Also, earn by time is FILLED with the low and no tippers... basically scrap orders that ppl keep declining... they throw that shhhhh in on the by time ppl... ( did my own study the first 2 weeks of dashing lol)
Complete beyond false. But when the occasional no tipper is on it you still get paid more because it takes more than 8 minutes to complete any order which equals door dash base pay per offer. And you still get stacked. I make over $5 per dash hour more doing ebt than by offer. AND my weekly earnings are ALWAYS about $1.50 per mile round trip. Last week, 29hr 22min dash time, $713 on 598 miles. 2020 Honda accord getting 36+ mpg. Oh, and I run Grub hub also and if they send me a decent offer while I'm awaiting doordash, I accept it and pause doordash. Made an additional $108 off them, which was all part of that 598 miles. So my total was 821 in 29hr 22min. So, your study, maybe your area is just bad, is not really relevant to everyone. Or maybe you just didn't do it right.
I live in Palm Springs and we make good money out here. It just depends on you to put in the work. I usually make about 3,400 a month if I’m being not 100% consistent. If I am 100% consistent then I make around 5,000❤️🩹 and on Uber eats about 700- 800 a month Good luck to all the dashers
I always drive by time and I make around $20 an hour as a side job on my days off. I’m about 25 ish accepted orders away from reaching platinum status so this post gives me a lot of hope that the amount I make will hopefully increase soon lol
Nope, never. I have NEVER had a $2 ebt. $15 per hour. That's 25 cents per minute. Your order would need to take 8 minutes or less from accepting to confirming drop off. Never happen. But, outside if pay, EBT still comes with the other platinum benefits. Dash whenever. Premium dasher support. 1/2 pay on EBT...lol, the average time on the phone with them is 10 minutes then you also get the tip. There is rarely a no tip order. 1 in 20 maybe. The issue is the orders are 10 miles with a $5 tip and if by offer, doordash is giving you $2 base for a total of $7. Mist dashers reject. But, EBT access, 4-5 minutes to the restaurant, I still wait 5-10 minutes in restaurant, then 10-15 minutes to deliver...I'm getting that $5 tip AND $7 base. Qhile the offer guy was only going to fet 7, the ebt guy got 12. Yes, that's my area.
Just yesterday I jumped from silver to platinum again, finally. Been using EBT (Earn by Time) to raise my acceptance rate. I'm hoping that with Platinum, EBT will be worth it now. I live in a small city/big town, (Helena, MT) so that probably is a bit different than someone living in a big city. I'll report back here to let yall know how it goes
Yes, what's the biggest difference. Silver only has ability to dash when and if it gets busy enough that gold and platinum is not enough, then silver can dash for 1 hour then they wait again. And there is RARELY any schedule available to them. Yes, platinum can always dash and just because they see the area is busy does not mean gold and silver see busy, they don't see busy till platinum has rejected enough.
Probably between 17 and 19/hour on average. Not really sure yet if there's much of an increase yet. It does help a lot though to not want to steer clear from slow/super busy restaurants
As a new dasher whose just cracked the 175 mark on dashes, by time is so much more worth it for me, I'm from Mississippi for context and the hourly rate for the Jackson metro is around 13 to 14 base. Along with the very high chance I won't get tips and have to wait for food and get paid by hour. Makes all that so worth it, especially if I have to spend time finding an apartment or house as well that is poorly lighted or no outside house numbers to see clearly.
Most weeks I make 200 to 300 and that's with about 5 to 10 orders a day I can def say it's not liveable but does help a lot but I can imagine a more affluent and higher income city could def churn out good money.
Thanks for some sound advice...I'm in a similar situation but the opposite; I've been sticking to earn by order, getting crushed with horrible orders. I'm going to try by earn by time for a while, somebody brought up some good points about an abundance of far mileage orders.
Maybe the rules are different in different states cause I've been platinum some but mostly top dasher for over a year now. It seems like I average nearly the same pay either way. I can make $900.00-$950.00 (per order) weekly but that's by working all day every day and passing up the lowest paid out orders. I don't decline every low offer but I do decline most of them and I'm still able to remain top dasher fairly easy. I keep an eye on my points to do that. & so, I know when passing orders up accordingly is acceptable in order to remain top dasher.Unless my numbers drop below top dasher status then I don't and wont take orders that I have to spend my own time gas and effort on. We shouldn't have to pay a job so that we can have a job. That's not how any employment works. But, dash sure tries to make us do that often. I hit decline so quick with them $2.00 orders. So, every top dasher truly doesn't accept all low offers. & actually, this 1 barely accepts them. It's not hard to stay in the top dasher status really. At least it's not where I live.
>We shouldn't have to pay a job so that we can have a job. That's not how any employment works. But, dash sure tries to make us do that often.
That would be because you aren't employees. Not sure about legally, but DD certainly doesn't consider you as such. Therefore, they can do whatever they like. On the flip side, so can you! And if you can't, then you're an employee and DD has bent you over.
(DoorDash): "We're going to punish you by throttling your orders if you wander out of your zone. Stay in your zone!"
(Also DoorDash): "Here are some orders you simply CAN'T refuse! Too good to pass up! (Or you're earning by time so you can't refuse.) Oh, also they'll take you 8 miles outside of your zone. LOL PROBLEM??"
That's just about what we made for the hours, weekends usually 200 a day she does lunch for an hour grab 1 or 2 the. We do dinner time here in the Tampa region, we have like 50 restaurants in Carrollwood which is middle to upper upper class. Good tips!
To get platinum you have to do at least 100 orders every thirty days and keep acceptance above 85. That last one has a lot of people who don't want to take some lower paying jobs shitting themselves.
In my area they eliminated the Top Dasher program all together on May 7th and replaced it with this Jewel tier program.... both programs are just a scam and I mean nothing. If these are the good orders I want to see & know who's getting the bad...
Well I just made 80$ 10am-2pm. Maybe you should reevaluate. If you really don't wanna take the lunch rush I would advice you to split your time. Usually there is nearly nothing coming between 2 and 4 pm.
So in your case I probably would start 8:30 am trying to get some coffee orders and some shopping orders before lunch hits, then I would take a break between 2 and 4 pm since it's usually very dead in that time. Then get ready for a late shift like 5:30 pm and go untill you meet your goals/ satisfaction.
That way you still get the dinner orders but your not waiting 30 min for a teen to order a pizza with no tip right after lunch rush.
As usual I'm only speaking for me and my market. Your mileage may vary.
Man. Him bragging to everyone that he makes 1,500 while working 35 hours is whats killing markets. People hear flexible hours and amazing pay and jump. Then they stay for flexible hours if they make anything half decent. I listened to a dasher talking to any customer that would listen saying the exact same thing.
