What exactly is mystery shopping? A shopper is an individual that is sent out at the request of one of our clients to anonymously evaluate their products and services according to standards agreed upon by management. Our clients range from restaurants, resorts, and hotels to banks, car dealerships, and even retail outlets. Our Phantom Shoppers are rewarded for performing this service by receiving reimbursements for the dinner check, the hotel stay, tips, fees or any other expenses they incur related to the businesses they are shopping. In some cases, the shopper is also paid a fee for performing this task.

So you want to become a Phantom Shopper?

There are a few simple things you must do before we proceed. First and foremost, understand that becoming one of our mystery shoppers does not make you an employee of Phantom Shoppers, but rather you become an independent contractor hired on a job for job basis. The frequency by which you are assigned to work will be based on your availability, the quality of your past assignments, and the number of clients we have in your area. Phantom Shoppers are given assignments via e-mail to those who are in good standing that we feel are most appropriate for each particular shop.
