Six ways to earn more with a black car

01

Fill the gaps between bookings

Hours spent waiting are hours your car costs money. Pick up a job from another operator to turn them into paid time.

02

Work the airports

Airport transfers are steady work in every big market. See the guides for LAX, SFO, O'Hare and Logan.

03

Don't drive home empty

A drop off far from home often means an unpaid return. Look for a job that starts near where your last ride ends.

04

Say yes to hourly work

Hourly bookings for meetings, events and city tours keep your car paid for the whole block of time, not only the miles.

05

Farm out what you can't cover

Turning a client down sends them to someone else. Post the trip to the network, keep the client and keep them coming back.

06

Plan for the busy weeks

Conventions, big games, award shows and holidays bring more trips than local fleets can handle. Be available when demand peaks.

Chauffeur earnings: FAQ

It depends on how you work. Company chauffeurs earn an hourly wage plus tips. Owner operators charge by the trip or the hour and pay for their own fuel, insurance, permits and vehicle, so what they earn depends on how many of their hours are paid trips.

There is no reliable public average, because it depends on the rates you charge, how many of your hours are paid trips and what your vehicle costs to run. The more of your working hours you fill with paid trips, the more of that rate you keep.

Yes. Uways is free to download and free to join, and it takes no commission on the jobs you drive or the jobs you post.

You are paid by the driver or company that posted the job. Mark the trip as completed in the app once the passenger is dropped off, then request the amount stated in the original offer through Zelle, Venmo, Apple Pay or another method you both agree on. See payments help for the details.

The driver or company posting the job sets the rate. You see the rate, vehicle type, passenger count, route and pickup time before you say you are available, so you only take the jobs that make sense for you.

Farming out means passing a booking you can't cover to another operator so the client is still served. Farming in is the other side: taking work another operator sends you. On Uways you can do both from one app.

Fill the gaps in your schedule with work from other operators, cover airport runs near you, take hourly bookings and plan around busy seasons like conventions and holidays. On Uways, set your mile range and jobs posted near you show up in the app.

Luxury sedans, SUVs and Sprinter class vans. Every job shows the vehicle type it needs before you accept it, and the full list is on the eligible vehicles page.

Usually, yes. The rules depend on the state and city: California requires a TCP permit from the CPUC, New York City requires TLC licensing, and airports set their own rules for commercial pickups. Uways asks for your license, insurance and permits before your first job.
