Carry a Curb bag on the shifts you already ride. You keep your own apps, routes and hours, and we pay you for the screen on your back.

How it works

Four steps. Your riding stays the same.

  1. 01

    Apply

    Join the waitlist. When places open in your area, we’ll get in touch for a short chat and a few checks.

  2. 02

    Collect your bag

    Pick up your Curb bag, charged and ready. We’ll show you how to switch it on and off, and that’s all there is to it.

  3. 03

    Ride as normal

    Switch the bag on and work your usual shifts, for any app. The screen runs itself.

  4. 04

    Get paid

    We pay you £100 a week for carrying the bag, on top of what you earn from deliveries.

What you keep

Your work stays yours.

Your apps

Work for any delivery platform, or several. Curb isn’t tied to any of them.

Your routes

Go wherever the orders take you. We never tell you where to ride.

Your hours

Ride when you want. Switch the bag off when you finish.

What we ask

A few simple things.

  • Ride safely

    Follow the Highway Code, and put the road before the bag.

  • Never touch the screen while riding

    It runs itself. There are no buttons to press and no app to check.

  • Keep it charged

    Charge the bag between shifts, the same way you charge your phone.

  • Keep it clean

    Give the screen a wipe and look after the bag like the rest of your kit.

  • Tell us if something’s wrong

    If the bag is damaged, faulty or stolen, let us know straight away.

Privacy

Your location, in plain English.

The bag only records its location while it’s switched on.

We use that location for two things: showing advertisers where their ads played, and working out your pay. Switch the bag off at the end of your shift and recording stops. There are no cameras in the bag, so it never films you or anyone around you. Advertisers’ audience figures are estimated from where and when each ad played.

Questions

Rider FAQ

How much will I earn?

We pay £100 a week for carrying a Curb bag on the shifts you already ride. That’s on top of what you earn from deliveries, and you’ll know exactly how pay works before you collect a bag.

Which delivery apps can I work for?

Any. Curb isn’t linked to any delivery platform, so you can keep working for the apps you use now, including more than one.

Do I need a bicycle or a moped?

Either. We’re recruiting cyclists, e-bike riders and moped riders. Tell us what you ride when you join the waitlist.

Will I be employed by Curb?

No. You’re an independent contractor, and you keep your own apps, routes and hours. Carrying a Curb bag is a separate agreement between you and Curb, set out in the rider terms.

Do I need to do anything with the screen?

No. Switch the bag on at the start of your shift and off at the end, and the screen runs itself. Never touch it while you’re riding.

Does the bag track me?

Only while it’s switched on. We use its location to prove where ads played and to work out your pay. Switch it off and recording stops. There are no cameras in the bag.

What if the bag gets damaged or stolen?

Tell us straight away. We’ll explain exactly what happens and what you’re responsible for before you sign up.

When and where does Curb launch?

Curb is launching in London. Join the waitlist and we’ll contact you when places open in the areas you ride.

The full agreement is in the rider terms. For news and rider updates, see the Journal.
