What this sheet is for

Know what a shift or a week really earned after the operator's cut, and check the operator's or platform's payout against your own count.

Who it is for

Taxi and private hire drivers, app drivers and owner-drivers paying commission, rent or a settle to someone else.

How to use it

  1. Write in the commission rate, rent and any fixed deduction you are actually charged.
  2. Log each job as you finish it — pick-up, drop-off, fare, tip, how it was paid.
  3. Total the fares, tips and extras at the end of the period.
  4. Deduct commission, rent, fuel and anything else to reach the net figure.
  5. Compare the net with what you were paid, and query the difference.

What is on the sheet

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: A taxi, private hire or owner-driver's takings for one shift or one week — each job with its fare, tip and how it was paid, then the deductions that come off before the money is yours. No fare rates, commission or fees are printed: those are your operator's, your platform's or your licensing area's, so write in what you are actually charged and reconcile the payout against it.

Questions

Why is there no commission percentage or fare rate on the sheet?

Because every operator, platform and licensing area sets its own, and they change. The sheet gives you a box for the rate you are charged so the arithmetic is yours and checkable, not ours and wrong.

Is this a tax record?

It is a record of takings and deductions that a tax return could be built from, but what you can claim and how you report it depend on the rules where you are. Keep the sheets and ask an accountant or your tax authority.
