Multi-app driving
Running two or three platforms at once without losing track of any of it.
Guides
What each platform insures, and what it leaves to you
Several apps give you free accident cover, and some pay out when you are ill or have a baby. None of them insures your car. Here is what each platform provides, when it applies, and the policy you still have to buy yourself.

When each app pays you, and why the date matters for tax
Most apps pay weekly, on different days, with a fee to get it sooner. Evri pays monthly. The pay date decides how much cash you need in reserve and, at the start and end of the year, which tax year the money falls in.

What the platforms tell HMRC about your earnings
Since 2024 every delivery and ride app has to collect your tax details and report what it paid you to HMRC once a year. There is no minimum for services. Here is what is reported, when, why it will not match your return, and what to do with the copy you are sent.

Getting your earnings statements out of each app
Every platform holds your earnings history somewhere and none of them keeps it forever. Download a statement every month, in the app or on the partner web portal, and keep it outside the app. A deactivated account is an account you cannot get history out of.

Which miles the app counts, and which HMRC counts
A delivery app measures the miles it pays you for, which is usually the distance from pickup to drop. HMRC lets you claim every business mile you drove, including getting to the pickup, waiting, repositioning and returning. The app figure is almost always the smaller one.

Running two or three delivery apps at once - whether it is allowed, whether it pays, and how to keep records that still make sense at tax time.

Deliveroo, Uber Eats, Just Eat and Stuart: how they really differ
The four food apps pay per order, but they differ on almost everything else: whether you can log on when you like, whether waiting is paid, what declining costs you, when the money arrives and what they insure. Here is the comparison on the things that change your week.

Comparing platforms on real net hourly
No platform pays a fixed rate, so the honest answer is that it depends on your area, your car and your hours. What can be compared is the shape: private hire has the highest gross and the highest costs, food delivery the lowest of both, and parcel work sits between them.
