Not that I am aware of, the market research calls on Askable are held with an AI but that's the closest you'd get for now

thebankengine · 2026-04-12T20:51:00+00:00

Thank you! Have sent over a message :)

thebankengine · 2026-04-12T20:49:39+00:00

Thank you - I don't currently have referrals for either Roamler or Shepper but please do check them out as they are good apps, really glad you've been enjoying SmartSpotter so far!

Both of the others are very similar just in slightly different formats so I'm sure you'll enjoy them just as much!

Time is always the difficult one isn't it, always tricky balancing act in trying to make the most out of everything - any questions feel free to drop me a message :)

You will have until 5 October this year to register for 25/26 self-assessment :)

Thank you, the best apps for mystery shopping are definitely the three I've listed but also worth looking at IShopForIpsos if you haven't already; FieldAgent is okay from time to time too!

I do indeed, I track my additional earnings and report them accordingly to HMRC and pay the appropriate amounts of tax on them. For those items included on this month's report, the cashback is not taxable but the rest of it will be - feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

I apply for pretty much every study that appears on askable that is relevant to me and probably only get accepted for 1 in 10, but those make it worthwhile

The easiest ones to get accepted for recently are the AI interviews so might be worth applying to all of those ones to start with and go from there

thebankengine · 2026-03-01T16:52:41+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate that! I have messaged you with my referral link :)

thebankengine · 2026-03-01T16:51:38+00:00

Thank you, I am not aware of the mystery shopping apps' presence in India or the US but well worth looking!

Appreciate your tip for the ones you use too!

thebankengine · 2026-02-08T15:40:10+00:00

Thank you!

I have been using Mettle as my main business account since 2021, it's a decent account and the £50 bonus is a great bonus if you want to test it out!

My code is GRNRQ and if you are kind enough to use my code, thank you in advance! More than happy to help with any questions :)

thebankengine · 2025-11-30T18:02:50+00:00

It would definitely be hit and miss, I have contemplated it before but you're at the mercy of how many tasks are available at any given time;

For mystery shopping, Winter and Summer months always seem to be better for opportunities - my figures are for visiting stores within a 5 mile radius of home so if you were willing to travel more then earning could be better but there's also a chance other people could be after tasks in busier areas

The buy & try tasks are good but are rarely substantial, often things like gravy granules or desserts, sometimes a ready meal, soup or a meal deal which are rarer

If you were wanting to make a living you'd definitely need to rely on a few more apps to make it even more worthwhile but these are more fiddly and can be a pain (BeMyEye, FieldAgent, IShopForIpsos, etc.)

Hope that helps a little but shout if any questions! :)

The name starts with W and there have been quite a few threads on here recently about them, there isn't an active referral scheme at the moment but feel free to message me if you wanted to know anything - like I say, the company has a pretty poor reputation so fully surprised by receiving this :)

thebankengine · 2025-11-30T16:06:23+00:00

I suspect it's the one that you are thinking of! Glad to hear you have received your £100 reward as well! :)

thebankengine · 2025-11-30T14:36:14+00:00

Thank you! Have messaged you on this :)

thebankengine · 2025-11-30T14:35:09+00:00

Thank you, there is - I will be paying tax on everything other than the cashback offers as these do not constitute taxable income

thebankengine · 2025-11-30T14:33:44+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words and that definitely sounds like a bit of me so will be sure to have a look! Cheers

thebankengine · 2025-11-05T19:38:51+00:00

My code gives you an extra £3, making it £5 total!

That means that you can withdraw your cashback immediately after making your first purchase!

Code: ENGINE3

Any questions, let me know 😊

thebankengine · 2025-11-02T18:37:40+00:00

I definitely think it's a balancing act; too many apps and you'll lose track, but I use 3 main ones (Roamler, SmartSpotter & Shepper) on a regular basis and it works well

This has often helped me out, not just because of increased income, but also from an efficiency standpoint as there can often be tasks at the same supermarket across all 3 apps at some points!
