Most food delivery people are classified as “independent contractors” and are therefore not subject to minimum wage. This is almost certainly not consistent with federal law but multiple legal challenges have failed due to corrupt judges and captured regulators.

That applies to Uber Eats and similar, not to Domino’s delivery drivers who are Domino’s employees

Most pizza franchises have offloaded delivery to apps.

Domino’s has not. Yet people criticize a few dollars delivery fee, despite Uber eats actually costing more (maybe not at first glance, but the prices in store and online are different which is worse)

I’ve literally picked up and delivered pizzas from Dominos while working for doordash. I suspect it’s franchise dependent.