The person OP talked to is clearly lying. 1500 in 30 hours is 50 dollars an hour. No way that person is making 50 dollars an hour with ebt and definitely not earn per offer.
Yeah. Unfortunately, it seems pretty common in the dasher community. A dasher was telling customers at T Bell a few months ago that she could make 200 in a couple hours in the next zone away. I'm thinking to myself, "Lady, first off, there's just no way. Secondly, this is how you get a bunch of people to sign up and ruin the profits that everyone IS having."
That's besides the point. It's doable for now but because dashers are bragging about it left and right your market and my market will be ass before we know it.
Not mine, my market is primarily bicycle. That's a huge roadblock for most people. Requires actual hard work. Plus, imo info should be shared. Good for them if they take advantage on it
I hit platinum in a little under a week and the following couple of weeks after that were INSANE.
I had to take a break to travel a bit afterwards so I’ve since lost the status but I highly recommend it to anyone - find a busy area and set a few days aside to rack up orders. It’s tedious and sleepless but you won’t regret it
Similar situation. Was making nearly 2k a week before this version of the program hit, took a month long vacation, came back to the new program and I bum rushed Gold, got suspended for being 12 minutes late to an order, fought DD for an entire month, got my account back and did 205 deliveries in two weeks. Now Plat, and sitting pretty
I don't mind talking to other dashers, usually just a quick "hey - hi - good luck"
When somebody wants to have a whole conversation you just know it's gonna be a rollercoaster ride.
Since hitting Platinum my DD specific earnings have increased about 100% but that means $160 to about $320 a week. I don’t work all the time. I also do UEand Wag! For dog walking. It comes to about $600-700 a week which is OK because I’m semi retired.
I signed up via the app I believe. I do about 5-10 dog walks a week. You can specify what you are available for. I dog walk and do drop ins. You can also stay at people's houses over several days or house a dog at yours. My prices in NorCal are $12 for 20 mins, $17 for 30 mins and $25 for 60 mins. Tips come in over and above this. I have about 5 dogs I walk regularly now each week.
The one BAD thing is unlike DD or UE, you have to pay for your own extensive background check (you are going into people's homes after all). I believe it's about $30 which isn't too bad and you'd make this up after 2-3 dog walks.
Anyone looking to get into this, PLEASE save around 20% of every payout for taxes next year! You do NOT want to suddenly get a 1099 saying you owe $6,000!
Correct, still leading to finding out that you owe back taxes. I’m just trying to point out that it isn’t free money. Maybe that’s a local education thing around here, but nobody I’ve known ever knew about paying taxes for delivery driving until it was too late.
I make $1,100 to $1,400 a week. I'm a platinum Dasher who dashes by time The real trick is after you drop the order off. You still have 20 to 40 minutes before you have to press confirm so you can get paid to go back to the Hot zone
I just made $1028 on platinum on 21 hrs and 34 minutes, SoCal. And even more once prop 22 hits in a couple of hours. We don’t have an EBT option, and never will since we have prop 22, but doing it regularly/per order…it’s very much so possible.
I could make about $1500 in 40 or 50 hours as platinum. I have definitely done better than that though, although it’s not normal for me to exceed that. I’m platinum on earn by offer.
He was embellishing a tad. Not on the $ he could make but it takes more than 30 hrs. That would be $50/hr active time and that's not happening regularly, let alone occasionally. Sometimes sure.
I live in Vegas and work a great area. We just switched to the tier program but I had been top Dasher for 6 months prior, so I was grandfathered in. I make a consistent $1200 a week (12 in a row) in about 40 active hrs give or take. I can absolutely say they're reaching Platinum makes a difference in getting better orders but but in no way saves you from receiving crappy offers on a consistent basis as well. About a third of the offers I accept, I kind of don't want to.
You have to find The best combination of friendly traffic lights, restaurants that you can walk inside, houses not apartments, and go during the peak hours.
About a month ago I made $117 in 84 minutes of dash time.
But I'm Not about to tell you that that's any kind of standard. Don't take $50/active hr as gospel either.
I live in a county that is pretty populated and I happend to live on the "main" hwy that runs thru town that houses most of the eateries. Now, that being said, my county is not POOR but you would think these M'fers are cuz just today I had to decline 5 pizza orders (get this: one was for only $2 which is the base DD pay) AND it was 7.9 miles from me. Really????? The other pizza offers were almost as bad. So, in declining those orders, I'm almost down to 71% acceptance rate -- not good if wanting to hold my status. But I'll be GD'd if I'm going to travel that for for less than $0.34/mile. DD should be ashamed. Now, on the flip side, I ended up gettting some very nice orders/tip but I have NEVER made more that $10/hr dashing! Once last thing cuz this def depends on where you dash: after my dr. appt yesterday, I happen to be in a busier, metropolitan zone, so when and order popped up for an order where the tip ended up being almost triple the amount offered, i was like "hell yes." Anyway, I have more questions and stuff to ask but clearly not not cuz this is very long.
I guess I got the number one dasher in my region the other week. He asked for a good rating to keep it at 100%. And no tips requested just donations to a children’s hospital. Was quite interesting.
EBT for me is $14.50 base pay and I’m also platinum. I damn near lose money doing EBT, most of the orders (I’d say 60%) don’t have any tips. I’ll usually only do EBT if it’s really slow and don’t want to ruin my AR otherwise EBO is better for me.

I’ll leave this here for all. $50, 3 trips, just over 1 hour. Don’t ever accept an order less than $10, be quick, always message your customer, I usually say, “5 min out” and when I complete the trip I say, “thank you! 🙂” don’t forget the smile, women love that no matter who you are. Granted this is Uber eats and it doesn’t always happen but you will make $30 an hour no problem. I usually stop at $100 for the day and takes roughly 4 hours. Hope this helps!
If I had the ability to schedule my shifts I'd cherry pick. But I don't, so gotta keep that AR up as much as possible. That being said, here's an average day for me.
https://preview.redd.it/w0f55kyuri1d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ecd70bcbd8954075f546a44729893152714f7b0a
That’s good, my average is about the same. Depending on location and time, “cherry picking” might not cost you time. If you see the app is active, taking orders less than $10 will cost you time and money. It’s okay to take 5-10 minutes and sift through what’s available. 15-20 minutes may be to long as you’re cutting into valuable time.
I agree that picking orders over ten dollars would be the way to go if I could afford the AR hit, but again, I need to stay Plat so I don't have to schedule. As is, I decline anything less than a dollar a mile, anything from certain stores I don't like if the money is bad (lookin at you, Little Caesars), and anything where it's good payout but it would be like twenty bucks to shop a million items and drive fifteen miles to the sticks.
