Download the Bolt driver app and pick up your first passenger

First, you will need to download the Bolt driver app on your smart device – iOS or Android. To start using the app, log in with your chosen username and password. You will receive your login details directly to your email after your driver application has been approved.

Using the app is easy:

Swipe right to go online and set your driving radius.
When you receive a request, you will instantly see the trip’s price, category, pickup location, and destination before you can confirm it.
Once you have reached the pickup point, swipe right to notify the passenger about your arrival.

When you reach the set destination, swipe right to finish the trip.

Getting paid

Customers pay for their journey directly via the Bolt app. You will receive your payments during the first half of the week. Depending on your bank’s processing time, the funds should take between 1-2 business days to reflect in your account.
