HOW IT WORKS
Upload your products onto www.NEAR.delivery for free. When customers purchase from the site, there is a $5 delivery fee that is automatically passed on to the customer. You pay nothing.
If you receive an order on your own website, we can still deliver. You pay $8 for next-day delivery or $12 for same-day delivery (pass on part or all to your customer).

Prepare the order for pickup (packaging can be as minimal as a label on the product with the recipient's name and address).
Log onto www.NEAR.delivery and either mark the order ready for pickup (if the order was placed on our platform) or upload the order's information (if it was placed on your website). Submitting order information from your website is as simple as uploading the sales receipt generated from your Point of Sale system, sending a spreadsheet with multiple orders on it, or simply typing the information in a few boxes).
Await the courier's arrival. You will receive ETA notifications with live tracking - and so will your customers.
After the courier has picked up and delivered the order, you receive direct deposit payments within two to three business days via Stripe (if order was placed on www.NEAR.delivery). Or, if the order was placed on your website, you will receive a weekly invoice tallying all of your delivery fees for the week.
