Toluna Influencers vs Consumer Opinion Institute

On the odd chance that you have any issues with the Toluna paid survey program, you will find their customer service department to be top notch. They are super fast at responding to any inquiries and act quickly to resolve any and all issues, no matter how big or small.

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

There isn't too much not to like at Toluna, but one sticking point with the program is that your points will expire in six months after being awarded. This is to incentivize you to keep taking surveys, but if you don't stay on top of things you can miss on out on previously awarded points.

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.
