Transparent Pricing in Peer to Peer Deliveries

A clear look at how the 30 percent commission operates within the established escrow and payout model.

The Platform Fee in Context

Moveo operates a peer-to-peer parcel marketplace where senders post deliveries and verified drivers already travelling the route carry them. The sender pays the agreed price up front into escrow. Once the sender confirms delivery the driver receives 70 percent of that price. The remaining 30 percent stays with the platform as commission. This split is shown transparently at the point of booking.

The €9 minimum price applies to all deliveries and the total charge is calculated on a distance-based rate. Senders see the full breakdown before funds enter escrow. No additional hidden charges are added after acceptance.

What the Commission Covers

The platform handles escrow release only after sender confirmation. It also maintains the verification process that qualifies drivers for the network. These steps ensure funds move securely between parties without direct transfer.

Distance-based pricing remains consistent regardless of who carries the parcel. The commission portion supports the infrastructure that matches routes and holds payments until both sides complete the required steps.

Practical Steps for Senders

  • Enter parcel details and route to receive an instant distance-based quote.
  • Review the displayed total including the transparent 30 percent platform share.
  • Place funds into escrow at booking.
  • Confirm receipt to trigger the 70 percent release to the driver.

Small businesses can use this structure to budget deliveries without surprise costs. The minimum €9 threshold protects against very short uneconomic trips.

Practical Steps for Drivers

Drivers view the same distance-based price and know the 70 percent payout amount in advance. They accept only routes that align with existing travel plans. After confirmation the platform processes the release.

The model keeps all transactions within the same framework whether the parcel is small or bulky. Verification and escrow remain the core platform functions tied to the commission.

Summary of the Model

The 30 percent commission is fixed and visible. It is not adjusted per delivery. Senders and drivers operate under the same rules across European routes. This approach maintains the escrow system and driver verification without altering the quoted price after booking.
