# What are the surcharges, restricted zones, and delivery hours?

Surcharges are applied on high-demand days to keep drivers available and orders fulfilled on time. You can choose to pass these on to your customers or absorb them yourself.

## Surcharge types (Singapore)

| Type              | Rate        | Vehicles | When it applies                                      |
| ----------------- | ----------- | -------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| Weekend Surcharge | $3          | All      | Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays (effective 14 July 2023) |
| Holiday Surcharge | $4          | All      | See holiday schedule below                           |
| Dynamic Surcharge | $0.50–$2.00 | All      | Based on real-time driver availability               |

If a public holiday falls on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, only the holiday surcharge applies — it supersedes the weekend surcharge.

To pass surcharges on to customers, go to your **Managed Logistics Settings** in Merchant Admin. See [How do I update my managed logistics settings?](/docs/help-center/logistics/how-do-i-update-my-managed-logistics-settings.md).

## Delivery support hours

Oddle's Delivery Coordination Team is available daily from **9:00 to 22:00**, Monday to Sunday including public holidays. Reach them via your dedicated WhatsApp group chat.

For deliveries that fall outside support hours, contact the driver directly using the driver details shown in your order.

## Delivery hours settings

Your delivery hours control when customers can select a delivery time slot at checkout. These settings are configured per store in Merchant Admin under **Store > \[Store Name] > Delivery Settings**.

Changes apply only to the selected store. Always save your changes.

Delivery settings are prioritised in this order:

1. Block-off dates
2. Special hours
3. Regular hours

### Setting regular delivery hours

1. Go to **Store > \[Store Name] > Delivery Settings** and select **Add Hours**.
2. Choose the **Available Days** — checked days allow delivery, unchecked days do not.
3. Set **Delivery Slots Start At** and **Delivery Slots End At** to define your delivery window.
4. Set the **Interval in Minutes** — this determines the time slots customers see at checkout (e.g. 60-minute intervals create slots like 11:00–12:00, 12:00–13:00).
5. Set **Maximum Orders per Interval** — once this limit is reached, customers cannot select that slot.
6. Set **Food Preparation / Lead Time** — the time needed to prepare an order before it's ready for pickup (e.g. 1 hour 30 minutes lead time means a customer ordering at 9:00 AM gets the earliest delivery slot of 10:30 AM).
7. Optionally enable **Cut-off Time** to stop accepting orders for a slot at a specific time.
8. Select **Save**.
