Most of our panels are comprised of professionals. We pay a significant premium over industry standard incentives for answering a brief survey or participating in a phone interview. We conduct brief online surveys — 5 minutes usually. Phone calls are typically 20-30 minutes. To compensate our panelists for their time; we use a variety of payment methods including Venmo, Amazon e-gift card, Upwork, Zelle, and checks by mail using BillPay through Bank of America.
If you have been contacted by us, here is more information about survey compensation:
We need to obtain a mailing address to send you checks.
If we pay you at least $600 per year in compensation in the US, we must send the IRS a completed Form 1099-MISC—and for that we will need a valid address and Tax ID or Social Security number. This is no different than any other business hiring independent consultants who are paid $600 or more in a calendar year by a business. We handle your TIN/EIN securely. If you prefer such information be kept off email, we accept it via regular mail, fax or protected PDF.
We process our payments fast– usually within a few minutes after a completed engagement. We are easy to work with and responsive to any issue that may arise with a payment.
If you are a respondent to one of our surveys or have been contacted by us and would like more information, please reach out to us via our Contact page. We will respond to you within 8 hours.
