Panda…Panda..Panda.. What can I say?

Panda Research has gotten a bad reputation from a lot of people, but a lot of people have also given this company good remarks. That said, I tried my luck and it PAID off BIG time. I’m not talking chump change folks, I just checked my e-mail and to my surprise I had a PayPal deposit for $50.00 big ones.

Their surveys are non-traditional meaning they offer some surveys  that require a credit card as well as one that don’t require a credit card. Initially the credit card requirement turned me off but the overall payout per survey intrigued me enough to complete a few offers. Payouts are processed on the first and fifth of each month “post” payment request. Meaning if you request a payment in July before the 1st, then you will receive your payment August 1st.

The minimum cash value required to request a payment is $50.00 which may sound like a lot but considering the average survey is between $3.00-$75.00. I have no idea what the frequency of surveys are per profile but on average there are at least 10-15 surveys available at any given time; you can earn $50.00+ in no time.

I can’t speak for everyone but this is definitely one company I intended to continue doing business with!

ACOP! ACOP! ACOP! – I’m not talking about the police I’m referring to the American Consumer Opinion Panel!

They are one of the top panels available with very generous survey rewards and a low cash-out threshold. A survey can range from $1.00-$50.00. You need a minimum of $10.00 to cash out via check or PayPal. It takes about 3-4 days after requesting your payment (via PayPal) to get the money into your account. If you request a check it may take from 2-3 weeks to be processed and received. Their surveys are very interesting and often lead to product trials (PT’s). This company has been around for quite some time and has been tried and tested. They are 100% legit, so get it while the getting is good.

MySurvey offers a nice variety of prizes for a relatively low amount of points. Your points can be redeemed for cash (checks/PayPal), electronics, or other items. When you do not qualify for a survey you earn an entry in the $10K sweepstakes. The minimum cash out is $10.00 (1,150 points), one lucky member wins 10,000 points every day.

They typically send out 4-5 surveys a week and they range from 10-15 minutes. There is a referral and affiliate program so the earning potential is there. Affiliates can refer up to (at minimum) 10 members a month totaling 1,500 points a month.

PineCone Research is at the forefront of “online research”, today’s sophisticated and leading-edge approach to gathering consumer opinions. Consumer input is vital to the development of new and improved products.

Traditional survey methods, although effective, can be inconvenient and time consuming. Online research helps solve this dilemma. With online research, you can answer surveys from the comfort and convenience of your own PC and at a time that is convenient for you.

You can be paid in USD$ in one of two ways: PayPal or by check. PayPal payments are made a day after the survey is complete, and checks usually take 2-3 days to come in the mail. Cash amounts vary between $3.00 to $5.00.

I personally don’t recieve many surveys from them on a weekly basis, but I probably get about 5 or 6 surveys a month from PineCone Research. All in all this is a very good company with interesting surveys, product trials, and prompt payments. PineCone is very selective of its members so when you see them accepting members I’d recommend you join sooner than later.

On average you’ll receive 1 or 2 surveys a month and sometimes you’ll qualify for product evaluations.Surveys tend to last 15 to 20 minutes, and sometimes you get pet or household questionnaires that earn you entry’s in the $500 sweepstakes. You get paid 24hrs after successfully completing the survey via PayPal.

Netverdix is a very unique company but they are legit. I joined this company late May and complete two surveys early/mid-April and recieved my first PayPal payment from the company yesterday for $8.00. The surveys are pretty straight forward so you’ll know before you invest your time whether or not you will actually qualify.

I don’t like the fact that the payments are processed 1 month from the date of completion, but I must admit it is nice to get a e-mail from PayPal saying “You’ve got money!” I surely forgot I had even completed any surveys from this company and they surprised me with a payment. Incentives range from $3.00 to $5.00 and all payments are processed through PayPal. The minimum payout is capped at $1.00 so anyone can achieve this balance and cash out!

As I’ve stated earlier you won’t make it rich by taking these surveys but every little bit helps. If you have 15-30 minutes you can spare then this is a viable company for you.

SurveySavvy is one of the few legacy survey companies that are still in business (inception 1999)  and are going strong.
I normally receive between 2-3 surveys a week ranging from $1.00-$20.00. If you qualify and complete the survey your account will be credited within 4-6 weeks. There is no minimum payout level, so if you make $1.00 and want your check simply request it and you’ll get a dollar check within 4-6 weeks.

