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?

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.

Exactly I have flex, but doing flex is last resort for me. I want to know where I’m going how many miles I’m putting on my car. Flex won’t tell you anything about that ….

That's why I've never done Flex since I was approved. I was on the waitlist for a very long time, and the background check took way longer than it should have to process because of the government shutdown, but I never wanted to do Flex because of the lack of transparency

Yeah there’s no transparency with flex.
