Can A Deliveroo Rider Earn $6000/Mth?



Where on earth can you find a starting job that pays you $6000. Honestly, it’s too good to be true. To get a clearer picture, FoodninjaSG Team interviewed a few deliveroo riders to get their idea and opinion on the job. The team is grateful for all interviewees time and contribute.

Below is the result we got from the rider.

  • Mode of vehicle: Bicycle
  • 6 days a week
  • 11 hours a day
  • Central area (Tanjong Pagar)
  • Transportation Fee: $1.69/Trip
  • Food Allowance: $5/Day

Motorcycle
Bicycle/ E-Bike
Per Docket
SGD 6
SGD 5


The basic pay depend on the mode of transportation the rider used for delivery. For every delivery, he receives SGD5. This is excluding the incentive he is entitled during the peak hours.


Mon - Fri
Sat - Sun
11am - 2pm
SGD 1.5
SGD 1.5
5pm - 9pm
SGD 1.5
SGD 3


We did a simple calculation and it is possible to earn up to $24- 27/hr. However, this can only happen on certain timing like Saturday and Sunday 5.30pm to 9pm.

Below is the chart of a breakdown of how a week schedule goes for him. The number ‘1, 2 & 3’ represents the amount of order he delivered in that particular timing. Disclaimer: This is an estimate earning and should be taken as a guide only.

Monthly Salary After Deduction

= $2565 ($8.96/hr)


In conclusion,

It is possible to earn ($2265 - $2865) if you work hard enough. Even though it’s a far cry from the initial $6000, I still think that it’s a well paid job for someone who doesn’t have work experience, skill or education background.

Beside getting a high pay salary, there are a few benefits that comes with being a deliveroo cyclist.

1. You won't be bossed around
2. You get to plan your own work schedule
3. Flexible working hours
4. Cycling helps you to keep you fit. In other words, deliveroo pays you to exercise

The bad part of being a full time deliveroo rider is that there is no career progression. It is unlikely to have promotion or salary raise. If you're thinking of switching job after working for a few years, your experience as a delivery man in that period of time will not look good on the resume (unless you are looking for another delivery job but with different company).
