    Y’know, I’ve never known anyone who’d use that because credit cards exist. Is it a bad credit thing? Cause even my bad credit homies have credit cards (with terrible API).

      Not having enough cash to eat food until your next payday is dystopian no matter how it’s done. I think this is more to hide the fact that Door Dash is charging way too much for their service. I’ve never used it but I’ve had friends quit using the app because of the realization that they’re paying $50 for McDonalds. Turning the checkout price into $12.50, that you’ll be paying four times over, reduces the sticker shock and avoids people getting a reality check.
