Blow to Uber and Bolt drivers as court blocks 18pc commission cap
Under Regulation 9, a transport network agreement must provide for a commission payable to the platform that does not exceed 18 percent of total trip earnings.
The High Court has blocked enforcement of an 18 percent commission cap charged on drivers and vehicle owners by ride-hailing platforms, marking a win for operators who had opposed the limit.
The State restricted commission payouts on earnings per trip in 2022 as part of a strategy to protect drivers from high fees, down from previous rates that often reached 25 percent.
