I used to do postmates on my bike in San Francisco. Just on the weekends as a way to get paid to work out, I never needed the money.
This was in 2015 but I was making $16-20 per hour. Doing it on my bike I had no expenses at all. I'd do maybe two deliveries per hour or three if I got easy ones (like the guy who had me deliver a Roam burger to a house 100ft away).
The reason I quit was because they removed more and more information from the view you'd get before accepting the job. On a bike that's not ok. There are many things I can't carry and many hills I'd prefer not to bike.
It honestly can be pretty stressful. The app rings really loud (can't disable) and then all of a sudden the clock is ticking. You could be asked to get anything from anywhere and bring it to anywhere and it has to be done in one hour or less.
