JobSlinger is a free tool that searches open shops across hundreds of SASSIE-based mystery shopping firms at once. Instead of checking each firm’s job board one by one, JobSlinger lets you view options from many firms in one place. This makes it fast to compare jobs in any zone.
For active mystery shoppers, JobSlinger is a game-changer. It turns the boring process of logging into dozens of sites into a single, smooth search. More eyes on open shops means more chances to earn.
The tool works only with firms that use the SASSIE platform, which includes many of the biggest mystery shopping names. While it doesn’t cover every firm, it captures a large share of open jobs.
How JobSlinger Works
You make a free account on JobSlinger and enter your spot. The system then searches all linked SASSIE-based firm job boards for shops near you. Results show up in one list with the firm name, shop type, spot, fee, and deadline.
When you find a shop you like, clicking on it takes you straight to that firm’s SASSIE portal. If you already have an account with that firm, you can log in and claim the shop. If not, you can sign up as a new shopper with that firm.
JobSlinger does not assign shops on its own — it simply helps you find them faster. All real jobs happen through the mystery shopping firms themselves. Think of JobSlinger as a search engine built just for mystery shopping.
Pro Tip: Use JobSlinger when mapping routes. Search a wider zone to see all shops along your planned path, then claim jobs from different firms for the same trip.
JobSlinger Features
Zone search. Enter any zip code or city to search that zone. Set your preferred range — great for finding shops during travel or checking out jobs in new regions.
Firm filter. Focus on firms you already work with, or browse all open options. This helps when you want to build volume with certain names.
Fee sorting. Sort results by pay to quickly spot the highest-paying jobs. This helps you focus your time on the shops that pay best.
Shop type groups. Filter by dining, retail, housing, banking, and other shop types. Zero in on the types you enjoy or have done before.

IC Pro add-on. JobSlinger offers an IC Pro check program. This confirms your IC status and may speed up sign-up with some firms.
Common JobSlinger Mistakes
Thinking it shows all jobs. JobSlinger only includes SASSIE-based firms. Big names using other platforms like Shopmetrics or Prophet don’t show up. You still need to check those firms on your own.
Not signing up with firms first. Finding a great shop on JobSlinger means nothing if you can’t claim it. You still need active accounts with the firms whose shops you want. Use JobSlinger to find firms, then finish their sign-up.
Skipping smaller firms. JobSlinger shows shops from many firms you may have never heard of. These smaller names often have less contest for jobs. Give them a shot.
Only searching your home zone. Going on a trip? Search where you’re headed for shops you can do along the way. Daily commute? Search along your route for handy add-ons.
Checking too rarely. JobSlinger shows real-time listings. Shops get claimed all the time. Checking often — daily if you can — boosts your chances of finding good jobs.
Heads Up: JobSlinger results change fast as shops get claimed. If you see something good, act fast. Coming back later often means that shop is gone.
Pro Tips for Using JobSlinger
Search at different ranges. Start with a tight range for close shops, then widen to see what’s farther out. A great job 45 minutes away might be worth the drive.
Check early and often. Many schedulers post new shops at night. Checking JobSlinger first thing in the morning gives you early access to fresh jobs.
Grow your firm list. When JobSlinger shows shops from firms you’re not signed up with, think about joining. More active sign-ups mean more visible jobs over time.
Use it for scouting. Not sure which firms work in your zone? JobSlinger reveals who has active clients nearby. This helps you choose where to sign up first.
Compare fees across firms. At times the same client has shops through more than one firm at different rates. JobSlinger lets you spot these and pick the best-paying option.
Save your searches. If you search the same zones often, bookmark those result pages. Quick access saves time versus typing in search terms each time.
Common Questions
Is JobSlinger really free?
Yes. Basic JobSlinger access costs nothing. They offer add-on features and IC Pro for a fee, but the core shop search is fully free.
Why do I need accounts with each firm?
JobSlinger is a search tool, not a mystery shopping firm. It finds jobs but can’t assign shops. You must sign up with each firm on your own to claim and do jobs.
Does JobSlinger show all mystery shopping jobs?
No. It only shows SASSIE-based firms. Other platforms like Shopmetrics and Prophet have their own job boards not shown in JobSlinger searches.
Can I apply for shops through JobSlinger?
No. JobSlinger links you to the firm’s portal where you apply or self-assign. All job steps happen through the firm’s own system.
What is IC Pro?
IC Pro is JobSlinger’s add-on program that confirms your IC status. Some mystery shopping firms accept IC Pro, which may speed up their sign-up process.
