Captain Amy Satterthwaite contributed 23 with Erin Bermingham finishing things off with a brisk 17 off 14 deliveries to hand the visitors a five wicket win.
English international Claire Taylor was the stand out performer for the Sparks taking four for 14 in a losing cause.
The result sees the Canterbury Magicians finish their campaign in third spot with the Otago Sparks propping up the bottom of the table.
