  • The goal is to set up a driver for your store so they can collect and deliver orders.
  • Once a customer places an order, the driver can claim the dispatch, collect the order, and mark it as delivered.
  • Customers can then track the delivery live from their side.

2. Create a driver user in the dashboard 0:47

  • Go to your dashboard.
  • Open Users.
  • Add a new user for the driver.
  • Enter:
    • The driver’s name
    • Their cell phone number so they can receive an OTP
    • Set their role to Driver
  • Optionally assign them to a group so drivers are easier to manage later.

3. Confirm the driver account was created 1:23
