Tell Alexa to thank your Amazon delivery driver and see what happens...

You can simply use your echo or go to Amazon app.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Amazon deliveries have become the norm. If you weren’t ordering items to be delivered before COVID, you absolutely are doing that now. How do you say thank you to your delivery driver? You just tell Alexa to do it for you!

Amazon started a ‘Thank You’ program on December 7, 2022. All you have to do is tell Alexa to thank your delivery person and Amazon will give them a five-dollar tip and you don’t have to spend a dime.

After delivery, you simply say, ‘Alexa, thank my driver’ and your delivery driver will receive five dollars at no cost to you

Amazon is doing this for the first one million thank you’s received. Deliveries are only eligible for this promotion for 14 days after the delivery is made. 

WHAT IF YOU DON’T HAVE AN ECHO?

You can do it right on your phone, no problem.

Open up your Amazon app on your phone

Tap the Alexa icon on the bottom right of the screen.

Tap to enable your microphone and say the words, ‘Alexa, thank my driver’

HEY, ALEXA, DON’T SPOIL CHRISTMAS!

Alexa wakes you up, tells you the forecast, and reminds you about the plans you have later that day, but Alexa can spoil Christmas too. How?

Alexa also announces the delivery and the item out loud.

Let's not spoil the surprises, so to stop this from happening:
