If Observa rejects an observation, is the data still sent to the customer?

Never. At Observa, we only want to pass along high-quality data to our customers, so we discard data from rejected observations. We only reject an observation if the secret shopper didn’t follow the instructions correctly. Right now, more than 90% of observations are accepted.

Ratings and reviews

really love the concept and the sign up is super easy and efficient. I cannot accept opps though which has been frustrating. I have contacted support and they were prompt in responding at first, saying my version is outdated. I have a very new galaxy, im not sure what the issue is. I would love to be able to give yall 5 stars again though if anybody can help.

Updates regarding reply from Observa! They say my images were too much of an angle. Well, maybe you should take into consideration the aisles are too narrow to catch images at a straight angle. Worst ever! I was quickly reminded as to why I deleted this app the first time. You waste time going into stores to observe with this company. They ALWAYS find means to reject to avoid paying!! Find another way because this one isn't it.

This app is hit and miss. There is usually some sort of task available and the pay is decent compared to similar platforms. It seems like submissions can get rejected pretty easily and all the work ends up being a waste of time. When they do get approved it isn't usually too long from submission to payment, if it doesn't get rejected. Out of 15 submissions I had 5 rejected. The platform is easy to use.
