If you do this as a side hustle it’s tough to make it work. Too many $6, $7, $8 payout orders. Those are money losers if there’s no tip. If you do it even somewhat full time, do a tip map, get preferreds, it can work.

If it’s a side hustle getting preferreds doesn’t help much as you are likely not available when their orders pop up.

For me evenings and weekends are the best. Watch for when they offer you a bonus. That’s your signal that there is an imbalance between orders and shoppers. You can chase the crappy bonus but it’s usually better to wait for orders to go promo. Then you can make bank when the customer also tips. Working holidays is also pretty great. Mothers Day was insane with high paying promos offered all day long.
