Sandy21 Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 Today was the first day that I allowed a survey site to record me through my webcam for an extra reward. I was shocked at how short the exercise was and I actually got my extra reward! Does anyone here do this on a regular basis or have you done it in the past and will do it in the future? Thanks for your input 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawn_b_adams Posted November 26, 2021 Report Share Posted November 26, 2021 It depends on the site. With Qmee, there are quite a few webcam surveys that only take a very short amount of time, and sometimes I can get $1.50 or more for five minutes or so. Other sites not so much. I’ve tried webcam surveys on other sites and got screwed. But if I can find some like the ones on Qmee, I’m perfectly willing to do a five minute survey for $1.50. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinuxPowered Posted November 26, 2021 Report Share Posted November 26, 2021 No, I don't do those. At all. I'm just uncomfortable with the whole idea--especially since I hate the way I look on video! :) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFriday Posted November 27, 2021 Report Share Posted November 27, 2021 I would not do it for $1.50, but I have done some market research studies via zoom since the pandemic has curtailed most live panels. I have a study with a market research place being paid by Medicare, and I have been with the study for over a year. They contact me at least once a month, and ask me a few questions and for those I get a $5 Amazon GC, if it takes any longer then they pay me more. A couple of times they have asked me to participate in a 15 minute zoom session with them, and they pay me $30. There have been a few other market research studies where I have been paid at least $75, and sometimes more. Most of the market research studies are still being done remotely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NevadaJones Posted November 27, 2021 Report Share Posted November 27, 2021 I did the webcams occasionally when I first started doing surveys, but once I realized that I usually look like I've just gotten out of bed, I thought better of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's when they send them out - when you look your worst. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neminem Posted December 7, 2021 Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 Every once in a blue moon, if they pay sufficiently well. Usually it's not worth it - way more of a pain than answering via text, so they'd have to pay way more. I totally don't understand why they'd pay more, either - it seems like they'd be getting worse, harder-to-use data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somelady Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 I don't do the web cams. I don't want to get presentable enough to be on camera. I run into a lot of webcam surveys lately. And it seems like all of 2020's surveys are web cam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always feel that way..Just once did I allow it but felt really strange about being recorded 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
