If you've ever considered driving with an on-demand platform, you know the perks:
But passenger-focused ride-share apps have challenges: unpredictable hours, confusing pay structures, and late nights dealing with people. Dispatch is different. We're built for delivery pros, independent drivers focused on reliable, package-based deliveries, with pay you can see and trust before you ever accept a job.
Dispatch is an on-demand delivery network that connects businesses with Delivery Pros like you to move packages quickly and efficiently. With the Dispatch App, you'll receive delivery opportunities tailored to your location, vehicle, and availability through our Smart Order Matching system, so you spend less time searching and more time earning.
Here's how it works:
With Smart Order Matching and Instant Pay, Dispatch makes every part of the delivery experience faster, simpler, and more reliable.
We believe delivery pros deserve predictable, transparent pay, and that's exactly how Dispatch works. Every delivery shows your payout upfront, before you accept, factoring in distance, location, delivery urgency, and vehicle type. No guessing, no surprises.
We also offer a higher minimum payout than most passenger-based apps, so even short deliveries are worth your time. Most deliveries happen during standard business hours, so you can plan your schedule and income without relying on late-night surge pricing.
And with Instant Pay, your earnings are available when you are. Access your money within minutes of completing a job, instead of waiting for a scheduled payout.
Every delivery you complete is backed by commercial liability insurance provided by Dispatch, so you can focus on earning with confidence.
As a Delivery Pro, you're in charge. You decide when, where, and how much you work. There's no requirement to drive exclusively with Dispatch, although the top drivers on our network tend to find the most success when they're mainly focusing on Dispatch deliveries.
There are no hidden fees, surprises, or complicated pay formulas. With Dispatch, what you see is what you earn, and how much you make is up to you.
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.
With Instant Pay, you can access your earnings within minutes of completing a delivery, no more waiting for a scheduled payout.
