Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) and DoorDash (NYSE: DASH) are both pioneers in digital orders. Starbucks started accepting mobile payments back in 2011, just four years after the first iPhone launched, and expanded that digital platform to include mobile orders and other online features.
DoorDash, which was founded in 2013, became the largest third-party food delivery platform in America. Its streamlined platform overtook Grubhub (NYSE: GRUB) , which mainly expanded through fragmented acquisitions, and Uber (NYSE: UBER) , which leveraged its lead in the ride-hailing market to provide food deliveries.
