A mission is sometimes called a “mystery shop.” Lanla is a mystery shopping company that connects participants with these market research activities.

Understand your participation in market research

If you decide to register as a mystery shopper on the Lanla platform, you acknowledge that mystery shoppers are real consumers and are in no way considered employees of Lanla. As such, you act exclusively as participants in market research studies, and your participation is entirely voluntary. Lanla offers you various activities (surveys, mystery shopping missions, etc.) with no obligation to complete them. Any compensation offered in exchange for these activities does not constitute a salary but rather a reimbursement, as the efforts required do not correspond to compensation based on the minimum wage in effect in Canada.
