Caviar doesn't do teacher discounts or hook into ID.me at all, unfortunately. Since DoorDash owns them now, your best bet is linking DashPass, especially if you get it free through a Chase credit card. Otherwise, just watch your inbox for targeted 20% codes or filter by spots running their own BOGO specials.

Caviar’s delivery fees get ridiculous, but DoorDash actually owns them now. If you get DashPass through a Chase card, link it to Caviar—it zeroes out delivery on orders over $12. Just watch the final checkout screen closely, because the separate service fee and inflated menu prices still sting. Direct pickup beats both.

Caviar killed their referral links once DoorDash took over the backend. Honestly, just use DoorDash referrals instead—it's mostly the same restaurants and drivers anyway. If you're stuck on Caviar, your only real workaround is making a burner account with a fresh email to grab their new user promo code at checkout.

Caviar takes all the standard cards like Visa, Amex, and Discover, but don't just pay full price directly. Since they're owned by DoorDash, you can load discounted DoorDash gift cards from Costco or Target to your account first. Apple Pay works fine in the app too if you want that 2% cash back.
