Amazon says it is investing another $1.9 billion in its delivery service partner (DSP) program for 2027. The company says the additional funding is intended to support delivery associate pay and safety initiatives. Amazon also says drivers will earn a national average of nearly $24 an hour under the program.
Amazon notes that how money is used may vary by DSP and geography, because each DSP decides how best to invest in its business and teams. The PYMNTS.com report adds that Amazon frames the move as part of ongoing safety efforts, citing improvements such as fewer serious crashes, alongside changes to compensation.
