Amazon Revives 'Thank My Driver' Initiative, Offers Cash Rewards to Delivery Drivers

The first 2 million drivers to receive a thank you will get $5 from Amazon, with additional rewards for the most-thanked drivers through December.

  • Amazon has revived its 'Thank my driver' initiative, allowing customers to tip their delivery drivers at no cost to them. The first 2 million drivers to receive a thank you will also get $5 from Amazon.
  • Customers can thank their drivers by saying 'Alexa, thank my driver' or through the Amazon app. This gesture is only available for deliveries made within the past 14 days.
  • After the first 2 million thank yous, Amazon will offer additional rewards, including $100 each for the 1,000 most-thanked drivers each day through the rest of December and $10,000 for the five top-thanked drivers each week until the end of December.
  • The five most-thanked Amazon drivers from December 12 to December 31 will receive $25,000 plus an extra $25,000 to be donated to the charity of their choice.
  • Other ways to show appreciation to delivery drivers include leaving snacks and refreshments on porches, or preparing a small gift for regular drivers.