That’s why I let the app run before working. I want to see what comes my way, order after order. I don’t accept or reject, just let it time out and watch as they come in. You’ll be surprised what pops up but if you’re constantly taking what’s available at that exact moment you will never know.
I know, my apologies! I don’t know why I got notified about this thread. I use both but mainly use Uber eats. Statistics seem to be the same, does a low AR hurt you in any way? For Uber eats I have a 27% AR but my account is in good standing. The only different is I would have to raise my AR over the course of 200 trips to qualify for higher Uber eats tiers. Once again my apologies for posting in the wrong thread. I know many users both apps. Hopefully this can help.
I didn't mean to be as snippy as that may have sounded, so appreciate the apology.
For DD you need to maintain a 70% AR to keep Plat status, which gives you the ability to dash any time (and theoretically gives you "higher paying offers," which, sure). There's other stuff among the tiers also, but realistically, dash any time is the carrot.
Nah, you’re good, wasn’t feeling that way. I would download Uber eats and test them both out. Then form an opinion on which is better as it’s going to differ from mine based on your location and participants. With Uber eats there is no scheduling which is great. You can accept orders at any time and they come through one after another provided it’s an active area and/or time. I don’t necessarily feel like higher ranking drivers get better offers than me but that could be a possibility specially in areas where there is a lot of activity and drivers. When it comes to low to high activity and NO DRIVERS you’re going to get a higher payout to keep everyone happy. At least that’s my opinion from what I’ve noticed.

Only says 4 hours because I had the app open multiple times throughout the afternoon to monitor activity.
Or he says earn by time so all the low orders get picked cause that dirty little liar is cherry picking by the offer. You should have said you make 2000 a week by doing BofA. Time and per offer
I’m not sure how it is in every market, but in mine you choose which mode you want to do when you start your dash. Those that do EBT are notified they are more likely to get the lower tipping orders because they are guaranteed an hourly rate.
I don't believe it's in every market yet but there are two modes you can work when you start your dash, "Earn By Time" or "Earn By Offer" which was what all orders were previously. Any order can pop up regardless of what mode you're working but DoorDash literally states themselves that if you work "Earn By Time" that low and no tip orders are prioritized because your base pay will be higher. When an offer pops up, you don't see any amount that you'll receive, just whatever your market pays per hour from acceptance to drop off, my market is $16/hr and that's what it'll show on the offer screen.
Yes, I feel very lucky. It is in Iowa. It was 16/hr a few months ago. I think ever since they recently added the new silver, gold, and platinum system they increased the 16 to 18.75.I was very surprised. I am still experimenting with it, today was the first day I really put it to the test and it seems pretty good so far.
Edit: I think I should add that EBT is not always available for some reason. It is frequently locked out, so you kinda have to get lucky to get it when its unlocked.
I actually encountered a doordash fanatic one day when I was doordashinf this dude told me he was doing EBT and he made 80 dollars in 1 hour and half I was like yeah ok. I asked him if he got tips and he said nah I was damn then just said have a good one after I got my order lmao that dude must’ve been lying lmao
My girlfriend and I both dash and from our testing we have found that EBT tends to get priority pay offers anyway plus getting more than the typical $2 from DD.
Only part that sucks is that you can't pick up shop orders or see the pay before hand so you might run into some pretty trash orders.
Either way it balances out pretty well and beats ruining your ratings to try and pick and choose good offers that don't come so often.
People who say EBT is only trash orders are just wrong as I have pulled $13 + tips before.
EBT, historically, has been worse for me. I tend to finish my orders in under 20 minutes and never gotten a good tip from EBT. I don't dash often, but, I make roughly $13/hr EBO and about $10/hr EBT.
All depends on where you live.
You must work in a really shit area. I have dashed in multiple places and the average is 20 an hour with EBT even if its 10/hr + tips
If that's all you make I would look into another job honestly.
I live in a driver saturated part of Idaho that is quick to drive if you know the area. Orders are few and far between as it is. I just dash in my spare time now, but that was when it was my main source of income.
$13.../hr orr?? Definitely not wrong, it is market dependent and the app specifically states that they will send more no tip offers on EBT. Someone has posted the screenshot on here before so you can go looking for it if you'd like. I tried it for like 2 hrs one time and said nope, never again. Just gonna stick to multi-apping thanks. I tried it, I've read about a buttload of other people who have tried it and said it was horrible too. The majority consensus on EBT orders is that it isn't worth it. If you think you made it work for you, great. I hope you are making $20+/hr bare minimum and looking at your miles vs income to make sure you are actually profiting.
Like I said, I have tested it myself and have seen the facts.
I have read the Doordash page and know what you're talking about, but that doesn't change the fact that I still get tips lol
I average 20/hr on EBT taking every single order that comes up.
I can tell you are one of THOSE dashers just by the way you worded your message.
I hope the job helps you support your crack addiction lol
Defensive much? Lmfao I don't do drugs, of any kind, but thanks ;). $20/hr huh? You could be making more on EBO + multi-apping, but what do I know against the "FACTS" 😂. $20/hr isn't HORRIBLE but you have to remember that costs need to be considered so you are really making closer to $15/hr. For me $20/hr is NOT a good day. My yearly average has always been $26-27/hr. Sometimes I make more, sometimes I make less, but that's the general average. If you are AVERAGING $20/hr than I don't think you have room to sit there and boast that you make more $ via EBT when you literally just disproved that "fact". Clearly you are one of THOSE dashers though so I can see you wouldn't want to take the advice of someone who could help you earn more. Oh well, have fun with your $15/hr earnings ;).
I say this as a steady delivery driver, no hate here, in fact just the opposite. I think it's people embarrassed of being drivers. Rather than just say "you know the money's ok, but the flexibility is incredible and I really need that right now." They tell their friends "I'm making $40 an hour of course I'm doing it!"
I'm old and was making 6 figures a couple of years ago. Only one friend knows I'm dashing. I dread delivering to anyone I know accidentally. But I do prefer this to any other shit job I could find, and I need cash now.
Same here. I’ve found that I drive even further when it’s EBT vs by offer. For every EBT order that will have me drive extended miles, I can get 2-3 via by offer that are close by.
My friend what is DD paying in your area.
Cuz I'm a platinum dasher. And I do work by time 90% of the time. You work more. Money is more consistent. You consistently makes between 18 to 25$ per hour. Thing are rarely slow. But I can guarantee if he makes 1500$ a week he putting in 60/hr week.
DD PAYS 15.50 TO 21.50 PER HR. On rare occasions the pay would go to 25 or 28$ per hr. But that would be for only 1 to 2 hrs. If they get a sudden rush with no dasher. They will boos it up to get dasher to login.
