ORMOC CITY — Residents and visitors across Ormoc City can now book affordable commuter rides and door-to-door delivery services following the official launch of Maxim’s local operations. The expansion brings an accessible mobile transport platform to the commercial hub of western Leyte, giving locals a streamlined way to travel and transport goods.
Diverse Ride Options and Budget-Friendly Fares
Through the Maxim mobile application, users in Ormoc can choose from a range of transport and courier solutions tailored to everyday commuting needs. The platform's initial lineup includes four-seater and six-seater passenger cars, bike parcel deliveries, and local tricycle rides. Fares are structured to remain competitive and accessible for the public:
4-Seater Cars: Base fares start at ₱45 for daily passenger rides.
6-Seater Cars: Base fares start at ₱55 for larger groups or families.
Bike Delivery & Trike Services: Starting at ₱10 for quick errands and short-distance travel.
Flexible Earning Opportunities for Local Drivers
In addition to serving commuters, the rollout opens flexible earning streams for driver-partners and couriers across the city. Commission rates on the platform range from 15% to 18% depending on the chosen terms of cooperation. To support new partners as they onboard, Maxim is offering an initial zero-commission period for drivers registering on the platform.
“We are excited to bring Maxim’s services to Ormoc and provide residents with an affordable, reliable, and convenient way to travel and send items,” said Donald Maing, head of Maxim Ormoc.
Enhancing Local Mobility in Western Leyte
The platform's arrival addresses a growing demand for digital ride-hailing and logistics infrastructure in Ormoc City. By enabling residents to manage both passenger rides and small deliveries within a single mobile interface, the company aims to improve daily commuting efficiency and support local micro-businesses. The Maxim application is available for download on both Android and iOS devices.
