About Quest Mindshare

Quest Mindshare is an online survey website that claims you can make income from them by completing surveys. Before you can start earning, you will have to sign up with them, take available surveys sent to you, and get rewarded for completing it. Quest Mindshare has a small list of countries that are eligible to participate in their survey and they include the US, Canada, France, Germany, Britain, Italy, Spain, Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand, Philippines and South Korea.

How does Quest Mindshare work?

Quest Mindshare is free to join and the registration is just like other survey sites we already know. Signing up requires you to fill out a bunch of personal information and profile surveys which enables Quest Mindshare to get a feel of your interests. Although this usually takes some time but it is, of course, important for them to know you better in order to match you with appropriate surveys, right? Yes, I think that sounds great.

After registration, all you have to do is wait to receive an email from Quest Mindshare when there is a survey available for you to do in less than 24 hours or a couple of day’s maybe, but it isn’t all that simple. The mail sent to you will include a link, which ought to take you directly to a paid survey, right? I mean that is the way it is with other survey sites I know, but that is not the case here, instead you will be made to go through a set of pre-survey or screening questions where you will be asked series of qualifying questions. If you don’t meet their requirements, you will not be eligible to take the survey.

How will you make money?

There is only one way that I know off and that is through online surveys. They do not have product testing or focus groups such as AIP Online surveys which might be a good way to make money online.

The duration of the surveys is 10 minutes on average and their earnings range from $1 up to $6 depending on the length of the surveys. One thing that really buggered me on their home page was their statement that their music rating surveys will pay you up to $90 per survey.

Which countries can participate?

There is a small list of countries that can participate in this panel and they include the US, Canada, France, Germany, Britain, Italy, Spain, Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand, Philippines and South Korea.

How you will be rewarded

This panel only has 2 ways in which they reward their panelists and it includes PayPal and Gift cards. PayPal works very good for me because it is just so effortless to get your money in your bank account.

I am happy that most survey panels have realized that paper checks does not work that well. Heck we are now in 2016 which makes checks a bit old fashioned. Checks also tend to get lost and I hate the idea of standing in a long line on front of the banks.

As a US citizen you need a minimum of $12.5 before you can withdraw your money.

How much can you earn with Quest Mindshare?

Like I said earlier, Quest Mindshare seem to have a decent payout. Averagely, the duration of the surveys is 10 minutes and they claim you can earn from $1 up to $6 depending on the length of the surveys. To even earn more, Quest Mindshare claims to offers unique surveys to their members.

Clearly stated on their web home page that their music rating surveys will pay you up to $90 per survey, a whopping $90 really? This got me started. Further research showed that they actually do offer an opportunity for members to earn $40 to take a 2-hour music survey, that’s $20 per hour which sounds great but I honestly don’t think they will pay you.

I have never come across any survey sites offering to pay that much for a survey all through my years doing surveys, never! I can confidently tell you that you won’t be having these type of offers “knocking at your door” even if you successfully qualify for surveys with Quest Mindshare.

Conclusion – Is Quest Mindshare a Scam?

Quest Mindshare seems to be a legit survey site, but to be honest, they are just like most survey sites that simply waste your precious time. Considering the fact that you will not likely qualify for any survey, and would neither be compensated for the huge time spent answering pre-survey questions.
