Multiple applications required…

I agree with some of the other people that you can apply multiple times for focus groups and never get a response
. Everything requires a Web cam . I've been in cosmetics 50 years and wasn't picked for the cosmetics focus groups.

The rewards are mostly useless.

The focus groups are fine. It's just a waste of time because no-one will accept the Visa reward. The only time it worked was when I chose Amazon, and they did give me credit. But the regular Visa reward card has been refused by every store in which I tried to use it.

Hey Elaine! Based on your review, we think there may be some confusion here. FocusGroups.org promotes paid market research opportunities from various companies on our site, and do our best to make it clear that the company hosting the study and contacting qualified candidates would be the one to pay you.

If on the Study Detail page it were to list FocusGroups.org as the company hosting the focus group, then you would expect payment from us. Our payments are processed through our Members Portal in their Earnings, and payment would take 7-14 business days on our end.

Our advice would be to contact the market research company hosting the study for follow up regarding payment. Specifically, follow up with them via the recruiter that contacted you.

We hope this helps, and we hope you continue to use our platform to source legitimate paid market research opportunities!

A great way to make money for dependable people

When I first started FocusGroups.org I was able to sign up and create my profile easily. I was excited by the possibility of this site. It took s3-+4 months to get a call back, but once I was asked to participate, it was an exceptionally professional experience. They upheld their end of the contract and I was actually paid more than I was originally quoted. I'm grateful to have a plan B for supplemental money and recommend you completely fill out your profile, answer the phone when they call and consistently show up on time to your assignments and everything will be great. If you are flakey, go hang out with coconuts rather than wasting anyone's time.

Good volume, good pay

I’ve been able to find more and better paying surveys leading to focus groups by using this website. There’s a decent amount of advertising on the pages leading up to the surveys, but if you don’t mind ignoring them, this is a great place to find decent paying focus groups.

Appreciate you being honest! It’s true that qualifying can be hit or miss — that’s how legit research works, since each study needs certain types of participants. But there are always new listings going up, so the more you apply, the better your chances of landing one that fits.

FG is Cool with Me!

I've never had a problem with FG... all of my experiences have been great, thankfully! The studies I've participated in are interesting and I've always received the incentive promised... the payout timeline has changed, I've noticed; it is longer now than in the past... but, I seem to receive my incentive right when I need it... so, yeah... no complaints from me... I highly recommend the experience!

Focusgroups is the best

I have had great experiences with focus groups because they are always trying to find groups for me to participate in. They are great at answering questions and getting back to you in a timely manner.

focusgroup.org is a very easy

focusgroup.org is a very easy, convienent way to make some supplemental money while helping the medical community as well as finding cures to diseases/illnesses and diagnosis. I have done nearly a half a dozen treatments studies with absolutely no side effects! ALSO. There’s not just medical studies but mock jury trials, opinions about commercials for colleges, and even technical research studies! I’ve made almost $1.000 in 8 months with very little to no evidence work. The staff are very professional and it takes no more than 2 hours to complete an appointment and make up to $300. HIGHLY RECOMMRNDED!
