Frequently Asked Questions About The WeGoShop Business
Can I start a WeGoShop business in my area?
Whether or not you can offer the WeGoShop service in your area depends on the following:
Did you find the cities or towns that you want to offer the WeGoShop service to, listed, after navigating through our Grocery Delivery Areas page?
Did you find the cities or towns that you want to offer the WeGoShop service to, listed, after navigating through our Grocery Delivery Areas page?
no
If no, you probably reached THIS PAGE and that means YES, you can provide service in that city or town. No Associate Owner has secured it yet. As an Exclusive Territory Associate Owner you can secure the cities or towns exclusively. As a Shared Territory Associate Owner you may claim the cities or towns and be the first to offer service, however another Shared Territory Associate Owner may also offer service to that city or town in the future. Now is your chance to secure your areas before someone else does!
yes but you also saw zip/postal codes
If yes but you also saw zip/postal codes, then you can secure any other zip/postal code for that city or town that is not listed.
yes but it is tagged with an * asterisk
If yes but it is tagged with an * asterisk, then yes, you can provide service in that city, town or zip/postal code as a Shared Territory Associate Owner, you may be providing service in the same area as at least one other Shared Territory Associate Owner or you may be the first and only WeGoShop service provider.
yes and there were no zip codes or an * asterisk
If yes and there were no zip codes or an * asterisk, then unfortunately no, you cannot also provide service in that city or town. It has already been secured by an Exclusive Territory Associate Owner and service is either currently available or is scheduled to go live.
HOW MANY Cities or towns CAN I HAVE?
Legally an technically you can offer and provide your service wherever you want, however traffic through the WeGoShop platform is client navigated and navigation is directed based on your licensing term and what it allows:
All Pro Exclusive Territory Associate Owners are permitted to exclusively secure and offer their WeGoShop service to up to 20 cities or towns within their local / regional area.
All Standard Exclusive Territory Associate Owners are permitted to exclusively secure and offer their WeGoShop service to up to 10 cities or towns within their local / regional area.
All Starter Exclusive Territory Associate Owners are permitted to exclusively secure and offer their WeGoShop service to up to 2 cities or towns within their local / regional area.
All Standard Shared Territory Associate Owners are permitted to offer their WeGoShop service to up to 10 cities or towns within their local / regional area.
All Starter Shared Territory Associate Owners are permitted to offer their WeGoShop service to up to 5 cities or towns within their local / regional area.
All Single Shared Territory Associate Owners are permitted to offer their WeGoShop service to 1 city or town within their local / regional area.
If you see a city or town listed with an * asterisk symbol, that area is considered a shared territory and any new Shared Territory Associate Owner can also join us and provide service in that area.
All cities or towns listed without an * asterisk symbol are considered exclusive territories and have already been secured and no other Associate Owner can provide service in that city or town.
Please keep in mind that all cities and towns are secured on a first come, first secured basis, whether exclusively or shared. All shared territories may be limited to share with up to a total four WeGoShop owners. We currently do not allow for more than four owners per shared city or town without the consensus of the current WeGoShop owners.

WHAT IF MY CITY OR ANY CITY THAT I WANT TO SERVICE IS NOT LISTED?
Read carefully, this seems to be a brain teaser. If any cities or towns (aka: Territories) that you want to provide the WeGoShop service to are not listed or shown, after navigating from the Grocery Delivery Areas page, then that means that they are available for you to secure exclusively or claim and share with other WeGoShop owners and offer service to.
If you see a territory listed with an * asterisk symbol, that area is considered a shared territory and any new Shared Territory Associate Owner can also join and provide service in that area.
All territories listed without an * asterisk symbol are considered exclusive territories and have already been secured and no other Associate Owner can provide service in that territory.
Please keep in mind that all exclusive territories are secured on a first come, first secured basis. They might not be available tomorrow.