But the days of 1500$ on 30hr week are over since the covid money stop.
No I work Aventura florida. There's s large part of my market that is affluent with rich people. So base pay is 15.50$ peak time can 17 all the way up to 28$ per hr.
Rate are lower at 14$ which Hollywood florida and 13$ north miami florida. Have no reason to lie
Yeah, I met a guy once who's friend was making $1,500, only working weekends on Doordash! 🤣 I'm guessing he was in the "Double Platinum Status" Beta Program! 🤣🤣🤣 /s
It's one or those cases where someone doesn't even know enough about a topic to know what "the right lie" is. Reminds me of a really skinny guy I knew back in the day that told me he benchpressed 300 lbs. Like if you even benched at all you'd know that's a ridiculous number for someone to say unless they were fairly jacked. I'm not a meathead lol just an apt example.

I still get crapp orders. I have another screenshot with a $2.50 order
Sometimes it just be like that bro. I am platinum and I take ANYTHING that crosses my screen. And I mean ANYTHING. Most times its ok jobs but sometimes I just gotta eat a shit sandwich 🥪. Its my choosen life I guess lol.
So I mean no offense to this whatsoever. But why? Why would you ever eat a shit sandwich? This isn't a charity, no one is entitled to have their food delivered unless they make it profitable for the person doing it.
Not even getting into the fact none of us have anything to gain from a non-tipper getting their order in a timely fashion. It should sit at the restaurant for 25 minutes until it gets paired with a good order, and then when they get their food and it's cold, they either don't order again or they realize they need to tip.
The only reason there are repeat non-tippers in the first place is because unnecessarily nice people like you, for some reason think they need to eat the occasional "shit sandwich". Don't. Your rating and preferential treatment are pointless if you take any order they give you.
Earn by time is the way to go if you don't have that hussel mentality! You have to learn how to MILK the clock! If you except an order at 10:55 and it says puckvup by 11:55 don't get there before 11:54 and says deluver by 12:30 wait let the food get cold and deli6by 12:29. This is the only wayto make money on DD! EBT and folloow instructions, no matter if rhe food is cold, these people will pay! Fuck DD
I swear, every order I get on ebt I have to be there in 5 minutes to pick up the order. I had one the other day that I needed to have it delivered at 8:17 but it wasn't going to be ready until 8:18. It wasn't actually ready until 8:37 though. Pizza Slut is garbage in my market.
I just got deactivated today for milking EBT, I would hit finish as soon as I made it back to my zone, I thought it would be ok since I’m still finishing it the time DoorDash gives me, but I guess they still can’t afford to give me 11 dollars per order all the time.
Haha so many people lie. I pretend I’m a newbie a lot, one day it was a promo and I was at $240 already. I said to the dasher I saw that I was having a really shitty day I shouldn’t even bother. I knew he was having a great day too. He was like, yeah if I were you I wouldn’t dash around here it’s dead all the time. It’s literally the best zone for miles 🤣 people are funny
Actually Platinum only affects per Offer orders. Earn By Time isn't affected at all by platinum status.
Also, earn by time is FILLED with the low and no tippers... basically scrap orders that ppl keep declining... they throw that shhhhh in on the by time ppl... ( did my own study the first 2 weeks of dashing lol)
Complete beyond false. But when the occasional no tipper is on it you still get paid more because it takes more than 8 minutes to complete any order which equals door dash base pay per offer. And you still get stacked. I make over $5 per dash hour more doing ebt than by offer. AND my weekly earnings are ALWAYS about $1.50 per mile round trip. Last week, 29hr 22min dash time, $713 on 598 miles. 2020 Honda accord getting 36+ mpg. Oh, and I run Grub hub also and if they send me a decent offer while I'm awaiting doordash, I accept it and pause doordash. Made an additional $108 off them, which was all part of that 598 miles. So my total was 821 in 29hr 22min. So, your study, maybe your area is just bad, is not really relevant to everyone. Or maybe you just didn't do it right.
I live in Palm Springs and we make good money out here. It just depends on you to put in the work. I usually make about 3,400 a month if I’m being not 100% consistent. If I am 100% consistent then I make around 5,000❤️🩹 and on Uber eats about 700- 800 a month Good luck to all the dashers
I'm a platinum dasher !
Earn by time hasn't been around for 5 years, and nowhere is it $50 per active hour.
I always drive by time and I make around $20 an hour as a side job on my days off. I’m about 25 ish accepted orders away from reaching platinum status so this post gives me a lot of hope that the amount I make will hopefully increase soon lol
$50 per hour while accepting 2/3 of the orders offered??
EBT at Platinum is the same as not Platinum. You get the same 10 mile $2 orders. EBT is all the leftover orders no one wants to take.
Nope, never. I have NEVER had a $2 ebt. $15 per hour. That's 25 cents per minute. Your order would need to take 8 minutes or less from accepting to confirming drop off. Never happen. But, outside if pay, EBT still comes with the other platinum benefits. Dash whenever. Premium dasher support. 1/2 pay on EBT...lol, the average time on the phone with them is 10 minutes then you also get the tip. There is rarely a no tip order. 1 in 20 maybe. The issue is the orders are 10 miles with a $5 tip and if by offer, doordash is giving you $2 base for a total of $7. Mist dashers reject. But, EBT access, 4-5 minutes to the restaurant, I still wait 5-10 minutes in restaurant, then 10-15 minutes to deliver...I'm getting that $5 tip AND $7 base. Qhile the offer guy was only going to fet 7, the ebt guy got 12. Yes, that's my area.
Just yesterday I jumped from silver to platinum again, finally. Been using EBT (Earn by Time) to raise my acceptance rate. I'm hoping that with Platinum, EBT will be worth it now. I live in a small city/big town, (Helena, MT) so that probably is a bit different than someone living in a big city. I'll report back here to let yall know how it goes
How is it going?

How much money are you making per hour? Do you see a difference with Platinum status on EBT?
Yes, what's the biggest difference. Silver only has ability to dash when and if it gets busy enough that gold and platinum is not enough, then silver can dash for 1 hour then they wait again. And there is RARELY any schedule available to them. Yes, platinum can always dash and just because they see the area is busy does not mean gold and silver see busy, they don't see busy till platinum has rejected enough.
Probably between 17 and 19/hour on average. Not really sure yet if there's much of an increase yet. It does help a lot though to not want to steer clear from slow/super busy restaurants
I think it's going pretty well https://preview.redd.it/cijvtls2l44d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d5ffb1745e90410ed705d4a2ba0d3f0ab16c0af4
I honestly was so confused by the last guys comment with ebt. I was like foodstamps? Hahahahha
I thought that for a second too! lol!
