Pick the best plan for your store

When you list your business on DoorDash Marketplace, you pay a percentage of the order subtotal — known as a "commission rate" — for each order processed through our platform.

Drive On-Demand connects your business with drivers to complete deliveries placed on your ordering platform. When customers order from your website, app, or other channels, we charge a flat per-order fee (not a commission percentage) for you to use Dashers to deliver orders.

DoorDash charges fees and commission rates to bring value to your business and community. Here are some of the items they cover:

Advertising and marketing: Being on the DoorDash app puts your business in front of new customers every day.

Delivery driver costs: We empower our community of Dashers, who make every delivery possible by providing them flexible earning opportunities with competitive local pay, promotional pay, 24/7 support, third party insurance, and exclusive discounts. Learn more about the Dasher Community at Dasher Central.

Customer service and support for consumers, merchants, and Dashers: Customers, business owners, and Dashers all have unique needs that often need addressing immediately. When something goes wrong with an order, we have a 24/7/365 team of people ready to help solve customer issues, so they'll continue to order from your business.

Technology platform costs: It takes a worldwide, world-class logistics, engineering, coding, marketing, and operations team to keep the DoorDash app and website, our Merchant Portal and tablet, and our Dasher app running. We hire the best and expect the best from our team.

Credit card processing: With the exception of Online Ordering (where you only pay a credit card processing fee* with no additional commissions, monthly fees or per-order fees), all DoorDash offerings include credit card processing, so you have less to worry about when it comes to overhead expenses.
