I found several upcoming paid market research studies, focus groups and panels that are looking for participants to give their feedback online in exchange for cash or Amazon gift cards. One of the studies will be held onsite but I thought that I would include them because VG Market is seeking video and mobile game players to visit their Seattle office and test unreleased video games and get paid for their feedback. If you like to play video games, happen to live near Seattle and are at least 18, make sure that you sign up before the play test gets filled. Another company is seeking those who make videos and publish them to YouTube or Vimeo who are between the ages of 18-35 to get paid for a phone or Skype interview about their experiences creating video blogs. There are a couple of video chats and even one for kids and teens.
Make sure that you read over the details closely and see if you qualify so you can earn some extra cash. Please feel free to share this post with your friends and others. I think there is something on this list for everyone. Enjoy!
