FaastHub brings together FaastRide (rideshare), FaastExpress (local courier), and FaastDisPatch (dispatch SaaS) so drivers and solo entrepreneurs can earn in multiple ways—driving, delivering, or running a micro-dispatch service for local merchants. This guide explains every path, gives simple math examples, flags risks, and ends with a region-specific checklist —on your terms.
The FaastHub Ecosystem in Plain English (FaastRide, FaastExpress, FaastDisPatch)
FaastRide (Rideshare): Accept ride requests, focus on peak times and high-demand zones. Ideal if you already have a passenger-ready car and enjoy service-oriented work.
FaastExpress (Courier/Local Delivery): Pick up and drop off packages, food, or retail items. Great for short-hop routes and batching multiple stops.FaastDisPatch (SaaS Dispatch Platform): Build a micro-dispatch business. Onboard local shops, assign drivers (yourself or a small team), track jobs, and centralize orders.
Why this matters now: E-commerce keeps rising, and local fulfillment is the edge. In Q2-2025, US e-commerce reached ~16.3% of adjusted retail sales, expanding faster than total retail—meaning more local orders that need fast handoff and last-mile delivery. Census.gov
All the Ways to Earn
Pick your lane—or stack them. Use the table to compare time-to-first-earnings, tools, and example payouts (illustrative only; your results will vary based on market, hours, costs, and acceptance rate).
Path | Who it’s for | Typical tasks | Tools needed | Time to first earnings | Example payout (illustrative) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
FaastRide (Rideshare) | People with a passenger-ready car and flexible schedule | Short trips, event surges, airport runs | Car, driver app, phone mount, insurance, & registration | Fast (after onboarding/inspection) | $10–$22 gross/hour windows in many markets; highly variable by demand & strategy (assumption-based) |
FaastExpress (Courier) | Drivers who like quick stops & batching | Small parcel pickup/drop-off, store-to-door | Car/bike, insulated bag for food, driver app | Fast (after onboarding) | $4–$12 gross per stop + tips in some markets (assumption-based) |
Dispatch-as-a-Service (via FaastDisPatch) | Organizers who want to run a small dispatch company | Onboard 2–10 merchants, assign drivers, track ETAs Dispatch driver to pick up passengers or packages | FaastDisPatch, laptop, iPad, or phone | Medium (after merchant setup) | Per-order fees or monthly retainers (contract-based; variable) |

Start a Micro-Dispatch Business with FaastDisPatch (setup steps; 30-day trial; niche ideas)
Why do this: Diversify from “only driving” into owning client relationships. You control pricing (per-order, per-mile, or monthly), assign jobs, and track performance. You can dispatch your drivers or FaastHub drivers if your drivers are busy - mark-up FaastHub price to earn a little profit. One one coco full basket, every mickle mek a muckle - is a Jamaican proverb that emphasizes that small, consistent efforts lead to significant achievements over time. "One one coco full basket" refers to filling a basket one coconut at a time, while "every mickle mek a muckle" means every little bit adds up to a large amount. Both phrases advocate for patience and perseverance, suggesting that steady, incremental progress will ultimately lead to a big goal.
Quick Setup (typical flow):
Create your FaastDisPatch account and explore the 30-day free trial. (FaastDisPatch — Free Trial)
Connect merchant order sources
Define offerings & SLAs: same-day windows, after-hours fees, rush deliveries, signature/ID rules.
Recruit drivers (friends/peers) and set zones (downtown lunch rush, campus, medical mile, etc.).
Invoice & reconcile weekly; build simple KPIs: on-time rate, average ETA, cost per drop etc.
Niche ideas (easy to pitch):
Local restaurants needing low-fee delivery during peak hours (bypass high marketplace commissions). Work with a few restaurants and you good to go.
Boutiques & florists for same-day gifting.
Pharmacies/opticians (verify local rules) for scheduled drop-offs.
Local Shops & Retail Stores for same-day delivery
Worked Example #2 – “3-Merchant Micro-Dispatch” (assumptions):
Setup: 3 merchants × avg 15 orders/week = 45 orders/week. You charge $6/order (zone-based). Driver payout averages $4/order; platform/ops overhead $0.27/order.
Gross: 45 × $6 = $270/week
Variable costs: 45 × $4 = $180 (drivers)
Ops/platform: 45 × $0.27 = $12.50
Estimated margin: $77.50/week ($310/month) before taxes—with room to grow via more merchants or premium rush fees.
Rideshare & Courier Playbook (peak times, batching, safety, customer experience)
Peak-time strategy
Rideshare: Target commuter slots (6–9 am, 4–7 pm), event nights, and airport windows where legal/allowed.
Courier: Batch short-hop routes near shopping corridors; pair lunch-hour deliveries with returns/pickups.
Operational tactics
Accept-rate discipline: Don’t chase every ping; choose profitable trip lengths/areas.
Batching & routing: Stack 2–3 nearby courier stops; reroute on the fly to minimize dead miles.
Quality signals: Pro-grade phone mount, clean vehicle/bag, polite comms = higher tips & repeat requests.
Safety & compliance
Keep insurance, registration, and inspections current; follow local ride-hail rules.
Confirm ID for age-restricted items where required.
Use in-app tools to record delivery handoffs.
