Plenty of Reward Options

The compensation provided varies from project to project, and is paid out either via pre-paid Visa card, check, gift card, or cash. Payment for research can vary from $75-$150. Most groups and interviews take less than 2 hours to complete.

• In-Person Rewards: Rewards for in-person marketing research projects are typically given to participants via prepaid Visa card or check, at the end of the session.

• Telephone Interviews: these are rewarded with pre-paid Visa cards and usually take 6-8 weeks to arrive. Note, however, that some studies take a few weeks to complete and the incentive payment processing will take place only after the study has closed.

• Online Rewards: Online surveys are rewarded with "Focus Group Reward Points" which are racked up in your member account. The average survey pays between 100 and 1000 points, which translates to $1 to $10. Panel members can cash out once they reach 1000 points. Points are rewarded in gift cards and members can choose between physical and virtual cards. Virtual cards can be used immediately whereas physical cards are mailed within 7 to 10 business days. Accumulated balances may be withdrawn by the participant once the account balance reaches 1000 points.

• In-Depth Online Research: Rewards are similar to "in-person" rewards and can come in a pre-paid Visa card. Once the study is complete, expect rewards to arrive within 6-8 weeks.

...I am becoming increasingly frustrated with this panel. I just completed an 85 point/5 minute survey that took me over 10 minutes to complete and awarded me 20 points. I sent a "contact us" message but they never respond. This isn't the first time this has happened to me.

Rarely qualify for surveys. Keep getting re-directed from one survey to another continuously. Points accumulated are a joke and not worth time and effort. Quit this panel.

I was skeptical with this company because of how little time the surveys were and how high the payments were. Once I had accumulated $5, I decided to cash out an Amazon Gift Card just to test this company to see if it was legit before I wasted too much time. A week went by, and my "request" for the gift card was still pending. I reached out twice, and decided maybe to try to cash out through a different gift card in case this might work better. Still NOTHING. They truly don't reply to anything unless you write a review, so I'm hoping to get answers now since they don't have any level of communication.

Have been participant for a few years but noticed policy changes. Over past 3 months I was “approved” after screener for confirm call & appointment date 6 different studies. Never a call, no responses to my phone msgs or email support. No notice that study was cancelled or that I was uninvited. Company has policy of not telling u what defining issue is in beginning of screener so u can avoid wasting time going thru all questions (times 25 surveys). Oftentimes if they had adequate software they could not invite u to fill out screener uselessly or not drop u after “approval”. When no call or notice received after screener approval (which indicates time, date, & procedures) u do not know if oversight, delayed, or to free up your time slot for other things. Participants are considered disposable at will with no zero cost electronic notification. Sometimes they will find excuse not to pay U at all, even when all requirements completed. When u get paid it is immediate on physical site but 8 to 9 weeks if remote. No reason why this is not 8 days. Company likely having financial strains if they can not pay until they wait for more income.

Allows you to completely finish a survey and then informs you that you are not qualified.
I have had several instances of doing online surveys in full only to be informed at the very end That I did not qualify. They are just trying to get information for free.
If I 'don't qualify' they should inform me at the beginning not at the very end.
