Why it works
Better drivers cost you less
Drivers who earn well stay.
More experienced drivers, newer cars, shorter wait times.
Less commission, lower fares.
When the platform takes $1.50 flat instead of a percentage, riders don’t fund the gap.
No surge games.
No algorithmic price-walking, no peak-time penalties. Ever.
Good to know
Riding with Flot
When can I ride?
Flot launches in Kitchener-Waterloo in 2026. Join the waitlist and we’ll notify you the day booking opens in your area.
Will my fare surge?
No. There is no surge pricing and no peak-time multiplier. The fare you are quoted is the fare you pay, every time.
Why is it cheaper?
Because Flot charges drivers a flat fee instead of a percentage, riders never fund a commission on top of their fare. Every receipt is itemized in full.
