Suggested Rate Card Increase
Empower has increased the DC Everyday and Everyday XL suggested per mile rate by $0.01.
Max Pickup ETA Filter
In response to driver feedback, Empower has released a Max Pickup ETA filter!
This feature allows drivers to set the maximum amount of time that they are willing to drive to pick up a rider. Drivers can also set an exception for higher dollar ride requests (and XL and Premium requests if applicable).
Stripe Instant Payout Limit Increased for Daily Plan!
We are excited to share that the Stripe Instant Payout limit for DC Daily subscribers has been increased to $100 per day! As a reminder, all drivers using Empower can use Stripe’s Instant Payout feature to “instantly” transfer earnings from their Stripe account to their connected bank, credit, or debit account.
