You might follow the same payout system for all your drivers, or you may rely on different payout structures depending on each driver’s role or operational responsibilities.
FleetRunnr fully supports this diversity by allowing you to configure individual payout setups for each driver based on multiple parameters.
Where to Configure Payouts
From your portal’s Dashboard, click Fleet.
Inside the Fleet module, use the left-side navigation menu and select Drivers to access your drivers page.
Available Payout Methods
You can set a driver’s payout based on one or multiple parameters, depending on how you want to compensate your drivers. These parameters include:
Per Shipment – This is the amount you pay your driver for each shipment they complete or handle, regardless of how many packages it contains.
Fixed Rate – These are payouts given to your drivers on a daily basis. The value you set here is paid for every day the driver works (per day), regardless of the number of shipments completed.
Per Hour – The value you set in this field is the amount you pay your driver for one hour of work. The system then multiplies this hourly rate by the total number of hours the driver worked, calculated from their check-in and check-out record.
Apply per Session — Important Note
Use this setting when your payout structure is based on a flat rate or a fixed payout per hour:
-> When Apply per Session is enabled, the system calculates payouts continuously from the moment a driver goes on duty until they go off duty, treating the entire duration as one payout period — even if the driver joins or leaves multiple shifts.
-> When Disabled (Default): Payouts are triggered only when a driver joins a shift and stop when they leave it. Simply being on duty is not enough to start a payout — if a driver is on duty but has not joined a shift, no payout is initiated.
How to Configure Driver Payouts
There are two ways to configure a driver’s payout:
Using the top bulk actions bar – You can set and update the payout for multiple drivers simultaneously.
Using the driver-specific actions menu – This allows you to set and update the payout for one driver at a time.
1- Set Multiple Drivers’ Payouts at Once Using the Top Bulk Actions Bar
This method allows you to set and edit the payout for multiple drivers simultaneously using the top bulk actions bar.
Quick Steps
Select the corresponding drivers(s) using the checkbox on the left.
At the top of the list, you will see the bulk action options (Check-in, Check-out).
Right next to these options, you’ll find the three vertical dots button.
Click it and choose “Set Payout” from the menu that appears.
In the right-side panel that appears, configure the payout for the selected driver(s).
When you’re done configuring the payout, click Save at the bottom right side of your screen.
Note:
When multiple drivers are selected, the information panel appears blank. This is intentional and does not indicate missing data. Because drivers may have different payout configurations, the system cannot display a single value.
Any payout value you enter will override the existing configuration for all selected drivers. Settings that are not configured will remain unchanged.
2- Set a Driver’s Payout Individually Using the Driver-Specific Actions Menu
This method allows you to set and edit the payout for one driver at a time using the driver-specific actions menu.
Quick Steps
Within your drivers list, locate the driver whose payout you want to configure .
Click the three horizontal dots located on the far right side of that driver’s row.
Select Set Payout.
In the right-side panel that appears, configure the payout for the selected driver.
When you’re done configuring the payout, click Save at the bottom right side of your screen.
Important Notes
Driver payouts can be configured using one or multiple parameters—such as per kilometer, per hour, per stop, or a flat rate—depending on how you choose to compensate your drivers and run your operations.
The currency displayed in the payout configuration window is always based on the default currency you set in your account’s Preferences.
The payout information you set for your drivers can be updated at any time when needed by accessing the same Set Payout window you originally used.
The input shown on the Pending page inside the Agent Billing category of the Accounting module is based on the driver’s payout configuration you set here.
