If Intelli-shop has a $25 shop expense for a carry-out pizza shop, is it possible with their restricted toppings to get anywhere near that amount? In my area, a two-topping carry-out pizza goes for around $16. (I could also most likely find a coupon to bring that price... Continue Reading

Intellishop Money Transfer Shops

Faster Pay with IntelliShop?
May 02, 2012
I haven't done a shop for IntelliShop for quite some time -- partly because of their incredibly long pay cycle. However, I noted the following statement in a recent email from them: "**Expedited Pay! These shops will now be paid the month following the month in which you perform the... Continue Reading
IntelliShop ratings
May 01, 2012
I've been doing several IntelliShop shops the last two months, mostly because they seem to have a lot of work in my area. The narratives are kind of a PITA, but I'm getting used to them. My reports have been scoring eights to tens, with a nine average. All of... Continue Reading
Intellishop Question
April 28, 2012
I did a car dealer shop and found this statement on my reviewer comments. "We insert a few "integrity" questions into each report that have answers which, if chosen, show us that you did not faithfully and honestly fill out the report. Since you answered all of these incorrectly, we will... Continue Reading
Intellishop Car Shops
March 27, 2012
I just accepted my very first shop with Intellishop. It was bonused so the fee is $30. After doing $14 car shops for Bestmark, I'm pretty darn happy about the fee. My question is - how are the reports for their car shops? Do they require... Continue Reading

Anyone else having trouble getting on there tonight? I get this and more errors: Warning: Incorrect information in file: './intellis_drupal/access.frm' query:... Continue Reading

Dear Intelli-Shop: Your forms are heinous
December 15, 2011
For the sake of us shoppers, will you PLEASE have more printer-friendly forms? Why should shoppers have to print ALL departments' criteria if we're only going into that appliance/electronics store to shop ONE item? One size does not fit all. What? Copy and paste it into Word, then delete what's not relevant... Continue Reading
Oil changes now paying $100 from Intellishop
December 14, 2011
So if you drive to some out of the way place for an oil change, isn't that a bit of a tip off? Why would someone from my town, close enough to several of the dealerships, drive out into the boondocks and get an oil change unless I was a... Continue Reading

Intellishop, blaming the shopper for the associates behavior
November 28, 2011
I completed a shop for Intellishop. It should have taken no more than 30 minutes on site. I spent a full hour giving the staff every possible opportunity to provide needed answers. The associates response when I asked for his name was to tell me I had a business card... Continue Reading

Intellishop questions (pay)
November 10, 2011
I signed up for Intellishop recently. I like their site a lot so far. It seems to have a lot of shops. I have also done some Bestmark mystery shops. The Bestmark shops I did paid me in 2-3 weeks. I just looked on Intellishop's website and the FAQ says... Continue Reading
Intellishop: Flake citation and a score of "1"
November 04, 2011
Thus far, I have been quite happy with Intellishop. I do a credit union that I really like, I get good scores, and I've been pretty happy. That may be changing today. I took 3 phone shops (car dealerships), $5 each, because they said "easy, short" blah, blah, blah. And of... Continue Reading

Intellishop
July 07, 2011
It seems like the consensus of this company is that they are a reliable company, the pay is a little low but fair, but it could take 60-90 to get paid. I was just curious to know if anyone from their company has come out and explained why it take... Continue Reading

June 25, 2011
Hello! I had an early morning car service appointment run late. I am scheduled to perform a mystery shop at a local Infiniti dealer by 1pm today (6/25), but I obviously can't complete by a time that has already passed. The dealership is open until 6pm, so I can... Continue Reading

Has anyone noticed that the shop log on Intellishop has changed, so now it only shows pending jobs, and doesn't show history? Does anyone know if there is a way to see my history? Is this just a cosmic thing that happened to me and nobody else?... Continue Reading

Grr, just need to blow off a little steam. I've been systematically going through my company list, logging in and making sure my cell phone number is current. I log in to Intelli Shop and find a flake citation that I flaked on a brake inspection shop! This was a last minute shop... Continue Reading
Intellishop
July 10, 2009
Anyone else work for them? I've done a bunch of their shops now and have pretty much decided it's just not worth it. They expect you to write a novel about a simple little cell phone inquiry that pays $11. The only shop I've done with them that was... Continue Reading
