When making a test purchase using a credit card, take note that the transaction may fail if the amount exceeds a certain percentage of the overall transaction that includes any auto-deducted fees such as: DoorDash Drive, DoorDash Tips, and App Fees. When the transaction fails, you will see a notification like the one below.
To avoid these issues, we recommend using a 100% discount coupon that you can create in your Sociavore account. Just follow the steps below.
