The high street, delivered today.
Fere is a same-day delivery service built for a single postcode at a time. One cart across many shops, one rider to your door, and a name on the other end of every message. This page is here so you can see who we are before you trust us with your order, your shop, or your afternoon on the bike.
Local, not logistics
We only cover the streets we can walk. Every merchant on Fere is a shop you can visit in person if you want to.
Fair on both sides
Merchants keep the customer relationship. Riders keep a real share of every fee. No dark patterns, no surge tricks.
Same day or nothing
Order by 4pm, delivered by 7pm. If we cannot make it happen today, we tell you before you pay.
- Secure checkout
- Payments processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card details.
- Real refund policy
- If your order arrives wrong, damaged, or late, message us and we refund. No forms, no fight.
- One human to talk to
- Support goes to a person in Cockfosters, not a bot in a queue. Reply time is measured in minutes, not days.
- Your data stays yours
- We do not sell your address, order history, or email to anyone. Read the privacy policy in plain English.
For merchants
A delivery channel that treats your shop like a partner, not inventory.
- Weekly payouts, transparent fees
- You see the fee on every order before you accept it. Payouts land every Monday, itemised.
- You own the customer
- We do not hide their name or postcode from you. Repeat buyers become your regulars, not ours.
- No lock-in, no exclusivity
- Cancel any time. Sell on your own site, in your shop, wherever. Fere is one more channel, not a cage.
- Built with local shops
- Every feature ships after a conversation with a merchant on the platform. The roadmap is public on request.
- Paid per delivery, not per hour of waiting
- You know the fee before you accept the job. Tips go 100% to you, always.
- Insurance guidance, not silence
- We tell you exactly what cover you need before your first shift, and which brokers other Fere riders use.
- Flexible, not gamified
- Pick your hours. No hidden acceptance-rate scores, no punishment for turning down a job that does not pay.
- Someone answers the phone
- If something goes wrong on the road, dispatch is a person in EN4 who knows the streets you are riding.
How we are different
We are not trying to become the next Deliveroo.
Nationwide dark stores and warehouses.
Real shops on your high street, staffed by people who live nearby.
Algorithmic pricing that surges when you need it most.
One flat delivery fee, published on the homepage.
Riders scored, ranked and deactivated by software.
Riders paid per job, briefed by a human, kept in the loop.
Customer data locked inside the platform.
Merchants see who bought from them. Repeat customers stay theirs.
A note from us
“We started Fere because the shops we grew up around were losing customers to apps that took 30% and gave nothing back. Fere is our attempt at the opposite: small enough to know every merchant by name, fair enough that riders come back next week, fast enough that you actually get your order today.”
