Investing.com -- DoorDash (NASDAQ:DASH) stock rose 4% Thursday after announcing a partnership with Waymo to launch an autonomous delivery service in Metro Phoenix, with plans for broader commercial operations later this year.

The food delivery giant is currently testing the service, which will allow DoorDash customers to receive deliveries via Waymo’s fully autonomous vehicles. Initial deliveries will come from DashMart, the company’s owned and operated convenience and grocery store, with plans to expand to other merchants over time.

In addition to the autonomous delivery service, DoorDash is offering DashPass members in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Phoenix a promotion of $10 off one Waymo ride per month through December 31, 2025. New promotion codes will be issued monthly.

"DashPass is designed to give consumers consistent value, convenience, and access to the best of their communities, and our partnership with Waymo builds on that promise," said David Richter, Vice President of Business and Corporate Development at DoorDash.

The autonomous deliveries will operate through DoorDash’s Autonomous Delivery Platform, which coordinates various delivery methods including human Dashers, robots, drones, and now Waymo vehicles.
