Questions about Online Paid Surveys and The Survey Circle
Why are survey companies willing to pay me for filling out paid surveys?
The
answer to this is fairly straightforward… it is cheap for them!! You have probably had exposure to those
annoying telephone paid surveys. They call
you at odd times, take up your valuable time and then don't pay you for
it! So the paid survey companies are paying
the telephone operators an hourly rate with a very low success rate and no
guarantee of covering the demographic they want. By using online paid surveys, they have very low overheads, a 100%
target success rate and they can chose the demographic they want! So they are quite willing to pay a small fee
for your opinions. How do I find out about a new paid survey …?
In
general paid survey companies will send you an email informing you of new paid surveys However it still pays to check
your members pages every week. Are there particular times when I need to be available to complete paid surveys …?
No! You can do the paid surveys at any time
convenient to you. paid surveys are
generally open for a day or 2. However
it always pays to check your email a couple of times a day as some paid surveys
(especially the higher paid ones) can fill up quickly. How much time will it take for each paid survey …?
Most
paid surveys take less than 15minutes. The
time often depends on the amount the paid survey pays. Focus groups will usually take 1-2 hours (but they pay a lot
more). Are there any special
computer requirements…?
The
main requirement is a regular and reliable internet access. Other than that most paid surveys can be
completed with a minimal system. In
general paid surveys are able to operate cross-platform. Should
I be concerned about privacy issues…? You
should not be concerned about privacy.
Any transaction with The Survey Circle is done through a secure connection,
and all member details are maintained in the STRICTEST of confidentiality. All the companies in our database have been
checked to the best of our ability to ensure that they also follow a strict
confidentiality practice. How long after I sign up
will I be able to start earning money…?
Immediately
after you sign up with The Survey Circle you will be able to begin registering
with online paid survey companies. In most
cases it takes a few days to start receiving paid surveys, though it can be as
little as a few hours. Then depending
on your selected payment method, it is not uncommon to start getting your first
checks within less than 2 weeks. How often is your database
updated? Are the companies reputable…?
We
have someone who is employed to fulltime that checks the links to all the
companies listed in our database and updates as necessary. They are also constantly checking new paid survey
companies as they come online or are brought to our attention. With all the companies on the database we
make every effort to thoroughly check their legitimacy. Remember that for all these companies, you
the paid survey community are what makes their business possible. Therefore any company silly enough to
trouble their polling public would be killing their business in the process. How many paid survey companies do
you have in your database…?
The
number of companies on our international database is currently over 500, with a
large portion of these being available to people in any location. This number is dynamic as we are constantly
updating as we become aware of new companies or other companies stop trading. How is The Survey Circle
different from other paid survey database sites…?
Many
databases consist of almost the same lists that are often full of broken
links. We are constantly checking the
validity of our links and we personally research every company in our database. We have also spent many hundreds of hours
researching the database we now have and the legitimacy of the listed
companies. We
also have gone through and sorted out which paid survey companies service which
countries. Each member is then provided
with a list specific to their location.
Many databases require trying to register with every paid survey company,
before you find out that half of them don't even service your country, costing
you a lot of time. Here
at The Survey Circle we also pride ourselves on our customer service, with most
queries being replied to within a few hours. Questions about Getting Paid for Surveys
Can
anyone do this? Or do I need to fit a certain "profile"…? Yes
anyone over the age of 18 can do this!
And the only profile you need to fit is that you are willing to complete
the paid surveys! Some paid survey companies are
looking for people of a certain profile for a paid survey, but don't worry if you
don't fit that profile, for their next paid survey you possibly will! I have signed up with 10
companies, why haven't I got any paid survey offers!…?
Most
paid survey companies only send out 2 or 3 paid surveys a month. Therefore you should register with many more
than 10 companies to start getting more paid surveys. How much time must I invest
to make good money…?
That
depends on what you feel is good money.
The more time you invest, the more money you will make. Once you have signed up with as many
companies as you can, you will soon be able to pick and chose which paid surveys you
take. Then you can earn up to a couple
of hundred dollars a month for as little as 1-2 hours a day. How do I get paid? By who
and how much…?
There
are a few different ways that you can get paid. Many paid survey companies will pay into a PayPal account if you have
registered with one. Generally though,
companies will send out a cheque to your registered mailing address. Some companies pay every paid survey, others pay
once a month. You are normally paid directly
from the paid survey company. Depending on
the paid survey, you can be paid from $4 to $25 Do I need to have a PayPal
account to get paid for my surveys…?
No you
don't need a PayPal account, but it certainly makes things easier! With a PayPal account some paid survey companies
will deposit your money within minutes of completing the paid survey. Do I have to declare the
money I make for taxation…?
Unfortunately
due to legal requirements we can't give you any specific advice on
taxation. However generally we can tell
you that you will have to tell the tax office what you earn. But we HIGHLY recommend that once you start
earning you check with a tax specialist in your area. Registration
& Membership Questions
Why is there a membership
fee to join The Survey Circle…?
If
you were to try to compile the list of paid survey companies that we have, it would
take you hundreds of hours signing up and wading through all the companies on
the web just to find the ones that actually do offer paid surveys. We have already done that for you!!! So effectively you are paying the small fee
for us performing hundreds of hours of work! Also
we employ people to constantly check, update and maintain the database, so the
fee covers their wages. If we didn't do
this we would be like the other databases, with a list full of broken links! But you get an up-to-date database that is
always adding new companies and looking out for new bonuses for our members. Why is the fee in $US…?
This
is an international company that operates in many countries, therefore we use US
dollars as it is a standard that nearly all banks recognise, making it easier
for membership payments. However we are
currently exploring the option of having multiple currencies available on our
sign-up page. This feature should be
available in the next few months. Why can't you take the
$25 from paid survey earnings…?
We
would if we could! However we are not a paid survey
company ourselves nor do we take commission from the paid survey companies. The
paid survey companies pay you
your money directly, so we cannot take the fee from your first few cheques. Can affiliate earnings be used to pay my $25 fee?
Yes! Absolutely! We will happily deduct your membership fee from your first few affiliate commissions. However this means you will not be able to access the
paid survey database until the fee is paid. Are there any other fees or
ongoing charges…?
No,
there are no other hidden fees or ongoing charges associated with the online
paid surveys database!! The $25 is a onetime
only fee!! However
we are developing further methods for our members to make money online, when
these become available you will have the OPTION to purchase them for a very
small fee (less than $25!). Can I pay using a method
other than PayPal when registering…?
Yes,
you can pay with your Visa card, Mastercard or American express credit card as
well as being able to pay with PayPal and ClickBank. Is it safe to use my credit
card online, as I would like to signup today…?
It
is very safe to use your credit card online.
In fact it is far more secure than using your credit card at the local
grocery store! Is
there a limit to how many friends I can refer to get my $17 cash back…? No. We do not condone the use of spam emailing
to gain referrals as this is not a pyramid scheme. We dont restrict the number of referred friends, however any reported instances of spamming will be investigated fully and could result in the termination of your membership. The idea of the $17 cashback is to make our
service to you virtually free! It is
also so that you can share this opportunity with friends and family. How soon will I get my $17
cash back after referring a friend…?
Referral cashbacks will be processed every 2 weeks.
The reason for this is that there will be less processing costs than if
we sent a check for every $17 cashback.
Otherwise it would not be feasible for us. Also referrals commissions will only be forwarded once the referring member/affiliate has paid their membership. Affiliate commissions CAN be used to pay for the affiliates membership. Last revised: 10/01/06 |
