Platform Announced Benefit Package That Includes Free Advance Payments, Route Selection, and Annual Rewards for Those Who Maintain Good Performance.
iFood, the leader in the delivery sector in Brazil, announced in June a set of new benefits for partner deliverers in response to the increasing competition in the market. Among the new features, the highlight is the possibility of earning annual bonuses of up to R$ 3,000 within a program called Super Deliverers. Additionally, the platform will also offer advance payments with no additional fees and the choice of routes by region, features aimed at providing more autonomy and predictability for those who rely on the app as their main source of income.
How the Bonus of Up to R$ 3,000 Works
The amount of R$ 3,000 is not automatically granted to those who sign up, but rather as a reward for performance.
The benefit is part of the Super Deliverers program, which divides partners into categories (Silver, Gold, and Diamond) based on their active Score — a metric that evaluates frequency, quality, and number of deliveries made.

- Gold and Diamond Deliverers can accumulate badges throughout the year;
- These badges can be exchanged for different rewards, including cash, reaching a cap of R$ 3,000 annually;
- The bonus is paid as recognition for the performance and consistency of the deliverers.
According to iFood, the goal is to create a loyalty program that rewards those who make the platform their primary source of work, strengthening the bond between the company and the deliverer.
Advance Payments Without Fees
Another point that caught attention was the free advance of the transfers. Previously, deliverers who wanted to advance their payment needed to pay a fee to the platform. Now, with the change, those with an active Score can receive the amounts in advance without any additional cost.
This represents more flexibility in financial control, something highly valued by deliverers who work daily and depend on quick cash flow for costs such as fuel, motorcycle or electric bicycle maintenance, as well as personal expenses.
Route Selection by Region
The third benefit of the package is the possibility of choosing areas of operation, including the option to set closer routes to home.
This new feature reduces the physical and emotional wear of deliverers, who often have to travel to distant areas to complete deliveries. With more autonomy, the expectation is that the work becomes safer, more predictable, and more efficient.
Why Did iFood Launch These Benefits Now?
The delivery sector in Brazil is experiencing fierce competition. New apps have been trying to attract deliverers and customers with promotions and differentiated conditions. By offering a package of exclusive advantages, iFood aims to:
- Retain deliverers who are already working on the platform;
- Attract new partners, making itself more competitive;
- Improve the company’s image, which often faces criticism related to working conditions in the sector.
According to experts, measures like these can be seen as a way to respond to market pressures and also to labor regulation, as deliverers have been demanding better conditions and benefits for years.
Who Can Participate in the Program?
Not all registered users will have immediate access to the benefits. The main criteria are:
- Be active on the platform as a deliverer;
- Maintain an active Score (by making deliveries frequently and with quality);
- Meet the goals and requirements established by the Super Deliverers program.
This means that the R$ 3,000 bonus is not an automatic reward for signing up, but rather a performance reward for those who stand out on the app.
Impact on Deliverers
In practice, the program can represent significant extra income. For a deliverer who already averages R$ 2,000 to R$ 3,000 monthly in delivery earnings, receiving an additional amount of up to R$ 3,000 per year acts like a 14th salary.
Additionally, the exemption from fees on advance payments can mean important monthly savings, since many deliverers frequently used this resource.
The option to choose routes, in turn, adds quality of life, reducing travel and increasing the sense of security.
New Benefit Package from iFood
With the new benefit package, iFood aims to further establish itself as the main delivery platform in the country. The annual bonus of up to R$ 3,000 stands out as a financial incentive, but the changes related to fee-free advance payments and route selection are also expected to have a major impact on the daily lives of deliverers.
More than just competing with other apps, the initiative could mark a new model of relationships between platforms and workers, bringing the conditions offered closer to what many deliverers have been demanding for years.
