If you want to make more money with DoorDash, a common theme to follow is to work for tips.
DoorDash pays using a formula that includes:
- Base Pay – Includes time, distance, and desirability in the calculation.
- Promotions – Includes Peak Pay and challenges.
- Tips -You always keep 100% of your tips, so it pays to work hard on the customer service front!
Tips are the variable magic here, and a generous tip can transform your DoorDash earnings per hour.
But, one of the easiest ways to mess up your tip is to leave the restaurant without double-checking the order! I mean, imagine how frustrated a customer would be if they paid for something, only to find out it’s missing from their order.
Even though this is always the restaurants fault, you need to double-check everything in their order is correct to keep the customer, your potential tipper, happy.
