Earnings & payments
Everything about how you earn, when you get paid, and the tools to track both.

When you get paid
Wolt courier payouts and payslips are processed on the same schedule. Earnings are paid twice a month, and your payslip becomes available on the payout date.
Payouts & Payslips
• Earnings made from 1st–15th → Paid out on the 25th • Earnings made from 16th–31st → Paid out on the 10th
If the payout date falls on a weekend or bank holiday, payment will be processed on the last working day before.
You will receive your Wolt payout on your NemKonto account, which is connected to your CPR number. Remember that you need to be using a Danish bank account as your NemKonto to receive your payouts from Wolt.
Courier Partners receive their payslip on the same day as the payout. Payslips are sent directly to the Courier Partner’s e-Boks inbox.
If there are issues accessing e-Boks, Courier Partners should contact e-Boks support.

Taxes
Register Your Tax Card and Nemkonto 🚀 Before you get started with Wolt deliveries, here’s something important to take care of:
✅ Create your tax card with SKAT Without it, you may pay up to 55% tax on your earnings — ouch! It can take up to 2 weeks, so we recommend doing it as soon as possible. You can read more about your tax card on SKAT's website here and you can reach out to SKAT directly if you have any questions.
✅ Set up your Nemkonto (NemAccount) All your Wolt earnings will be transferred to your Nemkonto, so be sure to connect a bank account for smooth payments. You can set up your NemKonto right here or you can do it directly via your bank. Remember that you need to use a Danish bank account as a NemKonto for us to transfer your Wolt payouts.

Earning factors
Distance to the pickup
How far you have to travel to collect the order. A pickup across town earns more than one around the corner.

Delivery distance
Pickup to drop-off. The core of the fee — longer deliveries pay more.

Order type & size
A single coffee, a 20-item grocery haul and a pharmacy run aren't weighted equally. Bigger or more complex = higher fee.

Real-world conditions
Weather, traffic, parking difficulty. Tough conditions push the fee up so tough deliveries stay worth your time.

The fee you see is the minimum
Customers can tip you directly in cash or via app pre- or post-ordering. It’s a simple, convenient, and sincere way for customers to express their gratitude to our dedicated Wolt courier partners! Once the order has been received, customers will be able to leave a tip within 24 hours of delivery. Tips received via the app are considered taxable income. Please note that tipping is completely voluntary. Never ask customers to leave a tip after delivery! Our courier partners will receive 100% of the tips they receive. We are committed to ensuring that post-order tipping is a fair and transparent system
