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 Accumulated balances may be withdrawn by the participant once the account balance reaches 1000 points.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 successfully qualified for 2 focus group studies this past week and I was supposed to be contacted with the confirmation info but I was never contacted. I want to participate in these studies but I can't if the employees aren't even willing to correspond with the members of their website who qualify for their studies. Very disappointed.

Yes, you read it. Your answers are never good enough, in my case mines aren't. I have been a member with focus pointe global and focus group.com for a few years now. I have only been "eligible" and called back for a survey once yet, I continue getting invites to surveys that I can never participate in. Is there any way that this website can send me a survey that I could actually participate in or are they just getting the answers they need through the screening process? I know that I am not the only one complaining about this because someone else I know hasn't been able to participate in a survey in years. Why is this company up, if they don't match the correct people with their surveys or at least, reach out to them in regards to something that will not be a waste of their time for filling up online?

I did about 50 surveys and they always say “you don’t fit the criteria” when i do! I'm 20 years old and I fit a lot of the criteria. they just use your survey results for their actual surveys and then they say they cannot select you.

I completed a long hour survey that I was supposed to get a $25 gift card for. And of course that did not happen, I emailed focus group and told them and got no response. Seems like they just want you to do stuff for free and don’t hold up on their word.
Not a good place to do surveys. I give half star. If they have the time to send emails to do the surveys they should have time to pay for the surveys.

This review will be brief & concise: Focus Pointe Global's Sr. VP of Operations got involved in my case and ultimately perpetuated a well-documented deception & suspension of my account, prohibiting any further activity or any claim to my balance. You see, the Senior Vice President of Operations was caught in a couple of lies; most notably that a client had not recorded my complete participation in a study, when unbeknownst to her, they had already confirmed the completion to me. To cover her tracks, she informed me that no further contact would be permitted, instructed her staff in the same manner and suspended my account, forbidding the possibility of ever cashing out its balance. FPG at best demonstrates the ethics of a child and does not act in good faith to resolve valid disputes. All of this is well documented, has been reported to their local BBB and perhaps most importantly, should be a warning to anyone considering FPG as a reasonable and honest company.
