Last updated: October 16, 2026NY AG $16.75M — deadline passedMarko $100M — paid out 2022

DoorDash Settlement Check — Multi-Case Tracker (2026)

DoorDash has multiple settled class actions and government settlements covering Dashers, restaurants and customers. New: New York City announced a separate $131.5M worker-pay settlement on September 22, 2026 (no claim form). Status of the older cases as of October 15, 2026: NY $16.75M (claims CLOSED — surprise checks mailed June 17 to non-claimants owed $100+), Illinois $11.25M (payments began March 2025), San Francisco DA $2.102M ($302,000 of it driver restitution; claims closed March 18, 2026), Chicago $18M (restaurant payments announced for the end of June 2026).

How much will I get from the DoorDash settlement? It depends on which case applies to you. The NY AG ($16.75M) pays eligible Dashers — claimants, and non-claimants owed $100 or more — a percentage of the fund based on the guaranteed pay plus tip DoorDash owed per delivery, minus what it actually paid; shares under $10 are not paid, and typical amounts have not been published. In the separate NYC worker-pay settlement, each worker’s amount will be stated in the notice the administrator, Simpluris, is to email in late October 2026.

⚠️ Multiple DoorDash class actions. The NY AG ($16.75M) claim deadline of February 13, 2026 has PASSED — that window is closed. The $100M Marko California misclassification settlement is also finished: the court granted final approval in January 2022 and DoorDash paid the full $100 million in the second quarter of 2022. Nothing is open there.

DoorDash Class Action Universe — Multiple Cases, Different Deadlines

🆕 September 2026 — a separate New York City settlement: On September 22, 2026, New York City announced a $131.5 million settlement between DoorDash and its Department of Consumer and Worker Protection over delivery-worker pay rules (covered period April 22, 2022 – November 29, 2026). It is not the NY Attorney General case described below. The city says workers do not need to file a claim: the administrator, Simpluris, is to email eligible Dashers in late October 2026, and they then have 90 days to choose an electronic payment method. Workers who do not make a selection will receive a check in the mail to their last-known address. In early 2027, the city plans a second set of payments to a small group of DoorDash workers who were underpaid from June 29, 2026, through November 29, 2026 (official NYC DCWP settlement page). What we know about the NYC payments.

🔔 July 2026 update — the surprise checks are REAL: On June 17, 2026 the NY settlement administrator (Atticus Administration) mailed checks to eligible New York Dashers who never filed a claim but were owed $100 or more. If one landed in your mailbox: it's legitimate — verify the administrator name and cash it promptly. The NY claim window itself CLOSED February 13, 2026; there is no way to file late. Uncashed checks and unclaimed amounts under $100 transfer to your state's unclaimed-property division, where recovery is possible but can take 1–5 years (search your state's unclaimed property site for your name). Chicago: the administrator, Atticus, announced that restaurant payments from the $18M settlement would be issued by the end of June 2026; it has not posted a confirmation that they went out. The $4M in consumer credits were to be made available automatically to eligible Chicago users beginning January 28, 2026.

Since 2019, DoorDash has been the defendant in numerous class actions and government enforcement settlements (state attorneys general, the San Francisco District Attorney and New York City) — primarily over (a) Dasher misclassification as independent contractors, (b) the “tip-offset” pay model that used customer tips to subsidize Dasher guaranteed pay, and (c) gig-worker minimum-wage and overtime issues. A separate data-breach class action filed in federal court in November 2025 is closed: the docket shows a notice of voluntary dismissal and the case terminated on April 8, 2026.

Where three of the older cases stood when we last checked on October 15, 2026: the NY AG Tip-Offset Settlement ($16.75M) ran its own claims process and its deadline of February 13, 2026 has passed; the San Francisco District Attorney’s $2.102M judgment ($1.8M civil penalties, $302,000 restitution for drivers) set up a restitution fund whose claim deadline of March 18, 2026 has also passed; and the $100M Marko v. DoorDash California misclassification settlement is finished — the Los Angeles Superior Court granted final approval in January 2022 and DoorDash paid the full $100 million in the second quarter of 2022, per its own SEC filing.

