American Consumer Opinion® is made up of consumers worldwide who have agreed to participate in our paid opinion survey panel.

Program Details and Our Suggestions

Getting Started. Basically all you have to do is complete the initial sign up process, and then update your profile later on their site if you have any major changes in your life, new house, get married, etc.

What to expect? American Consumer Panel relies heavily on screener surveys (short profile surveys) to match you up with potential paid research studies. Completing a screener survey will enter you into a drawing for a cash reward, and based on the results of your screener survey, you may be chosen to participate in the full survey which usually can be completed in 10 to 20 minutes. Incentives for these surveys can range from $4 to $25 per survey. In addition all registered members are automatically entered in a monthly drawing for $250. American consumer offers payment in the form of a check, and payment arrives within four weeks. Here is an example of an $8 check I received for completing one survey.

Our Advice: Since all of American Consumer Opinion's surveys can lead to cash incentives, and since they do not send out frequent invitations I would recommend that you try to take all of their screener surveys. Plus, you will be entered into a drawing for a cash reward for just completing the short screener survey, and unlike some other panels I have actually won a couple of these sweepstakes drawings.

The Bottom Line

American Consumer Opinion offers excellent compensation per survey, and the quality of their surveys is good. The only drawback is they do not offer as many surveys as other panels. You can expect any where from two to six screeners per month. I usually qualify for about half, so I average about two paid surveys per month. The pay per survey is excellent though and it is not uncommon to receive surveys that pay over $10. Definitely Recommend!
