Branded Surveys, Panel Champ, Tellwut

Let your voice be heard and earn cash!

BuzzBack market research has been operating since April 2000 and has a suite of web based tools used to get the opinions of consumers. This panel influences hundreds of brands worldwide with their innovative approaches to research. You will not always be filling out surveys either. Sometimes you will be asked to test a product or brand and be able to keep the product as well.

Variety of rewards offered

BuzzBack offers a diverse selection of reward options to show appreciation for your time! Rewards include Amazon gift cards, retail electronic vouchers, or cash paid via PayPal. You can also take advantage of regular sweepstakes as a member of the panel where you can earn even more money, or donate your earning to charity. User profiles with BuzzBack contain an “Account Snapshot" to show survey takers the amount of rewards they have earned in real time (the rewards may take a few days or about a week to show in a users account after each survey is completed).

Online survey details

BuzzBack knows your time is valuable, so they aim to keep most surveys between 15-20 minutes long. Survey lengths can be longer in some cases, but are rewarded accordingly to the time spent. Many surveys are valued at around $5 each, and a minimum of $15 is required to request earnings. Redemption of full rewards takes 3-4 weeks. The best thing is that BuzzBack is not based on points, and rather focuses on offering a dollar value for the surveys you fill out.

Simple 3 step joining process

  • Step 1: Fill out the registration page, a basic information questionnaire that takes only minutes to complete
  • Step 2: BuzzBack requires you to answer a few upfront questions to see if you qualify for particular sessions, these will be sent by e-mail
  • Step 3: When you qualify for a study, you will be taken into a BuzzBack online survey session where you can share their valuable thoughts about influential brands while earning great rewards!

Eligibility: this panel is open to residents of the United States and international members of all countries. Open to all who are 18+.

They steal your money!

September 17, 2010 by Lisa from United States

12-13 weeks of waiting for your check? How about 26 weeks??? Yes, I've been waiting for my checks since August 2008. Contacted the site at least 10 times and everytime hear - "don't worry, you will receive it soon". If they hold money for so long - they must pay interest at least. What a scam!!!

they are confusing

September 17, 2010 by kevin from United States

they don't even really have an account for you to set up so you can't even really keep track of the surveys that you have taken. I think they are a bit shady too because they say that the incentives will be sent out within 4-6 weeks, but I took some surveys for them in August and it is now December and I never got anything from them. Luckily for me, I don't think that they owe me a whole lot, but it still seems a bit unprofessional.

Good grief

My experience is exactly as Jillians. They owe me a boatload of money. I've taken close to 10 surveys, one just this week, and they have yet to pay me.

This is unprofessional and unacceptable.

13 weeks!?

September 17, 2010 by Jillian from United States

I completed a survey for them in July. Was promised $3.00. Have never received it. When it had been over a month, I e-mailed and was told it took 8 weeks to receive check. After 8 weeks passed, I e-mailed again and was told 10 to 12 weeks. It is now week 13 and check yet. This was my first survey with them and I believe it will be my last. Very disappointing.

The slowest paytments ever

September 17, 2010 by Ian from United States

Buzzback is a legitamate survey company, it's just that they don't like to pay! In April I completed a fun survey for $10 that only took 40 mins. Unfortunately after 3 months I still hadn't recieved a check. After contacting them I was told my check was on it's way, but it still took a further 3 weeks to arrive.

Though this company does have well paid and fun surveys, the waiting time for payment is way too long. Having to contact a survey company for payment everytime is unacceptable and I will not be taking any more surveys for this company.
