Saving at DoorDash
DoorDash Savings Guide
DoorDash offers several ways to save on restaurant, grocery, retail, and convenience orders. Available offers, fees, eligibility requirements, and minimum subtotals can vary by location and order.
Check the Promotions Section
Enter your delivery address to view offers available near you. DoorDash lists promotions from restaurants, grocery stores, and other local merchants, with new offers appearing regularly.
- Review available promotions before placing an order.
- Check the offer details for eligible items, stores, order minimums, and expiration dates.
- Confirm that the promotion is applied before completing checkout.
Look for $0 Delivery Fee Offers
Some eligible orders include a $0 delivery fee. DoorDash also advertises a $0 delivery fee on a new customer’s first order when the offer is available and applicable.
- Check the store page and checkout screen for delivery-fee savings.
- Review any required order minimum or eligibility condition.
- Remember that other fees may still apply.
Consider DashPass
DashPass is a subscription service that can provide $0 delivery fees on eligible orders and reduced service fees. DoorDash states that eligible orders generally require a minimum subtotal, and terms can vary by area and order type.
- Compare the subscription cost with how often you order.
- Look for stores marked as eligible for DashPass benefits.
- Review the order minimum and other fees before checkout.
Shop Grocery and Retail Deals
DoorDash features savings on groceries, household products, personal care items, snacks, beverages, and other retail categories. Deal pages may include reduced prices, percentage discounts, multi-buy offers, store-membership pricing, or spend-and-save promotions.
- Browse the Deals section by category.
- Compare the displayed deal price with the regular price.
- Check whether a store membership or minimum purchase is required.
- Review expiration details and item availability before ordering.
Compare Delivery and Pickup
When available, compare delivery and pickup options for the same merchant. Pickup may offer different fees or pricing, while delivery may be more convenient depending on your order and location.
Build Orders Around Minimums
Some delivery-fee benefits and promotions require a minimum subtotal. If you already need additional items, adding eligible products to reach the minimum may help you qualify for the displayed offer. Always compare the final total before placing the order.
Review the Final Checkout Total
The checkout screen shows the order subtotal, discounts, delivery fee, service fee, taxes, and other applicable charges. Confirm that every expected promotion or membership benefit has been applied before submitting payment.
- Verify the promotion or discount line.
- Check delivery and service fees.
- Review taxes and the final total.
- Make sure the selected items and quantities are correct.
Use Available Store Membership Pricing
Some grocery and retail listings display lower prices for customers with a participating store membership. Where applicable, check the product listing to see whether membership pricing is available and whether additional requirements apply.
Watch for Local Availability
DoorDash offers are based on factors such as delivery address, merchant participation, item availability, order size, and account eligibility. Savings shown for one store or location may not be available elsewhere.
