Consumer Opinion Institute vs MobileXpression

Backed by global market research company TNS, Consumer Opinion Institute has an extensive background in customer service and responds to any inquiries very quickly.

This could almost be considered a positive, but it can be extremely difficult to join Consumer Opinion Institute. Their clients demand very specific information from particular demographics, so you kind of have to be lucky if you happen to fall into one of the groups being accepted.

It should also be noted that no one is getting rich from this program as you'll generally receive only about three surveys per month. However, you will receive this consistently, so you can depend on the supplemental income.

As with any passive income app or market research, you might have some privacy concerns. Fortunately, MobileXpression offers a detailed privacy policy on their website which we encourage you to read, as you should before choosing any program.

Another common concern is that the MobileXpression app will slow down your phone, or drain your battery. This hasn't been the case in our experience, but either way having extra money in your pocket should make up for any uptick in battery consumption.
