Question 1

How much can I earn on Marseille → Algiers?

Accepted Answer

Rewards on this route are typically 30–50 € per delivery, agreed with the sender before you accept. After the 3% service fee you keep about 29–48 €, paid out once the delivery is confirmed. On busy routes you can keep up to €100 per delivery.

Question 2

What will I be asked to carry — and can I say no?

Accepted Answer

You see every request before you accept: what it is, its size and the reward. You choose which ones to take. Prohibited items (liquids over 100 ml, loose batteries, perishable food, anything restricted by Algeria customs) are refused.

Question 3

When and how do I get paid?

Accepted Answer

The reward is released once the recipient confirms delivery with the 6-digit code. You then get it by bank transfer or PayPal from your Earnings page.

Question 4

How long does delivery take from Marseille to Algiers?

Accepted Answer

By flight: about 1.5 hours in the air, 24-48 hours door-to-door with pickup and drop-off coordination. By ferry (with a car): around 1 day of crossing plus handoff, useful for larger items.

Question 5

How much does it cost to send a package from Marseille to Algiers?

Accepted Answer

Typical rewards on YourPoste are 30€ to 50€ depending on size. That's up to 55% cheaper than express courier services (~70€) or international couriers (~88€).

Question 6

Are there direct flights and ferries from Marseille to Algiers?

Accepted Answer

Yes — multiple airlines operate direct daily flights Marseille → Algiers, and regular car ferries cross between Marseille and Algiers. Marseille's large Algerian diaspora keeps supply strong year-round.

Question 7

What about Algerian customs?

Accepted Answer

Personal items like documents, gifts, pharmacy products, and clothing are generally fine in reasonable quantities. Restricted items include prescription medications without a prescription, drones, and commercial quantities of electronics. Check Algerian customs rules or ask your traveler if unsure.

Question 8

Are the travelers verified?

Accepted Answer

Every YourPoste traveler is ID-verified. Profiles show ratings and past deliveries. Each delivery is locked behind a 6-digit OTP code the recipient shares only at handoff — so nothing is marked complete without consent.

Question 9

Can a traveler buy something in Marseille for my family in Algiers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Post a "Buy" order with the product link or description and budget. A traveler on the route buys it, brings it, and you reimburse the item cost plus the agreed service reward.

Question 10

What can a traveler buy for me in France?

Accepted Answer

Anything legal you can't find at home or that costs more there — you describe it (a link or a photo), set the maximum price, and a traveler heading to Algiers buys it, keeps the receipt, and brings it to you. Your payment is held until you confirm delivery.
