Indonesia Implements 8% Commission Cut for Ride‑Hailing Drivers
Indonesia's Ministry of Labor announced that a commission reduction for online motorcycle‑taxi (ojol) platforms took effect on 1 July 2026. Under the new rule, platforms retain 8% of each fare while drivers receive 92%, a measure directed by President Prabowo Subianto to raise driver welfare.
Minister of Labor Yassierli confirmed the policy during a press conference with leaders of the House of Representatives on 23 July 2026, and said a cross‑ministerial coordination meeting held the same day aligned technical implementation details. The government is finalising a presidential regulation on the ojol sector, with the draft expected to be completed within the coming week. The National Ojol Coalition and the Ministry of Transportation, represented by Dudy Purwagandhi, participated in the discussions, noting that most ride‑hailing firms are prepared to adopt the new commission split.
