All U.S. Dashers can cash out instantly after every dash, earn 2% cash back on every gas purchase, and tap into a nationwide network of 20,000+ no-fee ATMs through the DasherDirect Business Prepaid Visa Card, a no-fee debit card that's free for U.S. Dashers.
Here at DoorDash, we’re constantly working to build an experience where Dashers can easily access flexible and independent earning opportunities. We know that the most effective way to make positive change is to listen to Dashers and learn what they need from us to be successful. In the last year or so, we’ve asked Dashers about the types of financial services they’d like to see. What we heard loud and clear was this: Dashers want faster and more flexible access to their earnings, and they want cash back on key business expenses, especially on gas.
With those needs top of mind, we’ve built DasherDirect, a full financial platform for Dashers with a Business Prepaid Visa Card and mobile banking app, powered by Payfare.
As a Dasher, you can:
Get paid instantly at the end of every dash for no fee
With DasherDirect, the earnings from your deliveries or tasks are deposited instantly at the end of every dash —for no fee— so you can access your cash when you need it.
Enjoy money on your own terms
Use the DasherDirect app for secure banking on the go, including checking your balance, transferring funds for free with no minimums, and enjoying free withdrawals in more than 20,000 ATMs nationwide.
Get 2% back on gas
With DasherDirect, you unlock 2% cash back on all gas purchases, anytime, anywhere, so you can get more out of every mile
Through the DasherDirect app, Dashers can check their account balance, pay bills, transfer money, and set savings goals — all without worrying about overdraft fees or minimum balance requirements.
Today, DasherDirect gives Dashers cash instantly after every dash and 2% cash back on fuel at any gas station, anywhere.
Dashers can sign up for their own DasherDirect Business Prepaid Visa Card within minutes and with no credit check required.
“This is one of the best ideas DoorDash has had. The biggest thing I like is that there’s no fee for direct deposits, and with the DasherDirect program I have total control ... the gas savings are huge, and I plan to use the card for my daily expenses.”
Roland P., Dasher
