MobileXpression

Shopalong is a mobile community where you can earn cash for completing fun assignments at the places you visit every day. Your opinions will shape future shopping experiences retailers and manufacturers can give you. Shopalong is run by Purchased, a market research firm that works with consumer brands.

Fun, Interactive Assignments

Participate in fun assignments such as taking pictures of products, logging the shopping trips you take to find certain items for holidays, celebrations, etc., preparing shopping lists, etc. Every assignment is different.

Download the App on Google Play or iTunes

To become a participant in the Shopalong program, you must first download the app. It's available on iOS and Android devices and will enable you to check into stores, upload receipts, etc.

Participate In Assignments!

An assignment is a fun and easy way for you to earn rewards. Assignments might be things like logging all the shopping trips you take when shopping for things like items you need around the house, or logging what you are buying for special events like Mother's Day, Black Friday or other holidays. Other assignments may ask you to keep a digital diary of what you experience throughout the day. There are typically 3 phases to assignments: qualifying for the assignment, answering polls and participating in the requisite activities, and taking a final wrap-up survey on your assignment. You must finish the assignment and all of its requirements in order to collect your rewards.

Earn Cash for Assignment Completions

Every assignment you complete will be rewarded with a cash incentive, which ranges between $5 to $50. The amount of cash you receive will be dependent on the length and complexity of the assignment itself. There are no points systems to figure out and you can collect your earnings via PayPal or a pre-paid Visa card as soon as you have a cash balance in your account. There's NO minimum balance needed in your account to request a payment!

Bonus App Features

Besides allowing you to earn cash rewards, the Shopalong app features some great features such as being able to set a budget and track how much you are spending. You can also view your own personalized shopping report which can be compared to other members of the Shopalong community.

Shopalongs didnt pay

January 16, 2018 by Lydia from United States

I did the study as asked and then when it was time to take the final survey, which I had to do to get paid, it wouldn't let me. After that got fixed it wouldn't let me get my reward. Now they just wont respond to my emails. My time is important and I feel like I just wasted a week of it.

Don't bother with them!

January 10, 2018 by Tony from United States

I've complete everything that was required to do to receive my reward but they didn't pay out. I've tired to submit a question on their app but the app has no way of submitting any questions. When I went through the website on my laptop it tells me that my email address is not correct even though under my account it has my email address. I can't even submit my question through the site either.

DONT USE!

Please do not waste your time on this company! I just spent 2 weeks trying to get paid for a job I completed in its entirety. They will lie and claim you didn't do the work and refuse to pay you. Its also a small amount of money for what they expect you to do. The biggest problem I cant get them to acknowledge my issue through customer service. I get a really rude person named Tammy who will not respond other than to tell me I didn't complete the assignment which is untrue.Save yourself the time and trouble and dont bother! I am going to try reporting them to BBB.

False opportunities

September 26, 2017 by EMMA from United Kingdom

Registered, downloaded app. Completed surveys, sent receipts etc. Complied 100%. Now nearing final survey states no records on the app. Disappointed, waste of my time. Don't waste yours.

Cant get final survey

September 25, 2017 by Melinda from United States

I completed the assignment but now it won't give me the the final survey to complete it for the reward and i can't get any response from support . Does anyone have any ideas what to do to help me?
