 |
| Subscription ($79.99 per $1,000) | n/a | -$319.96 |

Estimate assumes 4 weeks a month and Economy pricing ($79.99 per $1,000 earned, HST included). Traditional take rate is the NELP July 2025 average; individual rides reach 65%. Before vehicle costs and income tax.
For riders
Every fee on the receipt, nothing buried in the total
Your receipt shows the ride, Flot's platform fee, card processing and HST as separate lines. You can see exactly what your driver earns.
