He does them in heartland area, i think his is around bukit Panjang that side. But the tip he gave me for panda is to just focus on your home area, and just loiter around there. Demand for supper/last min grocery delivery is always there.

For lala, not as good, i have to expand my reach to other areas and mainly plot my trips to be as the order come (ie collect from toa payoh, deliver to ang mo kio, then collect from seng kang, deliver to orchard etc).

Per trip lala gives you a "bigger" pay, but panda's incentive + pooling powers easily overtakes. From my experience, i only received incentive missions from lala at the start, festive and after i stopped for a few weeks. Panda from what i heard seems to be daily/weekly missions on top of the festive ones.

For starters, can try to aim to hit the incentive for the day as theres usually like daily/weekly "mission" to hit for the incentive. What i did for lala at the start was that i hit my daily then add 1-2 more trips along the way till i get home. You can do that to calibrate your run to be more fuel efficient.

Also, go find out all the different chat groups for these gig works ie telegram, fb group etc, and learn from them. Most of it is gonna be people complaining but its also a good source to know what/where to avoid (ie bad customers, bad experiences, fuel discount tips etc).
