Get Paid For Surveys In Money,
Prizes, Gifts And Free Samples

Around 30% of the market research companies pay only in money. Others offer prizes, gift vouchers and even supply free product samples for you to keep.

After you have been a member for a while you could be asked to take part in a research focus group. You can get paid for giving your opinion on products or brands. Attending focus groups usually pays well.

1. Get paid for surveys in money

Often, but not always, you will get paid for surveys in U.S. funds. If you do not reside in the U.S.A. you simply deposit your survey payments with your bank and they will convert the U.S. funds to your local currency automatically. Here is a rough guide to what you might (depending on the survey directory or research company) potentially get paid for surveys or attending focus groups:

• Get paid for surveys and some will pay $1, others might pay $10 or more
• Get paid to attend focus groups and earn $30, or even $60, or more
• Some survey directories even allow you to get paid for phone surveys
• Attending focus groups you could get paid for testing new products
• Other survey directories offer opportunities to get paid to preview new movie trailers

So completing questionnaires or attending focus groups can be very rewarding.

A final word from Walter D Wintle:

If You Think

If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don’t!
If you want to win, but think you can’t,
It’s almost a cinch you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost;
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellow’s will;
It’s all in the state of the mind.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger and faster man,
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.

Walter D. Wintle

2. Get paid for surveys in gift vouchers, prizes, free product samples and more…

Some paid survey directories reward in gift vouchers for places like Amazon.com, Target, Walmart, etc. This is almost the same as cash since you can buy stuff you would buy. Let's face it, a $50 gift voucher redeemable at Amazon.com is in reality almost as good as money.

Around 62% of the major market research companies reward survey participants in ‘Money & Prizes’. What this means is that on some occasions they reward in cold hard cash, and at other times they will reward you with gifts, prizes, free products, points that are redeemable for cash or prizes, etc.

So, as an example, one month a market research company could offer a free product, or prize draw (usually the odds are really good!), and the next month the same company might offer a $50 - $100 survey and/or the opportunity of attending focus groups.

This is why I strongly suggest that you get yourself registered with several paid survey directories, because you just never know which companies will be offering what, and when. Here's a tip; do NOT make the mistake of only registering only with those listed as paying only in cash. The research company may want to just offer you vouchers initially until they know you are a reliable participant.

The remaining 11% typically pay only in prizes, free products or ‘points’. Points are often redeemable for money or gifts. You just have to build up your points before getting paid.

To summarize: Yes you too can get paid for surveys and attending focus groups. They are a very popular and absolutely proven way to earn money from home. Simply register with several paid survey directories, because they will each have different databases of reliable market research companies. Have a go because like so many other people worldwide, you too can get paid for surveys online.

It is a fact that a lot of people get paid for surveys online and make hundreds or even thousands of dollars in the process. The important first step is to get registered with at least one paid survey directory.
