Daily & Weekly Payment Options

InPost offer flexible payment options to all Self Employed delivery drivers, giving you the supplier the option to access earnings from the very next day via an app provided by our early access partner, Onsi or alternatively, suppliers can join the weekly payment cycle scheme, which kicks in following 2 weeks of completed delivery services.

We have plenty of parcels that need delivering and collecting from stores

There are plenty of parcels to deliver meaning the earning opportunity is in your hands. The majority of our parcels are small weighing up to a maximum of 15kg. You can realistically deliver and collect between 16-25 parcels an hour depending on the area and your experience, for 6 days a week. The more you deliver, the more you earn with the opportunity to take more parcels and boost your revenue.

We'll give you freedom and flexibility

The Life of Delivery Driver

Each day is what you make it. You can plan your own route, which will keep things fresh and interesting. And at each delivery or doorstep, use your mobile to scan parcels and make sure they're safely received by the customer, so there's no difficult technology for you to get to grips with.
