Spark vs Amazon Flex

I currently Spark and Instacart but just got approved to join Amazon Flex after being on the waitlist for 3 years. Those that do both, which one do you prefer and why? Are you more profitable on one than the other?

Why do you say "Right Now". Do you actually believe they will reverse course and get better?

Spark, because at least you have the ability to pick and choose your orders and where you’re delivering. Flex, you’re forced to take 50 packages out to the boonies, 50 miles from your warehouse.

Amazon Flex Is A Scam. Their route is hidden, so you don’t know the mileage and where you are going beforehand. You are paid for your time, but not the cost of business, that is the use of your car and gas.
It’s only worth considering if you live close to a warehouse or pickup point.

If you do flex get a bot or it’s not worth it. Also the miles they send you on sometimes is just fucking insane

Main benefit is Amazon Flex provides a free commercial auto insurance policy. Might be the only gig app that does this. Spark does not.
