Kostrzyn nad Odrą is a 17,000-resident town right on the German border. Glovo operates as the only delivery platform, which means minimal competition for slots for you. The border proximity creates steady traffic related to trade and cross-border movement.

The biggest boom comes in early August during the Pol'and'Rock Festival (the former Przystanek Woodstock). Up to half a million people arrive in town, restaurants run nonstop, and orders are so plentiful you can easily earn twice your usual monthly income. It pays to prepare ahead — slots fill up fast.

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.
Which transport is best for courier work?
In big city centres a bicycle beats a car because of traffic and paid-parking zones. A scooter is the sweet spot during peak hours. A car works on the outskirts and for large orders from 9 kg up. An e-scooter is great in compact centres for short distances.
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.
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.
How does the Glovo bonus system work?
Glovo adds bonuses for working peak hours, bad weather and completing a target number of deliveries in a given period. Bonus amounts vary by city and week. Active promotions show up in the earnings tab — check before you book a shift.