Other cases closed to new claims: Salmons v. DoorDash FLSA (up to $663,520; claim deadline Sept 6, 2024; $186,770.04 paid to 976 claimants), and the Illinois AG Tip-Offset Settlement ($11.25M, claim deadline February 10, 2025; payments initiated March 4, 2025). Each case has its own rules, deadline, and administrator, and the NYC worker-pay settlement needs no claim form at all. Don’t assume a single “DoorDash settlement” covers your situation — check the eligibility section below.

Example Eligibility Profiles

Match your situation to one of these scenarios.

Profile 1 — Active NY Dasher 2018–2019

Delivered for DoorDash in New York City throughout 2018 and 2019. Roughly 1,200 deliveries completed during the May 2017–Sept 2019 NY AG class period.

This profile fits the $16.75M NY AG Settlement if DoorDash applied some of your customer tips to its guaranteed pay. The OAG calculated each Dasher’s share per delivery as the guaranteed pay plus tip, minus what DoorDash actually paid; the filing deadline was Feb 13, 2026 and has passed. Dashers who did not file but were owed $100 or more were mailed a check on June 17, 2026. Typical amounts have not been published.

Check if this is your situation →

Profile 2 — Illinois Dasher 2018

Delivered for DoorDash in Chicago for several months in 2018. Did not file a claim by February 10, 2025.

Would have fit the $11.25M IL AG Settlement if a customer tip on your deliveries was used to cover DoorDash’s guaranteed amount — but the claim deadline passed February 10, 2025, and IL AG payments go only to Dashers who filed a claim. Chicago’s separate $18M settlement set aside $500,000 for drivers who were delivering in Chicago as of September 2019, to be paid by Atticus Administration, the administrator of the Illinois settlement; we have not confirmed whether drivers who did not file an Illinois claim are included, and whether those payments have gone out has not been published.

Check if this is your situation →

Profile 3 — California Marko Class Opt-Out

California Dasher who explicitly opted out of the Marko class action and did not individually settle.

Covered by the $2.102M SF DA judgment — its $302,000 restitution fund is for the approximately 733 + 11 drivers who opted out of Marko or Marciano. Claims had to be submitted on DoorDashRestitutionEligibleDrivers.com no later than March 18, 2026; that deadline has passed, so no new claims are possible. Shares of drivers who did not claim go to the California State Controller’s Office.

Check if this is your situation →

Profile 4 — Nationwide Salmons FLSA Class

Delivered for DoorDash anywhere in the US between Aug 2016 and Aug 2023. Did not file a claim by September 6, 2024.

Matches the Salmons v. DoorDash FLSA Settlement (up to $663,520) only if you were not bound by an arbitration agreement and had not already released your FLSA claims — and the claim deadline passed September 6, 2024. Salmons was opt-in: Dashers who did not file a claim received no money and, per the settlement notice, kept their right to sue DoorDash for the claims asserted in that lawsuit. Whether such a claim is still timely is a legal question; Settlement Insight is not a law firm.

Profile 5 — DoorDash Customer (Not a Dasher)

Used DoorDash as a customer; never worked as a Dasher.

Generally not eligible for the tip-offset or misclassification cases (these compensate Dashers). One exception: eligible Chicago users with an active account were to receive order credits automatically beginning January 28, 2026, from the City of Chicago’s $18M settlement ($4M in credits in total). The Andrizzi data-breach case was closed on April 8, 2026 after a notice of voluntary dismissal; we know of no settlement in it.

Current Status by Case (checked October 15, 2026)

Snapshot of where each DoorDash case stands.

