Hey guys it's Olivia and I'm back with another video.
So the day that I am filming this is Saturday March 13th 2021 and if you guys have been watching
my channel for a little over a year then you would know that on March 10th 2020 I started delivering
for Uber Eats. So it's been over a year since I started driving for Uber Eats and I'm going
to share with you my stats from my first ever year driving for Uber Eats. Everything from
how much money I made total, to how much money I made hourly, how much money I averaged per delivery,
how much money I made from referrals, how many kilometres I put on my car, everything.
I'm going to share with you all the stats from my first year delivering on Uber Eats. But before we get
into this week's video be sure to subscribe to my channel because I make new videos every Monday;
I make anywhere from Uber Eats videos like this, to Rant videos, to Popsocket videos, and with all that
being said let's get into this week's video. So I have everything written down on my phone so
I'm going to be looking down a lot in this video, but I'm going to share with you the number
that you guys want to hear which is how much money I made on Uber in my first year. So this is my
gross income, I haven't paid taxes on it yet; I'm going to have to do that next month in April.
And this doesn't include, like, how much money I spent on gas, how much money I spent on oil changes, blah blah blah.
This is just how much money Uber has paid me thus far. And that number is $16,741.87.
So yeah that's a pretty decent amount of money. So if we go into the Uber app really quickly,
you can see that the first day I started delivering was March 10th of last year, and then if we scroll to the very top,
the last delivery that I have done was on March 10th of this year; so this is my one
year of earnings. And so if we go back to the very beginning when I just started delivering,
as you can see us making hundreds of dollars a week if not over $1,000 a week. But then
as we get into June/July it started to go down a little bit because I started to do summer school.
And then when we get to September it's pretty much $100, that one day in November was over $400,
and so it was like between like $90 and like $200 average because I had school.
And then this one week in December where I made over $700 because I made a whole video
about a week doing Uber Eats and I'll link that right there, but yeah. So as you can see
as I had more school work I was working less but I did work every single week for at least
one day, except for two weeks; so let's talk about those really quickly. So as you can see,
January 11th to January 18th it says I made $400 on the 14th, however, if I click that
you'll see that I was online for 0 seconds, did 0 trips, 0 points, every thing is 0.
That is from a referral. So one of my referrals completed their 50 trip so I got $400
but I did not drive that week. And then if we go to the 18th to the 25th, it says no activity and $0.
So why didn't I deliver for those two weeks? Well a person in my household got
COVID and so I had to quarantine for two weeks. I didn't have it, I went and got a test and it came
back negative, but I still quarantined for two weeks because that's what you're supposed to do
and I wasn't going to be walking around handling people's food when there was a person in my house
who had been tested positive for COVID, so I took those two weeks off. And so I would have made
$0 two weeks in a row, but the first week one of my referrals ended up pulling through for me,
so I drove for 50 out of 52 weeks in the past year. So yeah, I just wanted to point that out. So now,
I told you that I made over $16,000 last year; let's break that number down a little bit further.
So as I said that one week I made $400 from a referral, which means that I was making money
from referrals throughout the year. I managed to get 9 referrals who completed their trips
and I made $2,220 from referrals, right. So if we subtract that $2,220 from the $16,741.87 total,
that means that I made $14,521.87 from driving. So the reason why I was able to get some referrals is
because of this YouTube channel; whenever I make an Uber related video I always link my referral
link in the description. So let's pretend that I didn't have a YouTube channel and therefore I
wasn't getting referrals, then I would have made $14,521.87 because that is how much I made from
the deliveries I was doing. So then if we break down that number, $14,521.87, if we break down
that number even further we'll get this. So of that $14,000, $4568.64 was from tips.
So that wasn't from what Uber was just giving out all willy-nilly, that was from people being
generous and tipping me $3 here, $5 here, $20 here. Like, I was getting some high tips,
some low tips, all around, but they obviously eventually all add up because
over $4,500 of what I made last year was from tips. Which means that $9,953.23 was directly
from Uber. And that money also includes surges and boosts and so that also depends on the area that
you're delivering in. If you were delivering in an area with no surges and no boosts, then that
$9,900 would be lower. So yes, let me just break it down altogether one more time.
My total gross income; $16,741.87, $2,220 was from referrals, $4,568.64 was from tips, and $9,953.23
was just from Uber's fare that they were going to pay regardless. So that is the breakdown
of my total earnings. So then, this is another thing that I want to break down earnings wise.
So I did -- in the past year I've done 1612 deliveries. And so, if we take the $14,000
which is what I earned from driving, we're not including the referral bonuses right now, so if we take the
$14,521.87 and divide it by 1612 deliveries, we get about $9.01 per delivery. So that wasn't just
what Uber was paying out, like Uber might have paid me $5 for a delivery and then the person
tipped me $4, right. So including tips and surges and boosts and everything, I was averaging about
$9.01 per delivery. And also, if we want to know what I was making hourly throughout the year;
I went through all the week's, added up all the hours, all the minutes, everything that I worked,
and I worked 613.93 hours. And so if we take $14,521.87 and divide it by the 613.93 hours that I drove,
I was averaging $23.65 per hour. Which in Ontario the minimum wage is around $15 maybe like $15.75,
I don't really know 'cause I've never -- Uber is the first and only job I've ever had so I don't know
what the minimum wage is currently, but I know that it's around $15. And so I made about 8
more dollars average than the minimum wage. So that's, that's pretty good, that's pretty good.
And if you saw my community post from a couple of weeks ago there was one day where I made $35 an hour.
So yeah, obviously it fluctuates and it depends on what time of day, what day of the week,
what part of the city you're in; there's so many variables. But once you find that sweet spot like;
this is the best day, these are the best times, this is the best part of the city,
you can -- you can make a good amount of money. And then the last thing that I want to
delve into is, how many kilometres did I put on my car? I will put the miles conversion
on the screen. So I drove 17,362km for Uber in the past year, which is equivalent to 10788.25 miles.
And that is just for Uber. So in this past year I've probably put over 20 or 25 thousand
kilometres on my car and 17,362km was specifically from driving for Uber Eats. So I use the
QuickBooks self-employed app to track my mileage. No, this video is not sponsored; I pay for it.
I have been paying for it monthly for the past year, this video is not sponsored by them;
it's just genuinely what I use. So those are all the numbers I have, that is all the math that I did,
and yes that is what my first year on Uber Eats looks like. Yes I do work part-time on Uber Eats,
I was working full-time over the summer because I had a whole bunch of time over the summer,
but then during the school year I work part-time. And sometimes that's one day a week,
sometimes it's 3 days a week, just whenever like I don't have class or I don't have an
assignment due or whatever, then I go out and work. And so this is the earnings
for a mainly part-time Uber Eats driver. So if you are a full-time Uber Eats driver or you're
not driving yet but you're thinking about it and you're thinking about doing it full-time;
well if I can earn $16,741.87 part-time, some of these weeks only working one day a week,
then if you're working 5 to 7 days a week for 40 plus hours a week
you're going to -- you're going to earn quite a bit more than me. So part-time earnings is
still a lot more than minimum wage and so full-time earnings is going to be
absolutely crazy. So yes, so that is it; that is my first year doing Uber Eats. That is how much
money I earned from March 10th 2020 to March 10th 2021; over $16,000 including referrals, and yes.
