Accompanied by Reuben Davis, an experienced Gett driver, de Renzi candidly answered questions regarding Gett's business model and discussed shop with the driver.
During the insightful 10-minute interview, Davis probed de Renzi on various aspects of the Gett platform. One particular point of interest was the commission fees charged to drivers. Davis questioned whether the company had considered lowering the current 20% commission rate, commenting that it was an area of debate for many drivers.

Another topic of discussion was the Premium charges implemented by Gett; de Renzi quizzed the cabbie on whether he thought the Premium charges helped drivers and whether Gett has the correct setup when it comes to the meter, fixed- price fares and Premiums.
