Merchant Order Remade Policy

Under the Merchant Order Remade Policy, merchants can request a refund for a remade delivery order when a Dasher arrives significantly later than expected and the food can no longer be sold. The policy applies only to delays outside the merchant's control. It doesn't cover non-perishable items or standard delivery delays.

What is the Merchant Order Remade Policy?

The Merchant Order Remade Policy allows merchants to request a refund after remaking a delivery order due to a significantly late Dasher arrival. To qualify, the order must meet all eligibility requirements.

Who is eligible for refunds?

Merchants are eligible for refund when all of the following conditions are met:

  • The original delivery was completed within the past seven days

  • The order was confirmed in the Merchant Portal, Business Manager App, or DoorDash Tablet

  • The Dasher arrived at the store more than 20 minutes after the estimated order ready time

  • The order was placed for delivery, not pickup

  • The order contained perishable items only (not bottled or canned items, or alcoholic beverages)

If any of these conditions aren't met, the remade order is not eligible for a refund.