NY AG ($16.75M) — claims closed February 13, 2026 + SF DA ($2.102M) — restitution claims closed March 18, 2026. Neither case accepts claims any more (checked October 15, 2026). NYC worker pay ($131.5M) — no claim form; as of October 15, 2026 the settlement website said “The administration of this matter has not begun.” Notices are expected by email in late October 2026.
📨 IL AG ($11.25M) — payments initiated March 4, 2025; the claim window is closed, and the administrator has not published whether distribution is complete. Salmons FLSA (up to $663K) — completed: $186,770.04 was paid to 976 claimants in 2024 and the case was dismissed on October 11, 2024; a further $15,080 in unawarded attorney fees was ordered distributed to the same claimants.
✅ Marko ($100M California misclassification) — closed. Final approval January 2022, the full $100 million paid out in Q2 2022 (DoorDash 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022). No claims window remains. Andrizzi (data breach; consolidated as In re DoorDash, Inc. Data Breach Litigation, N.D. Cal. No. 3:25-cv-09926) — closed: the docket shows a notice of voluntary dismissal and the case terminated on April 8, 2026. The dismissal notice itself is not in the public docket copy we checked, so we cannot say whether it was with or without prejudice.

Eligibility — Which DoorDash Settlement Are You In?

Match your situation:

  • NYC Worker-Pay Settlement ($131.5M, no claim form) — DoorDash delivery workers in New York City; the city says anyone who worked for DoorDash between April 22, 2022 and November 29, 2026 may be eligible. The city’s Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) identified the workers owed money from DoorDash’s records, so there is nothing to file. The administrator, Simpluris, is to email each eligible worker a notice with the payment amount in late October 2026; a second, smaller round for June 29 – November 29, 2026 is planned for early 2027.
  • NY AG Tip-Offset Settlement ($16.75M, closed) — Delivered in New York State between May 2017 and September 2019, and DoorDash applied tip-offset pay during your delivery period. The claim deadline was February 13, 2026 and has passed; claim forms are no longer accepted. Min $10 distribution threshold. Administrator: Atticus Administration LLC.
  • Illinois AG Tip-Offset Settlement ($11.25M, payments began March 2025) — Delivered to consumers in Illinois between July 2017 and September 2019 under DoorDash’s Pay Guarantee Model, and a customer tip on such a delivery was allegedly used to cover DoorDash’s guaranteed amount. The consent decree counts 79,262 eligible Dashers, but only those who filed a claim are paid. Claim deadline February 10, 2025 (closed). Min $2 plus a share based on your owed tips. Payments were initiated March 4, 2025.
  • San Francisco District Attorney Judgment ($2.102M, of which $302,000 is driver restitution) — Brought by the SF District Attorney for the People of the State of California (San Francisco Superior Court, No. CGC-20-584789); the other $1.8M is civil penalties. Covers California drivers who opted out of the Marko class settlement (at least one California delivery between August 30, 2016 and December 31, 2020, and no individual settlement with DoorDash; approximately 733 drivers) or who opted out of Marciano (at least one delivery between June 17 and August 29, 2016; approximately 11 drivers). The final stipulated judgment, entered September 19, 2025, set up a restitution fund with its own claim website (DoorDashRestitutionEligibleDrivers.com); eligible drivers had to submit a claim no later than March 18, 2026, and that deadline has passed. No claim count or payment status has been published.
  • Salmons v. DoorDash FLSA (up to $663,520, closed) — Federal FLSA opt-in settlement (N.D. Cal. No. 3:19-cv-05279) — Dashers who completed at least one delivery in the United States between August 23, 2016 and August 31, 2023, were not bound by an arbitration agreement, and had not already released their FLSA claims or lost them to the statute of limitations. Claim deadline September 6, 2024 — PASSED. $186,770.04 was paid to the 976 Dashers who filed claims; the case was dismissed on October 11, 2024.
  • Marko v. DoorDash ($100M, closed) — California and Massachusetts Dasher misclassification settlement (No. BC659841, Los Angeles Superior Court). The court granted final approval in January 2022 and DoorDash paid the full $100 million during the second quarter of 2022, per its own SEC filing. Nothing left to claim.
  • City of Chicago v. DoorDash and Caviar ($18M, announced November 14, 2025) — Four groups: Chicago restaurants listed without consent that are no longer on the platform ($3.25M in equal shares, at most $2,500 each; attestation form deadline March 30, 2026, closed); current restaurant partners ($5.8M in commission and marketing credits); eligible Chicago users with an active account ($4M in order credits, to be made available automatically beginning January 28, 2026); and drivers who were delivering in Chicago as of September 2019 ($500,000, to be notified and paid by Atticus Administration).
  • In re DoorDash, Inc. Data Breach Litigation (originally Andrizzi v. DoorDash; closed) — N.D. California, No. 3:25-cv-09926. The docket shows a notice of voluntary dismissal and the case terminated on April 8, 2026. We found no settlement and no claim form.

