That's simply not true. I buy stuff over $8 and get reimbursed up to $8 per purchase. The only time they'll reimburse for more than $8 on a non-salon shop is if the minimum CHARGE is more than $8.

Correct for me too. If I go a restaurant, my spouse and I decide upon what we will order and do not worry about the price. For the one just approved, we purchased a chicken taco meal each for $12.99. I will be reimbursed $8 for each receipt.

Still waiting on two shops I did last weekend to be approved. I was kind of ticked they took the rest down because there was a cluster I had planned on doing over the weekend. The area is a little further away but me and my daughter were ready to tag team those. There were also two of them that were $25. I do hope they all come back.

I still see the $25 shop near me. The remaining $14 shops were there earlier but are gone now. None that I want to do, anyway.

Still waiting for approval on a shop from last Monday. Everything else is approved and paid.

Wow, so this is just another example of how inconsitnt the reviewers are! Because I had a shop rejected last year when I ordered something on the menu over $8. (I believe it was $12.) I was expecting to get $8 reimbursement and pay the different. The reviewer said since there was something like a $5 croissant available in the menu photo, I was supposed to order that since it is under $8. So they rejected the shop altogether. I even appealed it and they upheld reviewer's decision. So ever since then, I completely avoid places I can't find something under $8, unless i feel like I can REALLY "prove it" that there isn't anything lower. That's a lot of side salads and baked potatoes I didn't need ????

Also, i my shops in this category have been taking 6-8 days to get approved... that's the longest its EVER been. I wonder what's going on over there. Meanwhile, they oddly removed the check box warning when you pick up the pin letting you know it would take longer than usual to get approved...

ITZASHOPPER,

I've recently experienced several instances where the person reviewing and rating my shop has no common sense.

They have returned the shop to me for things like guidelines say, "lf you don't get a business card, write the employee's name on a piece of paper". Rejection, "Please upload a picture of the business card". "Here's your sign!"

Ugh, I just got a 1099-NEC from Presto and based on the fact that it ends in 51 cents (not to mention that there's no way I did $600 in shops for them), they're reporting our reimbursement as income.

Yep. Keeping records so vital!

Plot twist - If there is any item with a visible price, even if it is over $8, you must buy that item (and apparently eat the additional cost) not an unpriced item within the reimbursement. Reimbursement is still $8 only. One of the newer, for me at least, causes for rejection.

i thought the guidlines said if there are no items under 8 you can go up to $20.

Finally got my shop from last Monday approved this morning. That was the last one I was waiting for.

Not on this most recent round.

I saw a bunch of old shops pop up again for a moment, then disappeared again. Presto is so annoying.

They seem to be back to normal timing on reviewing these. I did one on Thursday, and it was just approved.

I don't believe IPSOS is trying to rip us off. I have made tons of money from them over the years and they pay rather quickly compated to some. I agree that these Debit card shops are being rejected erroneously due to training issues on their part. I received no response with a reason when declined a second time. I am sutting here with a cash receipt and credit card receipt so zero reason to decline the job. I am trying to find a manager name for escalation.

Hi, can you pleaee send me a name for an escalation point for this Visa Debit job.

I did one today and it was approved within 2 hours.
