In a country where tipping of 20% is the norm ... there is all of sudden a cap of 10% on what the delivery guy can make?

- albntomat0 6y agoIt's a cap on what the delivery company can charge the restaurant, not including what they charge the person doing the actual order.
- aroch 6y agoThat's not what this is...? It's a cap on the commissions UberEats/Doordash/whatever can charge on an order. To, hopefully, prevent the commission structure from causing places to lose money on orders ($10 order with 20% Doordash; costs the restaurant $8.50; Doordash charges $2 commission; restaurant loses $.50 on the order)
- yangminded 6y agoIt caps the fee that the delivery service can take. You can still tip the delivery person as much as you like.
- ceejayoz 6y agoIt's not even that. They can still put a $500 delivery fee on the bill, if they want. They just can't hide it in the food costs anymore, and take it out of the restaurant's cut.
- fipar 6y agoDo you believe that the full delivery app fee goes to the delivery worker?
- chvid 6y agoWho is the delivery worker? Is it the guy on the scooter? The app developer in the office? The marketing guy brought your attention to the take-away place and caused you to make the order? Since all these services are operating at the loss, the "delivery worker" might actually get more than the full fee.
- fipar 6y agoI think 'delivery worker' is a clear term that identifies the worker that brings the food to someone's door. It's certainly the term that identifies, of all the people on your list, the one in the most fragile position. But in any case, my point is that the cap is not on how much that person can make, but on how much these companies can charge.
