Royal Bank of Canada (RY) and DoorDash, a leading last-mile logistics platform, have announced a joint initiative under which eligible RBC credit cardholders will receive a free subscription to DashPass for up to 12 months, depending on the credit card they hold.
With DashPass, DoorDash’s subscription program, customers pay no delivery charges and enjoy reduced service fees on eligible orders, as well as other benefits at participating locations when they place an order for take-out or delivery from restaurants across Canada.
Niranjan Vivekanandan, Senior Vice-President, Loyalty & Merchant Solutions, RBC, said, “We know that many of our clients enjoy on-demand food delivery, so we’re excited to team up with DoorDash to offer this exclusive savings to our credit cardholders. We are always looking for new and creative ways to provide our clients with more value and this is a benefit that so many of them can take advantage of simply by being a credit cardholder.”
RBC and DoorDash will also offer benefits to RBC small business account holders who sign up for DoorDash for the first time, including a 60-day commission-free trial period with DoorDash. (See Royal Bank of Canada stock chart on TipRanks)
