That little tip box? From the driver’s seat, it can change the entire offer. Let’s look at the miles, the minutes, and the money left over.
No guilt trip. Just the actual trip. ↗
DOESN’T MAKE OBVIOUS.
REAL MILES.

Ride along for one order.
The shopping, waiting, driving, and invisible bits in between.

Your Spark delivery can start long before the car moves.
On a shopping order, the drive is only one chapter of the job.
That’s one order.
Now do eight hours.
The founder can use up to half an $80 refill in an eight-hour small-SUV shift. That is about $40 in fuel before wear, taxes or other costs.
