No fewer than 600 top-performing drivers of the global mobility and urban services platform, inDrive, will receive insurance coverage in the newly introduced loyalty programme in partnership with My cover Genius.
The enhanced Platinum Tier reward scheme is part of the company’s driver support initiatives designed to recognise excellence, promote safety and security on the roads.
It reflects inDrive’s ongoing effort to challenge industry norms and foster a more equitable ride-hailing ecosystem—one that is fair, rewards excellence, and supports economic mobility for drivers.
The successful expansion of the programme relies heavily on strategic local partnerships, which provide added value, with inDrive reiterating that no new city rollout will occur without these partnerships in place, ensuring that the loyalty program remains both impactful and sustainable.
The loyalty scheme currently operates with two goal structures: weekly goals with weekly tier updates, as implemented in locations such as Lagos, and monthly goals with monthly tier updates, which are currently in the testing phase.
The new Platinum Tier initiative will reward the top drivers who consistently meet performance benchmarks. In Lagos, for example, the weekly target to qualify is 25 completed rides.
Drivers who achieve Platinum status receive a range of premium benefits, including lower service payments, which allow them to keep most of what they make.
In addition, they will get first access to ride requests, enabling them to view passenger requests before other drivers and get more ride opportunities.
Further, they will enjoy high-priority customer support on any issues to minimise downtime and stay productive, as well as exclusive partner bonuses like discounts from partners (Car Insurance and Vehicle maintenance) to cut their costs and boost your income
“Our drivers are more than just partners; they’re the backbone of our service. By introducing the Platinum Tier and providing insurance to hundreds of drivers, we are taking real steps toward recognising performance while also improving security and peace of mind,” the Country representative of inDrive in Nigeria, Mr Timothy Oladimeji, stated.
