Frequently asked questions
- What does delivering using Uber offer that traditional delivery driver jobs don’t?

- Can I deliver using the Uber Eats app and also be a food delivery driver for a restaurant or another delivery app?
Down Small Yes. You can keep doing food delivery jobs, courier jobs, or delivery with other apps and also get paid to deliver using Uber Eats in your free time with your own vehicle. Whether you deliver using a car, bike, or your feet; whether you’re a catering driver, taxi driver, or truck driver, or you drive using another rideshare app, or any other food delivery service worldwide—we welcome you to the Uber platform.
