Uber Eats is not a profitable business. Here's the math. ...and how Uber has the cake and eats it too. (Forbes)

11 percent of restaurant orders will be delivery...soon. UberEats anyone?

Uber Eats is a disaster in terms of the driver app and receiving orders. I spoke to customer service numerous times to inform them what needs to be changed for me to continue with Uber. Uber can care less. The customer service is horrible. The app is trash. I can drive for 45 minutes without receiving one trip. Gas is high right now making this option useless. I have lost money with Uber Eats. Doordash is by far the best! I will summarize a recent experience with both Uber Eats and Doordash. I completed 10 trips with Uber making a total of $80. These orders were far and few in between causing me to lose gas. Realistically I made $70. I completed 9 trips with Doordash in 3 hours making $185. I used $5 in gas. That should help people decide. Uber should have listened to me because I have a big mouth. I communicate to drivers all the time to ditch uber.
Yeah, I have no idea how the economics work. I see the app recommending that I order Taco Bell with no minimum purchases. How does this work out financially for anyone involved?
Where are you located? While I agree that Uber sucks, sometimes I think which app is best depends on your location.
My experience is only Uber Eats vs Doordash, and Doordash wins hands down in my market.
I'm on the consumer side, outside of Boston and I love doordash. Where are you located?
Newport, RI. Uber Eats only partner in my area is McDonalds...lol. Doordash just started servicing my area May 9 and a significant number of restaurants have jumped on board.
haha, that is just sad for Uber Eats there!
