If you’re a delivery driver, you’ve probably asked yourself this at some point: should I run multiple apps at the same time? Short answer — yes. Drivers who multi-app earn 30-50% more than those sticking to a single platform. But the platforms don’t all pay equally, so it matters which ones you pick.

DoorDash averages $15-$20/hour. Uber Eats comes in at $14-$22/hour and tends to pull better tips. GrubHub consistently tops the charts for tips per delivery. The play is simple: run 2-3 apps simultaneously, and don’t accept anything under $1.50/mile. Drivers who actually track their numbers across platforms walk away with more at the end of the week.
