How the GoRoute courier referral program works
Last updated March 1, 2026
GoRoute's courier referral program lets you earn bonus money by inviting friends to join the platform as couriers. When someone signs up with your code and meets the requirements, you both benefit.
How to refer someone
Find your unique referral code in Account > Referrals. Share it via text, email, or social media using the built-in share button. The person you're referring must enter your code during their signup process — codes cannot be applied after an account is created.
Qualifying requirements
For you to earn the referral bonus, the new courier must:
- Complete the full signup process including background check approval.
- Complete a minimum number of deliveries within their first activation period — typically 30 deliveries within their first 30 days.
The exact requirements and bonus amounts vary by city and change periodically. Your referral screen always shows the current offer for your market.
Bonus structure
Referral bonuses typically range from $50 to $300 depending on your market and current courier demand. In many markets, the bonus is split — for example, you receive $150 and the new courier receives $150. This gives both parties an incentive. The specific terms are clearly displayed before you share your code.
Tracking your referrals
Go to Account > Referrals to see the status of everyone you've referred. You can track whether they've signed up, passed their background check, and how many qualifying deliveries they've completed. Once all requirements are met, the bonus is automatically added to your earnings.
Good to know
- There's no limit to how many people you can refer.
- You cannot refer someone who already has a GoRoute courier account.
- Referral codes must be entered at signup — they can't be added later.
- GoRoute may modify or pause the referral program at any time, but existing referrals in progress will be honored.