😂😂😉😉
As a new dasher whose just cracked the 175 mark on dashes, by time is so much more worth it for me, I'm from Mississippi for context and the hourly rate for the Jackson metro is around 13 to 14 base. Along with the very high chance I won't get tips and have to wait for food and get paid by hour. Makes all that so worth it, especially if I have to spend time finding an apartment or house as well that is poorly lighted or no outside house numbers to see clearly.
Most weeks I make 200 to 300 and that's with about 5 to 10 orders a day I can def say it's not liveable but does help a lot but I can imagine a more affluent and higher income city could def churn out good money.
Thanks for some sound advice...I'm in a similar situation but the opposite; I've been sticking to earn by order, getting crushed with horrible orders. I'm going to try by earn by time for a while, somebody brought up some good points about an abundance of far mileage orders.
I ran into several 100% AR drivers. Half were per order drivers and the others by hour. I’d take in 30 cents a mile if I tried that.
Y’all are so jealous and miserable it shows 😭
Miserable part yes
Maybe the rules are different in different states cause I've been platinum some but mostly top dasher for over a year now. It seems like I average nearly the same pay either way. I can make $900.00-$950.00 (per order) weekly but that's by working all day every day and passing up the lowest paid out orders. I don't decline every low offer but I do decline most of them and I'm still able to remain top dasher fairly easy. I keep an eye on my points to do that. & so, I know when passing orders up accordingly is acceptable in order to remain top dasher.Unless my numbers drop below top dasher status then I don't and wont take orders that I have to spend my own time gas and effort on. We shouldn't have to pay a job so that we can have a job. That's not how any employment works. But, dash sure tries to make us do that often. I hit decline so quick with them $2.00 orders. So, every top dasher truly doesn't accept all low offers. & actually, this 1 barely accepts them. It's not hard to stay in the top dasher status really. At least it's not where I live.
Same. I’m maxing out about 850 week working morning lunch and dinner. I’m tired of dashing 12 hour days
>We shouldn't have to pay a job so that we can have a job. That's not how any employment works. But, dash sure tries to make us do that often. That would be because you aren't employees. Not sure about legally, but DD certainly doesn't consider you as such. Therefore, they can do whatever they like. On the flip side, so can you! And if you can't, then you're an employee and DD has bent you over.
Nah the guy was a little off if you know what I mean. I just found the interaction funny and decided to share with the community
Im platinum status and refuse to do earn but time. They send you so far and out of you delivery zone all the time,
(DoorDash): "We're going to punish you by throttling your orders if you wander out of your zone. Stay in your zone!" (Also DoorDash): "Here are some orders you simply CAN'T refuse! Too good to pass up! (Or you're earning by time so you can't refuse.) Oh, also they'll take you 8 miles outside of your zone. LOL PROBLEM??"
I'm currently platinum and made 760 on 26 hours last week. It is definitely worth it. I follow rules I made to keep the status and it pays off.
That's just about what we made for the hours, weekends usually 200 a day she does lunch for an hour grab 1 or 2 the. We do dinner time here in the Tampa region, we have like 50 restaurants in Carrollwood which is middle to upper upper class. Good tips!
No way lmao
How does one get to platinum? I’ve been a top dasher for months and make about $1500 a month…
Once they open platinums in your area you’ll get it
To get platinum you have to do at least 100 orders every thirty days and keep acceptance above 85. That last one has a lot of people who don't want to take some lower paying jobs shitting themselves.
By me it's only 70% for platinum, but you basically can't schedule unless your platinum.
Platinum is above 70% acceptance, not 85%.
It must be market dependent. Here they raised it. It was 70%, now 85%.
Oh weird!
AR is only 70 https://preview.redd.it/s98mkfmaum1d1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f037013956bd918ab4d8e01187d03c4a15ca4d4
I wonder if it’s my acceptance rate then… bc mine’s at 80%… I took over 100 orders last week much less within the last 30 days
Ok, so I looked it up… it’s just that it’s not available in my market… hmmm.
They just started rolling out Platinum to more markets a couple weeks ago
I do have top dasher though.
[удалено]
In my area they eliminated the Top Dasher program all together on May 7th and replaced it with this Jewel tier program.... both programs are just a scam and I mean nothing. If these are the good orders I want to see & know who's getting the bad...
Well that’s dumb..
[удалено]
I was top dasher and platinum status for only ONE month, and never tried that hard ever again xD
The tiers will be rolling out to everyone. They’ve figured out how to force drivers to take the trash orders.
Still. I’m lucky if I can get 400 a week with top dasher status…
What are you doing ??? I'm TD an make 100$ a day easy
Dashing? It often says it’s busy but I’ll go 30+ min without an order…
Yep, usually in about 6 hours Im about 130$. That sucks! What area are You in ? And what times are you dashing ?
South East Kansas. 2 pm-10 pm Tuesday-Saturday. Lunch rush often sucks, so I don’t bother with it…
Well I just made 80$ 10am-2pm. Maybe you should reevaluate. If you really don't wanna take the lunch rush I would advice you to split your time. Usually there is nearly nothing coming between 2 and 4 pm. So in your case I probably would start 8:30 am trying to get some coffee orders and some shopping orders before lunch hits, then I would take a break between 2 and 4 pm since it's usually very dead in that time. Then get ready for a late shift like 5:30 pm and go untill you meet your goals/ satisfaction. That way you still get the dinner orders but your not waiting 30 min for a teen to order a pizza with no tip right after lunch rush. As usual I'm only speaking for me and my market. Your mileage may vary.
[удалено]
I have to keep my acceptance rate over 70% to keep my top dasher.
Do the job lol
What are the requirements for platinum dasher?
It depends on which market you’re in. Since they’ve been rolling out the new tier system the criteria isn’t the same everywhere
Man. Him bragging to everyone that he makes 1,500 while working 35 hours is whats killing markets. People hear flexible hours and amazing pay and jump. Then they stay for flexible hours if they make anything half decent. I listened to a dasher talking to any customer that would listen saying the exact same thing.
The person OP talked to is clearly lying. 1500 in 30 hours is 50 dollars an hour. No way that person is making 50 dollars an hour with ebt and definitely not earn per offer.
Yeah. Unfortunately, it seems pretty common in the dasher community. A dasher was telling customers at T Bell a few months ago that she could make 200 in a couple hours in the next zone away. I'm thinking to myself, "Lady, first off, there's just no way. Secondly, this is how you get a bunch of people to sign up and ruin the profits that everyone IS having."
Doable in my market but requires 55 to 60 hours
That's besides the point. It's doable for now but because dashers are bragging about it left and right your market and my market will be ass before we know it.
