GoShare Driver: Earn Money Reviews

Hello,
I am a new driver for your company. I have the utmost desire to be part of this team and make money for everyone involved. Nonetheless, I am very frustrated with my experience so far. In the last 3 days I haven’t been able to get but 1 project. For some reason I am not getting requests to my app. I only receive emails which I reply with the word “accept”, but most times, nothing happens. I deleted GoShareDriver and downloaded it again and it is the same thing. I borrowed a friends phone and downloaded GoShareDriver on his phone and I was able then, through her phone, to accept the 1 job I have been able to do. I triple checked and my phone have push notifications activated. I don’t know what seems to be the problem, and I have only been able to communicate via text messages with your support team.
Just right now I received an email with a project but nothing on GoShareDriver ! This is very frustrating! As of right now, I am in the negative with GoShare. I haven’t been able to even recuperate the cost of the background check. I will really appreciate some technical support with GoShareDriver. I have friends that have trucks and were all waiting to see what was my experience, to see if it was worth it before they move forward or pay the background check. As of right now, my experience has been very frustrating and disappointing. Please, I need some technical support. Thanks in advance.

GoShare could be great if they were more reasonable and understanding as well as accommodating when the client changes the time, location or canceled. If you do any of that your charged $50 automatically without consenting but the likelihood of you getting reimbursed for your time due to a client or app mistake is not likely.

Plus the customer service reps can be rude even in a moment or crisis. If you apply stay on top of your application status because it takes awhile then all of a sudden you’ll get a bunch of responses from different people asking for additional information. Stick with the main support/ driver email and not individuals.

PS… I don’t I remember receiving any tips. My luck mine were being reallocated to the wife I don’t have alimony payments. Again… what wife!?!

First assignment told me I wasn’t allowed to avoid toll roads I’ve been avoiding tolls for over 28 years and 3 million miles like they have a right to tell me how to drive which is my expense 2 days after the gig they told they couldn’t pay me because of some excuse even though they verified my account then they wanted my PayPal account so they could pay me ASAP my PayPal account was mysteriously locked after I gave them my email for it it’s 6 days since gig no pay starting to wonder if they are legit or a scam all the other apps I use pay me in
24 to 48 hours some pay same day customers pay with a credit card they already have their pay because I worked for them I put off working for 2 other companies and because they haven’t paid me I’m short on rent definitely not starting out on the right foot and still they have the nerve to ask me to continue doing gigs not this man until I get paid not to mention it was a 540 mile round trip that I have to pay for fuel and tolls up front and pay my way home so far not so good I hope it improves

GoShare is the best company I have worked for by far. I have been with them since October 2020. They pay better than any delivery company I have worked for. The dispatchers are awesome and the customers are generous tippers. Most projects can be handled by one person. Buying a truck was the best decision I made in my life. It’s worth the investment since people always need someone to deliver their furnitures. GoShare is growing and expanding. One day, it will be the most popular and well known platform ever. Just do your part and be smart. Show up on time and communicate with the dispatchers. I’m planning to stay with GoShare as long as they exist. A+

At first I was very excited and pumped to start using GoShare as a side hustle, now I’m left just very disappointed. The onboarding process takes about 3 weeks. I passed everything with flying colors and was literally on the last step which is verifying my bank information. I received and email about 2 days ago notifying me that “applicant has been declined due to OFAC”, they could not verify my bank information. I still to this day do not know what the issue was, I’d hate to have been disqualified due to a typo, but as I mentioned before I’m still awaiting an email for answers and have received nothing. It’s unfortunate too because I’ve read that once you’ve been declined, you cannot reapply so I may have to be tossed to the side. What’s weird tho is there was no issue with my bank information when they charged me the $45 background check fee. So now they have the $45 bucks and all my bank information, seems fishy. Fishy enough to warn people to stay away!

Go share is the best platforms by far you get paid for your mileage also tips from customers plus if you have a small sedan vehicle you can still join the platform as a helper or courier and make great money just be sure when you accept a job you be on time and if a emergency comes up be sure to reach out to customer service and explain your situation don’t matter what’s the situation at hand if not you will hit with a no show fee so longs you being responsible you shouldn’t have any problems with making great money I been with go share over a year now and I love it!!

