Earn by time is $12.95 per hour in my city and it's mostly no tip orders in shady areas. I got tired of delivering McDonald's and Popeyes to the hood 7 times in a row.
This is exactly how it is where I'm at. It takes from 11am until 8pm to make $80.
@@alliejo3000 Are you multi-apping?
That's pretty amazing you can work 11 am to 8 pm. My shifts are usually 4 or 5 hours. UberEats has better offers and tips. I heard Spark is garbage and Grubhub is dead in my market. I've been trying to get on those two since October of last year.
You must live in Louisiana
đ
Whatâs wrong with the hood
I have noticed it all depends on the zone, and time of day. My husband does better in his zone (more residential), evening time going per offer. I work a different Zone (industrial, commercial) early morning breakfast/coffee rush, and do better on hourly, most of my orders have tips.
Earn by time is usually $13.75 hr in my zone, hubby said his is $12.50 hr.
$25 an hour, wow!!! That's awesome, I wish
I was pretty surprised on that hourly peak pay PLUS the increased base pay per hour as well. Pretty rare but I'll take it!
I primarily dash in a suburb of Wichita KS and our hourly pay is 10.50 or 11.50 an hour, though they donât consider the extra dollar as peak pay. It just depends on the day what theyâre offering. I have never seen peak pay on earn by time.
Lately, Iâve been working towards getting my gold and platinum rewards just to see if itâs worth it. Iâve been pleasantly surprised with EBT. Iâm making over $20 an hour which means Iâm still getting decent tips.
Idk that I could have a wild hour and make 30-40 an hour on EBT like you might on Pay per order, but it has been fairly consistent.
DoorDash sends me to the same Safeway so many times that I really know where the items are. My last shop & delivery was for sugar free cookies for the same customer I deliver to every week. I know it so well that I did the order in 1 minute according to the timer.
This heređ
Hy-Vee they know me everyone does lol
$14.50 per hour. Bloomington, IL. Very few peak pay times.
I'm CA, there is a law that requires DD to pay a minimum hourly for active time. In my area it is $18 and uber pays $2 over minimum wage which is $16.00 in CA right now. My market does not have an "earn by time" as a separate option. I usually get an extra bump each week because earn by order doesn't generally yield that great of results.
$13.25 here in suburban Detroit, but the zone just north of me (also suburban Detroit) is $17, but many more apartments.
The only thing I find bad about working for time is that you are forced to accept almost all orders and when it is by order you have the possibility of declining bad orders and accepting the one with the best payment and that gives you more control of the offers you want to accept, good video Mark
True that acceptance rate criteria is tricky. Thanks for watching!
- Mark
The only draw back at this point is that orders seem to be drying up. I will be out for hours and only get a handful of offers in my area. Can be tough to pick cherries when there is nothing on the tree.
I been doing EBT just to get my acceptance rate up. I dont really like it for the fact that they are always high miles, sometimes even takes you out of the zone...so many wasted miles back to zone. Also its super rare to get a tip and most of the time the no tippers have thr most demands....also get rated low stars for no reason...was 5.0 before starting EBT with over 1000 deliveries and now at 4.95. It just ticks me off the non tippers are getting the food delivered for low cost to them but high cost to us.
Iâve been only doing pay by order and havent been making as much as I want might try pay by time
In California, Prop 22 guarantees driver active time wage, regardless of acceptance rate. No restrictions for declining.
I've seen some big pay adjustments from Dashers on prop 22, how do you like it?
@@YourDriverMike yup, i donât know about big adjustment, but with tips, itâs not bad.
my market's standard hourly is $10.50... and in the year it's been live, I have never once seen peak pay.
Thanks for sharing, which market and submarket? I know our suburban submarkets pay less per active hour maybe $13 or so I'd have to check when I'm there again.
I did earn by time the other night and got $20 in tips over 5 orders. Iâve only dashed one day so far so itâs hard to say if I had a lucky day. Iâm also in Pittsburgh - Munhall.
It used to be $16 in my area (NW suburbs Chicago) Lately it has been $14,00-$14,50.
Hey!
Nice to meet a fellow burber lol
Where you DD at? I'm usually in the Lombard area đ€
At 11:00 when you talk about the $ / mile, I'm curious if the mileage you are using in the calculation is the sum of the mileage on each offer, or is it the total miles from a mileage tracker from the start of your dash to the end that would include driving in between orders (like returning back to an area). In my area it is rare to get another order near / soon after dropping off one, you almost always have to come all the way back to the power strip which doubles the miles from what the app shows on the offer.
I saw a video of yours years ago and you should realize by now you make waaay more than most dashers across the country. I tried following your suggestions early on and they dont work even when visiting cities with 150k people or the 10k people where I live..
