My review of Cirrus Marketing Intelligence – 5 out of 10

I’ve been with Cirrus Marketing Intelligence over 18 months now. They were founded in 1993 in Anaheim, California.

It’s been a hard relationship.

First, I’ve only done a handful of jobs in the time I’ve been registered. Second, I’ve always had to prompt them before being paid late everytime. Super annoying but I have always been paid.

With Cirrus you need to submit an invoice, which is found at the end of the guidelines for the job, at the end of the month that you do a job for them. After two more months they will directly deposit your pay into your Paypal account. They pay in USD. As I’ve already mentioned you will need to monitor the process to ensure you are paid.

That’s why I gave Cirrus 5 out of 10. Barely any jobs in my area and problems with the pay.

I’d love to hear about your your experiences with Cirrus. Please leave your comments below.

Would be great if you could say hi too in an email.

ISS – ISecretShop – 9 out of 10

It is just over two years that I’ve been with ISS.

ISecretShop is setup like Gigwalk. It is like a database that allows other mystery shopping companies to list their jobs. You would only contact ISS for technical questions about the app or web page. You would contact the MSP of the job for any questions in regards to the Mystery Shop that you requested and was approved to do.

Each job is paid on a different schedule. So you need to be up on details to know that. All completed jobs are listed under Payments as unpaid. That changes to Paid and date when your payment is deposited straight to pay pal. No requesting needed. They know you want your money.

They have many French language jobs.

They also goes through spurts with occasional quiet time. That is part of the reason why I rated them 9 out of 10. No consistency in work possibilities.

I enjoy my jobs with ISS, many repetitive high paying audits that I always snag my maximum 10 allowed jobs assigned at a time. A second part that contributed to the whole point deduction. I don’t like being limited in jobs I can request. Especially when accepting a regular very low paying job counts as six jobs for the time it’s accepted. Ridiculous.

You can make money here. Make sure you have notifications on and you’ll know instantly of new listings.

I’d love to hear about your own ISS experiences or just say hi. I’d also love to hear from other Canadian Mystery Shoppers!

 

 

Sutter Marketing Mystery Shop – 8 out of 10

Sutter Marketing Mystery Shop – 8 out of 10

Sutter Marketing is one of my newer Mystery Shop companies. They started in Palatine, IL in 1976, expanding to Mystery Shopping in 2000. So, they have been around awhile.

I have only done approximately 12 jobs for them within the last nine months. All my jobs have been in fast food so far.

They have paid me on time and without prompting everytime and I have always been paid in American dollars.

This was why I gave them 8 out of 10 for their consistency and accuracy. They lost their two points for just not being very busy. I always have high hopes that companies will pick up more contracts.

I’d love to hear your stories about Sutter Marketing and your mystery shopping experiences in general.

Bare International – 9 out of 10

Bare International – 9 out of 10

Bare International Mystery Shopping

Bare International is an American Mystery Shop company founded in 1987 in Fairfax, Virginia. The company has contracts here in Canada and they seek new Canadian shoppers.

I have been with Bare International about 2 years now and I have never had any issues, at all. I have always been paid on time, without prompting and they pay through PayPal, like most mystery shop companies do these days. I have always been paid in American dollars. Anytime I have had a question, the schedulers have gotten back to me immediately or within a few hours.

I rated Bare International nine out of ten based on their consistency, friendliness and helpfulness. They lost the point because they’re just not that busy in my area.

I’d love to hear from other mystery shoppers, say hi please.

Bounty Mystery Shopping – 7 out of 10

Bounty Mystery Shopping – 7 out of 10

I’ve been using Bounty for about two years now. They mostly list mystery shops, though there have been surveys, as well.

Bounty is ran by Twentify. A Istanbul-based company. Their getbounty app connects Canadians to local mystery shops.

Their app offers the shortest amount of time to complete a task of any mystery shop company I’m involved with. Only one hour. Preparing ahead of time is limited, since travel time isn’t aways completely calculable.

After your job has been approved, you’ll need to request payment to receive it. Which is sent to you through paypal.

I have always received my pay and the staff at Twentify have always been quick and friendly to respond anytime I’ve had a question.

Because of the limited jobs, having to request your money and the only one hour to complete jobs, I gave Bounty a 7.

Let me know your Bounty experiences or just say hi. I’d love to hear from other Canadian Mystery Shoppers.
