FAQ
Q: Is this a permanent change to the Pro Shopper program?
A: No — this is a pilot we’re testing in select geographies to improve the Pro Shopper experience. We’ll use what we learn to continue improving the program over time.
Q: When does this change go into effect?
A: This pilot will begin rolling out in early May 2026. We’ll notify you when it officially goes live in your area.
Q: Can I turn Shop and deliver only mode on and off?
A: Yes — once the pilot begins, you can turn it on or off anytime in the Preferences tab in your Dasher app (if you are a Pro Shopper). When it’s on, you’ll receive only Shop and deliver orders.
Q: What happens if my Shopping Acceptance rate falls below 50%?
A: If your Shopping Acceptance rate is below 50%, you will lose Pro Shopper status. But don’t worry — your status is based on your most recent 40 Shop & Deliver orders on a rolling basis. Keep shopping to reach 50% and earn it back.
Q: What happens if I lose Pro Shopper status while using Shop & Deliver–only mode?
A: If you lose Pro Shopper status, Shop and Deliver–only mode will automatically be turned off. If you regain Pro Shopper status in the future, you can turn Shop and Deliver–only mode back on in your Preferences.
Q: Do batched offers count toward my Shopping Acceptance Rate?
A: Yes. Any offer that includes a Shop and Deliver order will count toward your Shopping Acceptance Rate. For example, if you receive a batched offer with:
one restaurant order, and
one Shop and Deliver order
That offer will still count toward your Shopping Acceptance Rate.
