How to Earn Money Walking in Singapore — No Vehicle Needed

What if your daily walk could earn you money? In Singapore, it can. Walking delivery platforms let you earn from S$3 per trip by carrying parcels between nearby locations — on foot.

What is Walking Delivery?

Walking delivery is exactly what it sounds like. Instead of a motorcycle rider or van driver, you — a regular person on foot — pick up a parcel from one location and walk it to another nearby. Most deliveries are within 1-3 km, taking 15-40 minutes.

How Much Can You Earn?

| Parcel Size | Per Delivery | Distance Bonus | |---|---|---| | Light (under 3 kg) | S$3.00 | +S$0.70/km beyond 1 km | | Medium (3-5 kg) | S$4.00 | +S$0.70/km beyond 1 km | | Heavy (5-8 kg) | S$5.50 | +S$0.70/km beyond 1 km |

Senders can also add a priority fee (up to S$300) that goes 100% to you.

Example earnings:

3 light parcels in your neighbourhood = S$9-12
2 heavy parcels with 2 km distance each = S$12.40
A busy afternoon with 5 deliveries = S$15-30+

There's no cap on how much you can earn. It depends on how many jobs you accept and the distances involved.

What You Need to Start

A smartphone
Be at least 16 years old
A bank account (for FAST payouts)

That's it. No vehicle, no commercial licence, no special equipment.

What You Don't Need

No vehicle — walking only
No uniform — deliver in whatever you're wearing
No shifts — work when you want
No minimum hours — deliver one parcel or twenty
No exclusivity — use other platforms at the same time
No experience — anyone can walk

Who is This For?

Students: Between classes, earn enough for lunch with one delivery.

Retirees: Stay active, earn supplemental income, and connect with your neighbourhood. Walking 2-3 km per delivery is good exercise.

Stay-at-home parents: Accept a job while the kids are at school. Flexible hours mean you're never locked in.

WFH workers: Take a break from your desk. A 20-minute delivery is better than scrolling your phone.

Anyone who walks daily: If you're already walking to the MRT, the kopitiam, or the park — you might as well earn while you walk.