Payout Mechanics by Case

Each DoorDash settlement uses its own formula. Several split a fixed fund pro rata — by withheld pay, owed tips or delivery miles — rather than paying a flat per-person amount.

  • NYC worker pay ($131.5M; $115.48M worker fund): Late pay is compensated at 200% of the late amount, and pay that was never made is repaid plus 200% of it (the city’s example: $1,000 never paid becomes $3,000; $1,000 paid late becomes $2,000). Minimum Pay Rate shortfalls are shared in proportion to each worker’s trip time in the affected pay period. Your amount is stated in your notice.
  • NY AG ($16.75M): For each delivery, the OAG took the guaranteed pay plus tip, minus what DoorDash actually paid; each Dasher receives a percentage of the fund. Shares under $10 are not paid.
  • IL AG ($11.25M): $2 per claimant plus a share of the remaining fund (after administration costs) equal to your owed tips divided by the owed tips of all claimants. Only Dashers who filed a claim are paid.
  • Salmons FLSA (up to $663,520): Pro-rata based on Unreleased Miles (DoorDash’s estimate of on-delivery miles) for each Eligible Claimant; unclaimed shares reverted to DoorDash, and $186,770.04 was paid to 976 claimants.
  • Marko ($100M, closed): $12.5M was PAGA civil penalties and $66,013,000 went to class members who did not opt out and submitted a timely claim; the per-person formula is not stated in the documents we reviewed. Approved January 2022 and paid out in Q2 2022.
  • SF DA ($2.102M; $302,000 restitution): Each eligible driver’s share is $302,000 times their California delivery miles in the covered period, divided by the miles of all eligible drivers — not just those who claimed. DoorDash pays administration costs on top. Checks are void if not cashed within 180 days, and shares of drivers who did not claim go to the California State Controller’s Office.
  • Chicago ($18M): Restaurants listed without consent and no longer on the platform split $3.25M in equal shares of at most $2,500 each; the $500,000 driver pot is paid through Atticus; consumers and current restaurant partners receive credits.

DoorDash Class Action Timeline

  1. 1

    2017–2019: Class Periods for Tip-Offset Cases

    Multiple state AGs (NY, IL, others) later alleged that DoorDash applied a pay model that used customer tips to offset its base-pay guarantee to Dashers — instead of paying tips on top. These class periods anchor the NY ($16.75M) and IL ($11.25M) AG settlements.

  2. 2

    2024: Salmons FLSA + IL AG Consent Decree

    May 13, 2024 — Salmons v. DoorDash FLSA settlement (up to $663,520) gets court approval; claim deadline September 6, 2024. November 2024 — Illinois AG consent decree finalized for $11.25M tip-offset settlement (claim deadline February 10, 2025).

  3. 3

    February 2025: NY AG Announces $16.75M Settlement

    February 24, 2025 — New York AG Letitia James announces $16.75M settlement covering ~63,000 NY Dashers from May 2017–Sept 2019. Atticus Administration begins sending notices April 2025; claim deadline February 13, 2026.

  4. 4

    September 19, 2025: SF DA $2.102M Judgment Entered

    DoorDash signed on September 11, 2025, and San Francisco Superior Court Judge Jeffrey S. Ross entered the $2.102M final stipulated judgment on September 19, 2025: $1.8M in civil penalties and $302,000 in restitution. The restitution covers approximately 733 + 11 California drivers who opted out of the Marko or Marciano class settlements. Eligible drivers had to file a restitution claim on the claim website by March 18, 2026; that deadline has passed. No claim count or payment status has been published.

