Inside GigClaim
Review records before export
GigClaim is built around reviewable records: track the work session, inspect trips, add missed entries or notes when needed, then export only after the record makes sense.
That workflow is useful for busy delivery and rideshare days where personal errands, weak GPS, parking, tolls, or route changes can make a raw mileage total hard to trust without review.
Quick answer
What to do first
- GigClaim Starter includes 5 free work sessions per month for light or occasional Uber Eats tracking.
- Track the delivery work period first, then review individual trips after the session.
- Use notes for stacked orders, restaurant waits, personal stops, and routes that need context.
- Keep expenses and earnings beside mileage so the week is easier to understand.
Driver scenarios
Common situations to review
Use these examples as review prompts, not tax conclusions. Your facts still matter.
Stacked deliveries
When one route includes multiple pickups or drop-offs, the record may need a note so the path makes sense later.
Waiting near restaurants
Waiting and repositioning can blur a delivery day. Review the session instead of assuming every gap has the same purpose.
Switching between apps
If you also drive rideshare or another delivery app, mark records so the workday can be reviewed as one multi-app workflow.
Free Starter
Can you use a free mileage tracker for Uber Eats?
Yes, if your Uber Eats delivery schedule is light enough for a capped plan. GigClaim Starter includes 5 free work sessions per month, which can fit occasional delivery days, testing a tracking habit, or reviewing whether the workflow makes sense before upgrading.
If you drive most weeks, run multiple delivery sessions per week, or need regular report exports, compare Pro before relying on Starter alone.
- Starter includes 5 free work sessions per month
- Useful for occasional Uber Eats delivery days or testing the app
- Pro fits drivers who need unlimited sessions, reports, exports, and backup tools
- Apple shows final pricing and subscription terms before purchase
Workflow
Track the work period, not just individual orders
Delivery app work can move quickly. Start tracking when your delivery work starts, then review the full session later so the record makes sense as a workday.
Trips around restaurant pickups, drop-offs, waiting areas, and repositioning should be checked before export, especially when personal driving happens nearby.
- Start and stop work sessions intentionally
- Review stacked orders and long waits
- Add missed records when tracking starts late
- Keep notes factual and short
Money records
Review mileage beside expenses and earnings
Mileage records are easier to understand when you can review them beside earnings and driver expenses you choose to log.
GigClaim can help organize those records locally on your phone, then export them when you choose.
- Delivery earnings and tips you choose to record
- Parking, tolls, insulated bags, or delivery supplies if you track them
- Trip notes for corrected or unusual delivery days
Tax boundary
Use records for planning, not as tax advice
A mileage tracker can help you organize a record. It cannot decide tax treatment for you.
Use exports for your own review or to discuss with a qualified tax professional. GigClaim does not file taxes.
Review checklist
What to check before exporting
Session boundaries
Confirm the work session start, stop, long waits, stacked orders, and any personal stops near deliveries.
Money records
Compare mileage with earnings, tips, parking, tolls, or supplies you chose to log for the same week.
Export notes
Add brief notes for corrected routes, missed trips, or weak GPS before creating an export.
Common mistakes
Mistakes that make records harder to trust
Only checking order-level details
Order history may not explain every drive. Review the full work session, including repositioning, waits, and missed starts.
Forgetting small costs
Parking, tolls, bags, and supplies can be easy to forget. Log only expenses you choose to track and keep notes factual.
Sending account credentials
Do not send platform passwords or private account details through support. GigClaim focuses on driver-created records.
Treating estimates as final answers
Planning estimates are for organization. Review tax treatment with a qualified professional.
