iSecretShop

iSecretShop is not a mystery shopping company itself, but rather a software platform that aggregates opportunities from dozens of different mystery shopping providers (MSPs). For the user, this is incredibly convenient, as it allows them to see and apply for shops from multiple agencies within a single app. Users can find assignments for dining, retail, parking, and phone audits.

The platform serves as a central hub for reputation and payments. Users can build a "shopper rating" that travels with them across different agencies using the system. It is a legitimate tool for gig workers to maximize their access to mystery shopping work without managing logins for twenty different websites.
