Q: How are tasks allocated to a courier partner?

Wolt’s algorithm offers delivery requests, ‘tasks’, equally to Courier Partners based only on your proximity to the pick-up location (i.e. restaurant or merchant), the vehicle type, and your current activity status (available for deliveries, busy with ongoing deliveries or offline). More information can be found on our public Transparency Report.

Exposing customers’ data privacy is a serious breach of the Service Agreement between Wolt and Courier Partners. It is also a break of trust that the customer has placed in our services.

Q: What does delivering through Wolt offer that a traditional delivery job does not?

Delivering with Wolt is all about flexibility and freedom. Courier Partners are free to take all the breaks whenever they would like to. What this means in practice: Wolt Courier Partners do not have to inform Wolt if they don’t want to go online and they can stay online/offline as long as they want to.

What is Wolt and how to become a courier partner?

Wolt is a platform that connects customers, restaurants, shops, and courier partners. 🙌 As a courier partner, you can use the Wolt app whenever it suits you and earn by delivering orders in your city.

The quality of your deliveries can directly impact your earnings. When customers are happy with the service they receive, they’re more likely to order again, and more orders mean more income. 🤑 That’s why delivering orders professionally and following the rules and guidelines is key to long-term success on the platform.

How and where do I hand in my documents?

Is it possible to do deliveries in multiple cities as a Wolt courier partner?

Is it possible to do deliveries in multiple countries as a Wolt courier partner?

Unfortunately transferring between Wolt countries is not possible (at least not yet, at this moment). Each country has its own legal requirements and thus, each country has its own onboarding processes. This means that you would need to apply to each country separately and start the application process from the beginning, even if you are already a Courier Partner in a different country. Your application will be processed as any other new application.

You can contact your current country’s team and ask them to end the cooperation and offboard your account. Then you can apply to new country using the same contact details (email address and phone number). You will not be able to apply with the same email address you are using unless your account is offboarded first.
