 Saros Research

Saros Research pays you to take part in focus groups, discussions groups, interviews or paid surveys. They provide detailed consumer research information for a host of well known UK companies and cover a wide range of sectors including mobile phone providers, wines, IT products, home cleaning products, cars and many more areas.

You can expect to be well compensated for your efforts because of the time commitment involved and Saros states that this generally means between £30 and £50 for between 2-3 hours research, plus you often get to keep the products/samples that you give your opinions upon. We have found this to be accurate and whilst we have found the frequency of paid surveys to be lower with this site, the compensation involved is excellent. Typically you might get an invite to paid discussions and focus groups every 6 months (although it can be longer), but this depends upon your individual profile. Click Here To Visit Saros Research

 Fhios

Fhios offer a range of paid surveys, mystery visitor, usability studies and focus group opportunities, all of which are great way to express you opinions whilst earning money. The mystery visitor paid survey opportunities are especially fun as you could be invited to give an honest opinion on a new website that is being developed, testing it out even before it is commercially available online. Typically you would be expected to complete a set of specific paid survey questions provided by the client organisation and score the website accordingly. This could be related to site navigation and easy of use or the content contained within the site and will generally last around 30 minutes. Payments for this type of paid survey are typically around £20 per time and all payments are made by cheque seven days after the survey has closed.

Usability studies and focus groups are more involved and would require travel to take part, if you decided to participate. However the rewards are significant offering around £50 per session, often more, and they can last between 1 to 2 hours in length. On these occasions participants are paid by cheque on the day.

 Focusline

Focusline are an international provider of paid surveys which encompass a number of different companies worldwide, including UK residents. UK residents aged 13 and over can participate in paid survey opportunities through the site, although parental permission is required for those under the age of sixteen.

The great feature of Focusline is that they provide both online paid surveys and chat based focus groups, which take place through online forums and are guided by a research assistant. There are a good range of paid survey opportunities available, however they appear less frequent than other sites. This is compensated for by the cash rewards members receive which are usually between $25 (£12.50) and £45 (£22.50) per paid activity, approximately. All earnings are paid in US dollars, but because they pay via PayPal, which converts foreign currency into GBP for free, then there is no problem. Typically, paid surveys last between 10 and 30 minutes and online focus groups between 30 minutes to one hour.

There is no minimum threshold to accumulate before getting paid. Instead members are paid once the paid activities are completed and closed, a process that on average takes 8 weeks. Click Here To Visit Focusline
