I’ve seen the phrase “mystery shopper” around and been intrigued but never formally looked into it. Here I am now! Thanks for the informative article. Thanks for helping me to not get scammed as I look for ways to apply and make a little extra cash. I never would’ve thought to join a larger program. Very important stuff!

Hi Maria! I was also intrigued by that. I saw a lot of advertising but I was skeptical too until I decided to do some research on it. That is why it is very very important to do due diligence before getting involved with any program. I am glad you found my article!

WOW, I dodge the bullet right there. I did receive a while ago some of these offers for mystery shopper jobs. I got to be honest here, it was so tempting.

How much a mystery shopper earns per year?

It is a decent amount I will think to take some risk and do it.

Hi Johnny! I am telling you, their offers are very tempting!
Most mystery shoppers get paid by the job and not by the hour, so it all depends on how many assignments you will get. Shoppers may earn $8-$10 for a simple assignment, up to $20, $50, $100, or more in some cases. You can check out the Mystery Shopping Providers Association (MSPA) website at mysteryshop.org to get a better idea. Like this, it will be safer 🙂

A very interesting article concerning Mystery Shoppers. This is something I have heard advertised through the years and thought it would be fun. However, right now I would think that it would be a pretty tough sell. With everyone staying home, due to COVID, have they switched to online shopping? I would love to visit with some customer reps about the cumbersome sites and ordering systems I have encountered! While I enjoyed this review, and appreciated your insight to working as a Mystery Shopper, for me this idea is on hold right now. Have you worked as a Mystery Shopper?

Carole June 29, 2020 at 7:21 pm

Thanks Sami! I have not heard that they switch to online shopping but they might in the near future as everything is changing around us. Also, it all depends on where you are located. Right now in the USA and Canada the stores are pretty much all opened. Yes, I worked as a Mystery Shopper many many years ago, but not as a full-time job. It is pretty interesting with the right company of course.
