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 Accumulated balances may be withdrawn by the participant once the account balance reaches 1000 points.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.

Love love love being a participant with this company. Have never done surveys, just regular focus groups and a few one on one interviews. No problem with payments whatsoever. Highly recommend

Have been a member over the years. Filled out many (some time consuming) questionnaires and to no avail, have I ever been selected. I received emails I may qualify, I only filled out the ones that pertained to me and there isn't a reason I shouldn't have been selected. I feel focus group like some other questionable, shady sites, collect our info from the questionnaire which they use in their marketing. I have blocked their emails and do not recommend this site!

An agent from FocusGroup called me today, we went through a few questions and she told me over the phone that I was been selected to take part in a survey that will last an entire day. I agreed to participate and immediately rescheduled my appointments on that day. Within 20 minutes I got another call from the same agent and was told I have been withdrawn from the survey due to the number of applicants that have already been selected. The agent explained to me that on her end she could see there were still available spots so she put me in, however due to MANAGEMENT DISCREPANCY suddenly there was no space available. Very strange set up, poor system. Waste of time for participant and do not rearrange your schedule for it.

the "pre-screening" surveys are ridiculously long, in one case I answered 30 questions to questions like:
"on a scale of 1-10, how important is..." or
"how many times have you..."
"In the past year, have you..., if yes...(choose options),
if no... (choose options",
and so on, page after page, only to receive a message stating I'm not eligible for this study.

It seems the "survey" IS the research they're collecting and selling to clients.

Don't waste your time.

I completed a webcam interview in November 2019 and have not received payment. I emailed customer service a few weeks back and have yet to hear from anyone.
