Service & Snafus

Learn about customer service and potential issues with Nielsen Mobile and Ipsos before you sign up.

Nielsen Mobile Ipsos
Nielsen Mobile

Being in business for decades, Nielsen has their operations down pat. If you encounter a problem you can email or call. You should expect little to no delay in response to your query.

Ipsos
Nielsen Mobile

Unfortunately, while installing Nielsen Mobile is easy money, they are only accepting certain groups, at least for the time being. If you're a tablet user, you simply have to be 18 or older. For smartphone users, the company is currently only accepting members 45 or older. These requirements may change as Nielsen's demographic needs shift.

Ipsos

Ipsos is a massive operation so sometimes customer service can get a bit backlogged along with reward redemption.

If you are primarily a mobile user this might not be the panel for you as the app as proven to be rather clunky and the site isn’t really optimized for mobile users.

Final Verdict

See our closing thoughts to help you decide if Nielsen Mobile or Ipsos is better for you.

Nielsen Mobile Ipsos

Nielsen PC and Mobile
won't earn you a ton of money, but you won't have to do much of anything to get your $50 in yearly rewards. If you like passive income, this program is ideal.

You can install this app with confidence as Nielsen has an impeccable reputation. They're simply trying to do for mobile device usage what they've done for TV ratings. The company has an extensive privacy policy to allay privacy fears. They simply want to know what you're watching on your mobile device.

In short, there's very little, if any, downside to trying this app. Users have reported no slowdowns in their devices and no privacy breaches. If for some reason you don't like it, it's a one-click uninstall.

If you fall into the demographic that is currently being accepted, there's no reason you shouldn't give Nielsen Mobile a try!

Ipsos

Ipsos is without doubt one of the most reliable panels in the industry. By far the best feature is the volume. You rarely have to wait for email invites to take surveys so you can pretty much earn much as much you like. Unlike many survey panels you may only receive 10 invites a month whereas with Ipsos you might get 10 in a day.

You won’t get rich taking the average surveys but that fact is more than compensated for in terms of volume. Keep in mind, if Ipsos happens to be looking for someone in your particular demographic you could be invited to take higher paying surveys up to $95 or invited to online focus groups.

With all of the advantages of being an Ipsos member and number of earning opportunities, Ipsos needs to be part of your survey taking strategy. Why not join today?
