DoorDash Drivers Offered Relief From Pricey Fuel
SECAUCUS, NJ (DTN) – Delivery company DoorDash announced Monday (3/23) that it has launched a month-long program to offset the soaring price of fuel for its U.S. delivery drivers.
Running through April 26, the initiative offers 10% cash back on gas purchases and weekly payments of up to $15 for high-mileage drivers, Door Dash said.
Eligible participants can save between $1.40 and $1.90 gallon by combining the cash-back rewards with mileage-based subsidies. The program specifically targets those driving over 125 miles weekly to mitigate the impact of recent double-digit volatility in refined fuel markets.
Breakdown for the relief is as follows:
| Weekly Relief Payment | Estimated savings per gallon* |
| At 125 miles, earn $5 | $1.00/gal |
| At 200 miles, earn $10 | $1.25/gal |
| At 250 miles, earn $15 | $1.50/gal |