What if there are certain areas of A city that I do not want to service?
If any Associate Owner does not wish to provide service to an entire city or town, they have the option to limit their service to favored zip/postal codes for that city or town instead. Any zip code that has not been secured can be secured by another Associate Owner.
If I want to add more areas in the future will it cost more?
If you want to add more cities or town beyond what your licensing term entitles you to, we're willing to work with you fairly. Just ask.
Can I operate a WeGoShop business in another country?
Maybe. There might be some U.S. trade restrictions or services that cannot be provided to you as a WeGoShop Associate Owner outside of the United States and Canada, such as an extension on our toll free number. Please reach out to us via the email form in the last FAQ and tell us what country you are in along with your level of interest. We will research the possibility and get back to you.
What is necessary to start a WeGoShop grocery shopping and delivery business?
To start the WeGoShop service in your area you must have a reliable vehicle, internet service, a mobile phone.
What kind of marketing materials do you provide?
We provide a custom, full color, electronic set of marketing materials that consist of ready to print templates for business cards, post cards, door knob hangers, circulars, coupons and more for all WeGoShop owners.
How do I get paid providing the WeGoShop grocery shopping and delivery service?
You are paid directly by the client. Your grocery delivery ordering system will be set up to accept credit card payments via PayPal or another service if requested and available or you get paid when you deliver the grocery shopping and delivery order from your client's favorite store. It's your choice how you get paid. All payments are made directly to you, not to us.
What kind of income can I make in my area providing the WeGoShop service?
Your income potential is unlimited! Although we cannot make any guarantees as to the kind of income that you will make by providing the WeGoShop service, we do believe that with honest determination and effort and by utilizing the tools and techniques that we provide, you can make a very respectable income. One of the greatest reasons for operating your own WeGoShop business is being able to set your own rates. There is no reason to let some gig company determine your worth!
What KIND OF INCOME ARE oTHER ASSOCIATE OWNERS MAKING?
Unfortunately we don't know what kind of income that other Associate Owners are making. We do not have any reporting requirements to any agency, therefore your income is private to you. Keep this in mind though, you do not pay WeGoShop any commissions and we do not take any profits that you earn, it's all yours!
WHAT IS THE TYPICAL SERVICE FEE THAT MOST OTHER ASSOCIATE OWNERS CHARGE?
There is no typical service fee. Nearly all of our Associate Owners charge what they feel the market in their area can or is willing to pay. When joining us, we do have recommended rates that you can consider, but ultimately it is your decision!
Can I contact other Associate Owners to see how business is going?
Yes, you are free to contact any Associate Owner you wish, whether it is via email or by phone.
How do I contact other Associate Owners?
We do not give personal Associate Owner contact information to anyone, but all it takes is just a little research. If you cannot figure this one out, we're sorry, we cannot help you.
DO YOU HAVE any special license, bonding or insurance requirements?
We do not have these types of requirements of you. This is your business, you do not work for us, you work for yourself.
Can I use a different business name other than WeGoShop as an Associate Owner?
Yes, many of our Associate Owners create their own business name. However you will be licensed and authorized to use the name WeGoShop.com or any variation of WeGoShop as long as you remain an active WeGoShop Associate Owner. WeGoShop.com becomes your marketing vehicle and using the WeGoShop brand is highly recommended in all of your marketing.
What will my WeGoShop Profile page and ordering system look like and work?
Can I customize my WeGoShop profile page and ordering system?
Many parts of your WeGoShop profile page and ordering system can be customized to your liking. Although we do not hand over complete design controls to you, we are absolutely open to working with you based on your direction to implement ideas and processes into your system and WeGoShop business. Don't be afraid to ask if we can do this or that. Many great ideas have been implemented into our ordering system by WeGoShop owners. There are some things that we cannot do however, one in particular is create an online store with millions of grocery products that have varying prices, and descriptions that would need constant updates for each and every grocery store throughout the country that we go shop at. What a headache for such a simple service. Let's Talk!
Can I use my own merchant account or credit card processing service for my business?
Sure you can! We have the ability to implement 1 of over 20 different payment processors into your ordering system. Initially we will set your ordering system up with PayPal or Square if preferred and requested. If you have a different provider, just let us know and we will check to see if we can implement it for you.
Additionally, we can also set up your ordering system to not collect any payments at all and you can make your own payment arrangements with your clients.

You may also provide your individual business policies to be placed on your profile / web page.
Are my WeGoShop grocery shopping and delivery business expenses tax deductible?
There are many tax advantages to being in business for yourself. However we are not tax professionals and cannot advise directly on this subject because tax laws vary in different areas. But chances are that most of your expenses are tax deductible.
What if I decide that the WeGoShop business is just not for me?
We understand that this business may not be for you for any number of reasons. But we do know that ANYONE CAN THRIVE in this business with an honest determination.
However, if you wish, we make it simple to cancel your WeGoShop Associate Ownership.

a mESSAGE tO iNSTA-sHOPPERS
Our primary market for new WeGoShop business owners are people like you, but our business model is open to anyone with a determination and a desire for independence. Unfortunately there isn't room for all of the qualified insta-shoppers because we don't over-saturate cities and towns with independent contractors. We secure exclusive territories to only one WeGoShop owner or limit the number off shared territory owners for any given city or town.
We are tuned in to what you are currently experiencing as an insta-shopper. We know that you feel that you could do it better and earn more on your terms. And we feel that you can too. If you believe and understand that you don't need the entire insta-customer base in order to have a successful business in the same market, that you just need YOUR customer base, then we want you on our team. Don't quit your current insta-gig though, it's a valuable tool to use to your advantage if you leverage your knowledge.
Yes, we know, our platform is completely different than what you and many insta-customers are used to. It's not a glitchy app with catalogs of inflated priced groceries and mistaken pictures and descriptions. It's not an app that delivers insulting, low paying batches with disappearing tips. Our platform is web based designed as a service provider, not a resale store to shop in. Throughout our 20+ years in business our platform has continuously evolved but has always remained simple and perfect for the types of clients we personal shoppers like to shop and deliver for. And we're pretty sure that your favorite clients will quickly come to appreciate it too.
