Cieszyn sits on the Czech border, facing Český Těšín, so the town runs on tourist and cross-border traffic. Summer adds day-trippers, while winter brings more orders thanks to the weather and fewer couriers on the streets.
Glovo and Uber Eats both operate here. Glovo pays cash immediately and runs on slots, so you handle it separately. Uber Eats you switch on flexibly when you have time for the centre. Two apps at once means fewer idle gaps between orders.

Frequently asked questions
How much can you earn as a food delivery courier?
Average rate is 30–50 zł per hour depending on city, time and weather. The best weekend evenings can pay 60–80 zł/h. Earnings depend on order volume, distances and active bonuses on the platform. Working 6–8 hours per day during peak windows produces a solid monthly income.
What documents do you need to work as a courier?
Basics: a valid ID or passport, PESEL number, and a Polish bank account for payouts. Non-EU foreigners also need a residence card, work-permit visa or UKR status (for Ukrainians). Cars and scooters require a driver's licence and vehicle papers. The whole verification runs online, usually through a fleet partner.
How does registration work and how long does it take?
You register online with a fleet partner — fill in a form, upload documents, sign the contract. The partner activates your account on the chosen platforms. The whole process takes 2–7 working days. Bolt Food and Uber Eats are fastest; Wolt and Glovo sometimes take longer due to verification. Once active, you can ride the same day.
Can you work for several apps at the same time?
Wolt, Uber Eats and Bolt Food combine easily — you accept the best order and pause the others while delivering. Glovo always runs separately because it requires shift booking and penalises missed slots. Multi-apping is the standard courier strategy — it eliminates idle time between jobs.
What to do if the customer does not answer the door?
Try calling through the app — the number is hidden but the call works. If they don't pick up for 5–8 minutes, send a message and contact support. After confirmation you can leave the order at the door or return it to the restaurant. You will be paid the full delivery fee.
How much does a thermal bag cost and where to buy one?
A standard thermal bag costs 80–200 zł depending on size. Glovo and Wolt often hand out branded bags after your first deliveries or for a small deposit. Generic ones are available on Allegro, OLX or directly from the fleet partner. A 9+ kg model is useful for large grocery orders.
What to do if the restaurant order is wrong?
Always check the order number on the receipt before leaving — staff mistakes happen regularly. If something is missing or wrong, ask the staff to fix it on the spot. If you only notice later, report it through the app chat — your rating won't suffer if you react quickly.
