Sign in through your agency
Apply to a mystery shopping agency. If it uses RetailHawk, the agency invites you to the platform and controls your programme access.
Agencies use RetailHawk to manage shopper eligibility, opportunities and assigned work. Shopper reporting and payment tracking sit alongside eligibility, opportunities and assigned work.
Your agency controls who can join its programmes, which work you can see and when payment is made. RetailHawk gives you the shopper workflow for the work that agency assigns.
1 · INVITATION
Apply to a mystery shopping agency. If it uses RetailHawk, the agency invites you to the platform and controls your programme access.
2 · OPPORTUNITIES
Available work reflects the agency's eligibility, location and programme rules. Depending on the programme, you can request or accept suitable assignments.
3 · FIELDWORK
Open the booked visit, follow the assignment brief and complete the published questionnaire. Save and validation support the fieldwork flow through to final submission.
4 · SUBMISSION
Your answers are submitted against the assignment-specific questionnaire version so later questionnaire changes do not silently change work already issued.
5 · REVIEW
Independent review can approve the submission or return it for a controlled correction. The correction history remains attributable rather than overwriting the original submission.
6 · PAYMENT
Your agency sets payment dates and terms. Where the finance module is enabled, RetailHawk can show payment status and itemised statement information for attributable shopper work.
RetailHawk provides a responsive shopper experience for opportunities, assigned work and questionnaire submission.
Assigned work moves through fieldwork, submission and independent review. Your agency controls payment terms and the payment information it makes available.

Your agency owns recruitment, assignment decisions, deadlines, corrections and payment terms. RetailHawk provides the software it uses to run those workflows.
Use password recovery from the sign-in page. If you have not received an invitation or your access is wrong, contact the agency that invited you.
Your agency sets payment dates and terms. Contact that agency about a specific payment. Where enabled, RetailHawk can show the status and statement information the agency records.
