At Last A Legitimate Internet Site Where Teenagers Are Able To Take Part In Market Research For Some Potential Extra Money
An online survey company that inspires both adults and youths to give their opinion about a spread of issues affecting their daily life. What I like about E-Poll is the teenager forum. This is open to teenagers between the ages of 13-18 and permits them to take part in interactive surveys and earn reward points that may be cashed in for gift cards.
This is a superb way for a teenager to do something other than play games online. The interactive surveys are fun and aimed towards young people. Rewards for collaborating in the surveys are given in a “points” system. Once the teenager completes a survey, they earn “E-points.” once they have collected a considerable number of E-points, they can redeem them for gift cards to places that most teens like to frequent, including McDonald’s, Starbucks, Amazon, and, the grand mum of all teenager places, Best Buy.
Don’t think that you’ll produce rich 16-year-old by taking these sorts of surveys, but it’s nice to know that E-Poll is safe for your teenager and has harsh privacy policies. I am a bit partial to any online survey company that welcomes young people; they generally do not wish to be the subject of a Fed investigation into corrupting minors, so they’re sometimes pretty legitimate. My girl signed up to this site and as so far made a gift voucher for Best Buy and Starbucks. She said the surveys were easy and not at all like the tests she is taking in school. Too bad colleges insist on giving grades rather than present certificates or she would be a straight A student.
E-Poll also offers surveys for adults. But this is not a survey-for-cash site. After enrolling for the site, you’ll receive an e-mail confirmation. After you click the link, you’re in and you will begin receiving surveys by e-mails. Each survey is worth a specific number of points. And the points are redeemed for gift cards. In addition to the gift vouchers that appeal to teens, adults can receive cards for Home Depot, Target and other stores.
Each survey takes about 10 minutes or less to finish. I can’t say I have participated in any E-Poll surveys as my child just about took over this site. Like most Internet survey companies, E-Poll has a limit of one survey participant per household.
This is a bonafide site and lots of fun for kids. The company is really tough on their privacy policy. My girl has not received any telephone calls or spam mail since enrolling for the site. The site does not collect any personal data, but easy demographic info, concerning the state in which she lives, her level of education, her sex and race. They won’t release any information to any third party.
Some of the surveys that she has cooperated in have been about music, online games, college supplies, and fast food products. The site is owned by Bridge Entertainment, Inc. And although adults can take part, it is geared towards teens and young adults. The tagline for the site is “Express Yourself.”
All parents should monitor their child’s usage of the Internet at all points. Although E-Poll has proved to be a legit polling site mums and dads should warn their children about giving out any personal information over the internet. But kids using E-Poll are pretty safe. We haven’t had any bad experiences with this site, and although I actually haven’t made any money, I have saved a few bucks. Typically my girl asks for handouts when going to McDonald’s or Starbucks. But with E-Poll, she has been able to get her own gift vouchers.
Maybe some day I will get really fortunate and she’ll find a job.
