DoorDash, Grubhub and Uber Eats may be convenient, but whether they’re a winning proposition for anybody can swing on a few dollars.
The apps aren’t always transparent about who receives what share of the bill paid by customers. So The Washington Post conducted an experiment, placing identical orders on each app and then gathering receipts from all parties to see how each fared.
As tips can vary customer-to-customer — from the size of the tip, to giving a percentage versus a flat dollar amount — The Post initially removed them to better compare the cost of the transactions. When added in later, they significantly impact driver pay.
