Travel incentives are calculated based on the round-trip distance in a straight line from your home to stores, which means you earn more the farther you travel.
Your visit locations are grouped into zones based on the round-trip distance in a straight line from your home. Each zone pays a fixed dollar amount for the round-trip travel, and is added to your total hourly pay for your scheduled visit. The farther the distance from your home, the greater the travel incentive for the round-trip travel of that visit.
ThirdChannel does not pay a standard mileage rate based on the driver's route. Your actual driving route to the destination might be different or longer due to geography or traffic.
Example: Your hourly rate is $15 and you complete a 3-hour visit, making your total visit pay $45. The round-trip distance in a straight line from your home to the store is 42 miles, making your travel incentive $8. Your total pay for the visit including travel is $53.
