Reply to comment by tigris_kn in i deliver full time on all 3 apps, doordash, grubhub, & uber eats i can answer any questions you below by [deleted]

uber gives me the worst tips, but they 4x the base pay. so a 2 dollar tip looks like 6-7 dollars varying on the distance and whether i wanna pick it up or not lol.

doordash and gh has their base pay and tips down the middle. meaning if i pick up a 8 dollar order it's because maybe the base pay's 5 bucks because no one's picked it up yet, or the delivery's a further distance, or it's super busy (sunday) (friday) and the tip is likely 4 bucks.

overall the more you tip the faster you'll get your food there's no workaround because no one will pick it up unless it's worth the trip.

It tells you the tip before you pick up the food?

yes but doordash hides some of the tip until you complete the delivery they try to bait you into risking taking a shitty order

I sometimes tip after the delivery so is that bad? Should I add everything beforehand?

Seems so to incentive the pickup

it's better if you tip beforehand, so you'll get prioritized first.

you could always retract your tip if service isn't met. (uber only) and i'd do it, and give them a bad rating if i were you. there's too many bad delivery drivers that are greedy.
