{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"How is my pay calculated for each delivery?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Your payout is calculated by the mile between pickup and drop-off, factoring in the service level and vehicle type selected for the job. You see the full payout before you accept, so there's never a guessing game."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"When do I get paid?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"With Instant Pay, you can access your earnings within minutes of completing a delivery, instead of waiting for a scheduled payout."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Is there a minimum payout for short deliveries?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Dispatch offers a higher minimum payout than most passenger-based rideshare apps, so even short trips are worth accepting."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Do I have to drive exclusively for Dispatch to get paid well?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"No. There is no exclusivity requirement. You can drive on your own schedule, though drivers who focus mainly on Dispatch tend to see the most consistent earnings."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are there any hidden fees or deductions?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"No. What you see before you accept a delivery is what you earn. There are no hidden fees, surprise deductions, or complicated pay formulas."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Am I covered by insurance while making deliveries?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Every delivery completed through Dispatch is backed by commercial liability insurance, so drivers can focus on the job with confidence."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Do I keep tips?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Tipping is not built into the Dispatch system and is never expected, but if a customer tips a driver directly, that money is theirs to keep."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are tolls included in my payout?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. Dispatch pays drivers for tolls on the calculated route from pickup to drop-off."}}]}