One of my favorite things about SurveySavvy would have to be their focus groups; They have a lot of exclusive companies paying top dollar for your participation in a forum type atmosphere. Some focus groups pay you in gift cards, cash or another prizes/rewards.You can also get paid for each individual you refer; Savvy will pay you $2.00 every time a referral qualifies and completes a survey.

This is a must have for any would-be survey connoisseur.

“Esearch.com, Inc. has provided on-line market research since 1995. The company was one of the first to develop an online research panel… and it continues to be one of the best. Our panelists have provided opinions on everything from food items to political scandals – and many other products and services in-between.” – Esearch.com

Almost didn’t make it this month, but I managed to squeeze one in. Anyhow, Let’s get straight to it!
*The Good*: If you qualify for the survey, you get paid.
*The Bad*: You receive a low number of survey invites.
*Overall*: Interesting surveys for variable amounts ($1.00-$10.00) and the lengths are reasonable.

Opinion Outpost is a research panel. It is a community of individuals who agree to share their views and opinions by answering survey questions from leading marketing research companies all over the world as well as many Fortune 500 companies. It is a fun way to learn about and influence the products and services you use every day. As a “Thank You” for your participation Opinion Outpost offers Opinion Points, which can be redeemed for cash.

10 Opinion Points = $1.00 and you must accumulate a minimum of 50 Opinion Points ($5.00) before redeeming or requesting payment. Checks are usually sent 3-4 weeks after a request for payment has been made.

The number of surveys you receive depends on how many profiles you fill out and how often you update them. On average you’ll receive between 5-8 surveys a month varying from 10 points to 150 points. Surveys fill up fast so its recommended that you take the survey as soon as you get the invitation.

CreationsRewards is one of many incentive earning programs on the net, it is similar to MyPoints, Milesource, and scores of others, that gives rewards to users for tasks such as shopping through their links, click throughs on the site, and daily searches. Points can be earned by:

-Daily/Weekly Banner Zone-These are click through links on the site that can be visited daily and weekly to garner points ranging from 1-3 per visit.
-Paid Signups-This area offers varying points incentives for completing the offers.
-Refer Friends-This is an easy way to accumulate points.
-Search-Points may be earned daily for running a search on a number of varying search engines.

This company is pretty straight forward i.e. why the review is so short, that and I’m not a nitpicker; They follow the “TSGP” motto.

Take a survey, qualify, make $1.00. Sounds easy enough right? Well it is!!

“There is no registration, minimum payouts, gimmicks or gambles. Just enter your PayPal-enabled email address and we’ll send you directly to a survey. Qualify for and complete the entire survey, and we will send a $1.00 payment to your PayPal email address within a week.” – DollarSurveys.net

For the most part this statement is 99.9% accurate, the only catch is that sometimes you receive a survey in the form of an “offer.” Meaning you are subjected to receive payment for the survey once you signup for a trial or a product. The amount of surveys appear to be limitless, and they vary from normal to offer form but there is a good balance. I’ve only been a member of DollarSurveys.net for roughly three weeks and I got my first payment ($1.00) today.

Vindale Research has a three-part introductory period which basically tells you what you can expect from them and what they expect from you. After my waiting period was over my first official survey came in for $25.00

It’s a essentially a two part process:
1) Evaluate the product by using it. (Sometimes requiring a credit card, sometimes not.)
2) Complete the survey. (Fairly short questionnaire. 15-30min)

Unbelievable right? Well if it looks too good to be true it probably is, and that was the case for me. To qualify for this survey I would have to sign up for Blockbuster’s online movie rental trial which requires a credit card. Which means I would have to come out of pocket for a minimum of $4.80, which compared to the $25.00 I’d be earning isn’t so bad because I’d still turn a profit. ($25-($4.49 x 7%)) = $20.20…..Of course if I wanted to pay to take surveys I’d join Whatgrade.com

Once you reach a balance of $50.00 you can submit a request for payment via check or PayPal. Check payments take two weeks longer than PayPal, but the distribution process starts the same time PayPal payments are made. (Payments are automatically processed on the 15th and last day of every month.)
