city type
Silesia isn't one city but the fused Upper Silesian-Zaglebie Metropolis — Katowice, Sosnowiec, Gliwice, Bytom, Zabrze, Tychy, and more than a dozen neighbouring cities, where administrative borders stopped mattering for everyday traffic long ago. 2.2 million residents in dense development mean a steady, thick stream of orders all week, not just on weekends.
A courier in Silesia often works a zone covering several cities at once — jobs can take you from one town into the next without any clear border between them. That's the regional quirk: development is so continuous that the centre of one city flows smoothly into the next, and restaurants and customers are spread across the whole metro area.

Wolt GliwiceFrequently asked questions
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 to do if the customer doesn't answer the door?
Try calling through the app first — the customer's number is hidden, but the call goes through. At Bolt Food the rule is three contact attempts and ten minutes of waiting; at Uber Eats the app counts down seven minutes. The exact sequence is always shown in the app itself. Then report it to support — once they confirm, you either leave the order at the door or take it back to the restaurant. How that trip is paid is decided by the app's own support.
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.
What happens to your account if you take a long break?
Wolt expects activity: without deliveries your account goes inactive, and getting it back runs through your partner and only while the city is recruiting. On Glovo your rank drops if you skip more than a week, and the Excellence Score counts the last 28 days — after a pause your metrics start from a worse level (there are no slots to book in your city from 5 October 2026). Uber Eats has no known deactivation rule for downtime and sometimes sends a bonus quest to pull you back. The safest habit is one delivery every couple of weeks.
How do tips work and does the courier keep all of them?
Tips come on top of the delivery fee — Bolt Food states officially that the courier keeps 100%. Wolt also adds tips on top of the payment for the job. Uber Eats is the weak spot: since 2024 customers in Poland effectively have no way to tip through the app. Don't budget around tips — treat them as a nice extra rather than part of your rate.
