They seem to send out orders first to people closest to the restaurant, but often well before the order is ready. So often you might get an offer from a place nearby but it’s not expected to be ready for 20 min. You can go do a short DD or UE order and come back, though.

In my region, Caviar doesn’t have a way to update bonuses in real time. They’ll set a bonus (some amount of $ for every three orders) as late as a couple hours ahead of the start time, but if weather changes or business turns out to be really busy, they just don’t have any way of adding more money to orders like other services do.

They’re the service I started with but probably my least used now, because of how slow their orders are and how their estimated total might be way off. Like if someone puts in a $0 tip on a $100 order, it’s gonna show you an estimated payout of about $22, but you might end up getting only $4. Their base pay is really low for such an expensive service and the hidden tips just make it the most risky one for me.

You can message support within 5 min of accepting an order and tell them to unassign it because it’s been less than 5 minutes and they’ll do it. They’ll actually unassign any order you tell them but if it ends up being too much or too late, you might get a warning letter. I don’t know if anything happens due to these warning letters, though.
