Selecting Routes and Time Windows to Increase Driver Income
Drivers using the platform can focus on distance-based pricing by choosing longer journeys and popular departure times to maximise their share of each delivery.
Understanding the Distance-Based Model
The platform calculates payments according to the distance of each route. Drivers receive 70 percent of the sender's payment once delivery is confirmed, with the 30 percent platform commission shown at the time of acceptance. The minimum price per delivery stands at nine euros.
Because earnings scale with distance, selecting routes that cover greater kilometres produces higher payouts per trip. Short local journeys may meet the minimum but deliver lower overall returns after fuel and time costs.
Matching Available Journeys to Existing Travel
Drivers already planning longer trips can add deliveries without extra mileage. The system matches parcels to journeys that are already underway, so a driver travelling between cities can carry items along the same path.
Reviewing the listed routes each day allows drivers to identify opportunities that align with their schedule. Accepting multiple deliveries on one longer route spreads fixed costs across several payments.
Timing Windows and Demand Patterns
Certain departure times attract more sender postings. Early morning and late afternoon slots often coincide with business shipments and personal moves. Drivers who keep those windows open in their availability can receive more offers on the same route.
The platform shows all active postings with their start and end points, so drivers can filter by time before committing. Blocking out consistent windows each week helps build a pattern of accepted deliveries.
Practical Steps for Route Selection
- Check the map view for routes exceeding 100 kilometres when possible.
- Note the listed price before acceptance to confirm the 70 percent share.
- Combine two or more parcels heading in the same direction when the app permits.
- Avoid routes that require major detours unless the added distance is compensated in the price.
Drivers who track their accepted routes over several weeks can identify which corridors and times produce the most consistent earnings under the distance-based structure.
Record Keeping and Confirmation
Once a delivery is completed, the sender confirms receipt and the 70 percent share is released. Keeping simple notes on route length, time window and confirmation speed helps drivers repeat successful choices.
The transparent commission display means drivers always know their net amount before starting the journey. This clarity supports decisions about which postings to accept.
