(WXMI) — Amazon is thanking its drivers after celebrating a significant milestone.
We’re told the company has delivered 15 billion packages in the U.S. As a result, they plan to recognize the efforts of its drivers by encouraging customers to send a little love their way.
Amazon says package recipients may now thank their drivers by saying, “Alexa, thank my driver.” When this happens, the driver will receive $5 at no extra charge to the customer, the company explains.
The promotion applies to the first million drivers who are thanked. The same driver may be thanked more than once.
Those without Alexa-enabled devices may thank their drivers using the Amazon or Alexa apps.
Amazon tells us the five most-thanked drivers will receive $10,000 toward any charity they desire.
