DoorDash is getting ready to offer drivers hourly pay rates, but there's a catch!

The hourly rate is only based on the time spent on a delivery, meaning the time between accepting an order and delivering it.

Drivers currently get paid a fee for each delivery.

The company's minimum wage rate will be between $10 and $19.50 an hour. Drivers can also earn extra tips.

The new policy will not impact New York drivers because the city's Earning Standard law already sets a minimum pay for workers.

DoorDash says the change could help recruit more drivers and alleviate fair wage concerns.
