Refresh The Amazon Flex App Regularly<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Unfortunately, Amazon Flex doesn\u2019t automatically refresh the \u201cOffers\u201d tab. So, one of the most basic way to get more blocks for Amazon Flex is to watch the offers tab like a hawk<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>You have to manually refresh the page in order to see the most recent offers that have been added.<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to refresh regularly and at different hours of the day to find some hidden gems that are not yet claimed by anyone else.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For best practices try refreshing a few times in a row, at least twice a day<\/strong>. This has been helping tons of drivers land more blocks on Amazon Flex.<\/p>\n<p>Some drivers argue that there are certain hours during the day that Amazon Flex releases their blocks.<\/p>\n<p>The hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. are apparently popular hours for blocks to go live. While this can be true in certain areas, your peak hours may vary based on your location.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the day, test out which hours seem to get a heavy flow of blocks for you and start optimizing your scheduling during those times.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Use_Preferred_Scheduling\"><\/span><strong>2. Use Preferred Scheduling<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Another awesome way to quickly get Amazon Flex blocks is to leverage the new preferred scheduling feature<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Preferred scheduling is a new feature that's part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/flex.amazon.com\/amazonflexrewards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon Flex Rewards system<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13047 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Amazon-Flex-preferred-scheduling.png\" alt=\"Amazon-Flex-preferred-scheduling\" width=\"650\" height=\"271\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With this rewards system, you unlock various driver perks as you level up your Amazon Flex driver account. You earn points for every delivery and block you complete that contribute to leveling up.<\/p>\n<p>You can reach up to level four, and reaching level two unlocks preferred scheduling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Preferred scheduling lets you set your preferred Amazon pickup station, delivery days, and time of days you want to deliver at<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If blocks come up that match your preferences, you see a &#8220;Rewards Reserved Offer&#8221; in the app, which gives you priority over other drivers to claim that block.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a chance you already have enough points to get to level 2, so check your settings and see if you can get that upgrade!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Claim_Open_Amazon_Flex_Blocks_Quickly\"><\/span><strong>3. Claim Open Amazon Flex Blocks Quickly<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>One key tip to get more Amazon Flex blocks is to claim an open block as soon as you possibly can.<\/p>\n<p>Blocks display a start and end time plus estimated earnings, so you should be able to quickly judge if a block is worth it or not and if it fits your schedule.<\/p>\n<p>And, for open blocks that start several days in the future, it's a good idea to just claim them the second you can.<\/p>\n<p>This is because you can cancel an Amazon Flex block without penalties as long as you forfeit the block at least 45 minutes before it starts.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, if you claim a block within 45 minutes of a block starting, you have 5 minutes to cancel it without penalty.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The bottom line is you can refresh the offers tab and claim blocks the second they're available<\/strong>. Once you claim a block, decide if you want to keep it or forfeit it back to the pool of available drivers.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Drive_During_Peak_Times\"><\/span><strong>4. Drive During Peak Times<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you're still wondering how to get more offers on Amazon Flex, one simple tip you can try is to drive at busy time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>One thing that Amazon Flex is never afraid to admit is when they\u2019re short on delivery drivers. This means that during busy periods, Amazon naturally posts more blocks and can also pay drivers more for each block<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11421 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Amazon-Flex-driver.jpg\" alt=\"Amazon-Flex-driver\" width=\"648\" height=\"325\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, if you're struggling to get Amazon Flex blocks, make sure you check the app during the busiest delivery periods of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Peak times on Amazon Flex include holiday seasons, Black Friday, weekends, and Mondays. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are usually the slowest days on the app.<\/p>\n<p>While you might not be able to only take on peak times as a driver, you should definitely take advantage of those times when you can.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of the simplest but most effective <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/amazon-flex-tips\/\">tips for Amazon Flex<\/a>, so give it a try!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Take_Amazon_Flex_Reserved_Blocks\"><\/span><strong>5. Take Amazon Flex Reserved Blocks<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another excellent tip to get Amazon Flex blocks quickly is to sign up for reserved blocks as often as possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Amazon Flex reserved blocks are a bit different from normal Amazon Flex blocks because they are specifically reserved for your schedule<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In the app, you can update your availability within the calendar to let the app know when you can accept an offer.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s say for example, you select that you can handle a job on Friday, anywhere between 1-4 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>If an offer for a block comes up for Friday between 1:30-3:30 p.m., you have a high likelihood of having that block reserved for your acceptance.