city type
Zagan has twenty-six thousand residents and a large military garrison that's visible every day. Add to that its history — a palace, a historic monastery complex, and a POW-camp museum drawing visitors from across Europe. The rhythm is calm and closely tied to the work week, with weekends clearly bouncing up, especially when weather keeps people indoors.
Food venues sit mostly around the market square and main streets. You'll deliver across the block estates, to homes beyond the Bobr river, and to addresses near the barracks. The town is compact, so most runs wrap up within a few minutes' ride, with the longest routes heading to the edges where development thins out.

Frequently 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, 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 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 your city is currently recruiting couriers — if it is, that's a couple of days. Your advisor checks this before you gather any paperwork.
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.
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.
Do you need a Polish bank account?
Yes. Bolt Food and Uber Eats ask for a bank account at sign-up, and that's where your settlement partner sends the money. To open one you need a PESEL and an ID document — banks deal with foreigners as a matter of routine. The partner pays out daily, weekly or monthly, plus on demand, including instant BLIK payouts you collect as cash at an ATM.
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.
