Can I use someone else’s Dasher Account?

Can I use someone else’s Dasher Account? If you have been wondering about this query then you are the right place.

Yes! You can use someone else’s Dasher Account as long as you have a Dasher Account of your own. The reason you need to have a valid Dasher Account of your own is because DoorDash only allows dashers who passed their background check do the deliveries.

So yeah, DoorDash allows their dashers to subcontract the work to only those personals who have passed the DoorDash background check.

You can use someone else’s Dasher Account in cases when that certain someone is not able to complete the deliveries by himself/herself. You can help your friend by driving for them or by dropping off deliveries.

What happens if you use Someone else’s Dasher Account without having a Dasher Account of your own?

If you use someone else’s DoorDash Account without having a Dasher account of your own, then DoorDash might suspend or even deactivate the account of your friend or family upon finding out.

So it is always recommended to dash for others only after you have passed the Doordash background check and are a verified Dasher on their platform.

If you don’t have a Dasher Account yet and are just trying to help out a friend to complete his deliveries then you can simply sign up for a Dasher. The sign up process is smooth and easy. And if you are a normal citizen who knows how to drive then you have already qualified half way to become a dasher.

Requirements to be a Dasher

These are the specific requirements that a Dasher needs to qualify:

• You must be atleast 18 years old. So individuals below 18 are automatically disqualified for dashing
• You must have a working smartphone with a valid number. Both Android and iOS devices can be used.
• Well this goes without saying, you must possess a valid Drivers License.
• You must have your driving record checked. During the driving record check they will look over how many speeding tickets you have accumulated, any damages on the vehicle, and past accidents that you suffered. The main purpose of having your driving record checked is to verify that you are a responsible driver.
• You must have a right insurance along with your name on the Policy
• You must hand over your Social Security Number to the DoorDash Survey Team. They need it to perform a thorough background check on you. Zero sexual offenses, No vandalism, no stealing, Zero felonies and No Violent Crimes Committed. If you pass all of these then you pass your background check on DoorDash.
• Lastly, or face to face or Online Orientation before you are approved as a Dasher.

Can I be a Dasher by walking?

Yes you can be a Dasher even if your only mode of Transportation is walking but you still need a vehicle to get the position of a DoorDash driver during their Sign Up process.

You must register as a dasher with a vehicle when you first sign up.  After that, you can DoorDash while walking depending on the city. Instead of walking, we’d suggest using a Segway or some other brand of bicycle.

Can Someone else use by Dasher Account?

You have the freedom to select the delivery method since you are an independent contractor. It is entirely up to you whether to handle the delivery service yourself or assign the work to a staff member or independent contractor. You can let someone else drive for you or help you deliver packages, but they must also have a working Dasher account.
