Silesia is Poland's largest agglomeration after Warsaw — the Górnośląsko-Zagłębiowska Metropolia (GZM) gathers 2.2 million residents across a dozen densely connected cities: Katowice, Sosnowiec, Gliwice, Bytom, Tychy, Zabrze, Ruda Śląska, Chorzów, Dąbrowa Górnicza, Mysłowice, Siemianowice Śląskie, Bielsko-Biała, Rybnik and more. All delivery platforms operate here.
For a courier Silesia is a distinctive market: Bolt Food and Wolt register through a common 'Śląsk' cluster (so one registration lets you work across the whole GZM), while Glovo has separate city positions. After registration you can either work in one city or move between neighbouring ones — distances are short and the road network is dense.

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.
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.
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.
How quickly can you start earning after registering?
Bolt Food and Uber Eats activate accounts the fastest — often within 1–2 days. Wolt and Glovo take a bit longer because of verification. Once you have access to the app, you can take your first order the same day. The faster you complete your documents, the sooner you start.
