How to read these prices

These are the estimates Bolt shows on its own route pages for each category. They are not a rate card: Bolt does not publish one for Kenya, and the price in the app changes with traffic, the time of day and how many riders are waiting. Use them to compare trips and categories, not as a promise.

What the driver keeps

Out of every fare Bolt takes its commission — 18% since 2022, a cap the High Court suspended in September 2026 — and the driver pays fuel and, if the car is not theirs, a daily amount to the owner. See what is left with the driver earnings calculator.

Own the car? Gariboss collects the daily amount into your own M-Pesa till and tells you every evening who paid. Work out a fair daily amount.