Hey , this is a great company to make some extra cash with and meet great people . It’s a little more then what I thought at first . But , that’s because I was waiting for the punchline . My mistake . It’s as good as it says it is . Now to why I didn’t give 5 . It’s more my fault I think . Customer service is very thorough and on top of making sure the customer is getting a professional and on time driver. They make sure all is good . Just a tad impersonal when it’s comes to their drivers at least in my case . But , In the end it all turned out well . $$$$$ so no 5 stars til I get more work lol .

I am a new driver to the GoShare platform, and even me having all notifications on, IPhone 13, app open all the time, when a good worth project comes up, I quickly press on it, but always before the 30 sec counter is over, the project is always taken a few seconds before my counter is zeroed.. Are there drivers with counters less than the 30 sec? How do I really get these projects that seems that always are taken by drivers with less seconds in their counter? How can I lower the time in my counter to be on the same fare situation? Thank you. Gerardo

As you can see from other reviews there’s a lot of stupid requirements because of “their insurance”. Beyond that though..

- I’m not wasting time and money getting my brand new vehicle inspected.
- I’m not spending $45 (or $150 if you’ve ever lived in NY for some reason) for you to do a background check. That’s a cost of doing business that should fall on the company, definitely not the contractor. No other app or company has ever asked me to pay for a background fee.
- They charge a cancellation fee to drivers ranging from $10-50. How ridiculous. Their video tries to explain how it is not a punishment but there’s no going around it. Your parent/spouse/child suddenly in the hospital? Pay up. You get in a car accident? Pay up.
- To move on with the onboarding process you half to watch a HALF HOUR LONG video that explains nothing but common sense, and about 7 minutes explaining the clumsy flow of GoShareDriver. AND THEN you have to answer a 41, forty one, question quiz on the video. It’s easier to sign up to deliver people (which doesn’t say anything good about uber or Lyft either 😂)

There’s better apps and services to use. I will not be recommending this company to customers or other gig economists.

I’ve been with GoShare for approximately (1) month. I was the first independent driver to come on board with the program in Antelope CA. Work was slow in the beginning but it has gradually picked up. I’ve completed (2) jobs but have had multiple ones slip by or sometime rejected. The platform is easy to use. You have to be quick sometimes when accepting a job or someone else will grab it🤨. Had an issue with pay but once I contacted GoShare , it was dealt with quickly! I’m making about $40 on a job but it’s a start and I’m loving!😊

It works like a regular company who use apps to make money , yes is true you are you own “boss” I strong recommend it if you guys work with this company to RECORD all your projects
-Why ? , because is customers who really like to take advance of the system and make a report that you (driver) scratch the walls or the floors to get some credit for the “damage” , that means they pay less for what supposed to.
GoShare don’t care about the version you have and they CHARGE YOU the “damage” . That’s why is required to have a credit card on file when you submit the application to work for then.
That’s my story with this guys , they charge me to my credit card for something I never did it and 2 years later COLLECTION company’s star calling me to say I OWN MONEY for a “damage” project.
BE CAREFUL !!

I have been driving for the company for approximately two years. Though I love the extra money and the work and fully support the program, I am now unable to responsibly accept any new jobs.

For over a year, my app has stopped displaying the date/time for jobs. I just recently found out (from the customer service) that I am not the only one with this issue. My previous work-around was quickly swapping to my email to check the date/time of the job, but the company recently updated their email format and removed the date/time.

Now, I have no way of accepting a job without blindly hoping that I will be available. As a military member, I cannot simply up and leave my day job on a whim, so I carefully select which jobs I accept.

I would love to continue to do this work, but I’m at a stand-still and can’t participate until this glitch is resolved.

I have reached out to customer service no less than three times over the years; only on the most recent attempt did they admit that the problem expanded beyond me alone.

For the record and tech support purposes I’m on an iPhone 7 Plus with the latest iOS installed.

