DashSharing vs Soneil Spark
Two home-charging reward programs for Ontario, side by side. Both pay you for charging your EV at home, funded through Canada's Clean Fuel Regulations credits. Here is how they differ on what they pay, what they ask of you and how they pay out, from each program's own website, checked daily.
EV Perks is an independent comparison site and doesn't run either program. To join one, check your charger's eligibility or ask about a payment, contact DashSharing or Soneil Spark directly.
The short answer
- At 300 kWh a month they pay about the same: $396 a year each, once past any starting tier.
- Over five years, after any charger you would buy from the program and any deposit still held: DashSharing $1,860, Soneil Spark $1,918.
- What you need. DashSharing supplies the charger against a $450 refundable deposit. Soneil Spark supplies the charger against a $299 refundable deposit.
- Payout. DashSharing: paid at a balance threshold, minimum $100. Soneil Spark: paid at a balance threshold, minimum $50.
- Where. DashSharing is available only in Ontario. Soneil Spark is available across Canada.
Can you join both? Not with the same charger, as a rule: each kWh earns a credit only once, and most programs require the charger to be registered with them alone. More in the FAQ.
