“This will also allow us to quickly get the riders onboarded so they can start delivering fast and with minimal direct contact.” “This means balancing the number of new riders we onboard with customers’ demand for food deliveries, to ensure we don’t have an oversupply of riders and protect rider earnings.”
“The amount offered for each delivery is shown in-app and riders have the freedom to accept or reject any delivery that is offered to them, without any penalty. Once completed, Deliveroo riders keep 100 per cent of the amount, along with any customer tips.” In response to CNA queries, Grab did not confirm whether it has seen an increase in the number of riders and drivers joining the GrabFood platform.
