(it could be 2 payments per ride or drivers get batched payouts but w/e).
There's obviously bigger payment platforms (eg Stripe or GPay / Apple Pay or Amazon) but not all of us work in payments either
Uber, by comparison:
'Trips during the quarter grew 21% YoY to 2.8 billion, or approximately 30 million trips per day on average.'
That would be about 350 payments per second if load was evenly distributed.
