Market Research: Average Driver Pay in South Africa
We reviewed multiple sources to understand what drivers typically earn in South Africa. Two of the most reliable benchmarks gave us very different results
Indeed
Based on ~1,000 salaries reported
- Monthly Avg: ~R8,200
- Annual: ~R98,000
ERI (Driver/Chauffeur)
Professional driver benchmark
- Monthly Avg: ~R19,800
- Annual: ~R238,000
- Hourly: ~R115/hr
These differences highlight how wide the driver market is — from general roles (Indeed) to premium, professional contracts (ERI).
Our pricing of R800/day is positioned fairly in the mid-range market. Above the lowest averages to ensure quality and professionalism, yet below the top-tier corporate benchmarks so that clients still enjoy affordable, transparent rates.
