Yes. Nice folks, pay as scheduled (which is reasonably quick), I never have issues with their reports or their shops. The work is simple and straightforward though there is not a heck of a lot in my area, just cells at a couple of locations.
I have. I have been paid on time. They pay the month after assignment is completed. Cell phone shops in my area. I have to wait 60 days in order to re-shop the locations near me.

This, exactly.
Good company, great schedulers, easy to work with. Pay fairly quickly and just recently started paying via PayPal.

Did my first report for ACE. Loved it! The employee did a great job. Am looking forward to my second one.
I have done several shops for them. The reports are not difficult, and they pay as promised.
I've done shops for them and they are great. They pay on time and the assignments aren't difficult. The scheduler in my area is very nice as well.

Sincerely,

I have done quite a good number of shops for them. I do not regret it one bit. Plan to keep shopping on behalf of this company. Serious guys , nice schedulers and editors. Very human approach. Payment is timely too!
Great company, but before doing shops be sure you know that they have only one payment method: PayQuicker. You will need to create an account with PayQuicker in order to be paid. As of Fall 2011 PayQuicker became their only method of payment. After researching, I determined that I did not want to open an account with PayQuicker, so, although I like ACE, I have not accepted shops since Fall 2011. If at any time they decide on other payment alternatives, I'll be right back in line to see what shops they have available.
Ok fine, but there are many posts on the payquicker issue. I have had no problem with it, in fact, as I have said many times they indeed pay quicker into your bank account than paypal. ACE is a fine and reputable co,
Not to turn this into another thread about PQ, but are you saying they are faster than 1 to 2 business days?

I choose not to give PayPal or PayQuicker my checking account number, so my payments from Ace accrue until I request a paper check from PQ (there's a $2.50 fee for requesting it, but I prefer that to giving out my checking account number). For a shop done on 3-15, Ace paid my PQ account on 4-17; for a shop done 4-12, it was 5-16 and for a shop done 5-4, it was 6-15. I'm happy with that timeline.
Lisa, yes they are faster than the 1-2 business days. When I get my email that I have been paid, it is already in my PayQuicker account. Never had a problem yet with it.

Also, enjoy working with the staff at ACE also. Friendly and get back to you right away.

@Pat.... that's information that people may appreciate. I wasn't aware you could accrue it like that, but that is a great alternative to people not shopping for them because of the PQ issue.

Thank you for posting that information. Maybe others knew that, I didn't!
Is that different than PayPal? I've never had PayQuicker, but when I get the e-mail that I've been sent money to PayPal, when I go to look, the money is already there. I didn't realize it didn't work that way for everyone.

Pat, that's an interesting idea for people who don't want to provide their bank account to PayQuicker. Thanks for posting it.
My question was not how it worked from the MSC to PQ, rather how quickly it moved from PQ to a bank account. Originally PayPal was usually the third business day, now it is the second business day and occasionally the very next day.

Oh, I see, I'm such a spendthrift I usually spend it straight from PayPal....I've done only a couple of transfers to my bank account.....
I run everything through my bank account for ease of record-keeping. I could get reports from PayPal as well, but it's easier to have everything in one place.

Yes I got your question. I guess I wil have to check tomorrow and see if my paypal stuff is coming quicker(: But anyway payquicker is fine. I am thinking free market competition is working.
Lisa, I don't transfer it to my bank account, I have a card I can access it with (VISA). It's very convenient and it is there when I receive the email I have been paid, like clockwork.

I think it is great you can let the total build up then get one check for the amount and only pay one check fee if you don't want to give out bank info.
I just received my first payment from Ace Mystery Shopping via Pay Quicker. The program is fine. It has a user friendly website.

You can access funds for free either through the VISA card they sent me within two days of signing up, or transfer to your bank account. There are no fees for transferring to your bank account.

While I like Paypal, I feel comfortable with Pay Quicker also. Maybe the competition is a good thing.
Just got one today and totally agree. In fact I wrote almost exactly this post a while back.

Great idea for those who don't want to transfer funds or give out their bank information. You can also get a debit card and use the money directly from there. There's no fee involved in that and no need to let your money sit for days.

If I transfer my money from PayQuicker to my bank account before 2 p.m., I get it the next business day. With PayPal, I think how quickly you get it depends on where you're located. Or something. I don't know what but I get monthly payments from one company through PayPal and it takes three to four business days every freakin' time. I'm jealous when I read about one to two business days like you mentioned. I heard the company is switching to PayQuicker and I'd be a happy camper if they do. I should probably get a new PayPal debit card anyway. I never got a new one when it expired I guess because I rarely used it but I wasn't editing for the other company then (not ACE). It'd be nice now.

Edited to add: Angie, ACE editor. Since I didn't mention it before.
