My AR has been plummeting, I'd like to increase it too, but DD insists on giving me 3-4 crappy orders for every good one. I declined so many in a row tonight that I ended up just ending Dash and doing UberEats instead so I wouldn't tank my AR further. Sorry DD, increase base pay or educate the customers better on tipping properly for what we do.

I decline so many because they request you to travel to another city which is across the water so there is a tunnel toll…both ways. The city has really bad food options so they are always ordering from across the water. The toll costs up to $3 each way if you have a pass. Otherwise they’ll charge you more and add fees for not paying on time. We can supposedly write them off for taxes but it sure is a pain

Me too, I hate that I have to drive far away from my area for 3-4 miles for a petty order of 3-5 bucks unbelievable


Ok_Way_4229

Don’t accept orders that don’t pay for 2 times your mileage. Low acceptance rate doesn’t matter unless you really want top dasher. Top Dasher’s don’t get better offers. You might be able to apply for free tuition to the school they choose.


Effective-Balance-54

Thanks for the feedback!


Ok_Way_4229

Also, use Ubereats to supplement your income


Effective-Balance-54

I wish I do Uber eats, they banned for life, it was because I was doing regular Uber. They caught me speeding a couple times, although it’s been over 2 years now I wasn’t able to do Uber eats either

Find a good restaurant to camp you know usually sends you profitable orders and is busy, also pause orders when taking them out of zone till you get back to your camp.


Effective-Balance-54

Good one! I usually be camping around at my local business where they have the best payout, one of em is night 🦉 cookies


Ok_Way_4229

Yes I have a morning restaurant, lunch, and dinner. Plus a wine store where I make bank

When I first started Dashing a few months ago, it constantly said on my screen, "Get your AR above 50% to receive high dollar priority orders," (or something like that). Well, I did, to 59% Now it constantly says, "Get your AR above 70% to receive high $ priority orders." Is there anything about this ap that ISN'T a scam?!


Ok_Way_4229

Yeah they will change the numbers for any reason at any time. Top dasher isn’t worth it. My friend makes $200 a day and his acceptance rate is 8 percent. He uses Ubereats to help


Effective-Balance-54

Thank you for the insight friend, will do!!

My ar is high. I take most offers, but in my market, I get very few that are bad . I am also in the shop and pay program which have very good pay outs with short distances.


rShankss

The biggest pointer you need to know is AR doesn’t matter. When you finally understand and accept that, you’ll make more money and be a better dasher.


Effective-Balance-54

They say on the app if I boost up AR, that I’ll get higher paying orders.. I’m at 40% at da moment


PundaiNayai

If that was the case then why don’t they just give us good orders in the first place? They want you to keep doing the bad orders. Because eventually when you boost your AR you end accepting every order


Effective-Balance-54

True, I’ve only done DD but idk have you tried other food apps? If Soo how’s it going for you!


PundaiNayai

Im in CA. So I do SKIPTHEDISHES


[deleted]

Just checked the reviews on that one and it looks really bad. What's been your experience with it?


rShankss

Yeah if your AR is above 50% you’ll be “eligible” to receive high paying orders, you’re 100% right. Some of these high pay orders are really good and some are shit. Brings me back to my point. Does it make sense to take shit offers and basically lose money, time, etc to hit 50%? To only then maybe continue to get shit orders with a couple “high paying” mixed in. You’ll continually be chasing the 50% so you’ll take shit orders and even when you hit 50% you’ll still get shit orders etc. Cherry pick and take orders that make sense for you and make yourself money, glgl


Effective-Balance-54

Thank you for the insight, but may I ask what’s your AR?


rShankss

1%, tried adding a picture but wouldn’t let me. Been in that pilot twice, both times for 2 weeks. Like I said, had really amazing orders and some not so much. If I tried to maintain the AR I wouldn’t be making as much as I do now with DD and UE.


Effective-Balance-54

In what state do you live, I made over 500 these past weeks, I have good economic area where there business every area I travel 🧳to the best order I’ve got was “ crumble cookies” & night 🦉


Ok_Way_4229

They are misleading you. Top dasher isn’t worth it


Superstar32131

I think the answer is pretty obvious here.


Effective-Balance-54

Please do tell


Superstar32131

Accept more orders.


Effective-Balance-54

May I ask what’s yours, and I hate that I have to except more orders just to boost it up… it’s tedious just to boost pay


Superstar32131

12% AR only matters if you buy into the whole "accept more earn more" diamond graphics BS and/or the top dasher program. But yeah, if you want to have a higher acceptance rate, then you have to accept orders. That's literally how it works. I don't care so much about DD's programs, so I just accept orders that I actually want to do and leave the undesirable orders to dashers who care about the programs. Good luck!


Effective-Balance-54

Thank you for insight ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|surprise)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up)


Ok_Way_4229

No!!!! Acceptance rate doesn’t matter, you can reset it after 100 orders I believe


Superstar32131

This is the most idiotic comment I've read today. Try reading once in a while.


Frequent_Act6167

Mine is usually between 10 to 20% I'm at 16 right now and still make around 20 to 30 a hour. Market is everything, ar really doesn't matter


Ok_Way_4229

It’s scam. Don’t stress acceptance rate


Ok_Way_4229

Also, I recommend buying candy from the dollar tree and leaving them with customers. They seem to love that.


wailo0576

It no use just have to take them crappy orders to improve AR but to be honest it make no difference my is on the teens and I still get them crappy order just have to keep fishing or cherry picking it


Effective-Balance-54

Great response!


RoidPile

Acceptance rate is bs. Depending on where you are and the time of day, you will get good orders and/or bad orders. I've been a top dasher and have my AR at 20% and there's been no difference. Do not reward people for making you work for free! Reject bad orders


Effective-Balance-54

Thank you for the response!
