• DISCLAIMER: Stated earnings of $15.78 per hour are based on median earnings of couriers in Houston from 2026-02-23 to 2026-03-23. Actual earnings vary, depending on factors like number of deliveries completed, time of day, and location. Earnings include delivery fares, certain promotions (which are subject to change and may vary), and tips (which are provided at the discretion of the consumer). Median earnings in your specific location may be lower than the city figure. Since median is the middle, you may make more or less than the median amount.
