How delivery riders in Kenya can track income and expenses
A delivery rider may complete many small jobs in a day. Some payments come by Cash, some by M-PESA, and some may come through a platform or customer account.
The rider also has costs: fuel, repairs, airtime, data bundles, food, parking, protective gear, loan payments and maintenance.
Without records, a rider may feel busy but not know whether the work is profitable after expenses.
What delivery riders should record
- Delivery income by Cash and M-PESA.
- Platform or customer payments.
- Fuel costs.
