Work for drivers and couriers in Poland: types of contracts, taxes, and payments without unnecessary routine

Working as a driver or courier in Poland means a stable income and a flexible schedule, but also a number of obligations. To work legally on the Uber, Bolt, Glovo, Wolt, and other platforms, you need to conclude one of the available contract options. For many newcomers, this process seems complicated, but when working with a settlement partner, most formalities are resolved faster and easier. In this article, we will analyze in detail the forms of cooperation, how payments are made, and how the settlement partner helps.

Forms of cooperation 

  1. Umowa Najmu is a vehicle rental agreement that allows you to legally receive payments and work through apps. 
  2. Umowa Zlecenia is an employment contract that allows you to be officially employed, pay for a state insurance policy and obtain a residence permit.
  3. B2B agreement - cooperation between two legal entities. Suitable for those who have JDG or S.P. Z.o.o.  

In all cases, the partner acts as a legal intermediary: he settles accounts with applications, prepares documents, transfers payments and helps with tax issues. For a driver or courier, this means less bureaucracy and more time for real work.

How payments are organized

One of the main advantages of working through a payment partner is transparent and regular payments. Qiwi Partner has its own application: in which you can:

  • see the current balance
  • view a detailed history of all charges and deductions
  • the ability to upload invoices for expenses to receive the 50% VAT bonus directly in the application
  • change the type of payment
  • speed up payments to your account  

Especially important is the option of daily or accelerated payments, which is especially important for those who value a service approach.

Support and security

The settlement partner provides not only payments but also information support in various situations. 

  • details of earnings and payments 
  • advice on paying taxes
  • assistance in legalization 
  • creating accounts for taxi or delivery work

The availability of a support service significantly reduces the time required to resolve such issues. For the driver or courier, this means confidence and the ability to focus on the job, not on correspondence with platforms.

Taxes and reporting

Official cooperation involves the payment of taxes. We, as a settlement partner, help with the calculation of the amount of ryczałt tax and pay the ZUS tax. The ryczałt tax is 8.5% and is paid monthly. You can find the amount of ryczałt in our application and our legalization department will help you to understand this process.

Checklist for driver and courier

Follow these simple rules:

  1. Keep track of the validity of documents and update them on time.
  2. Bring the entire set of documents required for the job (ID, medical certificate, psychological test, employment contract (if any) 
  3. Upload invoices in our app and get a refund (50% from VAT).
  4. Monitor the technical condition of the car to avoid unpleasant situations.

Frequently asked questions

  • Can I receive payments more than once a week? Yes, some settlement partners offer daily payments.
  • What should I do if the platform temporarily blocks my account? Contact the platform's support service, they will help you determine the reason for the block and further actions.
  • Where do I upload fuel and other invoices? In the Qiwi Partner app, the system will automatically take them into account when paying out earnings and credit a bonus.
