1. What is Flex Pay?

Flex Pay allows you to request a transfer of your earnings on any day of the week, up to twice a day.

2. How do I use Flex Pay?

You can click on the Wallet tab on your Driver App. You can then tap the ‘Cash out’ button and confirm cash out to transfer your earnings to your linked M-Pesa wallet or bank account. Cash outs prior to 4pm to wallets should appear within 6 hours (on the same business day). Cash outs to bank accounts should appear within 3 business days.

3. Why can’t I cash out my earnings?

There may be a few reasons why you’re unable to cash out 

  • You are attempting to cash out more than your earnings  
  • Your payment provider is still processing a previous cash out  
  • Your bank account or mobile wallet account is under review and FlexPay has been temporarily disabled*
  • You have not provided correct account details for example errors in account number

4. What can I cash out?

You will be able to cash out the earnings that are currently in your account at the time of selecting the cash out option.

You will be able to cash out twice a day.

Your cash out must be greater than 500 KES and must not exceed the weekly cash out limit of 20000 KES.

5. Is there a fee to use Flex pay?

Yes,  52 KES  is the standard fee for cash out. There is still the option of  a no fee cash out, where earnings are transferred to you once a week, as per the usual payment cycle.

6. Can I request a cash out whenever I want?

The frequency with which you can request a cash out depends on your earnings and the processing time of your bank. Any earnings which you did not cash out from the previous week will be deposited to your bank account or mobile wallet as usual for no charge. 

7. When can I cash out?

Subject to your earnings balance meeting the minimum transfer amount* and your bank’s processing time, you can cash out twice a day, to your M-Pesa wallet.

8. How much can I cash out?

You will only be able to cash out all trip earnings (and not part) of your earnings.
