How Much Do Rideshare Drivers Make in Regina SK?

This is the first question every prospective rideshare driver in Regina asks, and most answers online are out of date. With GoHive live on the Apple App Store since April 2026 and running a zero-commission subscription model, the math has genuinely changed — but it changed in a specific way, and it rewards volume. Here are the real numbers, computed from GoHive's published fare structure, not estimates.

Average earnings per trip

On a typical 3.8 km, 12-minute Regina trip:

• GoHive Captain: $7.95 take-home — the full driver fare ($2.00 base + $4.75 distance + $1.20 time). GoHive takes zero commission.
• Uber driver: roughly $6.54 take-home — about half of the $12.65 the rider paid, after Uber's commission and fees.

That is about $1.40 more per trip on GoHive, before subscription costs — roughly $113 more across an 80-trip week, $141 across a 100-trip week.

GoHive vs Uber driver earnings

GoHive replaces percentage commission with a flat subscription: pay a fixed fee, keep 100% of every dollar above it.

• Daily: $20/day — for occasional days behind the wheel
• Weekly: $100/week (about $14.30/day)
• Monthly: $250/month (about $11.40/day over 22 working days)
• Free trial: 7 days at launch — every dollar is take-home

Because the fee is flat, there is a crossover point. Below it, a commission platform can net you more; above it, GoHive wins on every additional trip. At Regina trip economics that crossover is roughly 8 trips a day on the monthly plan, about 10 on the weekly plan — and past it, the gap only grows.

Daily earnings breakdown

GoHive figures are gross — subtract your plan (about $11.40/day on monthly). At 5 trips a day, Uber's commission model still nets more. At 10 trips the two are effectively even. At 15 trips a GoHive captain on the monthly plan nets about $108 a day versus $98 on Uber, and at 20 trips about $148 versus $131 — every trip past the crossover is pure gain.

Monthly income projections

For a captain on the monthly plan ($250) working 22 days a month, at the typical Regina trip rate:

• 12 trips/day: $2,099 gross → $1,849 net on GoHive, versus about $1,727 on Uber — $122 more per month
• 15 trips/day: $2,624 gross → $2,374 net, versus about $2,158 on Uber — $215 more
• 20 trips/day: $3,498 gross → $3,248 net, versus about $2,878 on Uber — $370 more

The pattern is the point: on a commission platform, driving more means handing over more. On GoHive the platform's take is capped at the subscription, so every extra trip is 100% yours.

How the subscription model works

The subscription replaces per-trip commission entirely. Nothing is deducted from any fare; the flat fee is billed on a daily, weekly, or monthly cadence and captains can switch tiers any time without penalty. The 7-day launch free trial gives every new captain a full week with zero subscription cost — meaning every dollar of driver fare during the trial is take-home.

Is rideshare driving worth it in Regina?

The honest answer in 2026 depends on your volume.

• 4 trips a day or fewer → marginal on either platform.
• 5–9 trips a day → Uber's commission model is slightly more forgiving; GoHive's weekly plan roughly matches it by the top of this range.
• 10+ trips a day → GoHive's flat-fee model pulls ahead and the lead compounds with every additional trip. Full-time drivers see the biggest gains.

For anyone treating rideshare as a primary income in Regina, GoHive is the stronger economic structure in 2026 — and the 7-day free trial means you can verify these numbers with your own driving before paying anything. Apply to drive and see for yourself.
