How driving Fetch works
- 1
Post a run
Set your departure window, origin and destination, what kinds of items you can carry, and whether you're going via a ferry. Takes about a minute.
- 2
Accept the requests that fit
Customer requests along your route appear in your dashboard. Pick the ones that work for your time, vehicle and detour tolerance.

Deliver and get paid
Mark each step done — collected, en route, delivered. Payouts land in your bank via Stripe, usually within a couple of working days.
Getting paid
Payouts run through Stripe Connect. Connect your bank account once — payments land automatically after each delivery.

Tips for a smooth run
- Pad your window. Better to under-promise than chase a late ferry.
- Message the customer if you're delayed — they appreciate it.
- Snap a quick photo at drop-off if there's no one in. Saves disputes.
- Use the destination notes — gates, sheds, side doors. Locals know what they mean.
