McDonald’s has partnered with DoorDash to let customers in the US order food online for delivery.

DoorDash said the partnership lets customers order food using flexible payment options on mobile web or desktop, with no need to download an app or create an account.

The company said the new online ordering experience shows both brands’ focus on digital innovation and customer choice, making delivery more convenient and efficient.

DoorDash, with its affiliated brand Wolt, now provides delivery for McDonald’s in 29 countries including Japan, Australia and Canada.

“With millions of customers visiting McDonalds.com each month, this channel extends our reach, offering a seamless and convenient way to have their McDonald’s favourites delivered,” said Tim Snyder, head of delivery, McDonald’s USA. “It reflects our continued commitment to meeting customer demands and strengthening accessibility across all touchpoints.”

In May this year, DoorDash acquired Deliveroo in a deal that valued the UK-based food delivery company at £2.9 billion.

Under the deal, DoorDash will pay 180 pence in cash per Deliveroo share, a 44 per cent premium to Deliveroo's closing price on 4 April 2025, before takeover talks were announced.

The deal will create a combined entity with operations in over 40 countries, serving around 50 million monthly active users and generating a total order value of about $90 billion in 2024.