Iâve found that earn by time is a lot less stress. I drive slower and donât mind when there is a wait. Also, it helps keep my acceptance rate up and the pay is very close. The only issue is I feel like I put on about 25% more miles on my car
Mike Help,,I have three areas.. one is Fox Chapel, the other is Freeport Rd., Harmarville, and the other one is North Hills McKnight Rd. area,,
OK, hereâs the question. I see that I can pick Fox Chapel area in my settings and then the only other one that I can pick is North Pittsburgh area which one is covering the Harmarville area off of the Halton Bridge. ?
I think shop and deliver orders are great depending on what stores you go to. They are also more consistently higher paying than regular deliveries. If you get used to shopping in certain stores it becomes really easy
If I did this job, I'd take pictures of the shelves and aisles and memorize the layout during my off time. Imagine how fast you'd be if you could go right to every item.
I did get better/faster the more I did, Dollar General is a tiny store with not a ton of stuff so I didn't mind those versus Target and Giant Eagle (grocery store).
@@YourDriverMike yeah, the size of the store definitely matters. But I think the real deal breaker is whether everything the customer wants is in stock and how quickly they respond. I will say there are times where Iâve gon to stores that Iâve memorized and items are out of stock but the customer either didnât add substitutes or just doesnât answer texts.
@@jeffw1267 it honestly really depends on the store, some of the stores doordash will actually have the correct aisle for the item on there which makes shopping pretty easy. But the more you do it the better you learn store layouts and what the quickest way to shop is
Harrisburg, Pa averages 10.25 per hour. I have platinum and earn per hour is 10.25 or 10.50 depending on when you dash
Here in Medford Oregon it's $15.50 per hour. I always dash by order. I decided to do a lunch by the time. I made just over $20 per hour. By order Im average between $16 and $25 per hour.
That's a pretty decent balance, how's the per mile pay on EBT?
Not as good to be honest, maybe $1.10 per mile. I average about $1.40-1.50per mile on per order. Population is about 140,000 in city and a few adjacent small cities we have. I drive a prius so I get 55 mpg plus get the 67 cents per mile write off. I never dashed when I myself lived in San Diego. So I'm sure per mile would be higher there as well as Pittsburgh. here.
Iâm trying to understand why everyone in the comment are putting this amount of wear and tear on their vehicles for chump change. Seems like it would be smarter to go to a temp agency and work random jobs and not wear out your car for hardly over minimum wage
It's $14.25 here - Fayetteville, NC.
Iâve been getting where Iâm the third person to pick up the order and I had to contact support to get half pay.
$13.25 in San Antonio and itâs rare to get peak pay in my market. When they do throw out peak pay itâs normally $1-$1.50
Thanks for sharing, still less frequent Peak Pay here (EBT/EPO) but at least it's still decent $2-$3 at times. Another reason why we want to multi-app, maybe nothing on DD but other apps could have bonus pay or better overall pay.
Yesterday was start of holiday weekend I wish I had watched this before going out yesterday bc Iâm thinking I needed by time for active hourly pay vs per offer on busy weekends plus the rain and delays at restaurants đą I decided to not go out this morning bc estimated make 50-60 over 4 hours not knowing what I was going deliver knowing it was 20-30 worth gas. So Iâm doing research so Iâm ready rest holiday week with a plan for travel and restaurants delays. Per pay was 7-8 hr which less than min wage job. I was curious how same runs would compared per time bc of travel weather and restaurants delays plus peak pay promo. One offer only 4.80 I declined some DD and Uber eats because Iâd drop off location took me away from my preferred area or gas station
Yea I found less per offer than by time bc long waits and long spread out difference in a diff market but I do like higher tips earn per offer but want compare it by earn by time and activity hr pay
In my area earned by time isn't always available if they have too many dashers doing that
I have see it locked out once or twice here in the Downtown submarket. I'm not checking it 24/7 or anything though, could be more. How often is it locked out for you?
No dasher preferences in my market. I really hope when it does arrive I can exclude the military base.
12.75 is what we get I always do per order also I do shopping orders, amazing pay
What is a good pay by offer average hour pay. In my city I make like 18 on a good hour. Trying to see if thatâs good or not ?
Next wave of rewards coming. Just got email for Albuquerque coming in 2 weeks
so what happens when u dont get the option when u schedule ?
I'm a new dasher. My on time/early rate is 81% and most of my orders have been delivered early. Only 1 was late and that was burger kings fault. So why is my rate 81%???
I think they come out equal over the longer run.
All by design. I think the endgame for all the apps is $15/hr BEFORE expenses. Drivers can just work more hours if they are not making enough.
Pretty close, even my numbers over 2 months supported that. Still a tiny sample size, just sharing.
