Dasher earnings are flexible — and your banking should be, too.

Enter DoorDash Crimson: a personal banking account that includes the DoorDash Crimson Visa® Debit Card, made for whenever or wherever Dashers choose to earn.

DoorDash Crimson delivers a flexible, secure bank account designed for on-the-go earners. Whether you’re dashing daily or balancing multiple income streams, DoorDash Crimson helps you get paid fast, plan smart, and keep more of what you earn.

Here's a closer look at how DoorDash Crimson works, its perks, and how it can support your journey to financial freedom. 

What are the benefits of a DoorDash Crimson account?

DoorDash Crimson is banking that adapts to your schedule. This means you can enjoy:

  • Instant access to earnings: With DoorDash Instant Pay**, Dashers can access their money right after every dash. No waiting, no fees.

  • Direct deposit: Your own account and routing number make it easy to set up direct deposit from any other job, not just dashing. You can receive paychecks up to two days early†, giving you faster access to your money.

  • Pay your bills: Available to select DoorDash Crimson Dashers, get 7- and 3-day reminders based on your real bill history, so nothing sneaks up on you. Or, set up effortless recurring payments tracked in-app. No matter your everyday lifestyle, your bills won’t catch you off guard.

  • Everyday use: Use your DoorDash Crimson Card for bills, subscriptions, and daily spending. And with the virtual card, you can easily add it to your digital wallet for contactless payments on-the-go with just a tap.

  • Instant transfers††: Transfer funds to your other bank accounts or debit cards in seconds, helping you stay in control if life throws something unexpected your way.

  • One hub for your money: Manage your earnings — whether that’s from Dashing or other side-gigs — all within the DoorDash Dasher app, without worrying about overdraft fees or minimum balance requirements. 

  • Trusted Protection: DoorDash Crimson funds are FDIC-insured through Starion Bank. FDIC insurance limitations apply. Visit FDIC.gov and refer to the DoorDash Crimson Deposit Account Agreement for more details.

The best part? There's no fee to apply‡ and a credit check is not required.

What is the DoorDash Crimson Card?

When you sign up for a DoorDash Crimson account, you automatically receive a DoorDash Crimson Card. Dashers earn cash back and partner perks when they use the card. After each dash, earnings are deposited into your Crimson account, which you manage in the DoorDash Dasher app. You can use the virtual card right away or satisfy any requirements set out within the Mobile App to receive a physical card.

And because it’s a debit card, DoorDash Crimson can serve as your primary card anywhere Visa debit cards are accepted.

DoorDash Crimson offers perks, partnerships, and cash back opportunities, including:

  • 10% cash back on gas and 2% cash back on EV charging purchases§ when you pay with your DoorDash Crimson Card.

  • Exclusive partner perks: There’s more than enough to take advantage of when it comes to everyday savings. With Everlance, Jiffy Lube, Valvoline, and more, earn and claim cash back easily.

  • Extensive ATM network: Enjoy 8 free in-network ATM withdrawals per calendar month at MoneyPass ATMs. A $2.50 fee will apply to each withdrawal in a calendar month after that. Plus, the built-in ATM Finder in the DoorDash Dasher app helps you quickly locate the closest option.

"With the DoorDash Crimson program I have total control…the gas savings are huge, and I plan to use the card for my daily expenses."
