DoorDash statistics in the US 2026 show a company at record scale: Q3 2026 revenue reached $4.6 billion (up 34%), Marketplace GOV hit $33.9 billion, orders totaled 993 million, and net income rose 91% to $466 million. DoorDash served over 56 million monthly active users and over 35 million paid and partnership members at the end of 2025, holds an estimated 56% to 68% of US food delivery by third-party count, and on October 29, 2026 agreed to buy Instacart for about $17 billion.
DoorDash in the US 2026 – Introduction
DoorDash statistics in the US 2026 describe the largest food and local delivery platform in the United States. Founded in 2013 by four Stanford students, DoorDash reported $13.7 billion in revenue for 2025 and $13.1 billion in the first nine months of 2026 alone. On October 29, 2026 it released third-quarter results and announced a definitive agreement to acquire Instacart at $65.00 per share, an equity value of about $17 billion.
DoorDash reports one set of figures for the US and its international brands, Wolt and Deliveroo, so company numbers in this report are global unless stated. US market share figures come from third-party estimates, which differ by source, and are labeled that way. Figures run through October 30, 2026, and forecasts and deal terms are labeled as company expectations.

The chart shows Q3 2026 growth rates, and net income grew fastest at 91%. DoorDash completed 993 million orders in one quarter, about 11 million orders per day, worth $33.9 billion in Marketplace GOV. The company counts GOV as the total value of marketplace orders including taxes, tips and consumer fees.
Growth is partly acquired. Excluding Deliveroo, Q3 2026 orders rose 17%, GOV rose 23% and revenue rose 23%, compared with 28%, 36% and 34% including it. Deliveroo contributed $365 million of Q3 revenue, and $1.11 billion across the first nine months of 2026.

Revenue has risen every quarter shown, from $3.4 billion in Q3 2025 to $4.6 billion in Q3 2026. Net Revenue Margin, which is revenue as a share of Marketplace GOV, stayed in a narrow band of 12.8% to 13.8%, so revenue growth has tracked order value growth. Revenue in the first nine months of 2026 was about 34% higher than the same period in 2025.
DoorDash’s guidance points to further growth. For Q4 2026 it expects Marketplace GOV of $35.4 billion to $36.4 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of $900 million to $1.1 billion. These are company expectations, and the company says its outlook assumes stable consumer demand and currency rates.

Source: DoorDash quarterly results, 2025 and 2026; DoorDash Form 8-K, October 29, 2026. 2025 totals calculated from the four published quarters.
Annual revenue rose from about $10.7 billion in 2024 to about $13.7 billion in 2025, and nine-month 2026 revenue of $13.1 billion is already close to the full 2025 total. The 2025 figure includes only the last quarter of Deliveroo, which closed on October 2, 2025, so 2026 is the first year with a full contribution.
Profit has grown faster than revenue. Net income for 2025 was $935 million, compared with about $123 million in 2024, and nine-month 2026 net income of $850 million is already near that total. Q3 2026 alone accounted for $466 million.

Orders passed 3.1 billion in 2025 and Marketplace GOV passed $100 billion for the year. The step-up in Q4 2025 came from the Deliveroo acquisition, which closed on October 2, 2025. DoorDash passed 10 billion lifetime orders globally in Q2 2025.
The average order is getting larger. Marketplace GOV divided by Total Orders was roughly $34 in Q3 2026, up from roughly $32 in Q3 2025, as a rough calculation from the published figures. DoorDash attributes GOV growth to more orders and higher average order value.

DoorDash says its US restaurant business grew faster than in Q2, despite a strong comparison with Q3 2025, and that quarter-over-quarter growth was the fastest for any third quarter since 2020. US grocery and retail, DoorDash’s newer categories, grew at more than twice the restaurant rate.
Membership drives much of this. In Q2 2026, DashPass members placed about 75% of orders in US grocery and retail, and the company said it added more paid US DashPass members in the 12 months through Q2 than in the previous 24 months combined.

DoorDash’s audience has nearly tripled since its first year as a public company. At the end of 2020 it reported 20 million consumers, and in December 2025 it served over 56 million monthly active users. The two measures are defined differently, so the comparison shows scale rather than an exact growth rate. The 35 million member figure includes Wolt+ and Deliveroo Plus, so it is not a US-only DashPass count.
The company does not publish a US-only user count in these filings. It says US DashPass paid members have grown strongly, and that its marketplaces served merchants, consumers and Dashers in over 40 countries. Dashers are independent contractors, and the company reports their earnings, over $20 billion in 2025, rather than a headcount.

No single official figure exists for US share, and the estimates range from 56% to 68% for DoorDash. Most recent sources cluster near two-thirds, with Uber Eats at roughly a quarter and Grubhub in single digits after its sale to Wonder. The estimates use different measures, such as orders, sales or app usage, so treat the average as a range.
Local markets differ. Third-party data cited by OysterLink put DoorDash at 38.4% in New York against 38.2% for Uber Eats, and at 74% in San Francisco, while Uber Eats led Miami with 55%. DoorDash leads on accuracy in the Intouch study of 600 mystery shops, while Uber Eats is faster on average.

The Instacart deal is the largest in DoorDash’s history. Instacart holders can elect $65.00 in cash, 0.3372 DoorDash shares, or a mix, with stock capped at 25% of the total. The price is a 26% premium to Instacart’s October 22 close. DoorDash targets $500 million or more in annual synergies over several years, and expects to reinvest more than 100% of synergies in the first year after closing.
Approvals are still required. The deal needs Instacart stockholder approval, US antitrust clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, and approvals including Canada and Israel. Holders of about 19% of Instacart’s shares have agreed to vote in favor. DoorDash’s earlier deals changed its scale: Wolt added international markets, and Deliveroo added the UK and more than 1 million merchants to the combined platform.