12.50 normally i've seen up to 18.50. tips? thats up to the customer.. so.. outside of anyone's control except them.. i've been dashing a lot since feb and the businesses are more and more falling behind and making me wait for my orders.. in that circumstance... earn by time winds IMO.. edit> I'm in the habit of calling support about 'already picked up' support made me hang around for nearly 30 minutes.. i eventually got paid. then i got the re-issue of that order for that customer as i was driving away. weird.. i hope this isn't the new normal.
Is earn by time in every city now? I donât see it on my tabs
Peak pay is rare. When it does appear itâs $1
I went from making about 60 dollars in a shift to 85 in a shift when I switched to earn by time.
Nice to see the increase! How long are your shifts typically?
@@YourDriverMike 4 and a half hours so itâs about 19 dollars an hour. The earn by time option in my area is 15 dollars an hour.
But it's less peak pay offers and majority of time earn by time is not even active to use. Or they do $14.25 in Erie.
I'm in Pennsylvania Gettysburg Hanover area and we only get $13.25 on earn by time. I tried this once and I ended up putting much more miles on my car spent more in gas money and Harley got any tips. I did not like it at all. Did not make the money that I normally make.
Similar to what I saw. Yes more per hour but less per mile (more driving) on EBT with less frequent and smaller tips. Makes me think exactly like Amazon Flex, guaranteed pay but no control over route/mileage and no tips on Flex warehouse runs.
$12.50 per hour in middle Missouri.
Thanks for sharing
$20/hr is pretty impressive!
I think $20/hr is a decent earnings compromise, I want $25/hr+ but $20/hr would be a nice settling point. Granted I want that over Dash time not Active time.
14 hourly for my area and minimum is 15.
Itâs 13.75 out here thatâs crazy I wish we had 25 hourly
Absolutely low here for the hourly, itâs $12.50. Pretty trash, so I strictly stick to earn by order because I donât even care to try it at that rate honestly
In my area it's $13 I only do it to raise my acceptance offer because I'm my area you don't get good offers
Iâve never done earn by time. I think my acceptance rate is too low. Iâve never been offered earn by time in my market
Itâs actually a good way to get your acceptance rate up and I have noticed that DoorDash will send you more orders if youâre on the pay by hour
$25 an hour is insane. $11.25 here right now, but most times it's like $10.25 per hour. Its just not worth it here. Your lucky if you get any peak pay at all and its usually just a dollar..
$25.25 was insane, highest I've seen so far on EBT. Rare though
$14.75/hr in VA
My market is at 12/hr earn by time and I never see peak pay
I have done hourly for example 15/hr but while dashing I only earn 10 đą i don't get it
Iâve been platinum for a few days now, definitely like it a lot. Waiting on my catering bag to show up so I can reap all the benefits a see how much of a difference it makes. Anyone else think the catering/large order thing pays off? Curious
I can make 1300 consistently no matter what a week on earn by time
In milwaukee is 13 hour
Thank you!
$15.50 here no peak pay on EBT or EBO
Thanks for sharing, keep up those gains! đȘđ»
$15.25 and never have peak pay unless there's a storm.
Thanks for sharing
Not much to guide. Accept or decline.
My market is $15.50
Thanks!
I hate going to Aldiâs
I initially did but once I figured out the layout it's extremely minimal which makes finding products much faster
It's garbage here. It's $14.50 here in Ohio.
Earn by time is where they get all of the bad no tip orders done.
The funny word here is âearnâ. There is no more earning money with DD itâs total trash for the drivers
Any gig apps that are worth it in your market? Or are other side hustles more attractive? (FBA/drop shipping, online freelancing, social media, etc)
@@YourDriverMike I went from $1500 a week in 2022.. to currently $500 a week .. a better way of saying it is $32 a hour and now itâs about $12 a hour, the food orders are all upside down high miles or under $5.. Instacart is bad too currently I make 40% of the 2022 income compared to today. I am looking at roadie and deliver that but I donât expect much.. I am now looking for a W2 job
Peak pay, what's that???? We rarely have peak pay
Do you have any surge on Uber Eats? Curious đ€
@@YourDriverMike I rarely do UE. But when I have I didn't have any surge.
10 an hour
Thanks for sharing
13.75 an hour Corpus Christi Texas
My market is usually $11.25-$12.50. I actually love EBT. I can make $20-$30 hr. When I do per offer, I get mostly junk even as a platinum with 85%. Money is money. Why does it matter if it comes from tip or DD? The orders I get, 93% I would normally take anyway, so itâs like a built in bonus. Ex. I had an order that wouldâve only been $10.00 per offer, but EBT was $16.54. I donât like that I have to maintain 70% daily. I had to do a 180 day on my perspective.
