How to become a Shebah Driver

Shebah is a rideshare and delivery service for women, children, and families. It’s the first platform of its kind in Australia, with drivers and riders who are all women. If you’re looking to become a driver for Shebah full-time, or as a side-hustle, you’ve come to the right place. Here we’ll look at what it takes to join the Shebah driving family.

‍

‍Step 1: Register with Shebah

The first step to becoming a driver is making sure you meet all of Shebah's requirements. To be a driver, you must be female, over 21 years old and have held a full Australian driver's license for at least two years. You need an ABN and you must have your own car that is no more than 10 years old. Additionally, your car needs to be well maintained with up-to-date registration, insurance, and other legal requirements such as seat belts and airbags. Finally, you will need to pass a background check.

‍Step 2: Complete your Shebah onboarding

Once you’ve made sure that you meet all the requirements, the next step is applying for the role. The application process includes completing an online form followed by an interview with one of the Shebah team. Following this, Shebah will run an information session where they'll go over safety protocols as well as expectations that Shebah has from its drivers—things like being on time and providing great customer service.

Step 3: Set up your business

Being part of the Shebah network means running your own business; this means managing taxes and expenses associated with being self-employed. One of the best ways to take care of all of this, is to use a platform like Thriday, where you can keep track of your income accurately so that when it comes time for tax season, everything is taken care of properly. Thriday automatically takes care of your banking, accounting and tax, so you don’t have to worry about financial admin and tax again. If you are registered for GST, you can even lodge your BAS directly to the ATO. To see how much money you could save on tax with Thriday, take this quick tax quiz today.
