Marketforce $0 Pay Jobs

February 19, 2021 10:16PM
Can someone tell me what the Marketforce jobs are that show $0 pay and reimbursement of $5. I am confused, you still have to do a report and the work correctly? But they are not paying you and want it for free?

That's for those of us that like to work for free. New form of craziness that started after the pandemic. You can work all you want. Of course, it's mostly for nothing.

Search this section for a similar title. Shoppers typically wait until there is a fee to take the shop.

Ha no; never. There were even some places in the past, that offered "attaboy's" as incentives.

Yeah, I did that job today, but for $16 plus $5.

Wow, second time I've seen someone get the shop for this client at $16. As I mentioned in the dedicated thread for this client, I've never done better than $12 and I had to be visiting a rural area in another state to get that.

I jumped for joy when I got it for $15 several times. I love flakes.

Hmmmmm. They bounced me years ago for being a few hours late with a report. Thanks, MF!

What actually is the job?

I just completed a shop a good distance away (that is usually $9 fee local). Occasionally I would get it approved for $55 fee. With fuel costs rising I asked for $60 the last several times and was denied. The last time they approved the $60 fee. It takes persistence.

Cindy - I assume this shop is the one mentioned in the other discussion by the store name.

I'm curious how many pictures the $5 quick nicotine audit requires....

The automated scheduler sent out an email offering $3 over the listed fee.

Why would anyone work for free? I see $5 shops as well - quick audit! Shoppers need to read the assignment, possibly waste ink/paper to print out something, drive to the location, perform the audit, drive back, report the assignment. Add up the time and place a value on it.

I don't normally work for free but today I'm out all day and am hungry - I'd be happy to do a reimbursement only restaurant shop today but there aren't even any burger shops this week!

Honey Brown, here is what was offered: There is no fee to start with and they offered a $3 premium on top of the fee. HUH?
Cindy, this shop is for a large retailer of outmoded, unsold or close to expiring goods. I don't think I can say its name here.
