Requirements to Deliver For Postmates
The Postmates application process is straightforward. To become a Postmates driver, all you need is:
- Create an account with an email address and password
- Enter your basic information, including the city you drive in and the vehicle you use (if delivering with a car)
- You will also go through a standard background check (yes, you will need a social security number), but you will have a few more things to do before that process begins. It is where most drivers get confused. You’ll need to set up some things like direct deposit before Postmates takes you through the background check process. Be sure to follow their instructions:
- Review the fleet agreement
- Upload your profile picture
- Add your referral code
- Set up direct deposit
- Activate your Postmates card in your app once you receive your welcome kit
Note: some markets do not require a Postmates card.
In these cases, your welcome kit will be shipped after completing your first delivery.
You need to link your card, upload your photo, and download the Fleet application. After you have done that, a background check and the final part of the process begin. So, check your email often for the next steps and instructions.
