How do I get paid for taking a survey?

Get paid for taking a survey with Greenfield Online – it is easy! To view the rewards associated with your survey participation you will need to access the Rewards Center page. After logging into the website, just click on the Rewards Center tab on the top of the page. Please note that there is normally a delay after taking a survey before the cash reward appears in your account. That is because cash rewards can only be credited once the entire study has closed and no new participants are entering, which sometimes takes several weeks. However, the prize draw entry you receive for every survey you take will be credited immediately. You can request the earnings in your member account by going to Rewards Center and clicking on the "Request a payment" link. After you request a payment, a check will be sent to the postal address details you have given us in your profile. We suggest that you double-check these details before making the payment request. The entire check processing cycle normally takes 6-8 weeks from the time that the request is made. You can check the status of your payment request on your Rewards Center page. Your payment request should appear there with one of the following status codes: Received - This means that the request has been entered in our database. Processing - A check number has been issued for your request, and final authorization is pending. Processed - Your check has been released for mailing. You should receive it within a couple of weeks after this status message appears. Greenfield Online makes it a priority for all members to get paid their rewards for taking online surveys.

Do free paid surveys exist?

Free paid surveys do exist! Greenfield Online has always been a free paid survey community. We at Greenfield Online will never ask you for money or try to sell you anything, as we are only interested in your opinions and thoughts. There are several reasons why you should never pay to take part in paid online surveys. Market research companies as a whole are prohibited from charging people to participate in surveys. Any research company or organization that requires payment from you to participate in a survey should be avoided. Sites similar to Greenfield Online often charge a membership fee that will gain you access to their database of paid surveys. Greenfield Online has made that process seamless for our member’s with their own personal SurveyCenter. In the SurveyCenter you will be presented all survey opportunities that match your profile information and the reward associated for completing that survey. There should NEVER be a reason to pay for a list of surveys when Greenfield Online provides access to a personal list of paid surveys for you at any time!
