Delivering with Skip means you’ll make money for each delivery. The courier app will send you delivery ‘offers,’ which you can then review and decide if you’d like to complete the delivery. The fee up for grabs for each offer varies and you’ll be shown details of this in the app before accepting the offer. We pay the money you’ve made directly into your chosen bank account every week.

There's no obligation to use Skip-branded equipment. Feel free to use your own equipment, however, you must ensure that it meets our minimum safety requirements. If you have your own commercial-grade food delivery bag(s), you’ll be able to share details with us for approval during the sign-up process.

We mainly operate a closed network. This is to help make sure we maintain a balanced match between the number of available couriers and the anticipated volume of orders. This means we can try to avoid scenarios where an excess of couriers are online with insufficient orders to go around. It’s our way of trying to keep everybody busy and making money. Submitting your availability is easy. Clicking here will take you directly to the scheduling section in the courier app. Simply submit when you’d like to deliver by midnight every Wednesday and, the following day, we’ll email your schedule as well as update the My Schedule page in app. When things are busy, you might have the opportunity to spontaneously begin delivering by accessing the app without a booked run, referred to as “open runs.” The availability of open runs is not guaranteed so we recommend you submit your availability each week.

Please only apply in the zone you wish to deliver in. If your preferred zone is closed, we’re not able to transfer your account.
