How much can I earn per hour as a driver?
+
Rates vary by country, state, city, and even by the hour. For example, in New York City, you can earn $36.75 per hour. This figure is based on the average earnings of drivers in New York from 06/17/2024 to 07/15/2024. Since the median is the midpoint, you may earn more or less than the average amount. To avoid confusion, drivers are paid based on completed trips, not hourly.
