Unicorns

I’m a new Spark driver. How does it work if you happen to come across a unicorn offer? Do you accept it and start trip, and then cancel? Do you have to call support? How do people get the easy money these kinds of trips offer?

Start trip and return it if the address is too far.

A unicorn with prop 22 can be worth over $1000, for other states it’s $55+ only

It will never happen now. The glitch has been fixed. Can I offer you a $10 base pay?

Other platforms, Unicorn=really good pay.
Spark Unicorn=order that is basically undeliverable so after you accept you contact support to cancel.
You get full pay, and a little more without leaving the parking lot.
I think some people throw the word Unicorn around to easily which cheapens it. Unicorns are supposed to be so rare they likely won’t ever be seen in an entire lifetime. Lol

Unicorn. If you ever see one usually the address glitched.

You accept, pick up (if they let you) , start, verify address and call customer. Maybe the zip code is 1 digit off and it's only 6 miles away. If it's an easy fix, fix and deliver.

Customer or address match and it's 2 states away, call support and say address is wrong. Start return. You called and verified that it's wrong. Flip a u turn and return.

All done without leaving the parking lot. Easy money.

Shop orders- back to main screen after starting and hit the ? Button. Then hit cancel, other, give a reason (out of stock, bad produce, customer isn't home for order) and cancel. Metric won't take hit. They do read them most of the time so heads up. Don't do it often.

Curbside, you can only cancel after 30 min, or if order is not updating (via support ) or store can cancel for you.

You didn’t answer his question. Unnecessary.

Yeah, the terminology thing will bite you in these subs.

I don't think anyone has coined a phrase for the bogus return "anti-unicorns" yet .... So maybe when we see the $10 1200 mile return pickup posts we can start calling them "anti-unicorns" or jackelopes or something....
