How it works

Three steps, and the third one is getting paid

01

Tell us your profile once

Age, country, education, whether you have kids or a car. It sounds like a lot, it takes two minutes, and it decides which invitations reach you.

02

We invite you to the studies that fit

By email and in your dashboard. Every invitation tells you what it pays and how long it takes before you start.

03

Cash out once you reach US$5

Request payment from your account and the money lands in your PayPal. No withdrawal fee.

What you can earn

Let us do the real math

This is not a job: it is spare cash for time you already spend on your phone. Move the two sliders and we will show you the number.

This is an estimate∗, not a promise. What a study pays depends on the study, your country and how many invitations come up that month. Anyone quoting you a fixed figure is lying.

Per month, roughly

Getting paid

Your money, in your PayPal

PayPal

The standard payout. Request it from US$5 and it lands in the account you signed up with.

Available in every country

Gift cards

Amazon and local stores, depending on where you live. Redeemed from the same balance.

Depends on the country∗

Prize draws

Some short studies pay by draw rather than per answer. The invitation always says so upfront.

Only when the invitation says so

No withdrawal fee, and your balance does not expire while the account is active.

No small print

What almost nobody tells you about paid surveys

We would rather say it now and let you decide than have you find out in three days and leave annoyed.

Sometimes you will not qualify, and that is normal

A study might be looking for mothers aged 25 to 40 in Colombia who bought nappies this month. If you are not a match, the survey closes after two minutes. It is not a bug or a punishment: it is how sampling works. The better your profile, the less often it happens.

Reaching US$5 takes a while

It depends on how many invitations exist for your profile. Some people get there in a couple of weeks, others in a long month. Nobody gets rich here and we are not going to pretend otherwise.

Your answers go out grouped and without your name

The client buys the statistic, not your file: they see that 62% prefer the blue packaging, not that you said it. We do not sell your email or pass it to advertisers.

You can leave whenever you want

One button in your account deletes your profile and takes you off every mailing. If you have a balance above the minimum, cash it out before you go.

Who answers

People with a spare moment and an opinion

Example
«I answer them on the bus on my way to work. It is not a salary, but last month it covered my phone credit and a bit more.»
Marcela R.
Córdoba, Argentina
Example
«What I liked is that the invitation tells you what it pays and how long it takes before you go in. Other sites do not do that.»
Diego P.
Bogotá, Colombia
Example
«At first I got screened out of a lot of them. I filled in my profile properly and the right ones started arriving.»
Luisa F.
Monterrey, Mexico

These three cards are examples. Swap them for real testimonials, with permission from whoever wrote them, before publishing.

Questions

What people ask before joining

Does joining cost anything?

No, not to join and not afterwards. Zona Encuestas charges no fee and never asks for a card. The brand commissioning the study is the one paying.

Which countries can take part?

Most of Latin America, Spain and the United States. Sign-up asks for yours and, if there are no studies for that country yet, we tell you right there instead of leaving you waiting.

When and how do I get paid?

You request a withdrawal once your balance reaches US$5 and the money goes out via PayPal to the email you signed up with. We charge no withdrawal fee.

Why does a survey sometimes close after two minutes?

Because each study targets a specific profile and has a quota. If the quota for your profile is already full, or your first answers show you are not who they are looking for, the questionnaire ends there. It happens across the whole industry; a complete profile makes it far rarer.

How many invitations will I get?

It depends on your country, your age and which studies are running at the time. Some weeks bring several, some none. When few arrive, it is almost always because the profile is incomplete.

What do you do with my data?

Your answers reach the client grouped and without your name. We use your email to send invitations and account notices, and nothing else. You can delete your profile whenever you want.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes, and that is how most people answer. Surveys run in your phone browser; there is nothing to install.

Your opinion is already worth something. Now get paid for it.
