Hey all! So I'm a bit confused. I couldn't find any actual step by step instructions so I tried to just feel it out myself. I found a really brief set of Recently Posted listings (is there a whole/complete.list?) And I tapped on one assignment, was shown Accepted but I don't have anything listed in my Assigned Shops. Is there something I do next? Thanks!

Hello,

Here is how the system works:

Once you log into iSecretShop, go to the "Available Shops" page, and browse the shops that are posted.

When you see the one you are interested in, you click "View Details" and it will open a pop-up window with all the information on the shop.

Then, you can either self-assign that shop, or click "Request shop" to submit a request for a specific date. The schedulers are frequently reviewing these requests, so it should be approved soon.

*If you are prompted to sign the iSecretShop Terms of Use or the Mystery Shopping Provider's contract first, you can do so on the "Provider Contracts and Policies" page.

Once you have a shop assigned to you, you can always view it on the "Assigned Shops" page - there you can see all shops you have assigned, and can click "Complete Shop" on any of them to see the full shop information, the shop instructions, the questions, or/and fill out the shop report.

If you have any questions about a particular shop, you can always contact the MSP that posted it, and their schedulers/editors will be happy to help.

When you are done filling out the shop report - you click "Finalize Shop" to submit it - it will be reviewed to editors and either approved, or returned to you for additional information (if so, it will appear back in your "Assigned Shops" page).

After the shop is approved, you can communicate with the MSP regarding your payment for that shop.

I also advise going to iSSprep.com and doing courses like "iSS 101" and "iSS 102" - these will not only provide you with additional knowledge, but will also gran you shopper points, boosting your rank rather quickly.

I hope this helps!
