Industrial city
city type
Zabrze is an industrial Silesian city with a mining heritage, and that shapes the order pattern here. Weekday lunches between 12 and 14 are reliably busy thanks to factory and office workers ordering in. Weekend evenings, especially Friday and Saturday from 18 to 22, are also worth working.
Glovo, Wolt, Uber Eats and Pyszne all operate in Zabrze. A practical approach is running Wolt, Uber Eats and Bolt Food together, accepting the best order, and pausing the others until you finish. Glovo always stays separate and requires booking shifts in advance.

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.
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. Glovo always runs separately because it requires shift booking and penalises missed slots. Multi-apping is the standard courier strategy — it eliminates idle time between jobs.
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.
Can students work as couriers?
Yes, courier work is one of the best part-time jobs for students. You choose when you work, so it fits around your timetable. People under 26 are exempt from income tax up to 85 528 zł per year and don't pay ZUS on civil contracts — almost everything you earn stays in your pocket.
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.
