   • Remember to give the Taco Bell staff your first name when you pick up your order so they know what food to give you.
   • Review your order and the final price before submitting your order. This will help you catch errors before you pay for and pick up your food.

EditUsing Food Delivery Apps

1. Choose a food delivery app to buy Taco Bell menu items from home. Although Taco Bell doesn't offer a delivery service, you can use a food delivery app to buy Taco Bell without leaving your home. Try a popular food delivery app to complete your order, like:^[11]
   
   • Grubhub
   • Uber Eats
   • Postmates
   • Door Dash
   • Foodler
2. Select Taco Bell from the app's restaurant options and place your order. Most food apps offer a list of available restaurants in your area. Choose Taco Bell from the list of options and place your order either by selecting it on the app's menu or typing it into the app.
   
   • How you place your order specifically varies depending on the app.
3. Pay for your food using the app's checkout system. How you pay for the food varies on the app, but you will generally have to pay for the food before the driver picks it up. After placing your order, make a payment so the food delivery driver can pick it up.
   
   • You will likely need to pay an extra fee to cover pickup expenses. On average, delivery fees range from $5-10 USD.
4. Watch the app to follow your driver's progress. Most apps allow you to watch the driver via GPS as they pick up your food. Keep an eye on the app so you can answer the door when your driver knocks.
   
   • If you're able, tip your driver as a sign of appreciation. While there is no set range for delivery tips, 15-20% of the bill is normal.
