How you get paid

What workers rate the app

The rating of the app workers use — never the customer app. Each store is its own witness; we show both and never average them. The count is what makes a score mean something. Click a listing to see the number as it stands today.

Where this came from
Where we got this
Dasher sign-up flow

Every claim on this card, traced — 12 claims:

Cost picture read from the company's own page
money-campaign (owner arc 2026-08-25): EVIDENCED ABSENCE — we read their landing page plus the pricing/fees/FAQ/terms subtrees on 2026-08-25 and found no upfront-cost language. Not a guarantee of free; an absence is only as strong as the search that looked for it, and this records the search.
How you get in read from the company's own page
Record evidence_source 'Dasher sign-up flow', reviewed in the 2026-08-11 door-provenance audit and classified as the provider's own property
How you get paid read from the company's own page
debt-paydown (owner arc 2026-08-26): CONTRADICTION FOUND AND CORRECTED: the inherited claim said 'Per delivery'; their own Dasher page, fetched 2026-08-26, says 'Pay is based on the minimum guaranteed hourly rate for the time spent actively on a delivery.'
Local operating status derived from our own coverage research, not from the company's words
mktcle-reclass (owner ruling 2026-08-26): STRUCTURALLY UNSOURCEABLE from provider property — companies do not state their metro lists, so no re-fetch can ever pay this claim. Reclassified out of the owed pile into the declared class: derived from our own coverage research, not from the company's words.
Sign-up link read from the company's own page
Record evidence_source 'Dasher sign-up flow', reviewed in the 2026-08-11 door-provenance audit and classified as the provider's own property
Taking new people read from the company's own page
debt-paydown (owner arc 2026-08-26): their own page, fetched this arc, carries an open application flow — the open door is the source's own word for taking people
Vehicle class read from the company's own page
requirements-campaign pass A (owner arc 2026-08-25): encoded from this record's own eligibility_requirements — 'Any vehicle'. The tier restates the recorded requirement on the filter's ladder; the prose stays the authority and renders unchanged.
Vehicle needed read from the company's own page
vehicle-model-phase2 (owner arc 2026-08-25): their own Dasher signup requirements, fetched 2026-08-25: 'Vehicle — Any car, scooter, or bicycle (in select cities)', with bike-only dashing needing only 'Driver's license or other form of ID'
What it is read from the company's own page
debt-tranche2 (owner arc 2026-08-26): identity restated on restaurant delivery signup surfaces on their own Dasher pages (fetched 2026-08-26)
What workers rate the app reported by someone else — not the company's words
Apple App Store listing for "DoorDash - Dasher" and Google Play listing for "DoorDash - Dasher" — the store is the witness, not the company; checked 2026-09-02
What you need read from the company's own page
debt-tranche2 (owner arc 2026-08-26): their own pages, fetched 2026-08-26: 'all you need is a smartphone and a mode of transportation: a car, bike, scooter, or motorcycle' + background check via SSN; 'Dashers in California must be at least 21 years old'
Worker costs read from the company's own page
debt-paydown (owner arc 2026-08-26): DROPPED TO HONEST ABSENCE: the inherited value was an unproven promise; the 2026-08-25 search of their landing page plus the pricing/fees/FAQ/terms subtrees found no fee statement, and the record now carries the evidenced absence instead
