These are “unicorns” that have a messed up address. Spark does not expect you to drive 1k miles for $80. And they usually pay the full amount. The big batches of 5-10 orders are what we call “dotcoms” and you’re basically just an Amazon driver for these. You will not see tips from these 99.9% of the time.
ADMIN MOD. I will give an honest review on my experience with Spark Driver. In contrast to other delivery apps, I say don't bother signing up for this slave wage. My very first order was a shopping order and it paid $30+ it was worth my time and effort- all was good. The second offer was 2 drop-off orders for $17.00.
700 with about 4-5 hr a day. When it gives me good incentives all week I can make about $1000-1200 a week. On a regular week working 5 days and 6-8h a day I can make between $800-1000. I also do UE along with it and can do 1-2 orders between round robins and can make an additional $30-50 a day.
amazon has less turnover, higher margins, sealed bags, and superior logistics data. Their "guard rails" against driver fuckups are that on average, fresh/whole foods blocks are more likely to get picked up by people who have proven themselves with packages and have a accuracy score, 2 bags of fresh/whole foods items could have $60 in profit while at walmart 2 bags might have $0.60 in profit ...
I was working self checkout yesterday and a Spark driver came through. I got the prompt to check their order. There were only three items so I had to scan them all. Once I got to the last item the app said it did not match. So the interaction went like this: Me: The app says the item doesn't match. Driver: When I scanned it, it matched.
This is what it’s all about? I finally was approved to drive for Spark after being wait listed for years and I am baffled. Everyone said the money was great but this is garage. I took my first delivery, which was two deliveries from Walmart. It was for $9.00 and I don’t remember how many miles.
These people have to have access to the house, and have to have some form of electronic payment method on walmart.com, and walmart will know where your last stop was if you disappear so they aren't anonymous. Plus, there isn't much incentive for someone to do anything to a delivery driver as most are not financially well off.
2. EveningBasket9528. • 1 yr. ago. Just keep in mind they have caller ID and often store drivers #'s in their phone memory. (They use a cell phone). There's nothing wrong with calling to check but if they give you an answer and you keep calling every 5 minutes they might get annoyed. 1.
Walmart is in the process of buying out spark. I font have a link but read it a few days ago. My experience with spark is this. I've done a couple shops and then deliveries and like them. The pay is reasonable blah blah. But that was the beginning. Just yesterday I drove out to Walmart , turned on the app and waited for a decent run.
