April 2020 • Grand Rapids, MI

What I liked

The hours are flexible and generally, customers tipped really well. I like that I can work as much or little as I want.

What I wish was different

They changed the payment schedule which means that it is harder to pick up orders in my area now. Also, I personally need a job with a schedule and consistency so the flexibility was challenging at times too.

Advice

Shipt is a great opportunity to pair with another more consistent paying job.

Shopper

June - September 2020 • Irvine, CA

What I liked

The flexibility & ability to work whenever I wanted. If I needed a day off, I just wouldn't shop. I was my own boss and I could schedule my own hours. Over time, you built up a list of people who prefer you shop for them, and that allows for repeat business.

What I wish was different

The number of orders during off-peak times, which is typically Monday-Wednesday. If those days had more available order for me to shop, I would have made more money.

Advice

Communicate with people as much as possible. Even if you think it is too much, it is better than the alternative.

That I can create my own hours and choose which orders I would like to do. I also liked that I felt like I was really helping people that needed it during the pandemic.

What I wish was different

That the store was more stocked.

Advice

Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it, and don’t be afraid to make decisions when the member isn’t getting back to you.

Shopper

June 2019 • Atlanta, GA

What I liked

Flexible hours! You can set up your own schedule, or just pick up orders that are open.

What I wish was different

When you put yourself on the schedule, you receive the first order that pops up, even if it’s a smaller order (make less money) than some that might pop up later.

Advice

It’s what you make it: if you take multiple orders a day and put yourself on the schedule whenever you’re free, you can make a good amount of money per week.
