Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is the MSP Salary Quiz?
The quiz uses 2026 Australian IT salary data covering 50+ MSPs. While it can't replace a formal salary review, it gives you a solid ballpark estimate based on role, experience, location, and certifications.
What is the arbitrage gap?
The arbitrage gap is the difference between what your MSP charges clients for your time and what they pay you. A large gap means the MSP is profiting heavily from your labour — this data gives you leverage to negotiate.
What should I do if I'm underpaid?
Use the quiz results as evidence in your next salary review. Check our Salary Negotiation Guide for tactics, and compare what other MSPs pay using our Salary Calculator.
Does the quiz work for all Australian cities?
Yes. The quiz covers Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, and remote/regional areas. Each city has a cost-of-living multiplier applied to the base salary data.
Can I share my results?
Absolutely. After completing the quiz, you get a shareable result card with your estimated salary, arbitrage gap, and grade. Copy the link or screenshot the card to share.