I’ve had a terrible experience over all and had nothing but problems and literally zero customer or driver support. I drove for over an hour to get to a job that didn’t even have a real address or anything and the only way to get to support to find out what to do is to cancel the job and screw over the people waiting on you and also lose the work and money you put in and then try (key word is try) to reach them only to get a voice mail service asking you to leave a message that is promptly ignored. To make things worse they also put all responsibility and liability on the drivers that they are ignoring and sending out to imaginary gigs.

Stay away from GoShareDriver I’m sure there are much better ones out there.

GoShare needs to verify exactly what the customer wants before putting up the job. Example I saw a job that the customer wants you to pick up something from their house, take it to a warehouse and then return another item back to the customers home. That is 2 jobs! Who is responsible for this? There also need to be a point of contact within the job for drivers to communicate with

I am in the Denver metro area. So plentiful population. Since I was approved 6 days ago I have gotten a request for 1 job in the middle of the night. By the time I saw the alert it had been taken.
I think that it’s highly unethical to take money from people for a background check if there isn’t enough work.
I understand that this is better as a part time gig but there’s a big difference between part time and totally dead. GoShare should NOT allow more drivers to sign up in areas where they know it isn’t busy. I wanted to get my money back for the background check and a representative said I couldn’t. I just think it’s really messed up to advertise $30-40/hr when in reality it is nothing because there’s no work.

I signed up two months ago and still have seen an offer that worth my time. I accepted one helper offer and when arrived the location at Costco, the customer said that no need for helper, the cargo van driver can do both jobs. I contacted the GoShare support, they contacted the customer and said the customer canceled the helper offer but I will be paid $15 since I came back the location. A month later, I haven’t receive the $15 payment and I didn’t bother. No offers available in my town though I saw several offers where the drop off is in my town. The pickup location is 17 miles and the total pay is about $24, total of 34 miles; not with it my time.

Went through the whole process of signing up and spending all the time to get a vehicle inspection and background check just to get signed on and literally see any jobs pop up here. I signed up with the expectation that there would be more than one job that every so often. The jobs that do pop up are way out of your way. Being that I signed up with my pickup truck most of these jobs aren’t worth driving almost an hour to pick up the stuff to deliver it almost another hour away. You spend more gas and if you don’t jump on the jobs quick it’s not even worth it. Thought this would be a great opportunity to make extra money with my truck.

Pros
You might make some money
On demand
Cancellation fee (although it’s sometimes doesn’t cover gas money)

Cons
There countdown system for projects where you are competing against bots and other contractors. If you have weak cell service forget about it

They don’t have same day pay like most apps ( this is a big deal especially considering they get the money from their vendors usually the same day or the day after

They charge you for canceling even if it’s within 10 minutes of selecting a job and you accidentally accepted it and it’s like 20-30 dollars

If you get cancelled on they paid you a fee which is really nothing at times and they don’t show it in your earnings. Which can throw off your accounting

You never know how much money they owe you. They simply show you how much you’ve already been paid. All the while all the jobs will show as paid. It’s very confusing.

I started working with GoShare a week ago, thanks to my family friend, that told me about GoShareDriver. I had my truck park at the house while I was doing Uber on my SUV. I couldn’t believe how busy and professional GoShareDriver runs. So far I did 6 trips. And the only thing I can say, is that I’m very happy with GoShareDriver. The Dispatch are totally awesome and very helpful. Now I drive my truck all day lol.

It’s a decent side hassle job. I think sometimes bureaucracy kills. I just upgraded my 2016 Silverado 1500 to a brand new 2019 Silverado HD and I informed them for the change . All of sudden I was informed that my account is deactivated due lack of documentation for the new vehicle. One of the missing item is inspection receipt and form. This is a brand new truck with a valid inspection sticker on the windshield valid for 4 years. I do not understand the “NEED” to do another inspection. IMHO this is bureaucracy and makes driver to rethink if they should upgrade their trucks and got penalized for have a newer vehicle and being honest telling them so.

