There seems to be some discrepancy about whether Uber Eats drivers see a tip before or after the delivery is complete. Some sources say that the drivers are given a split of the total order value, with the majority going to the driver before the delivery is completed, and then the remainder given after the delivery is complete.
Other sources claim that the drivers are given their entire fee up front, regardless of whether the delivery is completed before or after the order is placed.
Ultimately, it appears that the drivers are given their entire fee up front, with the tip being added on top. However, it is unclear which method is more common.
It is possible that Uber Eats is experimenting with both methods, to see what works better for its drivers and customers.
