KEY FEATURES:

The Panel Station is an online community of consumers who regularly share their views and opinions on a variety of issues by participating in market research surveys. By participating in these surveys, members of The Panel Station influence decision making in organizations worldwide, and help in the creation of improved products and services.

Exchange Your Points for E-Gift Certificates

The Panel Station offers a wide variety of e-gift certificate options. When you have earned 3000 points, you can exchange your balance for a e-gift card. Retailers vary per region, but include: PayPal, Amazon, Rakuten, Submarino, Jumia, Linio, Flipkart, Lazada, and more.

Survey Lengths and Frequency

Most online surveys take approximately 12-15 minutes to complete and are straightforward to answer. Surveys that are more complicated or are longer will typically offer more points for completion. You will typically receive somewhere around 2 survey invitations per week.

Earn Reward Points for Each Survey You Complete

For every online survey you complete, you will earn between 500-5000 points. (500 points = 50Rs in India), depending on the survey's length and complexity.

Point Values

500 points equals approximately RS 50, so 3000 points (the minimum amount required in order to cash out) equals Rs 300. In countries outside India, 3000 points equals roughly $6.50 AUD, 60 Rand, 200 Philippine Pesos, etc.

More Ways to Earn Points

If you get disqualified or screened-out of a survey, you will automatically be credited 20 points to your account, just for trying. You'll also have opportunities to earn points through participation in discussion threads, or updating your profile.

Monthly Prize Draws

For every country (ex. Australia, India, South Africa, etc.), The Panel Station offers a monthly prize draw. Get a ticket into the draw by exchanging anywhere from 300-500 points (depending on your region) or take special surveys for sweepstakes entries, and you could be the lucky winner of cash, great gift vouchers, and more. Many draws have more than one winner.

I have been using Panel Station for quite a few years and rewards have been quite good as stated in their FAQ section “anywhere between 500-5000 Panel Reward points, which is equivalent to Rs.50-500”.

More recently they significantly reduced this to a meager "5000 points = 125 ZAR".

Not worth while anymore ....

only works for getting 20 points for trying, most of the studies are either quota full or paused within same day and quota full message will be displayed after at least five minutes, sometimes it gives the 20 minutes study for 20 points. what the heck!

total time waste from past year; earlier it was fine.

In may 2014 the milestone points were 2000. I tried to redeem in may but could not complete the process.
When in june 2014 i tried to redeem, it is informed that it requires 3000 points minimum.
There are no surveys for quite some time now.

The company is not even apologetic for inconvenience caused....... all they can say 'they have published that policies can be changed without information.'

Beware, before you invest your time and resources.

I used to do many surveys for The Panel Station, they used to send many surveys (at least once a week) and the minimum payout was attainable.

I had allowed my points to accumulate even after I had reached minimum redemption, and didn't cause a fuss when they changed their site and my points somehow went down. However, when I wanted to cash out about half my points (5000) for a kalahari voucher, I never received it. Bear in mind I'd been completing surveys with them for at least a year when I requested the voucher.

I had seen people on their facebook page saying they take about a month or so to pay out, so I waited. I had cashed out in July 2013, and at the end of September 2013 I was sick of waiting, so I wrote out a support ticket asking them why I still hadn't received it. They replied a week or two later, saying they'd sort out the issue within a week - I heard nothing further from them.

Last month I again sent them an email asking for some correspondence in regard to the matter, to which they said that they would update me in a week. It has been over 2 weeks and I'm still waiting.

I have done many surveys for them and when I wanted to cash out for a promised reward, they seem to be uninterested. Well, I haven't done surveys for them since the end of August 2013. I enjoy doing surveys, but on principle, this is just unacceptable when they promise a reward and don't deliver on it.

Don't waste your time. Seldom qualify or 15 min into a survey, after you have answered 90% of said Survey questions, you're cut off. Takes forever to earn points.
