Payouts, early cashout, or back to weekly

How do payouts work? Your earnings are credited to your wallet after each completed ride, instead of a weekly payout to your bank account. The credit appears shortly after the ride ends. If a ride has an open price review, it's credited once the review is closed. Money that was already in your Bolt balance moves over with your next completed ride. There is no Monday payout to your bank after you sign up.

What happens with cash rides? On cash rides you already have the money, so Bolt's commission is taken from your wallet balance. If cash rides outweigh in-app rides, your balance can become negative. Your next earnings cover the negative amount first.

Can I use early cashout? No. Early cashout isn't available with Bolt Card, because your earnings are already on the card. To move money to your bank, open Bolt Card and tap Send.

How do I switch back to weekly payouts?

  1. Open Bolt Card, tap Send, and transfer the full balance to your bank.
  2. Contact support, ask to return to weekly bank payouts, and tell us why.
  3. Once your Bolt Card balance is zero, support will switch you back to weekly payouts and close the card.
