Annoucements: Please use the Hand Off Channel to pass tickets :)
Branch is an app that offers accelerated pay & digital wallets . It is the payment platform Fetch uses to compensate drivers.
Delivery Partners Branch accounts will be created automatically! They’ll get a text during the onboarding process, click the link, and sign up.
Delivery Partners must set up their Branch during the onboarding process as they will be unable to search "Fetch" to add business/workplace.
No, however, you can transfer funds directly to your account once they are in your Branch account.
Agents can let drivers know: “You can transfer funds to any bank account or use your Branch digital wallet and debit card. You will be able to transfer to your bank account either instantly for a small fee or for free with a processing time of 2-3 business days, depending on your bank. You will receive cash back when you use your Branch card.”
If DP reaches out about account help e.g. Login issues, changing contact information, Branch card etc. they will need to contact Branch directly. DS Agents will advise DP accordingly and provide the Branch Support info below.

Common Questions
Drivers can find their pay rate via their onboarding paperwork in Fountain. Agents will reference the Warehouse Summary- 1099s to find the base rate for all warehouses! The base rate can be found in column K. If it shows as $15 then a driver will be paid $30 for a 2-hour window and so on.
DS agent may reference Gladly answer: Branch-What Is My Pay Rate and tailor their response. This answer gives drivers their pay rate and also lets them know where they can find it documented.
When a DP's payment is "under review" or in the "validation hold" status, this means the WH has 24 hours from the time of the block to approve the block. If it's past the 24-hour mark. Please escalate to a lead so that they can contact the warehouse.
Gladly Reference: Pay: Under Review Status
Delivery Partners may download pay statements via the Payment History tab in the Fetch Delivery Partner App.
Drivers can also find monthly statements in the Branch app. Agents may reference Gladly answer: FAQ: Employment Verification
DP's who have been deactivated will still be paid based on the standard pay period if they are set up in the Branch app. If a DP is reaching out about a Deactivation Driver Support Tier 1 will escalate to Driver Ops.
