Paying Surveys & Focus GroupsPage 3 of 3Page three of our listing of paid survey and paying focus group opportunities for worldwide panelists. These companies will primarily pay you to complete surveys but there are also opportunities to participate in paid focus group discussions, get paid to test products, earn from completing short polls as well as many entering you into sweepstakes and prize draws amongst other things. US/Canadian and UK/European visitors to Lazy Cat Surveys will find they are elligible to join and be paid for their opinions at most of the sites listed in this section but in addition will also find country specific paid survey sites in the respective sections accessed through the site menu. To see our favourite survey companies here!
Open worldwide. Eyecloud are an American company who welcome members worldwide. They claim to send out between 2-12 surveys per year(I'm yet to see one but they may just favour US residents) which will take between 5 and 15 minutes to complete, paying either a cash sum of between $1-$10 or an entry into an sweepstake for $100-$500. Some surveys require screener questions to acquire eligibilty which are non-paying but will need to be completed to gain entry to the survey. All cheques are sent out in US dollars regardless of country of residence which is worth bearing in mind should your bank charge for handling cheques in foreign currencies. Open worldwide. PTS Services is an interesting company because they will send you products to test which you then get to keep. By their very nature as an internet company, these are often computer related products but often encompass other areas as well. You are not obliged to take these products and test them of course, an email invitation will be sent out to you and it's up to you whether you accept or not. Where a product has no real value a monetary or other for of renumeration will be arranged instead. Open to...??? It would appear Market Facts is open worldwide but I tried entering many different countries of origin(just as a test for this section) and was told they were not recruting from those countries(including their home country!) so it looks like they limit membership and they are rather full at the moment. I'll keep checking back though because they are currently partaking in a merger with another company which might have put a freeze on new members until it is completed. Umm, anyway new members are entered into an automatic sweepstake for one prize of $1,000 and 10 runners up prizes of $100 for their joining month and other surveys are rewarded or not, depending on their length and type so best to check first. Watch this space for any hints they are recruiting again. Open worldwide. Membership of the eVal panel gives you the opportunity to express your opinion and earn cash, prize draw entries or other rewards depending upon the study undertaken. As a member you may be invited to answer online surveys, evaluate products and services or test and evaluate websites. Participation in the surveys you wil receive is voluntary but it is worth noting they suggest they will remove 'inactive' members from their database... Open worldwide. Register with Buzzback and they will send you email invitiations to their surveys whenever you meet their demographic requirements. The basic rewards are $5 per survey completed although longer ones are paid more and you may be invited back to participate in a focus group or to complete a lengthier survey dependant upon your answers which will naturally pay more. The nice thing here is all surveys pay directly(i.e. no prize draws!) but they are known to fill up quickly as a result...
