How Much Do Rideshare Drivers Make in Regina SK?
This is the question every prospective rideshare driver in Regina asks first, and most of the answers online are out of date. With GoHive live on the Apple App Store as of April 2026 and operating on a zero-commission subscription model, the math has changed materially.
This piece breaks down what a Regina rideshare driver actually earns in 2026 across both available platforms — GoHive and Uber — using real fare structures rather than estimates.
Average earnings per trip
On a typical 3.8 km, 12-minute Regina trip:
- GoHive Captain: $8.20 take-home (100% of base fare — GoHive takes 0% commission)
- Uber driver: approximately $6.54 take-home (after Uber's roughly 44% commission on the rider total)
GoHive drivers keep 100% of every base fare. Uber drivers keep approximately 56% after commission. Over time that compounds: 100 trips a week is roughly $166 more on GoHive before subscription costs.
GoHive vs Uber driver earnings
GoHive replaces percentage commission with a flat subscription. The trade-off is simple: pay a fixed daily, weekly or monthly fee and keep 100% of every dollar above it. Subscription tiers:
- Daily: $20/day
- Weekly: $100/week
- Monthly: $250/month
- Free trial: 14 days at launch
For a driver doing 10 trips a day at the typical Regina trip economics, GoHive nets roughly $82 per day before subscription, $62 after the daily fee — versus $65.40 per day on Uber after commission. The advantage widens with volume because the GoHive subscription is fixed.
Daily earnings breakdown
| Trips per day | GoHive daily (gross) | Uber daily (after commission) |
|---|---|---|
| 5 trips | $41.00 | $32.70 |
| 10 trips | $82.00 | $65.40 |
| 15 trips | $123.00 | $98.10 |
| 20 trips | $164.00 | $130.80 |
GoHive numbers above are gross before subscription. Subtract $20/day (daily plan) or about $14.30/day (weekly plan, $100 ÷ 7). Even at 5 trips, the weekly plan leaves roughly $26.70 net daily on GoHive vs $32.70 on Uber — Uber wins at very low volume. From ~7 trips per day GoHive pulls ahead, and the lead grows with every additional trip.
Monthly income projections
Assuming a captain works 22 days a month and consistently completes 10 trips a day:
- GoHive monthly gross: $82 × 22 = $1,804
- GoHive monthly subscription: $250 (monthly plan, best value)
- GoHive monthly net: $1,554
- Uber monthly net (after ~44% commission): $1,438
GoHive Captains earn approximately $116 more per month at this volume, with the gap widening sharply for full-time drivers doing 15–20 trips a day.
How the subscription model works
The subscription replaces commission per trip. There is no per-trip deduction; instead the subscription is debited from earnings on a daily, weekly, or monthly cadence. Captains can switch tiers any time without penalty. The 14-day launch free trial gives every new captain two weeks to test the platform with zero subscription cost — meaning every dollar of base fare during the trial is take-home.
Is rideshare driving worth it in Regina?
The honest answer in 2026 depends on volume.
- 4 trips/day or fewer → marginal at best on either platform.
- 5–9 trips/day → Uber's per-trip economics are slightly more forgiving; GoHive's weekly plan can still match.
- 10+ trips/day → GoHive's zero-commission subscription model consistently outearns Uber. The break-even point is roughly 7 trips a day on the daily plan, lower on weekly and monthly plans.
For a captain who treats rideshare as a primary income source in Regina, GoHive's earnings model is the better economic structure in 2026. Ready to start? Apply to drive and get your free 14-day trial.
