With on-demand delivery, DoorDash couriers are automatically dispatched to fulfill orders placed on your Square Online site with no up-front investment or commissions. Upon delivery of the order, DoorDash couriers are trained to verify the age of the recipient of the order. If no one of legal drinking age is on site to accept the order, it will be returned to your business. Couriers must be of legal drinking age to be assigned an alcohol order. Some jurisdictions have additional requirements for couriers, such as an alcohol safety course. Where those requirements are in place, DoorDash ensures only eligible Dashers who have completed those steps are assigned to alcohol delivery orders.
