Gen Z Dashers – those ages 18 to 25 years old – recognize the value of earning on their own schedule, when and where they want.

Gen Z Dashers Value the Flexibility and Reliability of Dashing on Their Own Schedule 

Dashing has always provided a reliable source of supplemental earnings for people no matter their financial goals or stage in life. Recently, more people are turning to secondary sources of income to make ends meet and improve their quality of life, especially as pay in some sectors has not kept up with inflation and uncertain economic conditions continue.

Six months ago, we announced that DoorDash would be facilitating the delivery of beer, wine, and spirits via the DoorDash Marketplace. Today, customers across 22 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and markets around the world can responsibly order alcohol through our platform. We recognize customers are seeking safe ways to order alcohol and appreciate that policymakers in a number of states have shifted regulations to enable alcohol takeout and delivery. By facilitating the delivery of beer, wine, and spirits, DoorDash can help merchants grow their business, enable customers to purchase alcohol safely from home, and provide Dashers with additional earning opportunities. We’re eager to show the impact this new service can have on our community.