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s best to update your schedule regularly if your week changes often in order to get reserved blocks during times that you can actually handle them.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Accept_Different_Delivery_Types\"><\/span><strong>6. Accept Different Delivery Types<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>One final tip for geting more Amazon Flex offers is to accept more delivery types.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There are a few different types of deliveries you can accept on Amazon Flex<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Amazon.com packages<\/strong>: Delivery blocks are usually between 3-6 hours<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Prime Now packages<\/strong>: Delivery blocks are usually between 2-4 hours<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Amazon Fresh<\/strong>: delivery blocks are usually between 2-4 hours<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Store Orders<\/strong>: delivery blocks are usually between 2-4 hours<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Instant Offers<\/strong>: delivery blocks are usually between 15-45 minutes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13048 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Amazon-Flex-block-offers.jpg\" alt=\"Amazon-Flex-block-offers\" width=\"300\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Amazon.com packages are your everyday package deliveries and are the most popular. However, the rest of the package types have their own ways of being picked up and delivered.<\/p>\n<p>Because of this, some non Amazon.com deliveries can pay more or less. You might also find that certain delivery types are more or less desirable in your market<\/p>\n<p>Either way, accepting more delivery types is a straightforward way to get more Amazon Flex blocks because you have more options.<\/p>\n<p>This is especially true for Prime Now blocks since these blocks are much faster than Logistics blocks, so you can claim them quickly, complete them, and make some fast cash. You have to act fast and get the blocks while they're open, but this definitely one of the best ways to get Amazon Flex blocks quickly if logistics blocks are always takten.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, be sure to keep an eye out for different names in the \u201cOffers\u201d tab that indicate one of the other delivery types.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Extra Reading &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/how-to-make-1000-a-week-with-uber-eats\/\">How To Make $1K A Week With Uber Eats<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_You_Use_Amazon_Flex_Block_Grabbers\"><\/span><strong>Should You Use Amazon Flex Block Grabbers?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re not familiar with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/amazon-flex-bots\/\">Amazon Flex block grabbers<\/a>, they\u2019re essentially apps that automatically accept offers for you.<\/p>\n<p>These apps work by refreshing the offers tab for you and claiming open blocks the second they're available. The benefit of these apps is to have a software accept blocks faster than you can manually do it with your hands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But, should you use Amazon Flex block grabbers?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well, according to Amazon, using third-party software to get blocks quickly violates terms of service and can result in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/amazon-flex-deactivation\/\">Amazon Flex deactivation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, a lot of drivers use Amazon block grabbers anyway and find great success with them.<\/p>\n<p>The main way people get caught is by using\u00a0an auto clicking app that accepts blocks way too quickly. These end up getting flagged because they\u2019re too fast to be human.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, you need to decide if using bots or block grabbers to get more blocks is worth the risk.<\/p>\n<p>If you make money with other gig apps like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/is-doordash-worth-it\/\">DoorDash<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/is-instacart-worth-it\/\">Instacart<\/a>, it could be worth risking this tactic on Amazon Flex.<\/p>\n<p>But if Amazon Flex is your main gig app, it's probably not worth the ban risk.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Extra Reading &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/how-much-can-you-make-a-week-with-doordash\/\">How Much Can You Make Per Week With DoorDash?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Popular_Amazon_Flex_Block_Grabbers\"><\/span><strong>Popular Amazon Flex Block Grabbers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you decide to use an Amazon Flex block grabber, there's actually several popular apps on the market right now.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some common block grabbers drivers use and recommend.<\/p>\n<p>Just keep in mind: some of these apps require paying for a subscription, and many require giving your Amazon Flex driver app password as well.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Flexomatic\"><\/span><strong>1.

Because blocks vary in hours, this means you generally earn anywhere between $30-$100 per block<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>However, Amazon only pays per &#8220;scheduled&#8221; hour. This means if you're slow or your block takes longer, you're not compensated for that extra driving time.<\/p>\n<p>You can request payment adjustments if issues like warehouse pickups or Amazon warehouse workers making mistakes cause you to drive for longer. However, payment adjustments aren't very common.<\/p>\n<p>You can also read my post on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmonkey.com\/how-much-does-amazon-flex-pay-per-block\/\">how much Amazon Flex pays per block<\/a> for a more in-depth explanation.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_Amazon_Flex_Block_Bots_Work\"><\/span><strong>Do Amazon Flex Block Bots Work?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Most Amazon Flex block bots work, and this is why block grabbing programs are so popular.
