    “It was rewarding to see a restaurant with problems fix them after I did multiple shops over the course of the year.”

    “I absolutely love being an EyeSpy Secret Shopper. I’m always looking forward to the next restaurant I get to enjoy…for FREE. The EyeSpy team is awesome, friendly and super responsive. I recommend EyeSpy to anyone that loves to dine out but doesn’t want to have to pay for it.”

    “Working with EyeSpy is great! It’s fun to try new restaurants and visit some of my favorites, all while enjoying a great night out! Writing reports makes me feel like a valuable part of the hospitality community, by helping ensuring proper service and great experiences for everyone.”

    “I enjoy exploring the restaurants and services that I may have not tried otherwise. As a mother of two, with a small business, I found it easy to fit the shops into my busy day and pick up assignments that work with my schedule. EyeSpy is a great side-hustle, a lot of fun and well worth my time.”

    Get Ready to Shop

    Once you’re signed up and have an account, complete your profile by adding your birthday (and other important information) that we need to set you up for shops. You may also be asked to complete a short Practice Shop Report.

     

    Once that has been reviewed and approved, we’ll set up and get you started shopping! You select the time and dates you’re available to shop. 

     

    After a short trial period, you’ll be able to select from available shops in your EyeSpy System Shopper Dashboard.

     

    Complete and submit your Shopping Report / Service Evaluation in a timely manner and more Shops will become available to you.

    “We’ve Got the Check!”

    For most shops, Secret Shoppers receive Gift Cards or eCertificates prior to their visit to use on their assignment.

     

    In some cases (like for a Bar Shop), you may be required to pay out of pocket (to observe how a bartender handles cash) and be reimbursed shortly after.
