Paid Survey Plan - Because Your Opinion Does Matter

FAQ's - Frequently Asked Questions

What are surveys?
Surveys are questionnaires designed to educate companies what their customers think about their products and services. They can be done online, in person, or over the phone. None of the surveys we keep in our database are in person, so you never have to leave home. The answers from the participants are then compiled by the market research company and presented to their client.

Do companies really pay people to take surveys?
Yes! Thousands of people are making money by taking online surveys every day. We ourselves participate in many surveys, as well as many of our friends and family. It is a wonderful way for anyone to earn some extra cash, whether you are a stay-at-home mom, student, or anyone who has a little extra free time. Many people participate in surveys for a living, and don't even have another job. However, you must be at least 18 years of age.

Can I do this from anywhere? I do not live in the US.
YES. You do not have to live in the United States to participate in online surveys or focus groups. Most of these questions are general and have to do with your online activity or one’s general personal opinions. Anyone can do it from anywhere in the world.

Are there any special computer, hardware or software requirements?
No. If you are reading this now it means you already have an internet access and a basic web browsing software (like Internet Explorer…) that you will need to take surveys and get paid for your opinions. It does not matter if you are using Windows, Macintosh, or even WebTV.

Do I get paid per survey? How much?
The pay for each survey varies, but depending on its length, you can get paid anywhere up to $50 per survey! Most companies will simply pay you cash, but some will compensate your time with products, gift certificates, etc. Some will enter you into drawings for large cash prizes, let you earn points that can be used to buy products, or redeem these points for cash.

How will I be paid and how often?
The company you will be doing the survey for will pay you by company check by postal mail in US dollar (bring it to a bank near you to cash them). Most paychecks are sent twice monthly some will pay once a month.

What about income taxes?
You will be responsible for your own tax management. Taxes are not deducted from the survey paid amount. Each survey pay amount is the final amount paid for that individual survey. You are not required to fill out a W-9 or any other federal documents.

How long is each survey? How long is each focus group? How much time will it take me?
With surveys, much depends on your own speed, but generally we would estimate 10-15 minutes per survey. Focus Groups could vary even greater. A focus group could last anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours, and generally with the pay increasing the longer the company needs you!

How soon I can get started and make some money?
Once you sign-up you can start immediately. This is not to say you will be offered surveys or make money within an hour after joining, but there are several things you need to do in preparation of taking surveys, and you can do these things immediately after your sign-up.

Some will start receiving surveys within a few of hours, but the average wait is usually at least a couple of days. It really depends on your personal "profile", and which companies you register with.

Please keep in mind that many market research companies only send out 1-4 surveys a month. With these it will take at least a few weeks before you are entered into their system and start receiving surveys from them, depending on when you register.

For example, if you only register with 10 programs and they all happen to only send out 1 survey a month, it will take at least a few weeks before you see any surveys.

It's very important to register with as many survey companies as possible. You will NOT make a lot of money from just a few companies. We introduce you to hundreds of companies, so the more you register with the more surveys you will receive. It's that simple. Once you get going you can do surveys every day.

Unfortunately, we can't tell you which companies are "best" for you because it really depends on you - who you are, where you live, what you do for a living, and all of the other things that make your personal "profile" which is what determines the surveys you'll be offered.

But don't worry, because shortly after you register you'll know which ones are best for you. Most people end up favoring 20-30 companies that send them the "best" surveys.

What I can tell you is that I have personally registered with more than 250 companies, and I receive more survey invitations than I can possibly handle. There are a lot of people like me who make thousands of dollars each month from surveys and focus groups. It's entirely up to YOU!

I've heard that you shouldn't have to pay to get paid. Can you explain?
We agree, with one point of clarification. You should never pay any company in order to perform work for them and get paid. No legitimate company would charge you a fee to perform work for them.

The small one-time fee you pay to become a member of PaidSurveyPlan is NOT for the opportunity to work for us - because we don't conduct any surveys and we are not the ones that will be paying you.

