Deliver food with Caviar, one of the fastest-growing food delivery apps on the market
Perfect for: The hustling food delivery driver who wants to deal with premium restaurants and clientele
Minimum age: 18
As its name leads on, Caviar is a slice of the good life.
Caviar, which launched in 2012 in San Francisco, is a premium on-demand restaurant delivery service that connects consumers with the best restaurants in town.
As a delivery driver, you’ll be taking orders via the Caviar app, driving to trendy restaurants to pick up orders, and dropping them off to customers in your city.
This delivery option is great for exploring the finest grub your city has to offer while on the clock making money.
This UK-based delivery company is a great alternative to Grubhub, Uber Eats, and DoorDash. Not available everywhere, but where it is, it is worth checking out
Perfect for: Gig workers based out of the U.K., Europe, and a few other miscellaneous countries
Minimum age: 18
Deliveroo is another on-demand restaurant delivery service that’s headquartered in London.
Think of it as the U.K.’s version of Grubhub, Uber Eats, or DoorDash.
Similar to these services, you’ll be taking orders through the app, driving to restaurants, and delivering orders to make money.
The catch is that Deliveroo is primarily a U.K. company and doesn’t service the United States.
If you’re located in the U.K. or one of the other 13 countries it operates in, then by all means, look into signing up.
Drizly acts as a broker between customers and thousands of stores nationwide. Applying is simple, and so is the delivery process. This is a great niche that many drivers don't take full advantage of
Perfect for: Gig workers who are looking for something a little different
Minimum age: 21
Drizly is unlike every other delivery service on this list on a few different fronts.
First off, Drizly is an on-demand service that delivers beer, wine, and liquor.
As a driver, these are the only products you’ll be responsible for delivering.
What also makes this service different is that drivers aren’t employed by Drizly.
Instead, they’re employed by the partner liquor stores that determine your rate of income.
Favor is a great way to change up the delivery game. Instead of delivering just food, Favor gives a chance to deliver a wide variety of other options, such as clothing, groceries, and everything in between
Perfect for: Texas-based delivery drivers who are up for delivering anything from A-to-Z
Minimum age: 18
Introducing Favor, the Lone Star State’s own on-demand delivery service.
Favor is an all-in-one delivery solution that brings customers groceries, pizzas, clothing, and nearly anything else you can dream up.
What makes Favor different is that they make sure everyone knows how fast they get deliveries to consumers.
On average, Favor deliveries are completed in about 35 minutes.
Oh, and by the way, you can only work for Favor if you live in Texas since this is the only state they operate in.
That’s convenient if you’re in cities like Dallas, Austin, or Houston, but move on if you’re looking for employment in other cities across the U.S., like Denver, Chicago, or Atlanta.
Another unique delivery option is GoPuff, a company that specializes in convenience items like snacks, personal hygiene items, and more. Customers have no problem paying for convenience, which makes this a great option to add to your delivery toolbox
Perfect for: Drivers who seek steady and consistent deliveries from one warehouse location with drop-off locations no more than 30 minutes away
Minimum age: 21
When it comes to convenience store items, GoPuff has this niche locked down.
GoPuff specializes in convenience items like snacks, drinks, cleaning products, personal hygiene items, and anything else you’d find in a typical convenience store like 7-Eleven.
While this might sound like it crosses over into similar services like Postmates — which it does — GoPuff distinguishes itself for having its own warehouses in operating cities.
That means that instead of driving to convenience stores, you’ll drive to a GoPuff warehouse to pick up items.
You won’t need to worry about crazy drives since GoPuff promises that your delivery route will be no more than 30 minutes away from the warehouse.
The leading food delivery platform in the nation, Grubhub processes an astonishing 460,000-plus orders every single day and serves almost 18 million active diners.
This is great news for you as it promises a steady stream hungry diners for you to make money from.
Since it’s the largest on-demand restaurant delivery service, you’ll likely be able to find Grubhub in your city.
Grubhub is a great place to start if you want to get your feet wet in the delivery service space.
Postmates is rapidly evolving into the "everything delivery" super-app. Deliver not only food, but groceries, packages, and much more
Perfect for: Those who want to stay busy and work all hours of the day
Minimum age: 18
Similar to Favor, Postmates is an all-in-one delivery platform.
Think of it as every single service on this list all rolled up into one.
As a Postmates courier, you’ll encounter deliveries of all kinds.
You can expect to frequent restaurants during lunch and dinner rushes, grocery hauls over the weekend, alcohol deliveries on a Friday night, and miscellaneous items like convenience items and office supplies any other time throughout the week.
With the breadth of Postmates’ delivery services and the extensive coverage it has from Los Angeles to New York, you’ll definitely be able to keep busy as a courier.
This gig is great for anybody, especially existing Uber rideshare drivers looking to fill downtime with another delivery option. If you can deliver people safely, you can probably excel at delivering food too
Perfect for: Uber drivers looking to make the transition into the food delivery game
Minimum age: 19 to drive, 18 if you deliver by bike or foot
If you mastered the rideshare business and continue to be a dominant force in urban mobility, what would you do next?
In Uber’s case, they decided to expand their services into the food delivery space with Uber Eats.
Uber Eats is an on-demand restaurant delivery service that Uber launched to compete with the other top dogs of Grubhub, Postmates, and DoorDash.
Uber was on the sidelines watching the food delivery service boom and decided they wanted a piece of the action.
Since it launched, Uber Eats continues to eat up market share and is quickly becoming a popular option for hungry consumers.
This should definitely be part of your consideration set when deciding which delivery team to join.
