There are 7 sets of questions open in your area right now. At $18.20 each, that is $127.40 sitting there today. You read the question, you tap the answer you believe, you get paid. That is the whole job.
What you get asked about
— and whatever people are arguing about that week
One charge, today, and nothing after it. No monthly fee, nothing renews.
“What got me was that nobody was asking me to sell anything or call anybody. I answer the questions on my phone while the coffee brews.” — Gerald M., Boise, ID
Each set of questions takes a limited number of answers. When a set fills, it closes and a new one opens.
| Sets of questions open in a typical area today | 7 |
| What one finished set pays | × $18.20 |
| Open on your list today | $127.40 |
That is what is sitting on the list, not a promise of what you will take home. How much you actually earn depends on how many sets you finish, how many are open where you live, and how fast they fill. Plenty of members finish one set and stop. See the earnings disclaimer.
“I expected a catch. There isn’t one. They ask what I think about the bond measure, I tell them, that’s it.” — Tanya L., Fresno, CA
“Two of us in this house vote opposite ways and we both get paid the same. I find that funny every single time.” — Marcus K., Dayton, OH
“Some weeks there are four sets for my area, some weeks there is one. I do them when they come and I don’t think about it otherwise.” — Ruth P., Knoxville, TN
Citizens Opinion Panel is a private company. We pay ordinary people to answer questions about the issues — prices, schools, roads, ballot measures, the ads they keep seeing — and we sell what the numbers say to the people who want to know what the public actually thinks. That is the entire business. You get paid for your opinion; nobody gets to tell you what it should be.
We are not a government agency or program, not an election office, and not connected to any campaign, political party or candidate. Nobody from any party sees your name next to your answers, and we do not register anyone to vote, process any benefit, or administer anything on anyone’s behalf. We are a company that buys opinions, in cash, from people who have them.
Your answers go into the results anonymously. What you earn depends on how many sets you finish and how many are open where you live, so we cannot and do not promise any particular amount.