It’s not right how 3 guys get every single job in Boston once in a while one slips threw the cracks. If my phone is in my pocket I don’t have a chance that is insane I’ve been in this business for 20 years and it’s not right. We are all here to make money but how can I if a job is gone as soon as I click on it. It’s so disrespectful to all the drivers . One time I was in the store when a order came in and guess what I could not get it this also makes no sense. Frist come frist works in a grocery store at a deli counter not on deliveries

I got a request as a helper I accept it I drive 8 miles from my location. I have arrived at the job location waiting for 20 minutes and then they tell me project has been canceled and I text to them. I told them if I cancel project I get paid 50 as fee cancellation and if you were at time of my clock 40 minutes plus gas, I got nothing so I told him the story they tell me they will beat me $10 liar day does not pay me penny they very very happy to charge you $50 cancellation fee but they cannot give you $.50 for one hours west of time I talk to them even the manager he confirmed they will pay $10 for me. I got nothing all play. And I hope if someone see the views, you know who I am without, thank you

I just started this a little over a week ago. I constantly see projects available but the start time is within 30 minutes of getting notified and I’m usually 40+ minutes away. So I would be late getting there if I accepted it. I wish you had no less than an hour to get to the location just in case you happen to be over 30 minutes away. I haven’t accepted a single project due to that issue alone. I also assumed there would consistently be projects available, when reality is it’s 1 or 2 every few hours. Which is fine, I just thought there would be more activity. It is a side hustle so I get notified a lot when I'm already at work and barely when I’m actually off. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Today was the first time using GoShareDriver and it was not good experience. When I selects the order GoShareDriver would clicking then it says there is error try later. But the order was still added to my batch. Then when I am at the merchant bringing up the order was taking so long to provide them with the information they where needing. In addition to GoShareDriver Walmart stop accepting pick ups at 8pm. But on GoShareDriver it stated until 10pm. I wasn’t able to pick up up two orders since they was not located on there device. Then I had two other orders one the wait was way over 1 hour and another that I wasn’t Able to pickup since it was 8pm that I arrived at the pick up location.

GoShareDriver/company needs to take a look at its onboarding process. They will expect you to pay $49 for a background check ($150 if you live in NY) as the second step in the onboarding. I can get my own background check done for free that meets all state and federal requirements.

Any company that requires you to pay for your own background check, whether you’re an independent contractor or not, should be approached with caution. It makes no sense to require an out of pocket expense from someone when they don’t even know if they’ll have available projects in their area.

If you’re looking to make some extra cash, I’d advise not moving forward with this one — at least not until they waive the background check fee.

GoShare is kinda ok but not doing well on the PAYMENT part. I drive with GoShare and my payment can never be tracked by me, the payment method is very ridiculous and it’s not transparent. Sometimes, some payments will be added together without indicating what project it was by adding project numbers, which makes it very difficult for me as a driver to track my payment as they are paid out to me. Some payments will be paid alone, sometimes payments will be paid randomly by picking one from the top and leave like 2 in the middle unpaid and one will also be paid from the bottom and this makes me lose track of my payments as a driver. This payment method is not transparent and it’s a very bad style because sometimes some of my payments are never even paid. GoShare should try to be more transparent concerning payment and make it trackable for drivers also. This will make everyone happy.

Definitely when you are in very hard time and you try to find a job for yourself you apply for this company too, but they say you must pay $49 for background check and it’s not refundable, after that they make everything super hard for you to get to the point ,how after two weeks when they waste your time for background check, you can find out they didn’t verify your information because they said ,because we have lots of driver application we need eight weeks to verify your account. You know what! they make money from you not from the job. They are not honest with you. They never let you know. They have lots of driver application until you pay $49 then they surprise you with eight weeks

I was offered an opportunity to be a helper so figured it’ll be good to finally get my feet wet after being a member of the GoShare platform for several months. I had a great experience overall. As the other driver, “Julio” pulled up, I helped him load the furniture into his vehicle and followed him to the customer’s home. We got there, unloaded and the task was complete. I thanked the customer for her business. Since it’s my first time, Julio assisted me with closing out the job on GoShareDriver . Thank you Julio!

Again, great experience overall!
