What this deactivation means

The termination email cites the Delivery Partner Agreement or Terms of Use without naming an incident. The agreement lets Gopuff end the contract for broad reasons: unprofessional service, conduct Gopuff believes breaks any law or threatens safety, misrepresenting your time on the platform or your credentials, or, outside California, simply at any time at its discretion. The D.C. Attorney General found Gopuff does not tell drivers the full list of rules, so the real trigger is usually one of the other reasons on this list: a complaint, a metric, a document, or an automated flag.

Where and when to appeal

Channel
California is the only place Gopuff promises an appeal: email driverengagement@gopuff.com within 10 business days of the termination notice (this right is written into the June 2025 California driver terms), and follow the appeal instructions at the end of the termination email itself. Also open the 'Gopuff Driver' app: 'Account' tab, then 'Get Support', then 'Contact and Feedback', then 'Contact Support', then 'Start Conversation'. Outside California the contract gives no formal appeal right, so use the same in-app support chat, reply directly to the termination email, and email support@gopuff.com (partners@gopuff.com also reaches Gopuff). One clear message with evidence attached beats many short ones. Note: driversupport@gopuff.com does not appear on any official Gopuff page; do not rely on it.
Deadline
California: the driver terms give 10 business days to email your appeal, and the help page says up to one week to submit supporting information, so treat one week as the safe target. Other states: no published deadline, but send it fast while records are fresh. Seattle: 90 days to challenge under the city ordinance.
Decision time
Gopuff publishes no review timeline. The California terms only promise that Gopuff will tell you about any further appeal steps after you file, and a reversal arrives as an email saying your contract is reinstated. Drivers report support replies can take days and some never get a clear answer, so follow up in the same chat thread instead of opening new tickets.

The evidence that moves this reason

  • A screenshot of the exact termination email
  • Your last two to three weeks of order history (order IDs, dates, facility)
  • Metrics screenshots if you have them (on-time, completion)
  • Support chats about any recent problem delivery
  • Any earlier warning emails

What actually works

Ask Gopuff to name the specific incident and policy, then answer the most likely trigger anyway. Build a short timeline of your recent deliveries, flag anything that went wrong, and attach the records for it. A clear factual timeline reads better than a broad denial.

You can win this one, but only with strong, specific proof; a form letter won't move it.
