Ride-Hailing Firms Gojek, Grab, Maxim, inDrive Announce 2026 Eid Bonuses for Drivers

The Indonesian government confirmed that the 2026 Bonus Hari Raya (BHR) program for ojek online drivers will reach around 850,000 driver-partners with a total allocation of approximately Rp220 billion, following coordination with ride-hailing platform companies (03/03).

Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto said the government encourages the bonus distribution to take place earlier, ideally 14 days before Eid al-Fitr or no later than seven days before the holiday.

“We encourage the distribution [of BHR] to be done earlier, H-14 or at the latest H-7 before Eid al-Fitr,” Airlangga said.

The BHR program is part of the government’s broader economic stimulus package announced on February 10, 2026, which also includes transportation discounts, work-from-anywhere arrangements, and food assistance.

The transportation discount program is valued at Rp911.16 billion and will be provided ahead of the Eid travel period through funding from both the state budget and non-state sources.

In addition, the government has allocated Rp14.09 trillion in food assistance consisting of 10 kilograms of rice and two liters of cooking oil for 35.04 million beneficiary families ahead of the holiday.

The government also introduced a work-from-anywhere policy on March 16, 17, 25, 26, and 27 to help manage mobility during the Eid period.

GoTo Doubles Budget and Announces BHR Distribution for Gojek Drivers

PT GoTo Gojek Tokopedia Tbk announced that its total BHR budget for 2026 has more than doubled compared to the previous year.

The company increased the allocation from Rp50 billion in 2025 to approximately Rp110 billion this year, with the program expected to reach about 400,000 Gojek driver-partners.

Hans Patuwo, President Director and CEO of GoTo, said the program reflects appreciation for drivers who maintain service quality while using the platform as a source of income.

“The Bonus Hari Raya is not just financial support, it also reflects the spirit of togetherness we share with our driver-partners,” Hans said.

He added that the bonus also recognizes driver contributions in maintaining high service standards while supporting the company’s long-term sustainability.

The BHR for Gojek drivers will be distributed through the GoPay Mitra balance between March 4 and March 6, 2026.

Bonus Amounts for Gojek, Grab, Maxim, and inDrive Drivers

For Gojek driver-partners, the BHR amount depends on vehicle type and driver category.

Two-wheel drivers will receive between Rp150,000 and Rp900,000, while four-wheel drivers will receive between Rp200,000 and Rp1.6 million.

The minimum BHR amount has increased significantly compared with the previous year, rising from Rp50,000 in 2025 to Rp150,000 for two-wheel drivers and Rp200,000 for four-wheel drivers in 2026.

Other ride-hailing platforms also provide holiday bonuses with different mechanisms.

Grab calculates the bonus at around 20 percent of the driver’s average monthly net income over the past 12 months.

For example, a driver earning an average of Rp3.5 million per month could receive around Rp700,000 in BHR.

The bonus is distributed through OVO Cash, and eligibility is assessed based on factors including order volume, online hours, driver ratings, and compliance with the platform’s code of conduct.

Maxim also offers a BHR that can reach around Rp600,000 for drivers with an average monthly income of Rp3 million.

To qualify, drivers must complete at least 400 orders within the last three months and must not have serious violations on their performance record.

Similarly, inDrive provides a bonus that may reach about 20 percent of a driver’s monthly income, which could also amount to around Rp600,000 depending on earnings.

Eligibility for inDrive drivers depends on performance records, high order volumes, and maintaining low cancellation rates.
