Surveys that pay
I thought it might be a good idea for us to come up a list of audience / market research firms, primarily UK based, that offer paying surveys.
I have found the following thus far (haven't used any of these at the moment, but planning to sign up for and use the first):
https://www.populuslive.com - Seems to mostly offer political surveys
https://prolific.co - Apparently requires photo ID
https://www.respondent.io - Seems to be mostly be geared towards IT professionals
Found via https://www.reddit.com/r/beermoneyuk/co ... m_8_sites/
Have also found the following links that I will peruse later:
https://www.reddit.com/r/beermoneyuk/co ... om_abroad/
At this point, I should add the usual "buyer beware" disclaimer.

Re: Surveys that pay
Prolific isn't accepting any new participants due to being flooded with teenage girls. Currently you can only sign up to a waiting list.
The reason for their current issues is an entertaining story and well worth a read. It has however lead to a large number of scientific studies being abandoned.

The BBC's "More or Less" ran a segment on this recently

I caught that and it was a good listen; and a reminder to sanitise your data at the front end
On surveys... I've been doing them for https://www.vdcresearch.com/ for years
- not sure how I originally got involved (or how one would sign up now) it was that long ago
Surveys are generally by invite once you're on the books
- US based but rewards are in Amazon vouchers and they ship most places; typically 30USD for 15min web form, ~100USD for a 30min phone call

Re: Surveys that pay
I use Toluna and have done for years. They have improved overtime in adding points to your account and they also have Amazon gift card. The annoying thing is that you fill in a profile that should provide relevant surveys but it isn't doing its job ( probably due to the people who submit survey than the platform).

Re: Surveys that pay
MoneySavingExpert has a good list of survey sites. In terms of those that pay cash (as opposed to gift cards, etc), I have found PopulusLive, YouGov, and Panelbase to be fairly good and to have useful/interesting surveys. ValuedOpinions (gives gift card rewards) is also quite good.

I joined but find it VERY annoying
Every time i go to complete a survey it asks me questions such as age, and gender which are all in my profile already
Also the number of poits it say you get for a survey is NEVER what appears in you record
I have done 10 so far ranging from 25-85 points and 3 ponts EVERY time

I stopped participating because I found them very intrusive and do not like spraying my opinions around when if someone had a mind to, it would not be that difficult to identify me or at least as one of a fairly small group.

Re: Surveys that pay
I'm not as bothered as I used to be, GDPR has done a great job
look how all the junk snailmail and email has dried up compared to 4/5 years ago

Re: Surveys that pay
I used to do this OFFline. Visits to a small market research company above a shop on the high street. They frequently held focus/chat groups on various subjects. Dunno whether covid has driven this online now? Tastings can't be. Maybe worth having a walk down the high street to look.
Paid WAY better than online stuff, who have no shortage of volunteers. They always wanted middle class/professional people with money to spend. Much harder for advertisers to access than the poorer end of the community.
It was usually a couple of hours with nibbles watching tv commercials. But sometimes chatting about politics, charities, or tasting samples. Typically £40-50. Most I ever got paid was £80 for an evening telling the RSPB what I thought of their plans to buy up most of Java (not much). I also got paid to drink beer. Very proud of that one, professional beer drinker .

You really need to put that in your user profile.
What, no user profiles on Lemonfool?