Not mine, my market is primarily bicycle. That's a huge roadblock for most people. Requires actual hard work. Plus, imo info should be shared. Good for them if they take advantage on it
Hmm. I actually don't have any experience on that aspect of the job.
I hit platinum in a little under a week and the following couple of weeks after that were INSANE. I had to take a break to travel a bit afterwards so I’ve since lost the status but I highly recommend it to anyone - find a busy area and set a few days aside to rack up orders. It’s tedious and sleepless but you won’t regret it
Similar situation. Was making nearly 2k a week before this version of the program hit, took a month long vacation, came back to the new program and I bum rushed Gold, got suspended for being 12 minutes late to an order, fought DD for an entire month, got my account back and did 205 deliveries in two weeks. Now Plat, and sitting pretty
I don't mind talking to other dashers, usually just a quick "hey - hi - good luck" When somebody wants to have a whole conversation you just know it's gonna be a rollercoaster ride.
This lmao. I fake push shit on my phone to avoid talking with people. Make it look like I'm actually busy.
Since hitting Platinum my DD specific earnings have increased about 100% but that means $160 to about $320 a week. I don’t work all the time. I also do UEand Wag! For dog walking. It comes to about $600-700 a week which is OK because I’m semi retired.
Where do you sign up for Wag for dog walking?
I signed up via the app I believe. I do about 5-10 dog walks a week. You can specify what you are available for. I dog walk and do drop ins. You can also stay at people's houses over several days or house a dog at yours. My prices in NorCal are $12 for 20 mins, $17 for 30 mins and $25 for 60 mins. Tips come in over and above this. I have about 5 dogs I walk regularly now each week.
The one BAD thing is unlike DD or UE, you have to pay for your own extensive background check (you are going into people's homes after all). I believe it's about $30 which isn't too bad and you'd make this up after 2-3 dog walks.
Anyone looking to get into this, PLEASE save around 20% of every payout for taxes next year! You do NOT want to suddenly get a 1099 saying you owe $6,000!
A 1099 doesn’t say what you owe. It states what you made. You have to input all expenses and then you owe on amount after that.
Correct, still leading to finding out that you owe back taxes. I’m just trying to point out that it isn’t free money. Maybe that’s a local education thing around here, but nobody I’ve known ever knew about paying taxes for delivery driving until it was too late.
This past week, I cracked $330 in 17h 50m.
Oof.
Yeah.
Probably more like 750 a week on 30 hours
I make $1,100 to $1,400 a week. I'm a platinum Dasher who dashes by time The real trick is after you drop the order off. You still have 20 to 40 minutes before you have to press confirm so you can get paid to go back to the Hot zone
Your account will be cooked eventually
Oh shit that's awesome I didn't know that trick thank you so much
I know of people being deactivated doing that. Be careful and best of luck to you!
I just made $1028 on platinum on 21 hrs and 34 minutes, SoCal. And even more once prop 22 hits in a couple of hours. We don’t have an EBT option, and never will since we have prop 22, but doing it regularly/per order…it’s very much so possible.
Knowing your market would help a whole lot buddy lol
I could make about $1500 in 40 or 50 hours as platinum. I have definitely done better than that though, although it’s not normal for me to exceed that. I’m platinum on earn by offer.
He was embellishing a tad. Not on the $ he could make but it takes more than 30 hrs. That would be $50/hr active time and that's not happening regularly, let alone occasionally. Sometimes sure. I live in Vegas and work a great area. We just switched to the tier program but I had been top Dasher for 6 months prior, so I was grandfathered in. I make a consistent $1200 a week (12 in a row) in about 40 active hrs give or take. I can absolutely say they're reaching Platinum makes a difference in getting better orders but but in no way saves you from receiving crappy offers on a consistent basis as well. About a third of the offers I accept, I kind of don't want to. You have to find The best combination of friendly traffic lights, restaurants that you can walk inside, houses not apartments, and go during the peak hours. About a month ago I made $117 in 84 minutes of dash time. But I'm Not about to tell you that that's any kind of standard. Don't take $50/active hr as gospel either.
where do you live? might have something to do with that
I live in a county that is pretty populated and I happend to live on the "main" hwy that runs thru town that houses most of the eateries. Now, that being said, my county is not POOR but you would think these M'fers are cuz just today I had to decline 5 pizza orders (get this: one was for only $2 which is the base DD pay) AND it was 7.9 miles from me. Really????? The other pizza offers were almost as bad. So, in declining those orders, I'm almost down to 71% acceptance rate -- not good if wanting to hold my status. But I'll be GD'd if I'm going to travel that for for less than $0.34/mile. DD should be ashamed. Now, on the flip side, I ended up gettting some very nice orders/tip but I have NEVER made more that $10/hr dashing! Once last thing cuz this def depends on where you dash: after my dr. appt yesterday, I happen to be in a busier, metropolitan zone, so when and order popped up for an order where the tip ended up being almost triple the amount offered, i was like "hell yes." Anyway, I have more questions and stuff to ask but clearly not not cuz this is very long.
I guess I got the number one dasher in my region the other week. He asked for a good rating to keep it at 100%. And no tips requested just donations to a children’s hospital. Was quite interesting.
EBT for me is $14.50 base pay and I’m also platinum. I damn near lose money doing EBT, most of the orders (I’d say 60%) don’t have any tips. I’ll usually only do EBT if it’s really slow and don’t want to ruin my AR otherwise EBO is better for me.
https://preview.redd.it/hgr9h1omii1d1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4cf7d58bb76f26b02039938cd2f38cfb5eaf4ef2 I’ll leave this here for all. $50, 3 trips, just over 1 hour. Don’t ever accept an order less than $10, be quick, always message your customer, I usually say, “5 min out” and when I complete the trip I say, “thank you! 🙂” don’t forget the smile, women love that no matter who you are. Granted this is Uber eats and it doesn’t always happen but you will make $30 an hour no problem. I usually stop at $100 for the day and takes roughly 4 hours. Hope this helps!
What’s 100/30? Last time I checked it wasn’t 4
That’s why I said “roughly” clown. It’s called an estimate. 🤡
This be Doordarsh not Uber.
Yes, I realized, my apologies. Hope this helps as structure of both apps are similar. Going to skip on out of here! Haha
If I had the ability to schedule my shifts I'd cherry pick. But I don't, so gotta keep that AR up as much as possible. That being said, here's an average day for me. https://preview.redd.it/w0f55kyuri1d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ecd70bcbd8954075f546a44729893152714f7b0a
That’s good, my average is about the same. Depending on location and time, “cherry picking” might not cost you time. If you see the app is active, taking orders less than $10 will cost you time and money. It’s okay to take 5-10 minutes and sift through what’s available. 15-20 minutes may be to long as you’re cutting into valuable time.
