“In order to better balance the impact of these new costs, we’re moving the option to tip in the DoorDash app to after checkout.”
New York now makes DoorDash pay delivery workers at least $29.93 per hour of active time. DoorDash calls the rule “ill-conceived” and “extreme,” then hides the tip prompt until after checkout. Customers will see the higher fees first and a tip prompt only after they pay. DoorDash found a way to make its own fee hike come out of the Dashers’ tips.
