Estimate

What a week could look like.

Choose your hours and where you'll deliver. In the app, every delivery shows its pay before you accept it.

Where you'll mostly deliver

An estimate, not a promise of work or earnings. Proposed pilot rates: $4.25 plus $0.60 per km for each delivery, topped up to the Ontario minimum wage ($17.95 an hour) for your engaged time on each order. We assume about 14 minutes plus 2 minutes per km for each delivery and 6 minutes between orders, and that there are orders the whole time you're online, which early on there won't always be. Before tips, fuel and other costs.

How will you deliver?

Everyone

  • A recent iPhone or Android phone for Udug Driver
  • Government photo ID and a selfie, for a one-time identity check
  • A Canadian bank account for weekly payouts

Car

  • A valid Ontario driver's licence
  • The car's registration and plate. Changing your plate later is reviewed
  • Personal auto insurance with a delivery-use endorsement. Many personal policies exclude paid delivery, so a pink slip alone isn't enough

Bicycle or e-bike

  • A helmet. Ontario requires one on an e-bike, and for cyclists under 18; we ask everyone to wear one
  • A front light and a rear light or reflector for riding after dark
  • E-bikes must meet Ontario's e-bike rules, and riders must be 16 or older

On foot

  • Comfortable shoes and a bag that keeps orders upright
  • Short trips near you: we offer walkers deliveries that are walkable

A person reviews every application before any work is offered. Rides need more, set by each city, when they open.

Thinking about rides?Carrying passengers needs more, set by each city: for example a clean driving record, rideshare insurance and a vehicle safety certificate. We'll guide you through it when rides open where you live.

Questions

Driving, answered.

Is Udug Driver a separate app?
Yes. Customers use the Udug app; drivers and couriers use Udug Driver. You can create your driver account on the web today.
When do I get paid?
Weekly, to your bank. In Canada payouts go by Interac e-Transfer; in the United States through Stripe. You can also cash out when you choose.
Can I carry riders as well?
Not yet. Rides open in each city only after Udug holds that city's ride-hailing licence, and drivers will need to meet that city's extra requirements. We'll tell you when it opens.
How long does approval take?
Every application is reviewed by a person before you receive any work. If we need more from you, the app will ask.
