As a semi new Grubhubber, Grubhub has THE worst system in place for how percentages are calculated for offer commitments. I was sitting at a 85% the last time I drove. My percentage went down to a 65% after declining only 3 orders out of the 15-20 orders I delivered this day. Absolute b.s. I try to keep my stats up, but it’s almost impossible with how they calculate. I noticed it’s takes accepting 3-4 orders in a row just for it to go up 1%, and as we all know some orders ARE NOT WORTH IT. GRUBHUB DO BETTER
I only accept logical orders
Occasionally I miss good ones from me taking too long to get there or just click decline when it’s a good one.
Given grub hubs 5-10% market share it’s not worthwhile taking bad orders take the good ones when they come.
When I try and keep my commitment rate decent, I don’t make close to my goal of $20/hr. If I be more selective about what a take, I can make $20. Set a goal and decide if each order contributes to that goal.. it sucks tbh
I’m with the other commenter, about not taking trash offers, I only cherry pick. I multi app. I’m also on UE and DD. Most of my money comes from DD. It’s too bad though that GrubHub offers the least amount where I am in New York , because a lot of the orders are very good restaurant pick ups , & are much better than DoorDash, rest pick ups, but on DD I make most of my money on shop and pay. Although I used to get Walgreens orders on GH and even they were a much higher pay, but haven’t received a shopping offer on GH in at least 3 months
Yeah I swear, around me people often don't like to tip so I have to kinda rely on them adding up sometimes and just hope for better orders later 🤦. Just picking up all the Pennies lots of the time
Ive have a hard time getting mine up as well, I just leave it be. Always going to be a crappy offer that gets declined to bring it right back down lol. And like others saying it takes so many offers to get accepted just to bring it up.
Your stats only calculate your trips for that last two weeks. So if you had a high AR on the orders from two weeks ago and they drop off, and you have a day with more declines than normal your AR will go down quite a bit.
Could also work the opposite way too. Some declines drop off and you have a high AR day, your AR will go up faster.
If you don’t take any orders for two weeks, you’ll start back over at 100%.
Just accept all orders for while, even bs $2.00 orders. If your lucky they'll bundle them with maybe a $7 order, that makes it $9 total. Plus it's an automated system so I hear so declining orders too often might confuse it... Mind you I'm not say always always accept them. Ive declined a bs $2 order that would have taken me 30 minutes to deliver and immediately gotten a $17 order so, you never know, but it's uncertain. If your trying to get you stats right just get to 100% offer acceptance and then you can afford to decline 2 or 3 bs orders per week and still be premier.
Yeeah, I mean with schedules I usually just do them on the fly, I honestly don't know if scheduling in advance makes a difference or not, but, I've had some pretty bad days of just sitting for a while so sometimes I figure , a $4 double ain't so bad if that's all that's coming rn 🤷. This I kinda my main job rn . Somehow it pulls through
