Drivers Adding Deliveries to Existing City Travel

Verified drivers in European cities use spare capacity on regular routes to carry parcels while maintaining their own schedules.

Fitting deliveries into daily movement

Drivers already travelling between European cities can accept parcel jobs that align with their planned journeys. The platform matches senders with these existing routes rather than requiring new travel.

A driver posts availability by indicating start and end points. The system then shows matching delivery requests.

The escrow process from the driver side

Once a sender accepts a match, payment enters escrow. The driver sees the full amount and the 30% platform commission displayed upfront. Collection happens at the agreed point.

After delivery, the sender confirms receipt. This action releases 70% of the price to the driver.

Benefits of flexible route use

  • No need to alter primary travel plans.
  • Compensation for space that would otherwise remain unused.
  • Transparent breakdown of earnings before acceptance.

Drivers maintain control over which jobs they take. They can decline any request that does not suit their vehicle or timing.

Verification requirements

Only verified drivers appear to senders. Verification covers identity and vehicle details. This step precedes any job matching.

Distance-based pricing in practice

Fees reflect the actual distance between collection and delivery points. The €9 minimum applies when the calculated amount falls below that threshold. Drivers receive the same 70% share regardless of distance.

Managing multiple small jobs

Drivers can combine several short deliveries along one longer route. Each job uses separate escrow and confirmation steps. The platform shows cumulative earnings clearly.

Short paragraphs allow drivers to scan instructions quickly during travel planning.

City-specific considerations

Urban routes often feature frequent short segments. Drivers on these routes can accept parcels that fit between their main stops. The model supports this pattern without creating extra trips.

Confirmation and payment timing

Funds remain in escrow until the sender confirms delivery. This protects both parties. The driver receives payment only after that confirmation.

The 30% commission stays fixed and visible throughout the process. No additional charges appear after acceptance.

Record keeping for drivers

Each completed job generates a record of the route, price and confirmation. Drivers can review these records to understand patterns in their accepted deliveries.

The platform operates across multiple European cities using the same rules for escrow, verification and the 70/30 split.
