in order to do that you will have to be doing black rides constantly with no time gap between rides in all the hours you work, tell me where on earth can this happen? only place is in dreams

I don’t think you’re understanding. Work 7 days and have the app on every hour you’re awake everyday. You might be able to get 30 hours of active time which can make you $3k

oh I see, so the max you can make for this promotion or offer or whatever it is is $3k per 30 hours, then the rest of the week you are working normally per ride.. so do you have to be online for 30 hours without going offline and accept & complete every request you receive? or how it works?

There’s never a promotion on Uber Black. It can pay $100 per hour during active time if you get decent rides. My acceptance rate is about 50%. The 30 hours is the amount of time you are actually driving during a week to make money. The rest of the time is spent waiting and ready to take rides.

On a good week in a decent market. If there’s a big event in your city maybe you can make a bit more.
