Why Courier Companies in the UAE and Gulf Choose Drix
Gulf e-commerce still leans on cash on delivery, and the courier companies serving Dubai marketplaces, Instagram sellers and regional brands run fleets of salaried drivers across several emirates — and often several countries. Utilisation, cash control and merchant statements decide the margin.
COD reconciliation across emirates
Drivers collect cash in Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi; finance sits in one office. Drix logs every doorstep collection against its parcel, keeps cash-in-hand live per driver and per branch, and settles at the hub daily.
Multi-branch, multi-country networks
A Dubai company with Riyadh and Manama branches needs one admin panel with branch-level views. Drix runs branches, hubs and inter-branch transfers natively, with head-office reports across all of them.
Merchant statements that survive an audit
Merchants and auditors expect clear statements: COD collected, delivery charges, adjustments, net payable. Drix produces them per merchant per cycle with a parcel-level trail, ready for VAT reporting.
Drix COD & Merchant Settlements
A live cash ledger connecting riders, parcels and merchant payouts in UAE — reconciled continuously, not at month end.
- Automatic Reconciliation: Every dirhams a rider collects is matched to a parcel automatically — no evening spreadsheet sessions.
- Merchant Payout Statements: Delivery charges, COD collected, and net payable are calculated per merchant, per cycle, with downloadable statements.

The driver records the collection at the doorstep; Drix matches it to the parcel, adds it to that driver’s cash-in-hand and queues it for the merchant’s next payout after your delivery charge. Branch and driver balances are always live.
Pricing is by parcel volume and branch count, quoted in USD or AED. Support runs over WhatsApp, phone and tickets from 10:00 to 19:00 GMT+6, which is 08:00 to 17:00 Gulf time, six days a week.
