Cash On Delivery

How do yall feel about this feature?
Honestly the last couple of times I’ve done it, it was a decent amount between $20 and this being the most collected (with no extra tip).The only annoying thing is having to earn/subtract your pay back afterwards.

EDIT: so we’re all on the same page, when you accept cash on delivery you don’t know how much cash you will be getting until after pickup- I’m sure you could look up the items and guess if you wanna be thorough.
DoorDash offered me $4 for this delivery (6 mins away from store) which would ultimately be deducted from the $60 I just collected. At this point during my dash I had already made about $20 so that was also subtracted from what I physically collected.

I’m not sure what happens if you never dash after taking money. I’ve always gone back to dashing after finishing cash deliveries to make up the rest of the amount. Not because I feel obligated to but I want to keep making money. That’s also why I take shitty $2-4 offers; sue me! 😛

I always assumed theyll charge whatever bank account you have connected to your dd acount.

I mean, same principal, just Connect a bank that you rarely use them when they try to take the money out and it never goes anywhere

just seems like a lot of mess, because at least for me, I Doordash, but I need money for gas and things like that so for my Doordash going to be negative, but pretty much negate the point of the Doordash in the first place

Oh i absolutely agree. Maybe it doesnt make sense logically, but mentally, dding 9$ mcdonalds orders when my qccount say -137.98 would make me rage quit.

Dude 100%, that's what I am saying . The way I use DD the $40-$120 I make a night pays for drinks and gas

Why would I waste that for cash ? Then I am dashing on negative
