Tipping ‘nudges’ are now popping up on DoorDash. If you don’t leave a gratuity, you’ll hear about it.::DoorDash is the latest delivery service to nudge customers who don’t tip. It shows how intrusive tip requests are, and how important tips are to gig workers.
I’ve never once even considered it. I absolutely do not get this concept.
I used it during the pandemic. I also had the Chase card that gave you free DashPass for a year and it was fantastic. I made a couple orders once that promo was done and quickly determined that it was no longer worth it.
Shame that it doesn’t look like the financials involved could ever really work except in niche situations. It was nice having food delivered to my doorstep.
It’s born from the same idea that people will pass out Halloween candy with blades in it. Which is a thing that is everyone “knows” about but has never actually been reported to happen.