  5. 5

    2022: Marko $100M Approved and Paid Out

    The $100M Marko v. DoorDash driver misclassification settlement in California is closed. Per DoorDash's own quarterly report to the SEC for the period ended 30 June 2022: the Los Angeles Superior Court granted <strong>final approval in January 2022</strong> (Marko v. DoorDash, Inc., No. BC659841), and <strong>all $100 million was paid during the second quarter of 2022</strong>. It resolved PAGA and misclassification claims for California Dashers (30 August 2016 – 31 December 2020) and Massachusetts Dashers (26 September 2014 – 31 March 2021). There is no claims window left to enter. The New York and Illinois Attorney General settlements ran their own separate processes, and the New York deadline of 13 February 2026 has passed.

Why This Case Matters

DoorDash has become a key test case for the broader gig-economy worker-classification debate. The New York and Illinois attorneys general, the San Francisco District Attorney and New York City have used consumer-protection and labor laws against DoorDash over Dasher tips and pay — and recovered money for affected workers. Headline amounts are not the same as money paid to Dashers: of the SF DA’s $2.1M, $1.8M is civil penalties and $302,000 is driver restitution; Salmons made up to $663,520 available, but $186,770.04 was paid out (plus $15,080 in unawarded fees ordered distributed to the same claimants). The older cases (NY $16.75M, IL $11.25M, Marko $100M paid 2022, SF $2.1M, Salmons) are separate from New York City’s $131.5M worker-pay settlement of September 2026.

DoorDash Settlement Scams — What to Watch For

Because so many DoorDash cases overlap, scams promising help with “DoorDash settlement money” are common. Recognize these patterns.

⚠️ Fake settlement emails or texts asking for personal info

Real notices come from named administrators (Atticus for the NY AG case; Simpluris for the NYC worker-pay settlement and, earlier, Salmons). Verify by case caption + look up via your state AG or via the official admin URL — don’t click links in unsolicited emails.

⚠️ Calls demanding SSN or full bank info to “process” payment

A call alone does not prove fraud: in the NYC worker-pay settlement, the consent order has the administrator, Simpluris, make one phone call and send one email if a check is undeliverable or not cashed. Electronic payment methods are chosen on the official settlement website. If someone calls asking for your SSN or full bank/routing numbers, do not give them on the phone; contact the administrator through its official website instead.

⚠️ Advance-fee scams (“pay $X to release your DoorDash check”)

Real settlements never charge recipients a fee to receive funds. Any such request is fraud.

⚠️ Cold-call “gig-worker rights” pitches offering to file for you

Some operators cold-call gig workers offering “claim filing services” for a fee. Legitimate class action claim forms are free to file directly through the admin URL — no third-party service required.

⚠️ “Tax preparer” reaching out about your DoorDash settlement

Unsolicited tax-preparer outreach about your settlement is a common phishing vector. Your IRS information is private; legitimate tax pros do not cold-call about specific class action settlements.

Separate from this case: were you injured in the last 2 years?

DoorDash Settlement FAQs

I got an email from DoorDash Settlement Administrator. Is it real?

Very likely yes. The NY administrator is Atticus Administration LLC (nydoordashsettlement.com); they mailed a wave of REAL checks on June 17, 2026 to eligible NY Dashers who never filed a claim but were owed $100+. Verify the sender name, then cash it — no fee, no personal data needed. Anyone asking you to pay a fee or 'verify' your SSN/bank login to release a DoorDash payment is a scammer. Separately, in the NYC worker-pay settlement the administrator Simpluris (nycdoordashsettlement.com) is to email each eligible worker a settlement notice with the payment amount in late October 2026; there is nothing to file.

How much will I get from the DoorDash settlement?

It depends on which case applies to you. NY AG ($16.75M) pays a percentage of the fund based on the guaranteed pay plus tip DoorDash owed per delivery, minus what it actually paid; shares under $10 are not paid, and typical amounts have not been published. IL AG ($11.25M) pays claimants at least $2 plus a share based on their owed tips. Marko ($100M) was paid out in 2022 and is closed. For the separate NYC worker-pay settlement, your amount will be stated in the notice Simpluris is to email in late October 2026; DoorDash (not the city) puts the median payment at around $48.

