Shoppers Confidential is actually PayPal on the 15th of the following month (or the closest business day after).
The current shopper contract states: "Shoppers Confidential issues payment between the 25th and 30th of each month for any assignments completed one calendar month prior. For example if assignments are completed in January, payment will be issued on February 25th-30th." If you have switched to weekly payments, do you have a link to a new contract or info on that?
That was super cool of jpg to compile the list. They haven't posted in the forum in 3 years, though. Wonder where they are?
What a great list! GBW still has not paid out shops I completed in June. If this is a common problem then GBW could be updated.
jpgilham, thanks very much for doing this and keeping it current as best as you can. Sometimes it is important to know when a MSC pays.
Hi all: I'd like to create an updated list in google docs that can be linked here and more easily accessed/updated. Let me know if this is something people would use and I'll throw it together.
I have been trying to contact Ryan at KSS for HS Brand and Measure Consumer Perspectives about payment for a shop completed in Aug 2019 (and rated 10/10!) but haven't received a response. Any ideas on how to reach someone in the accounting department at MCP?
Who is NNS?
What about athpower? They state I have been paid, but it is not in my PayPal.
I would use it and can help with update dates on the most recent companies ive shopped with!
I would definitely use it! I am working on my own list right now and some of the dates are so hard to find on the websites!
@arist I was just coming to post the same thing. I can help or even get it started if you like.

I'll PM you and we can brainstorm!

Cirrus pays two months after the the end of the month you do your shop - if you get your invoice in on the final day of the month. Any delay in that invoice submission seems to add another month.
I have an invoice system I have created. Unfortunately, it is never perfect and I wonder if I will ever be satisfied...
As for the post about Ath, I'm wondering over here in January 2020. My November shops say paid on 12/31 but I am completely mystified as to HOW. It's pretty late for a check and there isn't anything in my PayPal or bank account.

Shopping domestic and international locations since 2003.

I think I read on a post somewhere(??) that they pay by emailing the check now by the 10th. So, November's should be paid today?? At least that's what I'm counting on as well....
I did a Mystery Shop in November 2019 for $ 50. Per the company's instructions, the payment was going to take effect midFebruary 2020 in my PayPal account. Today is April 9, 2020 and there is no deposit. I emailed the company at invoices, and my coordinator Kelly Hamilton hundreds of times; no reply. I also left many telephone messages and nobody has returned my call. Does this company pay anything? Is this a scam? What can we do to get paid?

Does anyone know when HS Brands pays? I am owed quite a bit of money for past jobs. I just received some pay for some of the jobs I did in January but not all of them.

In the recent past I have been paid between 60 and 90 days after completing an assignment. I typically do not receive payment all at once, so if I do assignments for 6 assignments for 3 clients, I am likely to be paid 3 times, one payment for each client.
I suspect that they divide the month up into thirds and then pay from there.
