DoorDash will offer its drivers guaranteed hourly pay on top of tips, providing its delivery workers another way to earn money, as part of a series of changes to its platform.

The delivery app’s main competitor, Uber Eats, already pays its workers for every pickup and delivery that is successfully completed, along with a per-mile pay rate. In some U.S. cities, Uber Eats deliverymen can also receive a per-minute rate.