What you are paying for is an unlimited access to our private members-only website, our database of hundreds of the best paid survey opportunities, our experience, and detailed tips, tricks and strategies that will help you to make as much money as possible.

In short, the small one-time fee is required because we spend a tremendous amount of time finding, researching, and evaluating all of the companies, developing our private members-only website and its database, while making it all available for you. You'll find it's a tremendous value.

Does the membership fee recur? Is that a monthly fee? Are there any other fees?
No. We charge a one-time small fee of $49. We are investing a lot of time and money in finding and verifying all the companies that will pay you for surveys. This fee covers up our costs so you can be rewarded for your opinion.

Why is there sale fee?
The most difficult part about making money with paid surveys is finding and sorting through all the market research programs out there. Some of them are "scams": they don't pay as promised, they bombard you with more advertising, their telemarketers call you during dinner, etc.

It would take you months to find, evaluate, and keep track of all the good opportunities out there!

The service we provide will save you a tremendous amount of time, hassle, and "trial and error". We have many years of experience with paid surveys, and our private website lists the best paid survey opportunities - and it's updated regularly.

Plus, our members-only website also provides detailed tips, tricks, and strategies that will help you to make more money, as quickly and as easily as possible.

To sum up, the small one-time fee is required because we spend a tremendous amount of time finding, researching, and evaluating all of the survey companies, developing our private members-only website, and making it all available to you. You'll find it is a great value.

How many surveys can a Member participate in each day?
There is no limit to the number of surveys you can take in any given day, as long as you qualify for them (you must be at least 18 years old to qualify).

How much can I make?
You can potentially earn several thousand dollars every month, depending on how actively you participate in the surveys. Hundreds to thousands of people are needed daily to take each and every survey out there.

What do you mean by “qualify”?
Clearly not everyone can take every survey. If you are a father who works all day you would not quality for a survey about stay at home moms or daily child care. A woman on the other hand, would not qualify for a survey about men's purchasing habits or say views about a men's magazine. Some surveys are very general, so anyone can take them (for example, what type of pain medication you take when you have a headache). Some surveys will be more specific and need someone from the targeted sex, age, work, or lifestyle.

Is my personal information safe?
The personal information you will provide to these companies is used to determine your eligibility for evaluations and to group the answers you provide with other evaluators. You, the evaluator, are the lifeline of these market research companies. Therefore, your personal information will be kept as a very secured piece of information. Nevertheless, we do recommend that you make sure you review each company’s privacy policy before you sign up. We will never share or sale your private information!

How many pay in cash vs. free products, points, etc.?
At this time, 28% of the market research companies in our database pay only in cash.

A few of these pay in gift certificates to vendors like Amazon.com, Target, Wal-Mart, etc. which we consider to be the same as cash since you can buy things there you would buy anyway. As far as we concern, a $50 gift certificate to Target or Wal-Mart is in reality just as good as cash.

Another 61% of the market research companies in our database reward their survey takers via "Cash & Prizes". What this means is that sometimes they pay in cold hard cash, and other times they might reward you with prizes, free products, "points" that could be redeemed for cash or prizes, etc.

It is important to understand how today’s market research works ...

Nine out of ten times a market research firm is hired by another company to conduct research and surveys on their behalf. Consequently, the reward or incentive for any particular survey usually depends on what the market research companies' client is offering at that given time.

For example, one month a market research company might offer a free product or a prize drawing (usually the odds are pretty good!), and the next month they may offer a $50 to $150 survey and/or focus group. It all depends on what their current clients are offering them.

This is exactly why we strongly recommend that you get yourself registered with as many of the market research companies as you possibly can. You just never know who will be offering what, and when. Do NOT make the mistake of only registering with a few companies!

Finally, the remaining 11% currently pay only in prizes, free products and/or "points". Points redeemable for cash are great; you just have to accumulate before getting paid.