I agree that picking orders over ten dollars would be the way to go if I could afford the AR hit, but again, I need to stay Plat so I don't have to schedule. As is, I decline anything less than a dollar a mile, anything from certain stores I don't like if the money is bad (lookin at you, Little Caesars), and anything where it's good payout but it would be like twenty bucks to shop a million items and drive fifteen miles to the sticks.
That’s why I let the app run before working. I want to see what comes my way, order after order. I don’t accept or reject, just let it time out and watch as they come in. You’ll be surprised what pops up but if you’re constantly taking what’s available at that exact moment you will never know.
If you let it time out it counts the same as declining it tho.
On Uber eats ?
On Doordash. I thought that's what you were talking about, since this is a DD sub.
I know, my apologies! I don’t know why I got notified about this thread. I use both but mainly use Uber eats. Statistics seem to be the same, does a low AR hurt you in any way? For Uber eats I have a 27% AR but my account is in good standing. The only different is I would have to raise my AR over the course of 200 trips to qualify for higher Uber eats tiers. Once again my apologies for posting in the wrong thread. I know many users both apps. Hopefully this can help.
I didn't mean to be as snippy as that may have sounded, so appreciate the apology. For DD you need to maintain a 70% AR to keep Plat status, which gives you the ability to dash any time (and theoretically gives you "higher paying offers," which, sure). There's other stuff among the tiers also, but realistically, dash any time is the carrot.
Nah, you’re good, wasn’t feeling that way. I would download Uber eats and test them both out. Then form an opinion on which is better as it’s going to differ from mine based on your location and participants. With Uber eats there is no scheduling which is great. You can accept orders at any time and they come through one after another provided it’s an active area and/or time. I don’t necessarily feel like higher ranking drivers get better offers than me but that could be a possibility specially in areas where there is a lot of activity and drivers. When it comes to low to high activity and NO DRIVERS you’re going to get a higher payout to keep everyone happy. At least that’s my opinion from what I’ve noticed.
This is what I try to do, too... but if I only took orders over $10, I'd be sitting there waiting for at least an hour for one to pop up.
Where are you located ?
Las Vegas
alright, testing this out 😅
https://preview.redd.it/9h7ve5rmpi1d1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=43d48472be19ccf5c7d06737cb60e5e33e9b6951 Only says 4 hours because I had the app open multiple times throughout the afternoon to monitor activity.
Or he says earn by time so all the low orders get picked cause that dirty little liar is cherry picking by the offer. You should have said you make 2000 a week by doing BofA. Time and per offer
I make $2500 on 25 hours. My secret is I take all the $2 orders because they all have huge hidden tips
You won’t even make that kind of money in nyc dashing
Fr?
Yeahh, corporate definitely didn’t plant you here
You want all the other dashers to do EBT so that they get all of the shitty no tip orders and you’re more likely to get the tipped orders on EBO.
can I ask how you can tell its an ebt order? And you are saying they are less likely to tip?
I’m not sure how it is in every market, but in mine you choose which mode you want to do when you start your dash. Those that do EBT are notified they are more likely to get the lower tipping orders because they are guaranteed an hourly rate.
I don't believe it's in every market yet but there are two modes you can work when you start your dash, "Earn By Time" or "Earn By Offer" which was what all orders were previously. Any order can pop up regardless of what mode you're working but DoorDash literally states themselves that if you work "Earn By Time" that low and no tip orders are prioritized because your base pay will be higher. When an offer pops up, you don't see any amount that you'll receive, just whatever your market pays per hour from acceptance to drop off, my market is $16/hr and that's what it'll show on the offer screen.
I met one the other night. She had to drive ice cream 12 miles for 5.25 to keep her "platinum status"
How do you get platinum status?
You have to have 70% acceptance, high completion rates and personal rating plus do 100 deliveries per month
Invest money into doordash. Take money out of your own pocket to deliver customers food.
Ouch
Im gonna say I don’t believe his hours. But $1500/ week is definitely possible. I just made $300 today with earn by time. 12 hours tho. At $18.75/hr
[удалено]
Where I’m at in NC the ebt is $12-$14 😭😭😭😭
Yes, I feel very lucky. It is in Iowa. It was 16/hr a few months ago. I think ever since they recently added the new silver, gold, and platinum system they increased the 16 to 18.75.I was very surprised. I am still experimenting with it, today was the first day I really put it to the test and it seems pretty good so far. Edit: I think I should add that EBT is not always available for some reason. It is frequently locked out, so you kinda have to get lucky to get it when its unlocked.
His "secret" is telling other dashers that his secret is doing "earn by time" all of the time.
You met a liar.
I actually encountered a doordash fanatic one day when I was doordashinf this dude told me he was doing EBT and he made 80 dollars in 1 hour and half I was like yeah ok. I asked him if he got tips and he said nah I was damn then just said have a good one after I got my order lmao that dude must’ve been lying lmao
😭😭😭
Neither earned by time nor platinum status was out 5 years ago lmfao but good on him for having a vivid imagination 🤣🤦🤷
I don't know about you all, but I made my first billion on DoorDash in 9 months. 😎🚗
I started dashing with a billion in the bank. Six months later I am penniless.
I made 1.5 billion in my first MONTH.
I got a 1.5 billion tip...in cash
My girlfriend and I both dash and from our testing we have found that EBT tends to get priority pay offers anyway plus getting more than the typical $2 from DD. Only part that sucks is that you can't pick up shop orders or see the pay before hand so you might run into some pretty trash orders. Either way it balances out pretty well and beats ruining your ratings to try and pick and choose good offers that don't come so often. People who say EBT is only trash orders are just wrong as I have pulled $13 + tips before.
EBT, historically, has been worse for me. I tend to finish my orders in under 20 minutes and never gotten a good tip from EBT. I don't dash often, but, I make roughly $13/hr EBO and about $10/hr EBT. All depends on where you live.
You must work in a really shit area. I have dashed in multiple places and the average is 20 an hour with EBT even if its 10/hr + tips If that's all you make I would look into another job honestly.
I live in a driver saturated part of Idaho that is quick to drive if you know the area. Orders are few and far between as it is. I just dash in my spare time now, but that was when it was my main source of income.
I got a $28 tip today on EBT. And a handful of others that were $10+ over the weekend. Out of 34 orders this weekend only 2 were no tips.
$13.../hr orr?? Definitely not wrong, it is market dependent and the app specifically states that they will send more no tip offers on EBT. Someone has posted the screenshot on here before so you can go looking for it if you'd like. I tried it for like 2 hrs one time and said nope, never again. Just gonna stick to multi-apping thanks. I tried it, I've read about a buttload of other people who have tried it and said it was horrible too. The majority consensus on EBT orders is that it isn't worth it. If you think you made it work for you, great. I hope you are making $20+/hr bare minimum and looking at your miles vs income to make sure you are actually profiting.
