For those who frequently use [DoorDash](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dashpass-membership) and are looking to avoid delivery fees, DoorDash's '[DashPass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doordash-and-lyft)' has been introduced as an all-new [monthly subscription service](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skip-plus) for $9.99. With this service, members are able to get free delivery on all orders they place over $15, which will certainly be of value to frequent customers. As DoorDash suggests, "a DashPass membership pays for itself with just three orders per month."

Additionally, the new subscription service offers a range of other benefits for members, such as access to exclusive promotions, discounts and more.

As delivery fees tend to fluctuate from just under a dollar to a few dollars based on region and participating restaurants, this new service offers an alternative to a flat fee pricing scheme for DoorDash's regular service.
