Oborniki sits on the Warta river, half an hour from Poznan, and plenty of residents commute there daily. Eighteen thousand people means a modest market: not many orders in a day, but barely any couriers either. The day revolves around people getting home from work, and weekends are noticeably stronger than the rest of the week.
Food spots sit downtown, around the market square and along the road running through town. Deliveries go to housing estates, single-family homes, and across the river to the other side of town. Some runs reach nearby villages with no restaurants of their own, where people order just as readily. Stores along the main road add grocery orders.

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.
Do you need a powerbank while working?
A powerbank is essential — apps with GPS drain your phone in 3–4 hours. Without a working phone you cannot accept orders or reach addresses. Pick a model with at least 10 000 mAh and fast charging. Keep a spare cable in your bag.
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.
Can you work without speaking Polish?
Yes — most apps support English, Russian and Ukrainian. Contact with restaurants is usually limited to showing the order number, and customers only see the delivery address. A few simple Polish phrases help at pickup but are not required. Fleet-partner support also operates in Russian and Ukrainian.
Can you work at night?
Yes, though the hours depend on the city. In Warsaw Bolt Food takes orders until roughly one in the morning; in other cities usually until 23:00–24:00, and in smaller towns until 22–23. Late in the evening there are fewer couriers on the streets, so there can be more orders per person. Handy for students and anyone combining delivery with another job.
