Title: Free Now - Get Paid For Every Stop (VAT FREE!)
Post by: Rat Catcher on May 28, 2025, 10:35:14 am
Junk mail from Free Now:

GET PAID FOR EVERY STOP
Multiple Stops is here! Passengers can add up to 4 stops per trip—and, you’ll get paid for every stop.


WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT:
• Get rewarded for every stop along the way
• Plan your trips better with all stops visible upfront
• Optimised navigation for a smoother ride
• No surprises, with all stops visible during your trip

HOW IT WORKS:
• The offer card will show if a trip has multiple stops
• Navigation will guide you through all stops in the right order
• Multiple stop trips require our in-app navigation, but you can still use Waze for single-stop trips
• If a stop is cancelled, just tap ‘Go to next stop’ and keep moving
• Job done!

Update your app to version 12.87.0 to start earning on multi-stop trips.

DON’T MISS UPDATES
Now you can change the app language! Simply go to Menu (☰) > Settings > Language to make the switch and stay informed in the language you’re most comfortable with.

I don't understand this.  Who would book a 4-stop trip in advance?

You get people going into town that might say, "stop at a bank so I can get some money, than a Spar so I can buy smokes, then town.  Thanks bud."  What's different about this offer and who is the customer that needs it?

Cool!  Now you can switch between Irish and English as you see fit.  Great idea  :P

Not guaranteed.... unlike Uber.... although, to be fair, I got paid for the last non payer they gave me (West Kilmore - Clongriffin) after 26 emails chasing the 15c commission I was charged on the €1.00 fare I had to enter to clear the job.

A pyrrhic victory, well done.

HERE is the only line to take note of ... Multiple stop trips require our in-app navigation, but you can still use Waze for single-stop trips ..WE are TAXI DRIVERS WE choose the way .They are pissed off that we take SHORTER or Longer routes .They will impose a requirement on drivers to follow the Route they choose not your Professional Decision .

Do I remember that Vandriver said, that if you switch the navigation to Waze, it does?

Maybe, but if JohnM is right, you have to stick with their maps to get the multi-stop jobs?
