What should a restaurant check before concluding that a DoorDash payout is missing?

Start with the finalized payout record: payout ID, status, amount, scheduled date, and included transactions. Confirm the bank account ending digits and look for verification or account-information notices. DoorDash notes that mismatched business or identity information can delay payment in some situations.

Then search the bank by amount and date range, allowing for processing timing and combined deposits. If the payout shows completed but no matching bank activity exists, preserve screenshots or exports and open a support case with the exact payout ID. Do not email full bank credentials.
