A real pay floor.
Every hour you're
on a delivery.
Since 17 August 2026, Australian law guarantees on-demand delivery riders a minimum hourly rate for the time they're actively completing a delivery. Swoot pays it, in full, every week.
Your earnings floor per engaged hour
"Engaged time" is the period from accepting a delivery to completing it. Full detail on how we calculate and pay this.

If you're in Robinvale or Euston through the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme, you are almost always tied to your approved employer and generally cannot take other paid work under your visa conditions. Taking on delivery work could put your visa and your employer's approval at risk.
Please check your visa conditions, or ask your employer, before you apply. We would rather you ask first than run into a problem later.
Leave your details and we'll be in touch to run through eligibility and set up your account.
