Doordash payment methods

Credit cards, debit and prepaid

DoorDash accepts most major credit, debit and prepaid cards including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover gift cards. These general-purpose prepaid cards work like regular credit or debit cards at checkout. The key difference between store-specific cards and these payment gift cards is that Visa and Mastercard options can be used anywhere those networks are accepted, not only on DoorDash.

Gift cards

However, if you prefer using alternative payment methods like cryptocurrency, e-wallets, prepaid cards, or regional payment systems, the most convenient approach is purchasing a DoorDash gift card first.Our retailers allow you to buy DoorDash gift card options using these alternative methods, which you can then redeem on DoorDash. This workaround gives you access to the platform regardless of your preferred payment type, making gift cards the ultimate flexible solution for users who want more payment freedom.

DoorDash credits

DoorDash also offers its own payment solution called DoorDash Credits, which work similarly to gift cards but are earned through promotions or refunds. For qualifying customers, the platform provides financing options through Affirm for larger catering orders. Additionally, businesses can set up corporate accounts with invoicing capabilities for team meal programs.
