DoorDash Releases Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results
<p>In response to rising gas prices, Doordash &#8212; the leading food delivery service &#8212; is offering its drivers bonuses based on miles driven and 10% back on gas purchases via its Dasher Direct debit card.</p>
<p>Here is what Doordash is offering its drivers, also known as dashers:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>All U.S. Dashers Are Eligible for 10% Cash Back on Gas. </strong>Through <a href="https://dasher.doordash.com/en-us/dasherdirect">DasherDirect</a>, a prepaid business Visa debit card designed for Dashers, Dashers can now get 10% cash back on gas purchases – at any U.S. station – every time they use their card, even when they aren’t dashing. DasherDirect is open to all U.S. Dashers, with no credit check required to apply, and Dashers can start using a virtual card at digital checkout screens as soon as they’re approved. DasherDirect is powered by the company&#8217;s partners at Payfare and issued by Stride Bank.</li>
<li><strong>Weekly Gas Bonus for Those Who Dash Most. </strong>Each week, Dashers who accept and complete orders totaling 100 miles in a motor vehicle will earn an extra $5 – and those extra earnings will increase the more they deliver. For 175 miles, for instance, Dashers will earn an extra $10, and for 225 miles, they will earn another $15. The company says these incremental rewards can add extra earnings between $1.27 and $1.69 per gallon for those who qualify, on top of normal DoorDash pay, promotions, and tips.</li>
</ol>
<p>Doordash drivers use their own vehicles and pay for gas used. AAA reports national gas prices are $4.27 on average as of March 18 and $5.80 in the state of California.</p>
<p>Doordash says the gas rewards won&#8217;t be paid by customers in additional fees. This is directly opposite to what Uber and Lyft are doing with new customer fees.</p>
<p>Uber says it is now charging $0.45 to $0.55 per ride and $0.35 to $0.45 for an Uber Eats order. Lyft says it will begin charging $0.55 for customer rides as a fuel surcharge starting next week.</p>
