JAKARTA - The application-based transportation service provider platform (applicator) Grab Indonesia will close the GrabBike Hemat service subscription program for driver partners.

"Grab Indonesia announces that it will close the Affordable Access Subscription Program for Two-Wheel Transportation Driver Partners (GrabBike)," said Grab Indonesia CEO Neneng Goenadi, quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, May 20.

Neneng said the closure of this subscription program was carried out because Grab Indonesia considered that better adjustments were needed, as well as to create a sustainable ecosystem for all parties.

However, Neneng ensured that the GrabBike Hemat service would still be available for consumers with adjustments to the travel costs to be paid.

"Grab Indonesia confirms that the GrabBike Savings service for consumers will remain available with adjustments to costs that are carried out in a measured manner, while still prioritizing affordability for the community," he said.

Meanwhile, for users of the GrabBike Standard service, to date, Grab Indonesia has ensured that there is no price increase.

Neneng said that the welfare of driver partners was the company's top priority. Grab Indonesia, he continued, continues to strive to maintain driver partner income in the current industry dynamics.

In addition, he said the company would also continue to strive for various welfare programs that have been running, including the Eid Bonus (BHR), BPJS Employment facilities with Grab covering the premium for high-performing partners, additional accident insurance.

There is also the GrabScholar scholarship program for the children of driver partners, the Umrah program for inspiring partners, GrabAcademy, GrabBenefits, and the GERCEP emergency channel (Grab Respon Cepat).

"In addition, Grab Indonesia will always coordinate with the government and all stakeholders to ensure the implementation of Presidential Regulation Number 27 of 2026 for Two-Wheel Transport Driver Partners (GrabBike) will run smoothly," said Neneng.
