Domino's Pizza Pay Rates 2026: Driver, Pizza Maker & Manager
Domino's Australia hourly rates 2026 — pizza maker, driver, shift run, and store manager pay. Plus driver allowances and reimbursements.
Domino's award coverage
Domino's is covered by the Fast Food Industry Award (MA000003). In-store roles (pizza maker, customer service) and delivery drivers using Domino's-supplied vehicles are both covered. Drivers using their own vehicle are also covered, with additional km and vehicle allowances payable.
Domino's adult hourly rates
From 1 July 2025:
- Level 1 (pizza maker, customer service, in-store driver): $27.81/hr permanent / $34.76/hr casual
- Level 2 (cook, trainer): $29.45/hr / $36.81/hr
- Level 3 (shift run, supervisor): $29.91/hr / $37.39/hr
Driver allowances (own vehicle)
If you use your own car for Domino's deliveries, you're entitled to a vehicle allowance on top of your hourly rate. Award rates from 1 July 2025:
- Cents per kilometre: $0.95/km for cars, $0.34/km for motorbikes
- Per shift (alternative — depends on franchise method): vehicle allowance amount per the award
This is in addition to your hourly rate, casual loading, and any penalty rates. If your franchise pays a flat "delivery fee" instead, check that it equals or exceeds the per-km calculation for your actual deliveries.

Fast food pay issues worth checking on any payslip
General award-compliance issues that come up across the fast food sector. This is a checklist for your own payslip, not a finding about Domino's.
Issues to check:
- Per-km vehicle allowance not paid for own-car deliveries
- Junior rate not updated after birthday
- Late-night loadings missed
- "Off the clock" prep work before opening
Drivers: keep a log of every delivery, the date, and the kilometres. If your allowance is wrong, you'll need this evidence.
