Maybe I will get used to using market forces platform, I have heard of shoppers getting dropped from their system. I hope that is rumor Because their shops are pretty simple it's just getting used to using the platform I'm not used to.@Tarantado wrote:
Your CPI basically lists your "contract" for the shop. For Market Force, you need to sign it for each and every shop you perform agreeing to the terms, fee agreed for, etc.
No, it's not difficult to submit shops with Market Force, in my opinion.

In the past you needed to print out the cpi and sign it by hand and scan it back in to send to them. Now you do it all online by just typing your name in.The instructions still say print it out and many still do just to keep the instructions handy in case of a problem later with the shop. I have never been asked for my printed copy of the cpi since they changed the system.
As my dad used to say, "Everything is easy once you know how to do it."@roflwofl wrote:
Everything is very, very easy with Market Force. It's a great training place for newbies because of how easy it is and because they have good instructions.

Not intended to be directed at you, sandyf, but for others who is still waste paper printing these CPI's out would be to just to save a PDF of it instead. Then you can print it out, if absolutely needed.

Your comment was a reference to the People's Court show. A shopper sued MF for not paying him for shops performed. (He lost). The MF attorney was interviewed at the end of the show by the show's announcer. It was the announcer, not the MF attorney, who said that all it takes is a pulse to be a mystery shopper. I was just setting the record straight. I'm not an MF apologist, but MF never said those words. There are a couple of threads with links to that episode of People's Court on Youtube.@Sybil2 wrote:

Just a disclosure for Tarantado and others, I myself have not printed out the cpi since they started the online thing. I have never had an issue and since the pay is so small for most of the jobs if I ever needed the cpi to prove something I probably saved more time, paper and energy by not printing them out OR saving them that I could forfeit the pay for one job. But I am not recommending my way to others. Everyone has to do what is comfortable for them.
I do the same thing. MF shops are mostly so low pay that it is usually not worth the time to dig up the proof.
