Pinecone Research Review Summary

Taking surveys is very different now that the internet exists and one of the dozens of internet sites offering surveys is Pine Cone Research, a site that pays members to answer survey questions. Pine Cone Research pays a flat rate for each completed research survey and the site offers great support, fast payment, and many different products and services to survey. Many consider Pine Cone Research “The Best Survey Site” and the only small complaint is the fact that not everyone will qualify for every survey. Still, this is a small price to pay for a Misc. Web Site that is rated so highly by reviewers in so many different areas.

I got a link to join this website from another site I've mentioned on here, justfreestuff.com. At the time it was an invitation only survey site, but, they had opened up the site to the general public for a limited time, and I got to join. (I think now it is just open to everyone)
The way it works is, after you sign up with them, you will get emails with links to surveys. For EVERY survey you do, you receive a $3.00 check in the mail. It may not sound like a lot, but, who doesn't like getting an extra three bucks in the mail a few times a month.
For certain surveys that you qualify for, you even...

    I was sent an invitation to join Pinecone Research almost 8 years ago by a friend who was on the site. I was accepted and have not regretted joining at all. I get an average of 2 surveys a week from them and they range in length from 10 to 40 minutes.

    What Pinecone is all about

   
Pincone is contacted by some of the largest manufactures in the country and some smaller ones as well. They then pass out surveys based on the info you supplied to them on your member page. Surveys are strictly confidential and they never sell your info to anyone, only the answers to the surveys are shared....

It took me a long time and a few tries to get into Pinecone, but now that I am here, I am enjoying it. Where else allows you to try products and get paid? It's nothing to make a living on, but it's as fun as it gets.

The surveys are not long or time consuming and the products are always geared toward a profile you submit.

Keep in mind you must be hush-hush about the products you are testing--even on message boards. I know someone who was turned in and  booted from Pinecone for discussing something she was testing on a message board.

This is my alltime favorite website. Although you may have some trouble being accepted into the website, it is well worth it. I recieve on average 5 to 7 surveys a month. Each survey takes anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes to complete. You receive $5.00 for each and every survey that you complete. You have the option of receiving a check or being paid through www.paypal.com. I receive the checks through the mail and receive my checks within one week of survey completion consistently. www.pineconeresearch.com will also occasionaly send you test products from major companies that are looking for a test... review »

PineCone Research is a great survey site. Once you become a member, you won't ever want to unscubscribe from this panel.

You will be paid $3 for each survey you complete, either by check or paypal (way faster). The con is that you will only receive 2-3 surveys a month. 

"One of the best features is the guaranteed payment for your time. None of that awful business of spending 30 minutes on a survey to be disqualified. If they offer the survey to you, you WILL be paid. That's a rarity in the survey world!" (yourfreesurveys)

Sometimes they will send you products to test after doing a survey. You will...

I belong to a couple of survey sites because I love getting the dish on new products and giving feedback.  I heard about Pinecone Research a few months ago and I really wanted to join because I heard it was great.  Unfortunately once you find a banner ad for the site you have to register and not everyone will qualify.  It took a little while but I was finally registered and I love it.  Not only do you get the chance to do interesting surveys, but they pay you $3 for helping out.  It is like a bonus in your mailbox every month.  Also some surveys will qualify you to test products which I love... review »

Over the years I have participated in a number of online survey companies and I have to say that Pinecone Research is the best!  My time is important to me, and I don't like to waste it spending 20-30 minutes doing a survey only to get "disqualified" towards the end and not receive any compensation for the time I have spent.  You do not have that problem with Pinecone Research.  They will occasionally send you requests to update your profile which they state beforehand will not be paid but they usually take 3-5 minutes to complete.  I consistently get a higher number of completed surveys with...

This has to be my favorite survey site overall. I had heard a little bit about it about two years ago, and wanted to join, but it is invite-only. Sometimes you can find the banners to join, and some people will let you know where those banners are, which is how I ended up joining. I have been very pleased with this site the entire time I have been a member. I have had little to no technical errors, and every single survey invitation you get sent, you are guaranteed to get your three dollars for completing. There are no qualification questions on the surveys themselves. You do get invitations for...

the Pinecone survey Reasearch iweb site s a great site for taking surveys and making a few extra dollars for taking them. Plus, a lot of times they will send you a product to test in your house and you get to keep it. This site is so good that you actually have to be invited to join. You just can not join by yourself. I have been taking survey for years and finally goty an invite. If you stop taking the surveys though your profile will be closed and will have to wait to be invited again. You can between $1.00 to $5.00 per survey. They can either mail you a check to your home address or then can...
