New York Enacts Upfront Delivery Tipping Requirement

New York's law requiring DoorDash and Uber Eats to request tips at checkout, with a 10% suggested minimum, goes into effect Monday. A federal judge, George Daniels, denied a temporary injunction request by DoorDash and Uber, letting the mandate proceed while litigation continues. The city says the change aims to boost couriers' pay after a report found DoorDash and Uber Eats tips averaged $0.76 versus $2.17, costing couriers $550 million.
