I got the same as yours, but it's all $28/hr throughout the week except $30/hr for Thursdays... and I have to do 1.5 rph... Why is yours so much better than mine? Is it because you've been driving longer than me?

And when it says... "-Complete at least 1 trip per hour online (on average)"
Does that mean to be online for at least 1 hour of the guaranteed period or just online in general? I'm asking because last night I started at 8:15pm and the last period offered was ending at 9pm. So, if I did my 1.5 rph (get 2 rides in) before 9pm, and stay on at 9:15, would I have received the guaranteed bonus? Or since there was 45min left, I was already out of it? Maybe get in 3rides total since I stayed passed 9:01? Lemme know. Thanks.

I got the boost for the week. No driving during the 1.4 periods, maybe some for the 1.5, kill the 1.6-1.8 times. I kind of like the boost, my acceptance rating was 40% this morning, ignored 6 pools in a row this morning, felt sooo good. Missed a few stacked rides by mistake and didn't pick up anyone that wasn't surge or boost.

You have to be online at least 1 hour of each separate guarantee period. So, in your example, only being online for 45 min during a guarantee period means you can't earn any guarantee for that period even if you got the required rides in.

:) Isnt it a great feeling?? I love boost as long as the map continues to cover most the city. I have been doing about 35$ an hour Net doing Boost. My acceptance rate was terrible today. Similar to you, I let about 10 pool rides time out, as well as rides just outside the boost area. We are independent contractors, therefor I am not going to stress about having 80% acceptance rate for the guarantee.

Intresting that the guarrantee and minimum requirements are not consistent. I too got $28 / $30 wih 1.5 / hr minimum. Did others get the higher offer 312 received?

You must be a recent driver like myself and Robert. The drivers who have been driving longer probably get the higher offers.
I don't think it's worth it to drive for the $28s or $30s. And 1.5 rph can get annoying. Even though I'll drive the $32/hr on the weekends lol. Whatever. I only drive part time so I'll just wait for the weekend.
