Frequently Asked Questions

What am I buying?

Customers can download the extension for free, then purchase a Weekly Activation or a 30-Day Activation to unlock paid access.

Does the extension submit applications for me?

No. The extension may help you notice relevant listings faster and can help with certain intermediate setup screens, but final submission and verification remain manual.

How do I get the extension?

Download the ZIP from the website, extract it, and load the folder from chrome://extensions using Developer mode. The installation guide explains every step.

How do payments work?

The website creates a secure PayPal order for the selected plan. After PayPal confirms capture, the server verifies the amount, creates the licence, displays the token, and sends it to the checkout email.

What is the support email?

Visit the Contact page for the current support address. Include the purchase email and PayPal order reference when asking about payment or activation.

Will my licence work after an extension update?

Yes, an active licence remains stored on the licence server. Keep the purchase email and token because Chrome may clear local extension data when an unpacked copy is removed.

Why can a job disappear after it is detected?

Availability changes quickly. A card can remain visible after its shifts are taken. The extension can retry, but it cannot reserve or create a slot.

Can I choose part-time and flex opportunities together?

Yes. Select Part-time + Flex time in the employment-type setting. Choose Any if you want all supported types.

Is an exact shift time required?

No. If no time is entered, monitoring works normally. When a preferred time is entered, it becomes an additional matching condition.

Is Canada Shift Watcher affiliated with any workplace platform?

No. It is an independent product and must not claim affiliation or endorsement unless you have actual authorization.
