Step 2: Accept Delivery Assignments

How to Get Deliveries

Once you're approved, you'll start receiving delivery assignments based on your location and availability.

Receiving Assignments

Delivery assignments are created when a vendor selects you for their order:

  • Vendors choose agents whose vehicle matches the job requirements (motorcycle, car, van)
  • Keep a competitive price per km and strong completion rate to stay on vendor shortlists
  • Complete every delivery you take to remain eligible for future invitations
  • You'll receive a notification as soon as a vendor confirms you for their order

Assignment Details Include:

  • Pickup address (vendor location)
  • Delivery address (customer location)
  • Delivery fee (what you'll earn)
  • Distance to travel
  • Package details and special instructions
  • Customer contact information

Accepting Assignments

Expectations once a vendor assigns a delivery to you:

  • Vendors may set you as their default agent—every new order will route to you automatically
  • Keep your availability and pricing current before vendors rely on you for their deliveries
  • Deliver every assigned order promptly; declining after selection risks losing the partnership
  • Communicate immediately if an emergency prevents completion so the vendor can reassign

Delivery Zones

You can set your preferred delivery zones in your agent dashboard. You'll primarily receive assignments in areas you've marked as available.
