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
Things that don't change your fee or task access
Customer discounts
Promotions are paid by Wolt, not deducted from your fee.
Customer ratings
Wolt doesn't use courier ratings for task allocation.
ETA estimates
Delivery-time predictions are shown to customers — they don't affect your fee.
Rejected tasks
No penalties. No score. The offer just moves to another courier.
