Survey Taking Experience

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.

1/35 Surveys qualify. Ridiculous.

January 29, 2024 by Lor from United States

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.

No support and no points Stay Away!

May 29, 2023 by Jan from South Africa

It used to be great but under current dishonest management The Panel Station works like this:
You perfectly complete the survey to the end and they get the money from their client who wanted surveys.
But you never get your points.
Then you complain, and a bot gives you an auto-reply so you complain that they did not even look at the complaint.
They never look at your actual case but keep giving you auto-replies about things that could have disqualified you even though you state over and over again that it did NOT happen, the survey was completed and submitted without problems for example Survey 175313.
In other words, your time is taken for no reward and they do not care. I have not received points for the last 9 surveys, a whole year wasted on fighting for what I am owed, so I quit.
Stay away from The Panel Station, they use you.
One would think after 10 years and a legend member badge it would bother them to lose me, but current dishonest management don't care.
Survey 175313 is just one of dozens of fails by TPS.
Either you change management or you lose all of us, TPS, look at all the complaints on this forum!

Zero support and total collapse of credibility at TPS

May 26, 2023 by Dima from Namibia

After the first month or so, you never again get the points or prizes your earned. Hundreds of hours go to waste.
If you complain, PanelStation only auto-responds, nobody ever really looks at your complaint.
Because they KNOW they are dishonest.
It was better years ago, TPS has collapsed under current management. "at panel support" is the worst HQ email, if you complain about their auto-replies, they just block you.
If they cared about bad SurveyPolice ratings, they would INVESTIGATE the dozens of complains here, but they won't.
Survey 175313 is just one of dozens of fails by TPS.

It has become a mess

May 23, 2023 by Evert from Zimbabwe

When you are being recruited, TPS is full of points and benefits, but once you're there it stops. The points disappear every time you submit a completed survey. You keep on trying because it worked before, and they keep selling your time without giving you the points.
In addition there is no service. The "panelsupport" email should rather be "panelignored". You could just as well talk to a bot.
