How much does an Uber Eats courier earn and how much does Glovo earn?
What factors do we consider when choosing a job? There are several aspects to consider. Typically, we value a pleasant atmosphere, both mentally and physically, and a job that aligns with our interests. Of course, money is also important (and for some, the most important) – whether you are a courier, driver, baker, or footballer, everyone wants to earn well.
Especially for you, we have prepared a comparison of earnings in two food delivery apps beloved by couriers. How much does an Uber Eats courier earn? How much does a Glovo courier earn? You'll find out by reading this article.
Earnings at Uber Eats
Before we get into specifics, we need to clarify a few things that truly affect earnings at Uber Eats. The most important thing is that in this app, you work without a fixed schedule. You don't set hours or days in advance when you want to fulfill orders – you can decide on your work spontaneously and open the app whenever you have time. In Uber Eats, you can work with any mode of transportation – it's up to you whether you choose a bicycle, scooter, or car.
As you probably guessed, earnings at Uber Eats depend on how many deliveries you make. Take this into account when choosing your mode of transportation. The more time you dedicate to deliveries and the more orders you deliver to satisfied customers, the more you'll earn.
In Uber Eats, you are paid per delivery, but you can also count on multipliers. And this is the best part! Thanks to multipliers, you can earn up to 1.5 times more on each order. So, let's say the order is worth $20, but you have a 1.5 multiplier (just multiply). Thanks to the multiplier, instead of $20, you'll receive $30!
You can also increase your Uber Eats earnings through quests and promotions that may be waiting for you in the app from time to time.
Earnings at Glovo
So, how does it work at Glovo? The main difference is that in this app, you work on a schedule. However, you don't have to worry because the schedule is not set for the entire month. You reserve slots twice a week and work when you have time – without long-term commitments or changing plans. Of course, you can also check the Glovo app every day and book slots that have become available. We recommend regularly checking the calendar because it's an opportunity for additional earnings!
At Glovo, you work on a schedule, so you are paid an hourly rate. But that's not all! Glovo couriers can also expect various types of bonuses! It's worth being engaged in your work because bonuses will be added to your account if you deliver during peak hours, in adverse weather conditions, or if the customer changes the delivery location after you've already picked up the order. Tips and high ratings in the app? Great, that also affects your rate.
