DoorDash and Uber lose lawsuit; New York City's mandatory checkout showing tips new rule takes effect next week
DoorDash and Uber lost a lawsuit in New York City regarding a law that requires delivery platforms to display a tip option on the checkout page. A U.S. federal judge rejected the companies' request for a temporary restraining order, and the law will take effect on January 26. According to the regulation, platforms must show consumers a suggested tip option, with an amount not less than 10%. Delivery platforms are concerned that the new rule may lead consumers to feel that prices are too high, thereby affecting their willingness to place orders
