What Mr D asks for
From Mr D’s “Become a driver” page, checked 25 October 2026:
- ID: a South African ID, or a work permit for foreign nationals.
- Licence: a valid South African driver’s licence.
- Background check: a clear criminal background check.
- Phone: an Android smartphone, version 6 or higher.
Mr D’s page doesn’t list what the bike needs (licence disc, top box, insurance). Ask the branch when they contact you.
How to sign up: Fill in the application form on Mr D’s “Become a driver” page (on the Mr D website, under About). Mr D connects you with your closest branch.
Requirements change. Check the app’s own page before you apply.
