As Grab Philippines celebrates this year’s Buwan ng Tagapaghatid, the nation’s leading superapp, and a pivotal economic force, reiterates its dedication to the well-being of its esteemed driver- and delivery-partners. This annual event serves as a heartfelt tribute to the resilient spirit and unwavering dedication of independent Grab partners, the frontline heroes delivering the superapp’s safe, reliable, and convenient services to passengers and consumers.

Expressing Gratitude with MagPasa-Salamat: A Single Tap Campaign

During Buwan ng Tagapaghatid, Grab extends an invitation to its superapp users to express appreciation and gratitude for the tireless efforts and top-notch service of Grab driver- and delivery-partners. Through the MagPasa-Salamat Campaign, Filipino consumers and passengers can make a significant difference with just a few taps:

Tipping: A Thank You for Stellar Service Tipping, a universal gesture of gratitude, seamlessly integrated within the Grab app, allows users to contribute directly to partners. This Buwan ng Tagapaghatid, Grab enhances the tipping experience with Tip Matching, doubling the tips received by partners. The inaugural Tip Matching event on November 12, 2023, recorded a remarkable 36% increase in total tips received by partners compared to the average daily tips. Grab encourages users to mark their calendars for the upcoming Tip Matching Day on November 26.

Rating: A Thank-You in Five Stars The Grab platform encourages users to consistently rate their experience with a driver or delivery-partner, providing valuable feedback for continuous service enhancement.

Food For Your Driver: A Thank-You in a Delivery Bag The ‘Food For Your Driver’ option on GrabFood enables consumers not only to order meals for themselves but also to treat their drivers to food from the same restaurant. Renowned food chains such as Jollibee, Chowing, Mang Inasal, Baliwag Lechon Manok, and others embrace this feature.

As part of the Buwan ng Tagapaghatid celebration, Seattle’s Best generously provides Grab delivery-partners with a complimentary large Iced White Chocolate Mocha for every order exceeding the minimum value of Php 750 from November 13 to 20. Additionally, until the end of November, Kenny Rogers extends consumer gratitude by offering a free Coke in a can for delivery-partners following a specific minimum order value on GrabFood.

GrabAsenso: Safeguarding Driver Welfare

In anticipation of Buwan ng Tagapaghatid 2023, Grab unveils its GrabAsenso campaign—a comprehensive initiative focused on driving sustainable growth and advancement across five critical pillars. At its core, GrabAsenso strives to create meaningful livelihood opportunities.

To fortify the economic viability of Grab’s platform, GrabAsenso implements a competitive earnings model, incentive scheme, and robust insurance policies for driver- and delivery-partners. Collaborating with social protection agencies like SSS and Pag-IBIG, Grab ensures that crucial social welfare and protection programs are easily accessible to its partners, with agency booths stationed at Grab’s Partner Center in Marikina, exemplifying proactive engagement with these agencies and the vast Grab driver fleet.

In a bid to bolster livelihood sustainability and promote financial inclusivity, Grab offers micro-financing products easily availed and accessed by partners. Furthermore, strategic partnerships with ancillary businesses within the mobility industry, including fuel and automotive maintenance companies, provide exclusive and cost-effective deals to partners, effectively reducing their day-to-day operational expenses.

This November, Grab collaborates with Seaoil, Caltex, and Shell to offer additional exclusive deals for Grab driver- and delivery-partners in select branches in Metro Manila, Pampanga, Davao, Cagayan De Oro, and Iloilo—transforming them into Buwan ng Tagapaghatid Pit Stops. These key locations will offer Grab partners enticing fuel and gear oil discounts, engaging games, and the chance to win exciting prizes.

Grab Philippines Chief Operating Officer Ronald Roda shares, “Our undiluted commitment to our partners’ welfare and empowerment is key to the continued dynamism and vitality of the Grab ecosystem. Our success hinges not only on cutting-edge technology but on the equitable partnership between the platform and its partners. We continuously strive to nurture a robust marketplace—efficiently connecting consumers with the goods and services they need, delivered by partners committed to excellence. Our commitment to our partners’ empowerment is vividly reflected through practical initiatives and programs, assuring them of the better future they aspire to build with us.”
