Earn More as a Mystery Shopper: The iShopFor Ipsos Difference

Many Mystery Shoppers encounter low-paying assignments, delayed payments, and inconsistent opportunities. At iShopFor Ipsos, we believe professional Shoppers deserve fair compensation, reliable payments, and ongoing access to rewarding assignments.

As part of Ipsos, one of the world's leading market research companies, we provide Shoppers with access to established client programs, professional support, and a steady flow of opportunities across Canada.

This article explains why thousands of Canadian Shoppers choose iShopFor Ipsos when they want to maximize their earnings and build long-term success as Mystery Shoppers.

7 Reasons Why It Pays to be an iShopFor Ipsos Shopper

Reason #1: We Pay Competitive Rates

Your Time Is Valuable, and We Treat It That Way

Unlike many Mystery Shopping companies in Canada, Ipsos considers preparation time, reporting time, follow-up requirements, and travel when pricing assignments. We look at the entire Shopper journey from end to end and account for the full time investment required to complete an assignment.

We also regularly review compensation levels across the Mystery Shopping industry to ensure our rates remain among the strongest available in Canada. Rather than relying on one-size-fits-all pricing, we align compensation with assignment complexity, time commitment, location, required expertise, and Shopper demand. We also ensure assignments are priced fairly relative to one another, with more involved projects paying proportionately more than quick and simple tasks.

In addition to assignment fees, we account for travel requirements and offer additional incentives when needed to help ensure challenging Shops are completed on time. Our philosophy is simple: quality Shoppers deserve fair compensation for the value they provide.

Reason #2: More Opportunities Mean More Income

A Steady Stream of Assignments Helps Shoppers Earn More

As one of Canada's largest Mystery Shopping providers, we offer opportunities that few Mystery Shopping companies in Canada can match. Completing thousands of Shops every month, our Shoppers have access to opportunities across every province.

We service a variety of industries such as retail, restaurants, automotive, financial services, telecommunications, oil and gas, and hospitality. This diversity means Shoppers can find assignments that match their interests, schedules, and locations while creating more opportunities to earn throughout the year.

Reason #3: Bonuses and Incentives Reward Top Performers

High Performers Have the Potential to Earn Even More

While we do our best to ensure a positive shopping experience no matter what program you work on, we know that not all Shops are created equal. There are certain Shops, like those in high-end restaurants or at event centres, that are simply more fun to do. There are also others that offer very high compensation because of the amount of work involved, and many of our Shoppers jump at the chance for the big payday.

With Shops of this nature, we reward our top performers by giving them access to these opportunities before they are put on the board for everyone. So, the more high-quality Shops you complete, the more opportunities you will unlock as a Shopper on our panel.

Also, with Canada being as large as it is, we often have exciting opportunities for Shoppers who are willing to travel to complete Shops. These route Shoppers are also compensated for their time traveling between locations.

Reason #4: Fast, Reliable Payments

Getting Paid Shouldn't Be Complicated

At Ipsos, we believe in the importance of everyone being paid on time. This is why we offer bi-weekly payments that are consistently processed according to schedule.

Our payment process is straightforward and dependable. We process payments end of day every second Monday with our Shoppers being paid via PayPal by the end of the week, except in exceptional circumstances. This means that, like a part-time job, you can rely on your payments coming in every 2 weeks.

Reason #5: We Invest in Our Shoppers' Success

We Help New and Experienced Shoppers Thrive

Obtaining quality is our number one priority for our clients and we understand the importance of ensuring our Shoppers are well-informed and confident when they enter the field. This means that, for every Shop we complete, we provide our Shoppers with comprehensive Shopper guidelines that clearly outline all the details the Shoppers need to be successful.

We also, via our platform, have interesting and engaging Shopper training videos that go beyond what traditional guidelines can do, containing videos and interactive quizzes to test your knowledge before you complete the Shop.

Finally, we have a dedicated support team available to our Shoppers via email. Every project has a listed name of someone you can contact directly for any project needs.

With our training resources and dedicated support team, we provide the help Shoppers need to complete assignments accurately the first time, reducing revisions, preventing rejections, and helping them qualify for more opportunities and higher-paying assignments.
