Niepolomice has twelve thousand residents just outside Krakow — a town in its own right, but tightly bound to the metropolis: some orders come from people commuting to Krakow, others from tourists visiting the royal castle and the Niepolomice Forest. Traffic stays steady through the week and rises on weekends and in summer, when the castle and nearby trails draw the most visitors.
Couriers work mainly around the market square and the streets nearest it, where most restaurants are located, and also deliver to housing estates growing alongside the economic zone that keeps attracting new residents and businesses. Summer adds orders tied to tourist traffic around the castle, boosting business outside the usual mealtime hours.

How much can you earn as a food delivery courier?
You typically take home 25–55 zł an hour depending on the city, time and weather — that is after deductions, not gross. On Uber Eats in heavy rain or snow it can reach 60–80 zł/h: fewer couriers are out and the orders pile up. Your result depends on how many orders you accept, the distances and the bonuses running in that app. You see the rate for every job in the app before you accept it.
What documents do you need to work as a courier?
Basics: a valid ID or passport, a 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). For a car or scooter you also need a driving licence and vehicle papers. The whole verification runs online, usually through a settlement partner.
How does registration work and how long does it take?
You sign up online with a settlement partner — fill in the form, upload your documents, sign the contract. The partner then activates your account in the apps you chose. Bolt Food usually the same day or the next one, Uber Eats within 24–72 hours. With Wolt and Glovo the timing depends on whether they are currently recruiting couriers in your city — if they are, it usually takes a few days. Your consultant will check this before you gather any paperwork.
What should you do if your vehicle breaks down or you crash mid-delivery?
Look after yourself first and call for help if you need it — the order can wait. Then message app support: the job gets cancelled or handed to another courier, and on Glovo you can ask a second courier to collect the food for you. Don't log out — platform insurance only covers you while you are online. If you rent your vehicle from the settlement partner, servicing and a replacement car are included in the rental.
Do you need experience to become a courier?
No experience required. You need a phone, a means of transport, a thermal bag and a basic feel for the city — the app teaches you the rest. The first 1–2 days can feel chaotic (no-lift buildings, confusing addresses), but after a week the routine clicks. Everyone started from zero.
Does weather affect the number of orders?
It really does. Rain, snow and cold push orders up because people stay home. Many couriers also stop working in bad weather, which means more deliveries for those who go out. Get a proper rain jacket and waterproof phone covers — they pay for themselves in one shift.
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. In your city from 5 October 2026 Glovo runs without slot booking, so combining it with other apps is easier than it used to be: you are not tied to a reserved window. Just remember that on Glovo you don't turn orders down — declines can cost you the account, so it is more practical to switch between apps than to keep two active at once.
