Agents beware- Total Waste of Time
AGENTS BEWARE - SCAM & WASTE OF TIME
AGENTS BEWARE – Extremely Suspicious and Massive Waste of Agent Time
My experience with Showdigs was a complete waste of time and raised serious concerns about how the platform operates.
Like many other reviewers have noted, Showdigs requires agents to sign up and then sit through an extensive training process that takes well over two hours. This includes videos, slides, quizzes, identity verification, and submission of personal information. After completing the entire training and being told I passed, I was issued a so-called “certification.”
Less than an hour later, I received an email stating that I was rejected, with the explanation that I “completed the tests too quickly.” This was after they acknowledged I passed all requirements and issued a certificate. That justification makes little sense and mirrors the experiences described in many other negative reviews.
At that point, Showdigs already had my full personal information and a copy of my ID. Based on my experience and the consistency of similar reviews, it strongly appears that the platform benefits more from collecting agent data than from actually onboarding agents to provide work. At best, the process is misleading. At worst, it raises serious questions about how agent data is being collected, stored, and used.
I also received correspondence from company leadership, which did not address the substance of the issue or explain why agents are certified and then immediately rejected. The lack of transparency is troubling.
I would strongly caution agents to read the reviews carefully before signing up and sharing sensitive personal information. I regret not doing so myself. The time investment alone is significant, and the outcome feels predetermined.
This experience has prompted me to submit complaints to appropriate regulatory and consumer protection agencies so that the handling of agent data and representations made during onboarding can be properly reviewed.
Proceed with caution.

Love it except
App can be glitchy and when it freezes as I’m trying to get tours it can be frustrating. Otherwise love it and they have always been helpful and treated me as a professional.
Broker review
I started with them at the beginning of COVID. ShowDigs communicates well & they raised the rate of pay. Have always been treated respectfully as a professional.
There must be more brokers on it because I see less jobs? You snooze, you lose. Must hit button to accept quickly.

Great app, lots of functionality
This is a great app to use both as an agent and on the property manager side of things as well - really like that I can see the tours table on the go and takeover/reschedule tours when needed.
Response from developer
Thank you! We're so glad you find the Showdigs app useful!
This company does malpractice with their agents
I do not recommend Showdigs app or company to anyone. Treat agents unfairly, and discriminate, the pay is very low, not worth it!
Response from developer
Due to COVID-19 safety procedures and general liability concerns, we do not allow our agents to bring their children, pets, or anyone with them while they are showing properties. After two warnings, agents who cannot follow these rules will be removed from our network. Our overall goal is to keep all of our agents safe, while providing the best and safest service to prospects. Thank you for understanding.
