Driver Surplus

Driver Payment Breakdown

Driver payment consists of:

• Delivery fee — Amount charged to customer.

• Driver surplus — Additional amount set.

Total driver payment per delivery = Delivery fee + Driver surplus

Driver surplus can be set to negative values (e.g., -€1.00, -€2.00). This results in lower driver payment than delivery fee.

Example Calculation

Driver Surplus is set to €1.00. Driver is assigned three cash orders (Orders 1, 2, and 3) and one paid order (Order 4):
