❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this a legit way to make PayPal money?

Yes! Observa has been in business since 2016. Today, we work with leading brands like KIND and Beyond Meat. Observers complete opportunities at well-known retailers like Safeway, 7-Eleven, and Walmart.

Do you have opportunities outside of the United States?

Right now, the vast majority of our opportunities are currently in the United States and Canada. Observa is always working to get additional clients, in order to provide more opportunities for you to earn money as a secret shopper. If you turn your notifications on, you'll be notified when there are new opportunities to make PayPal money near you. In the meantime, check out our paid photo challenges, which run every few weeks and can be completed from anywhere.

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.

Overall, this app was worth downloading. I think their update is fantastic, its even easier to use and the dark mode feature is appreciated. I travel around my area on a regular basis, and there are almost always tasks available along my routes. Opportunities are frequently updated and submission approval and payment time is short compared to other apps as long as you follow the instructions. Definitely a keeper.

Rating the app is #1 on the list so I haven't actually used the app but from what I see, there aren't many gigs at all and I can't drive 112 miles for a $12 gig. This would be great if 20 businesses near my current location. However so far I've seen one and it was still 88 miles away! Great idea but need more opportunities near me

First impressions are really positive!! The app is super to use, simple, responsive, and runs well! There's a plethora of available offers, the description of the offers are clear, concise, and super easy to follow!! I've not accepted any offers at this time, I'm interested in seeing how long it takes from accepting the offer to receiving payment, that could really sway my opinion either way significantly!!
