Product Report Card vs PointClub

Unlike some survey panels, Product Report Card makes support easily accessible. Should you encounter any problems, it's very easy to open a support ticket from your account dashboard. Expect a quick and courteous response to you inquiry.

They even respond to inquiries on Trustpilot which is a consumer watchdog site. You can see their forum here. If that fails, you can reach them at (303) 345-4261.

While there's a lot to like about this program, one drawback is the low amount of survey invites. While you may be lucky enough to qualify for high-paying focus groups or product reviews, on a day-to-day basis you will not get a lot of earning opportunities. This is partially due the fact that they have very discerning clients that seek detailed information.

You may also find some people claiming to have not been paid or paid very slowly. This is generally just people that are impatient or don't understand the process and should be ignored.

PointClub certainly has a lot of surveys for you to take, but you may want to stay away from the "paid trial offers" if you want to stick to paid market research. While you will get paid for signing up for various offers, you may be required to pay for trial periods, which can get a bit tricky. If you do not cancel your trial within a particular time frame, you are charged for the amount of the service or product and may not receive enough compensation to make up the difference.
