        I rotate delivery apps so they constantly send me coupons. The coupon doesn’t actually save any money over the restaurant cost but basically cancels out the delivery fee.

        They decided a long time ago people will refuse to do the math.

      But the companies running these softwares now make a huge profit, while the restaurants and delivery drivers earn less. So it’s better this way for their billionaire investors

        I still don’t understand how paying a third party the delivery fee plus their management costs and profit margin is cheaper than hiring a teenager. It sucks though :/

        Like you said, worse every person involved except for the door dash executives

          Because a lot of places probably don’t do enough delivery volume to justify staffing a driver every night, and the apps themselves are pretty powerful marketing tools.

          Because the food delivery apps pay their drivers that little.
