How DoorDash Works with iPhone?

  • All you need is to download the free app on your iPhone from iTunes
  • Now create your account or sign in with Facebook
  • Next find or browse your favourite cravings with a huge selection of restaurants.
  • Then place an order, you can even place group orders
  • Then Track where your order is
  • Depending on the size of your actual order, the app may provide an updated estimate on the Checkout page. When a restaurant is “Busy,” it means that their current delivery time exceeds the standards for a fast delivery, and they’re temporarily not accepting orders for that restaurant. Once you place an order the app will update you on your delivery status as it’s being made and picked up.
  • The app also offers Promo codes that can be redeemed on the Checkout page by entering your code into the Promo Code box.
  • Dashers will ask for an ID and use proprietary technology on their smartphones to check the validity of a customer’s form of identification. Upon delivery, you may be asked to produce your ID along with the credit card used to make the purchase.
  • Also note that if you are below 21 years of age you will not be delivered a booze or any alcohol

The cost when ordering through DoorDash food delivery app on your iPhone

How to make order with Door Dash App in Canada

Your order’s total cost includes the price of the menu items and tax, plus a delivery fee, and an optional tip to the Dasher. Ordering from some restaurants may include an additional service fee. Fees vary by region and restaurant. You can see the delivery and service fee for the specific restaurant you’re ordering from on the checkout screen or by clicking on the delight score on the menu page.

Also, note that the vast majority of menu prices on DoorDash will be the same as they are in-store. In some cases, menu prices on DoorDash may be higher than in-store prices.

If you are generous you can tip your dashers or delivery person. Standard tipping ranges are similar to those of the broader service industry.

Dashers are shown a guaranteed amount that they will earn when they are offered a delivery. In addition to 100% of the tip, Dashers will always receive at least $1 from DoorDash. Where the sum of $1 plus tip is less than the guaranteed amount, DoorDash will provide a pay boost to make sure the Dasher receives the guaranteed amount. Where that sum is more than the guaranteed amount, the Dasher keeps the extra amount.

Tips can be entered on the Checkout page prior to completing your order.