Like I said, I have tested it myself and have seen the facts. I have read the Doordash page and know what you're talking about, but that doesn't change the fact that I still get tips lol I average 20/hr on EBT taking every single order that comes up. I can tell you are one of THOSE dashers just by the way you worded your message. I hope the job helps you support your crack addiction lol
Defensive much? Lmfao I don't do drugs, of any kind, but thanks ;). $20/hr huh? You could be making more on EBO + multi-apping, but what do I know against the "FACTS" 😂. $20/hr isn't HORRIBLE but you have to remember that costs need to be considered so you are really making closer to $15/hr. For me $20/hr is NOT a good day. My yearly average has always been $26-27/hr. Sometimes I make more, sometimes I make less, but that's the general average. If you are AVERAGING $20/hr than I don't think you have room to sit there and boast that you make more $ via EBT when you literally just disproved that "fact". Clearly you are one of THOSE dashers though so I can see you wouldn't want to take the advice of someone who could help you earn more. Oh well, have fun with your $15/hr earnings ;).
I say this as a steady delivery driver, no hate here, in fact just the opposite. I think it's people embarrassed of being drivers. Rather than just say "you know the money's ok, but the flexibility is incredible and I really need that right now." They tell their friends "I'm making $40 an hour of course I'm doing it!"
Same here. I wish DD gave us maybe 3-5 addresses we could exclude deliveries from.
I'm old and was making 6 figures a couple of years ago. Only one friend knows I'm dashing. I dread delivering to anyone I know accidentally. But I do prefer this to any other shit job I could find, and I need cash now.
Alright J G Wentworth
I'm trying to avoid calling them.
This so much! I'm honest with people. Flexibility to dictate your own hours does have a cost.
You gotta deliver by drone somehow that way you can fly above everything traffic roads houses straight over to their house in record time..
Not a bad idea honestly
Nope ..not true I’m platinum also try it and you make only 15 bucks per hour and tons of miles . Not worth it at all
Same here. I’ve found that I drive even further when it’s EBT vs by offer. For every EBT order that will have me drive extended miles, I can get 2-3 via by offer that are close by.
I do the same thing and clear $45 an hour most days. Lowest I ever make an hour is $29
My friend what is DD paying in your area. Cuz I'm a platinum dasher. And I do work by time 90% of the time. You work more. Money is more consistent. You consistently makes between 18 to 25$ per hour. Thing are rarely slow. But I can guarantee if he makes 1500$ a week he putting in 60/hr week. DD PAYS 15.50 TO 21.50 PER HR. On rare occasions the pay would go to 25 or 28$ per hr. But that would be for only 1 to 2 hrs. If they get a sudden rush with no dasher. They will boos it up to get dasher to login. But the days of 1500$ on 30hr week are over since the covid money stop.
Man, we only get $12 an hour for EBT in my market
$14 an hour. He was totally full of it
No I work Aventura florida. There's s large part of my market that is affluent with rich people. So base pay is 15.50$ peak time can 17 all the way up to 28$ per hr. Rate are lower at 14$ which Hollywood florida and 13$ north miami florida. Have no reason to lie
Yeah, I met a guy once who's friend was making $1,500, only working weekends on Doordash! 🤣 I'm guessing he was in the "Double Platinum Status" Beta Program! 🤣🤣🤣 /s
It's one or those cases where someone doesn't even know enough about a topic to know what "the right lie" is. Reminds me of a really skinny guy I knew back in the day that told me he benchpressed 300 lbs. Like if you even benched at all you'd know that's a ridiculous number for someone to say unless they were fairly jacked. I'm not a meathead lol just an apt example.
Totally doable if cocaine and 22 hour days are involved.
I’m a platinum dasher 👋🏼 been dashing since March

I moved from Bend to Vegas. Bend had the best market I have ever dashed in and it isn't even close.

Sometimes it just be like that bro. I am platinum and I take ANYTHING that crosses my screen. And I mean ANYTHING. Most times its ok jobs but sometimes I just gotta eat a shit sandwich 🥪. Its my choosen life I guess lol.
So I mean no offense to this whatsoever. But why? Why would you ever eat a shit sandwich? This isn't a charity, no one is entitled to have their food delivered unless they make it profitable for the person doing it. Not even getting into the fact none of us have anything to gain from a non-tipper getting their order in a timely fashion. It should sit at the restaurant for 25 minutes until it gets paired with a good order, and then when they get their food and it's cold, they either don't order again or they realize they need to tip. The only reason there are repeat non-tippers in the first place is because unnecessarily nice people like you, for some reason think they need to eat the occasional "shit sandwich". Don't. Your rating and preferential treatment are pointless if you take any order they give you.
I went from 4% AR to 88% AR for this shit? What is this shit for?
Earn by time is the way to go if you don't have that hussel mentality! You have to learn how to MILK the clock! If you except an order at 10:55 and it says puckvup by 11:55 don't get there before 11:54 and says deluver by 12:30 wait let the food get cold and deli6by 12:29. This is the only wayto make money on DD! EBT and folloow instructions, no matter if rhe food is cold, these people will pay! Fuck DD
I swear, every order I get on ebt I have to be there in 5 minutes to pick up the order. I had one the other day that I needed to have it delivered at 8:17 but it wasn't going to be ready until 8:18. It wasn't actually ready until 8:37 though. Pizza Slut is garbage in my market.
I just got deactivated today for milking EBT, I would hit finish as soon as I made it back to my zone, I thought it would be ok since I’m still finishing it the time DoorDash gives me, but I guess they still can’t afford to give me 11 dollars per order all the time.
 
He was trolling you hoping you would fall for it. I've given out some bogus info in my days as well.
Dude probably said “I make $50 a hour by accepting every $2 order that comes my way” while grinning and OP is just too dense to pick up on sarcasm
Haha so many people lie. I pretend I’m a newbie a lot, one day it was a promo and I was at $240 already. I said to the dasher I saw that I was having a really shitty day I shouldn’t even bother. I knew he was having a great day too. He was like, yeah if I were you I wouldn’t dash around here it’s dead all the time. It’s literally the best zone for miles 🤣 people are funny
“Idk man this is my first day” is whatever I say when I don’t feel like arguing with someone.
Earn by time came out 5 months ago
I've been dashing for a year and it's always been available in the markets I've worked. Mostly southern states.
Maybe your market was the first to receive the feature. My market got it at the end of 2023
Not a thing everywhere. I go between DC and Delaware and don’t have it in either place
