Re-posting for the fggts in here with the , hur dur tip or dont order mentality. fukk that tip and fukk youIts frustrating because these companies can definitely pay more. Why do people pick and chose when they want to present "data" to support a position, then go off of pure emotions in other situations? I posted above that the average delivery app set up cost is $10-70k depending on the features of the app. The delivery company has 0 cars and 0 cost for rent for a brick and mortar.. This is how the fees break down for "delivery" after the start up costs.
"How much does DoorDash charge in fees? Unlike its competitors, DoorDash charges a flat service fee of 15% of your bill. Like Uber Eats and GrubHub, DoorDash also charges a delivery fee set by restaurants and a service fee that goes to the app in addition to the cost of your food".
So doordash charge a 15% service fee for all orders.. If it costs at max $70k to start a delivery app, and you charge a 15% flat fee for every order, you can possibly knock out that $70k in a few months.. So after they've knocked out the $70k for the start up, that 15% fee is profit from that point forward. How much staff do you need to run a app? All this money and they're probably paying lazy mfers a salary to do nothing behind the scenes, versus paying the people who make your operation what it is.
Then it says the f*cking restaurants charges a f*cking fee for the food they didn't have to deliver, for a car they don't own as well. And that service fee is charged in addition to the 15% flat rate for ALL orders..
With all this information about how the restaurants AND the delivery app is f*cking over the driver, why are people b*tching about the customer when they already paid all these fees? Probably because its easier to stand up to the customer than it is the actual people who is f*cking the drivers over.
People need to learn how to place all that energy in the right places then sh*t will change.
