PrestoShopper

PrestoShopper (Presto Map) is an aggregation platform for the mystery shopping industry. It allows independent shoppers to see available assignments from dozens of different mystery shopping companies (MSCs) on a single map. Instead of logging into twenty different scheduler sites, shoppers can use the Presto app to find work nearby.

The platform streamlines the process of finding, claiming, and submitting shops. Payments are often faster on Presto ("Insta-Pay") compared to traditional MSC payment cycles. It is a legitimate and essential tool for serious mystery shoppers to maximize their route efficiency and earnings.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do I get paid by Presto?

It depends on the shop type. For "Presto Insta-Shops," you are paid directly through the Presto system. For other shops listed on the map (Sassie shops), you are paid by the individual mystery shopping company according to their specific payment terms.

2. How fast is the payment?

Presto Insta-Shops can be paid out remarkably fast, often within 48 hours to 1 week after approval. This is significantly faster than the industry standard of 30-45 days.

3. Is the app free?

Yes, the PrestoShopper app is free to download and use. They do not charge shoppers a fee to find work; they make money by charging the mystery shopping companies to list their assignments.

4. Do I need to sign up with every company?

For "Sassie" shops listed on the map, you will usually need to be registered with that specific mystery shopping company to accept the assignment. However, Presto makes it easy to see who is hiring and directs you to the registration page.

5. What kind of shops are there?

You can find shops for restaurants, gas stations, grocery stores, apartment complexes, and retail brands. The map view helps you cluster these shops to create a profitable route for the day.
