Current technological development affect people’s habitual patterns in transportation habit. The higher the communitys’s mobility, the higher the community’s need for transportation. Mode choices of transportation, especially public transportation is also growing. One of the transportation mode that becomes an alternative and often used by the public is online transportation. The transportation mode that also utilizes technological development has been ex isted in Indonesia since 2010. Its increasingly rapid development also has its own problem, such as refusal from other conventional public transportation drivers i.e. conventional taxi drivers, motorcycle taxis, to fourwheeled public transportation because online transportation is considered as the cause of their eonomic downfall. However, drivers of online transportation, especially online motorcycle taxis, also face many problems, one of which is welfare. Therefore, there is a need for research about online motorcycle taxi drivers’ level of welfare after they have joined as an online motorcycle taxi driver partner. The method used are descriptive statistical analysis to explain the driver’s socio-economic characteristics, as well as spatial analysis to see the movement patterns and radius of service of the driver. Some aspects studied are social aspects, economic aspects, asset ownership aspects, health aspects, education and ICT aspects, and security aspects. The analysis results show that there is a change in level of welfare before and after becoming an online motorcycle taxi driver, with more than half respondents experiencing increased welfare. Even so, the drivers’ welfare is still threatened by the law and legal regulations such as limits on the total working hours per week and regulation related to tariff.
