Bolt, one of Africa’s leading ride-hailing platforms, has disclosed that its top 50 drivers in Nigeria earned an average of over ₦9.6 million each between January and June 2025, stressing the platform’s growing influence in the country’s gig economy.

This translates to an average monthly income of ₦1.61 million per driver, outpacing the ₦1.2 million monthly average reported by competitor inDrive for the same period.

According to the company, the earnings are based on gross trip revenue, factoring in bonuses and incentives offered to drivers who demonstrate high levels of professionalism, including maintaining strong customer ratings, accepting trip requests regularly, and completing high volumes of rides.

Bolt attributes this performance to its ongoing investment in driver support programmes and operational improvements. Over the past few months, the platform has expanded initiatives aimed at improving driver welfare. 

These include fuel subsidies, enhanced safety features, flexible driving hours, and structured incentive schemes, all while working to ensure a reliable and accessible experience for riders.

Speaking on the development, Osi Oguah, general manager for Bolt Nigeria, said, “At Bolt, we are committed to creating economic opportunities for our driver partners. This report demonstrates that consistent engagement on the platform can yield substantial financial rewards. We remain focused on improving the driver experience and ensuring sustainability in the gig economy.”

The numbers also reiterate the growing appetite for ride-hailing services in Nigeria, particularly in urban centres where mobility challenges persist. With more Nigerians opting for reliable and affordable transport alternatives, Bolt’s role as a mobility enabler continues to deepen.

As of today, Bolt operates in over 600 cities across more than 50 countries, with a user base exceeding 200 million customers globally. Its ecosystem includes ride-hailing, e-scooter and car rentals, food and grocery delivery, and enterprise mobility services. 

In Nigeria, the company has become a cornerstone of flexible employment for thousands of drivers navigating the complexities of a tough economic space.
