Menuthere vs DoorDash Online Ordering
DoorDash Online Ordering (formerly DoorDash Storefront) lets restaurants that already sell on the DoorDash Marketplace take pickup and delivery orders from their own website, Google profile and social media, with deliveries made by DoorDash's Dashers and orders sent to a DoorDash tablet, a connected POS, email or phone. It is part of DoorDash Commerce Platform and has local pages for the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The ordering link has no monthly fee and 0% commission (the restaurant pays a payment processing fee per order and customers pay delivery fees); in the US the Boost ($99 a month) and Pro ($249 a month) packages add a branded website, email and text marketing, loyalty and a branded app.
