Ipsos - "Credit card retail - R2B" (Shopmetrics side)

February 15, 2024 06:36PM
Has anyone done the Ipsos (shopmetrics side) "Credit card retail - R2B" shop where you go to a chain tractor/farm and ranch store to see if they mention the chain's credit card and make a purchase between $80-100, which doesn't have to be returned later but can be? The guidelines aren't provided, only a "pre-survey" that asks demographic questions. I'm just wondering how involved this would be given that it's paying $35.

If your path dictates you walk through hell, do it as though you own the place. -unknown

These are assigned by quota, so if you are not assigned within 24 hours of the time you placed your application, at this time there isn't a shop for you.

Sorry - these have such odd quotas - and they change all the time. I know it is frustrating when trying to plan out your shops!

Thank you for explaining, Karen. It could have been noted in the job description so that others not on the forum could be aware and not suffer the same frustration.

@datagirl I totally understand. Before you can apply for these, there is a certification that you have to take, so those would be the criteria, and the need for each type changes daily. Unfortunately, the best that I can tell you is that if you haven't been assigned within 24 hours of applying I don't have a shop that works. But I 100% understand how frustrating that is. I actually go through them more than once a day, but 24 hours would be the max.

Thanks for your response Karen, I understand. Sometimes it is just frustrating as you try to plan your week and meet your monthly goals but it is what it is. I found other stuff to do so all is good.