When will I get my DoorDash settlement check?

NY AG: Atticus pays continuously as it receives claims, within 15–30 days of a valid claim form, by ACH, Zelle, PayPal, Venmo, Virtual Mastercard or check; Dashers who did not file but were owed $100 or more were mailed a check on June 17, 2026 (valid for 90 days). IL AG payments were initiated on March 4, 2025. Salmons FLSA was distributed in 2024. Marko ($100M) was paid out in the second quarter of 2022. NYC worker pay: notices are expected by email in late October 2026; workers then have 90 days to choose an electronic payment method, otherwise a check is mailed.

Can I still file a claim if I missed the deadline?

Generally no — class action deadlines are strict. The NY AG window closed on February 13, 2026. IL ($11.25M, deadline Feb 10, 2025) and Salmons ($663K, deadline Sept 6, 2024) are closed. The SF DA settlement’s restitution fund for California opt-out drivers had its own claim website, and its deadline of March 18, 2026 has passed too. No DoorDash settlement claim form is open right now. For the separate NYC worker-pay settlement, workers do not need to file a claim at all: the administrator, Simpluris, is to email eligible workers in late October 2026, and they then have 90 days to choose a payment method. As of October 15, 2026, the settlement website still said “The administration of this matter has not begun.”

Can I opt out and sue DoorDash individually?

It depends on the type of case. The NY AG and Illinois AG settlements are government enforcement agreements, and we found no opt-out procedure in their published documents. Salmons was an opt-in FLSA settlement: Dashers who did not file a claim received nothing and, per the settlement notice, kept their right to sue over the claims in that lawsuit. Marko was a class settlement with an opt-out; the approximately 733 California drivers who opted out and had not settled individually with DoorDash were covered by the SF DA restitution fund, whose claim deadline passed March 18, 2026. In the NYC worker-pay settlement, the notice must offer an option to opt out of receiving the payment, and accepting the payment releases private claims under the city pay provisions named in the order. Whether an individual lawsuit is still possible depends on your facts — Settlement Insight is not a law firm.

Do I need to hire a lawyer to file the claim?

No. No DoorDash claim form is open right now, and the separate NYC worker-pay settlement needs no claim form at all. Several of these cases (NY AG, Illinois AG, San Francisco DA, NYC) are government enforcement settlements, not class actions run by class counsel.

Is the settlement taxable?

It depends on the case, and the documents say different things. The NYC consent order states that settlement payments “are not and shall not be considered wages” and that nothing is withheld for taxes. The Illinois consent decree says Dasher payments “will not be treated as wages.” The NY AG administrator says claimants receive IRS Form 1099. We have not confirmed the tax treatment of the SF DA and Salmons payments. This is not tax advice — consult a tax professional, especially for larger payouts.

What about the DoorDash data breach case?

Andrizzi v. DoorDash was filed on November 18, 2025 in the N.D. California over a data breach that, according to the complaint, exposed names, email addresses, phone numbers and physical addresses of some DoorDash customers, Dashers and merchants. In January 2026 it was consolidated with Alexander v. DoorDash as In re DoorDash, Inc. Data Breach Litigation (No. 3:25-cv-09926). On April 8, 2026 the docket recorded a notice of voluntary dismissal and the case was terminated — we found no settlement and no claim form. The dismissal notice itself is not in the public docket copy we checked, so we cannot say whether it was with or without prejudice.

What’s Still Uncertain

On the Marko v. DoorDash $100M California misclassification settlement we can now be precise, because DoorDash reported it itself: in its quarterly report to the SEC for the period ended 30 June 2022, the company states that the Los Angeles Superior Court granted final approval in January 2022 and that all $100 million was paid during the second quarter of 2022. The case is closed — there is nothing to file for. (An earlier version of this page could not confirm the posture because the docket was looked for in the wrong county; the case is No. BC659841 in Los Angeles, not San Francisco.) What genuinely remains open changes case by case, so check the administrator for the specific settlement that applies to you.
