You show up, you know the products, you make the sale. SparkPlug makes sure you get rewarded for it. SparkPlug connects you to everything happening at your store — competitions, training, goals, and the rewards on the other side of them. No more wondering if you hit your numbers. No more chasing down managers for updates. It's all right here. Sparks are the sales incentives your store or favorite brands run. See where you stand on the leaderboard, what you're competing for, and how close you are to winning — all in real time. Courses are product trainings from the brands you sell every day. Learn what makes something worth recommending and sell it with confidence. Snaps are short-form content — think product highlights, announcements, or anything brands and retailers want you to see. Events keeps you in the loop on brand activations and in-store happenings so you can show up prepared. When you earn a reward, payouts are handled automatically. No chasing, no delays — you hit your goal, you get your reward. The SparkPlug app is now available on your phone. Check your Sparks between customers, knock out a Course during a slow hour, see where you rank before your shift ends.
