Shopper Now

These guys are amazing.

This was my second place, which I joined the instant I finished my first shop with my first place, Personally Recommended, just to compare the two, and Shopper Now wins in every comparison mode.

They pay $22 for shops with compensation and $26 for shops without.

They even gave me a $300 job as an interceptor, which meant that I went down to a store and asked people to complete a survey. That was $300 across 2 days, 3 hours per day, or 6 hours total, but that's $50 per hour. Pretty good! I was meant to do 2 intercept jobs but when I went to do the 2nd one it was too hot, 47 degrees, and they wanted us to wear all-black as our uniform, and I reckon we'd have literally died if we'd done it.

Assigners tend to be pretty automatic and I don't think I ever talked to anyone, while evaluators are very hands-off. I've only had a couple of minor notes a couple of times from evaluators when they weren't sure what I meant and wanted me to clarify some ambiguities.

The big problem is that they don't always have many jobs, and then they come in clumps. So you can have 30 jobs suddenly and then have none for ages. They also often don't give you much notice for the best jobs, and you have to do them that day or the day after, which sucks.

They also make you do a quiz for each job you take to make sure that you understand the requirements. But if you fail you can just redo it again immediately and keep redoing it until you get it 100% right. It's pretty awesome as a way to train you.

Nonetheless, they are a great company and I highly recommend them.

Pros: Good pay, automatic assessors, low evaluator interaction, professional service

Cons: Have either too much work or none for ages and often don't get much warning about it.

That's great news! It's good that you had an excellent experience. We might all be your shopper competition someday, depending on much worse it gets over here in the US!
I used to refer to this one as the good one and personally recommended as the bad one, but then I found realise online, which is the much worse one, and human experiences, which is the even better one. I still like this one though. They might not give the big bucks that some do (though the $300 intercept job was pretty good) but they are good quality and really respectful. Maybe I would have put up with Realise Online if I thought that it was all like that, but these guys proved that there are better options. I forgot another issue is that they don't list on your profile your old jobs, so I'm not sure how many I've done. Maybe 9? Maybe 12? I'd like it if I knew for sure. I don't actually mind that they are a bit automated and there's very little human interaction, as it makes it simpler.
