Pandaresearch.com Review

Filed under: Online Surveys — Tags: , — Cash for Surveys @ 10:36 pm

Pandaresearch.com is a very good online survey site. Ever since I began doing surveys at home for money, Pandaresearch has been one of my favorite haunts.

There are literally hundreds of online money making schemes. Many of them are just that – schemes. The trick to finding a legitimate online survey company is to do a little research. If a site promises $10,000, chances are it’s a scam. A trip to the Bahamas? It’s a scam. But when they offer you $3 to do a 10 minute survey, chances are it’s legitimate.

I’ve been participating in online surveys since I had some time while my kids were down. While these sites will not pay your mortgage, or make you wealthy, they are a good way to earn a few extra dollars when you have some free time.

The thing I like about Pandaresearch.com is that it’s easy. The surveys generally only last about 10 minutes and pay anywhere from $3 to $10. It’s not a lot of money, but it sure beats watching daytime television.

Signing up for this site is easy. If you are thinking of having several e-mail accounts and doing repetitive surveys, don’t. Only one person per address can sign up for this site. And IP addresses are easy to check. Take it slow and realize the process for what it is – a chance to earn a few bucks while sitting at home.

There are a variety of surveys to choose from at Pandaresearch.com. Many of them are free, but be wary of those who offer $45. The surveys that pay more than $10 often have a catch. Like switching your telephone carrier. Unless you are seriously thinking of doing this, avoid this type of survey. You might end up spending more in transferring your telephone service than you make in the survey.

The best thing about pandaresearch.com is that they pay through Paypal instead of by check. Signing up for a paypal account is easy and the site has a link to Paypal that will walk you through it. For those of you who are leery of Paypal, don’t be. I’ve been using Paypal for a number of years and have yet had any money stolen. Paypal is a free service and you can request a debit card from them for no charge. In addition, you can transfer money to and from your bank account without any fees. The debit card has a Mastercard logo and can be used anywhere credit cards are taken. Best of all, for each purchase you make using your Paypal card as a credit card, you get money back into your account.

The only problem with pandaresearch.com is that you have to accumulate $100 in your account before you receive payment. But it’s not difficult to do. Unlike some survey companies, they will not “kick you off the site” for inactivity. So you can participate in surveys at your leisure. Then, when you have accumulated $100, simply ask to have the money transferred to your Paypal account. It’s really very simple. However, the process does take four weeks for completion.

The surveys range from vacation getaways to shoes. You will not be turned down for any survey. In order to qualify for to be a pandaresearch panelist, you must be a United States resident at least 18 years of age and have a valid e-mail address. They will not accept an anonymous e-mail address, such as a hotmail account or yahoo account. No proxy servers will be accepted. And, again, only one person from each household can qualify.

Online surveys can be a fun way to make money while sitting online. If you have an opinion and like to shop, this is an excellent way to make some extra money in your spare time.

Survey Savvy Review

Filed under: Online Surveys — Tags: , — Cash for Surveys @ 5:01 am

Survey Savvy is an online paid survey company owned by Luth Research, LLC, an international market research firm that’s been around for 30 years. Surveysavvy is free to join and participants earn cash for each survey completed.

The site boasts of having over 1.5 million registered members worldwide. Joining is relatively easy, although the questionnaire requirements are extensive. Expect to be asked a series of demographic questions, including your race, whether or not you own a home, your occupation and how many people reside in your household. If you have children, they will ask for their year of birth and gender.

Once you’ve completed the three page questionnaire and submit it to the site, you’ll receive confirmation of acceptance via e-mail within 24 hours. The purpose of the questionnaire determines your eligibility to participate in certain surveys.

Surveys are sent to you via e-mail on a periodic basis. This is a legitimate site, so don’t expect a flood of e-mails from them. Some of the surveys are extensive and relate to employment, and some are just fun, like viewing a YouTube video and giving your opinion. The cash incentive for each survey completed begins at $3 and generally tops off at $25, depending upon the time spent answering the questions.

Occasionally, participants with children will be asked to have their children complete a survey relating to their age group, however any payment is directed to the person who registers with the site. Surveysavvy is very careful about their verification process; in some instances, you may be contacted by telephone to verify the contents of the survey.

One way to make money through this site is referring friends. The site pays you $2 for each friend who signs up for the program through you and an additional $1 for each survey they complete. If you have a website or blog, you can earn money easily by referring people to the site through a link provided to you once you’re accepted.

Although you do not have to participate in every survey offered, one caveat is that the site will impose a service charge of $1 if your account remains inactive for a year. Those who decide to participate in a variety of online surveys for cash must be careful to maintain activity with your account or cancel your membership to the site; however, the charge will never result in any negative balance to your account. They simply take the money from the money you’ve already earned with the site. There is no danger of receiving a bill from them or having your telephone bill charged.

If you continue to participate in the surveys and refer other people to the Surveysavvy, you can find yourself earning a few extra dollars per month. The site is very clear about adhering to IRS rules; if you earn more than $600 in a year, you need to complete a W-9 or 1099 form for the IRS and declare the earnings.

SurveySavvy.com is also very strict in maintaining an anti-spam policy as well as keeping your information private. Although you may be contacted by Surveysavvy by telephone to confirm your participation in a survey, they will never provide third parties with your personal information. The company has been around for many years and has an excellent reputation within the online survey community, according to several people I’ve spoken to who participate in frequent online surveys.

I have only two problems with this site. One is that you can’t choose which surveys in which you participate. Surveysavvy decides whether or not you’re eligible and sends you the e-mail, so you have no control over how many surveys you can take. The other problem is the time element. It can take a couple of days before your completed survey is “validated.”

The good news is that you won’t receive spam, you won’t receive telemarketing calls and you will get paid for your time. And referrals can end up earning you easy cash.
