Many people use online food delivery platforms and are well aware of using these apps to get their desired food at home. However, have you ever wondered how these apps work for delivery partners? This job role is relatively new and only growing, as we are seeing an increase in the use of food distribution apps. In a recent Reddit Post, a 20 -year -old college student claims to work as a part -time “delivery partner for Swigi in New Delhi”, held the AAMA session and invited Redditors to “ask anything that makes you eager about the other side.”
Many people seized the opportunity and dropped several questions on monthly earnings, why the delivery partner started this work and some of his worst experiences. To keep an eye:
A user asked the “average order delivery price per km”. The delivery partner said that the base price is Rs 20 per order. “In addition, you are paid accordingly:
- 25 rupees = 1.5 km order
- 35 rupees = 3.2 km order
- 65 rupees = 5.5 km order
Usually take a thick estimate of Rs 7.5 per kilometer. (This is only for New Delhi, different places have separate pay structures and are usually very less than this) “”

Sharing his monthly earnings in another comment, the delivery partner said, “I only work in a month” 6000 “on Saturday and Sunday, but the riders giving all day usually earn somewhere between Rs 1000-1500 a day.”
While sharing why he started this job, the Reditor wrote, “My only purpose of working was to earn low pocket money in the beginning, but later moved to pay his college fees,” adding, “as I am 20 years old, I am enjoying my age, partying, party, but I think I think I am trying to reduce it for my mother.”
