Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes. To operate with us in this zone, you must hold a valid Private Hire or Hackney Carriage Driver licence issued by South Gloucestershire Council, alongside a licensed vehicle and appropriate private hire insurance.

  • Because Zippe operates with a lower, fairer commission model than traditional rideshare platforms, your take-home pay is higher than the industry average. Combining everyday local trips with our contract Home-2-School work guarantees an incredibly stable income.

  • We welcome a broad variety of vehicles that comply directly with local council standards—typically clean, modern multi-purpose vehicles (MPVs), saloons, and estates. We highly encourage electric and hybrid vehicles to help support local clean air initiatives.

  • Bath & North East Somerset Driver

    "I have absolutely no problems driving with Zippe at all. I’d say that they're straight, they're friendly, they're easy to deal with, they’re understanding if you've got an issue or a problem, which means you can't fulfil a trip."

  • Tony (Driver)

    “Since September 2024 when I first met the management and staff, I found them all friendly and welcoming, and I find them very accommodating when I explained my usual set pattern of working hours. They communicate well and really helped me out when my vehicle broke down recently by providing me with a rental vehicle in order for me to continue working!! All in all I find the company a breath of fresh air in that they will always talk to you, solve any problems, and all with a cheery attitude. Good stuff zippe!!!”
