How much will you earn? Dashers make a base pay, plus tips. You can also earn more money during special challenges and during Peak Pay hours. Base pay is calculated based on the estimated time, distance, and desirability of the order.

What is required to be a Dasher? You need to be 18 years or older, have a vehicle like a car, scooter, or bicycle, have proper documentation, like a driver’s license number or Social Security number, and consent to a background check.

How long does it take to become a Dasher? The sign-up process takes just a few minutes, and most Dashers can start earning within days.

Does it cost money? No. There are no out-of-pocket payments to become a Dasher. You won’t need to cover the cost of customers’ purchases either. After you sign up to become a Dasher, you’ll receive a Dasher Red Card in your welcome kit to pay for DoorDash orders.
