Glovo Rider: Key Features and Benefits

  • Bonuses and a referral program (Refer a Friend) – extra money for your results and for referring friends.
  • Efficient order system that minimizes “idle” waiting time for orders.
  • Easy scheduling and a clear view of your hours worked and earnings.
  • 100% of tips go to the courier – tips are fully yours.
  • Flexible work model: you can set your own schedule and deliver when it suits you.

Each of these elements is officially communicated in Glovo/App Store/Google Play materials and has a direct impact on predictable weekly earnings.


How to Become a Glovo Courier Step by Step

  • Register in the Glovo Rider app (Android/iOS), fill in basic details, and complete simple onboarding steps. No experience is required.
  • Starting March 2025, Glovo refers to the courier app as “Glovo Rider” (previously known as “Glovo Courier”). 
  • After activating your account, set your availability in the schedule and start accepting orders in the app.

Tip: if you’re just starting out, choose 2–3 short slots (e.g., dinner times, weekends) and gradually extend your hours – it’s easier to catch the demand rhythm that way.

Payments, Tips, and Cash Orders

  • Tips are 100% yours (they’re not deducted from your payout).
  • For cash orders, the client pays you upon delivery; the amount will be settled in your next digital payout, so it’s worth carrying some cash during these jobs.
  • A transparent overview of earnings and hours in the app makes it easier to keep track of your work week.

Pro tip: keep a separate pocket or wallet for cash from deliveries so you don’t mix it with your own money. It makes settlement at the end of the day easier.


Scheduling & Demand: How to Set Up Your Week for Less Waiting

  • Plan your slots for when the city is “eating and ordering”: dinners (18:00–22:00), weekends, and bad weather.
  • Use schedule planning in the app and observe which hours consistently bring better throughput (orders/h).
  • The order system in Glovo Rider is designed to reduce time without orders – still, it’s worth working in areas with a high density of restaurants.

Equipment and Preparation for Your Shift

  • Smartphone with good battery + power bank, handlebar mount, lighting (bike/scooter).
  • Thermal bag and rain cover—reduce complaints and returns.
  • Two customer messages (templates): “I’m on site, entering in 1–2 min” and “Please come to entrance X (under the shelter).”

Cooperation with Avalon Logistics Group and Registration with Glovo

If you want to get started with Glovo with no paperwork or stress, choose to work with a certified partner Avalon Logistics Group—a good payroll partner truly makes a difference in your daily work and payouts.
Registering for Glovo takes place online:

  • fill out the form
  • complete document verification
  • optionally indicate collaboration with a partner
  • then a brief onboarding and bag pickup;

Remember, from 2025 the courier app is “Glovo Rider” (if you’re returning after a break, look for this name in the store). You don’t need a business license, health booklet, or permit—Glovo doesn’t require such documents, which really lowers the entry barrier. In practice, all you need is knowledge of Polish or English, your own means of transport (bike/scooter/car), and a smartphone with internet—enough to start riding and earning.

If you already have a different partner and wish to transfer, let us know—we’ll guide you step by step through the transfer so you don’t lose your slots or payment continuity. We focus on minimal formalities and a quick start—often even within 24 hours of contact, which is crucial during the season or when changing partners. And if you don’t have a vehicle, you can take advantage of our promotional rentals of e-bikes or scooters and take on orders without upfront investment.

Are tips entirely for the courier?

Yes, 100% goes to you.

Do I need to have cash?

Only for cash orders; the amount is later settled digitally.

Can I set my own schedule?

Yes, the app lets you plan your hours and track your earnings.

Is Glovo just food?

Glovo allows you to deliver various products and packages, not just meals.
