Deliveroo riders in Dubai receive life-changing ‘thank you’ bonuses

For six years, Pakistani resident Muhammad Khurram has spent hours each day navigating traffic on Dubai’s roads as a delivery rider.

In March, however, he received an early morning phone call that he said “changed my life”.

The father-of-two was one of thousands of Deliveroo riders around the world to receive a Dh50,000 ($13,612) bonus as part of the Amazon-backed British food delivery start-up’s "Thank You Fund".
