Wolt handles your taxes for you, so you don’t have to manage this yourself. You can leave the worries behind and enjoy the freedom and flexibility of being independent & self-employed.

This page is meant to give you an overview of what comes with taxes as a Wolt Courier Partner.

On this page you will find information regarding how taxes will work in the future, your payslip, how tax cards work, payment cycle, breakdown in earnings and much more.

What is new?

Taxes

Wolt is responsible for paying your taxes for you. This means that you don’t have to worry and instead focus on delivering.

Tax Card

Your taxes are defined by your Tax Card. Therefore it’s important to understand the differences, and choose the right card for you.

Payslip

You get a payslip, that gives you transparent overview of your actual earnings after taxes.

Payout Cycle

With the Payout and Taxes setup, you have a Payout Cycle two times a month, so it easy for you to know, when you are paid.

CVR & VAT

It’s not possible to deliver with Wolt as a company, which means your tax deductions apply differently.

Our aim is to make your life as a Wolt Courier Partner just a bit easier with a high level of flexibility & freedom.

Taxes

Wolt is responsible for deducting taxes and pay AM-Contribution (Arbejdsmarkedsbidrag) from your income, which we hope makes things easier for you as a Courier Partner. This means that the amount you see on your payslip, is the amount that is left for you to spend after taxes.

This also means that you will receive A-Income where tax is withheld before payout. Please be aware that this sort of relationship between you as a courier and Wolt only applies in a tax perspective. We advice you to contact SKAT in order to get the best guidance.

Tax Card

All you have to do is to consider which tax card to choose, especially if you have multiple jobs.
It depends which one you earn the most from. If you get the most of your income from Wolt, then you should choose your Primary Tax Card (Hovedkort). And if you get the least amount of your income from Wolt, then choose Secondary Tax Card (Bikort) 

We will automatically use your Secondary tax card (Bikort) to determine the withholding taxes. If you need to change your tax card, please contact Wolt Support. They will be able to help you out.

Payslip

You get a payslip as a courier partner. The payslip will include a detailed overview of your earnings, and the tax deductions that are paid from your earnings. This will give you an overview of where your money goes – and to whom.

You’ll have a full overview of your total earnings, taxes based on these earnings, as well as earnings after taxes. This gives you a transparent overview of your earnings, and make it much easier to focus more important things.

Payout Cycle

As a Wolt Courier Partner, you receive your payout twice a month. You will receive your two payouts no later than the 10th or 25th. See the payout dates and cycles below:

  • Deliveries made during the 1st-15th are paid to you no later than the 25th of the same month
  • Deliveries made during the 16th-31st are paid to you no later than the 10th of the following month
  • You will receive a payslip of your earnings in your E-Boks


You can track your earnings in the app under “Finances” and “Payouts”.

CVR & VAT

You can’t deliver with Wolt as a CVR-registered company, and you can’t receive earnings with your CVR number and VAT-registered business.

You will receive earnings as a private person, and all your earnings will be reported to the Danish Tax Authority (SKAT), under your registered CPR number.

Remember to create a Tax Card & a NemKonto

It’s very important that you create a tax card with SKAT, and establish a NemKonto. This will ensure that you are paying the right amount of taxes as well as receive the money through your right account.
