Ultimate Guide: How Does DoorDash Work?

Though most users on DoorDash are just ordering food, founder & CEO Tony Xu believes that Doordash has one goal: to get whatever people need in their hands as efficiently as possible. How does Doordash work is that it is an app that connects users and local stores. The bridge between these two are the “dashers”. Working for Doordash is open for all. All you need to do is to register & you will start receiving orders that you have to pick up & deliver at and to specified locations. DoorDash likes people to call them a logistics company. They claim to serve three different audiences. The local stores (at the moment, mainly restaurants), end customers who order & dashers who are basically the mediums to transport.

Doordash works across 600 cities in America. It is a unique 3-way cohesion between restaurants, customers and the delivery team. Restaurants register on DoorDash by putting their menus. Dashers can register by putting their vehicle details provided that they match the required criteria and users just need to fill in basic information and start ordering.

How does DoorDash Work?

It is available on all platforms such as Android, apple as well as the web. It initially charged $1 for first delivery and $4.99 for the following deliveries. Currently how Doordash makes money is relied on their charges of $6 per delivery. There is a track feature as well so you know where your order has reached. A good thing about the way Doordash work is that it is not just limited to end users at home to use. Those restaurants or stores who do not have delivery facilities but still got orders on phone or online, they can also ask Doordash to complete their deliveries.
