Yes, and it’s a growing part of the market. There are three models, ranging from the most to the least involvement:
- Hiring a salaried driver. You manage the business (vehicle, platform, payroll); the profit margin is yours, as is the management work.
- Outsource operations to a fleet (delegated management). A professional operator integrates your licence into their fleet with their drivers and pays you as agreed. Lower profit margin, no day-to-day operations.
- Leasing out the licence. The most passive model: a lease agreement with a fixed monthly rent — in the current marketplace, between €1,500 and €2,200 depending on the province — and the operator takes care of everything else.
The critical factor in passive models is who operates the service: a poor operator may return your licence with penalties or put your licence renewal at risk. At VTC360, the network of verified operators publishes each operator’s fleet, length of service and performance metrics, and the highest level of certainty — the guaranteed income — ensures that the minimum income guaranteed by contract is included within the licence certificate itself. The starting point is investing without operating.
