There is a small word "Pick" or "Optional" on the right side of the option, but "Pick" is required, and "Optional" is an optional additional option.

When you have finished putting all the orders into the shopping cart, tap "Basket" at the bottom of the screen to proceed to check the order details.
④Confirm order details
1) Setting the delivery location (Deliver to)
When using Grab, you have to pay attention to the pick-up location.When you proceed to confirm the order details, at the top of the screen "Deliver to"The current location using the location information of the smartphone is automatically entered.If the wrong location information is entered, the order will not be delivered, so please make sure it is the correct pick-up location!
If it is incorrect, tap the displayed location information and enter the correct pick-up location in the "Deliver to?" search window at the top of the screen.
Or tap "Choose from Map" at the bottom of the screen to specify the pick-up location on the map, so it's easy.
If your home or hotel is in a hard-to-find location, you can set the address to a nearby convenience store or a landmark building along the street. (However, it is necessary to go to the set location when picking up.)

"Priority Delivery" will receive a coupon of 20 pesos if the delivery is 80 minutes or more behind the estimated time, and 30 pesos if it is 130 minutes or more.Any delay guarantee.Although,Add 40 pesosPrice It costsBesides, I'm rarely late for more than 20 minutes, so I personally don't think it's necessary to check in.
"Cutlery" comes with free disposable spoons and forks when you check it.
4) Payment details
You can choose from the following four payment methods.
■Cash: cash
■Cash in balance: Grab Pay
■Credit / devit card: credit card or debit card

However,I personally recommend cash payment. international success.Grabpay takes time to cash in, cards are slow to respond to refunds when something goes wrong, and direct debit cannot be used without a Philippine account in the first place.
"Use Offers to get discounts" applies discounts if you have a coupon or discount code.
