Do you want to work as a delivery driver but can’t because of your age or driving record? Or maybe you just don’t have the time to commit to a second job. If so, becoming a restaurant partner with DoorDash is perfect for you! Working as a restaurant partner with DoorDash has its perks: You get to make money while staying home, and you don’t need to be an experienced driver to do it.
In this blog post, we will be teaching you everything there is about being a partner with DoorDash if you are under the age of 25 or simply not willing to risk your car on the road during peak hours.
Step by step: How to change your restaurant location on DoorDash
If your restaurant is on DoorDash, the easiest way to change the location of your restaurant is by creating a new DoorDash account. Once you have a new account, log in and click “My Account” in the top right corner.
Underneath “Location” you will see three options for changing the location of your restaurant: “Change Location”, “Move to this Location” and “Remove from this Location”. The important thing to remember here is that if you are going to remove your restaurant from DoorDash, you must first remove it from all other platforms such as GrubHub. You can then re-add your restaurant to DoorDash. If you are adding a new location, make sure to enter the correct address information.
What is DoorDash and How Does it Work?
DoorDash is a food delivery service. As a restaurant partner, you get to decide when you want to partner with DoorDash. Once you are partnered with DoorDash, DoorDash will set up a restaurant location page. DoorDash will then allow customers to search for food delivery services in their area.
Once a customer selects your restaurant, they will see a list of menu items. The customer can then choose their desired food item and pay for the order right away. The customer will also be given an estimated time of arrival (ETA). An average ETA is 30 minutes; however, if you are a restaurant partner, the ETA will be longer. Restaurant partners are responsible for picking up the food from the restaurant, then heading over to the customer’s location and delivering the food to them. If you want to make extra cash, then partnering with DoorDash is the perfect solution for you.
Requirements to Become a Partner With DoorDash
To become a partner with DoorDash, you will need to meet a few requirements first. DoorDash requires that you are at least 18 years old or older. You will also need to be 21 years old or older if you are driving in the state of California. You will also need to have a clean driving record. If you have a poor driving record, you may be denied the opportunity to become a partner with DoorDash. You will also need a smartphone in order to sign up to become a partner with DoorDash.
The Catch
As we have mentioned, being a restaurant partner with DoorDash has many benefits. You get to make money while staying home, and you don’t need to be an experienced driver to do it. The only downside to being a DoorDash partner is the ETA length. You will be expected to deliver the food to the customer within 1 hour. DoorDash will send you a notification letting you know that a customer has placed an order.
Once you have received the order, you will need to pick up the food as soon as possible and head over to the customer’s location and deliver the food to them. The only thing you need to keep in mind while being a restaurant partner with DoorDash is that you will be expected to deliver the food within 60 minutes.
If you don’t deliver within the 60-minute time-frame, you can expect to be penalized. You will want to avoid incurring penalties at all costs because penalties can end up ruining your chances of becoming a partner with DoorDash.
