DoorDash has a real developer portal, sandbox and SDK, but the merchant-side Marketplace API is not generally available and Drive production access is restricted with no timeline. You can build today; going live depends on DoorDash approval.
DoorDash scores D on Supergood's API Report Card. DoorDash has a real developer portal, sandbox and SDK, but the merchant-side Marketplace API is not generally available and Drive production access is restricted with no timeline. You can build today; going live depends on DoorDash approval.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.
DoorDash is the largest third-party food delivery marketplace in the United States. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in San Francisco, it trades on Nasdaq as DASH.
Restaurants & Food Service (with growing grocery, convenience and retail categories). A restaurant lists on the Marketplace and receives orders on the DoorDash tablet or directly in its POS through an integration.
More than 600,000 US merchants (DoorDash US Community Impact Report, December 2025; Business of Apps cites 615,000 partnered restaurants and grocers), roughly 60.7 percent of US food delivery sales at the end of 2024 per Earnest Analytics card data, 3.2 billion orders and $102 billion in gross order value in 2025.
Per-store menus and pricing, live and historical orders with customer first names, drop-off addresses and phone numbers (PII, masked in places), Dasher assignments and tracking, store hours and status, payouts, commissions, error charges and disputes, customer ratings and reviews, and ad campaign spend.
Founded 2013.
A Hacker News thread asks whether anyone has moved up the Marketplace integration queue; the poster knows one company stuck on the list for a long time and a well-built delivery aggregator that lost its access, and questions whether "application readiness" is the real criterion. A developer implementing the DoorDash WordPress plugin waited months for production access outreach that the portal promised within 1 to 2 days. Full sourced list under Sources below.
Common alternatives include Uber Eats, Grubhub, Olo, Toast, Owner.com. Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Supergood's grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? Supergood checks six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and rolls them into a letter grade. Supergood re-verifies grades, and they only move on evidence.
Not that we could find. There is no official DoorDash MCP server in any public registry, and no maintained community server we're aware of. We re-verify this periodically — report an inaccuracy below if we missed one.
Not natively. DoorDash doesn't publish an MCP server, so MCP clients like Claude, Cursor, and Codex have nothing to connect to out of the box. If that changes, this page will reflect it.
