John,

Your Story Matters: Tell Us How Apps Pay You Less

If you work at Uber, DoorDash, Instacart or any other rideshare or delivery service, you've likely experienced it: completing the same tasks as others but earning less. A delivery that pays another driver $15 could only pay you $8. The same ride across town that earns some drivers $25 might earn you just $17. This isn't just bad luck; it's bad design.

Companies like Uber, DoorDash, and Instacart are using hidden algorithms that personalize your pay based on who you are and where you live. These secret formulas are creating racial pay disparities, with Black and Hispanic workers earning less for identical work. Meanwhile, these same algorithms are charging higher prices to customers in predominantly Black and Brown neighborhoods.

The numbers tell the story1: Black gig workers comprise 23% of in-person app workers despite being only 12.1% of the overall workforce. Combined, Hispanic and Black workers comprise less than 29% of the workforce, but almost 42% of workers on apps like Uber, Handy, Postmates, and Amazon Flex. These workers are systematically paid less while consumers in their communities are charged more.

But we can't fight what we can't see. We invite you to share YOUR story.
