FocusGroups.org Reviews 

This is a legit company. And their incentives are great. BUT.... get ready to wait once you redeem your reward points. Most online survey platforms take up to a week, if that. This place takes up to 2 months. And beware you must have $50 in rewards to even redeem them. Not worth it with so many other great survey platforms

It's a very good survey opportunity

It doesn't have a lot for me

It's hard to qualify for surveys.

I continue to get cut out of surveys when I have already invested 10 minutes. I would like to know why?!

This place is fun, and amazing! The staff is very friendly! I basically get paid to answer questions, and engage in chat! They offer gift cards for my favorite places! Thanks for having me!

Thanks, John

Great site, one that actually has thoughtful and well-paying opportunities.

Great way to earn money. A good list of various topics. Good quick response from your application to invitations.

I just started with FocusGroup and so far I am very pleased. I have done enough surveys to get a reward within 4 days. The surveys were interesting and not too long. I also qualified for 2 panels within the first week. I also had a question and it was answered right away. I highly recommend FocusGroup.

It was easy to sign up and get approved!...Bravo!!!

Straight forward, and ease of compensation.

Just started using the site. They have a variety of options to choose from. Lots of different things to try. Already found several I'd love to participate in

Still new to the site but I’ve enjoyed it so far. I’d like to keep using and then give an update in a month.

The professionalism and courtesy of the nice gentleman who called me made the experience, pleasant and memorable.

I have had great experiences with Focus Groups and now Sago. Unfortunately, in 2025 and 2026 payment has become a HUGE issue. I don't know if they are having financial problem or what. I did a study some time ago. I got the points for conversion back on 3/12. Today is 4/29 and still no money or Amazon giftcards. On the site it says they pay in 2 to 3 weeks. When I spoke to the gentleman today he apologized and said 7 weeks is way too long. I should receive it in 24 to 48 hours. He would expedite the payment. I have started seeing more and more complaints. I have e-mailed them twice in the last two weeks with NO RESPONSE. I finally had to call the headquarters in New Jersey. This is no way to run a company and reward participants. I don't know what is going on with Sago/Focus Groups, but it is not a good sign when they are not paying in a timely fashion. All I can sense is BIG PROBLEMS!!! Pay your participants.!!!! Timely!!! 7 weeks is way too long.

I had done projects with this company in the past and although it took a very long time to get paid, I had positive experiences and trusted them. Then I received an email about a survey that paid $15 that required a photo, but they were offering an additional $60 bonus. I completed the survey as directed and was paid the $15 within a couple of days. I inquired about the bonus and was told that I would get it as soon as the study closed. I contacted them four more times once it closed. I finally was told my uploaded picture was bad quality. I responded with a copy of the pic, it was very good quality. The final response I received stated I was only paid the $15 as a courtesy, my survey answers had not met requirements, I would not receive the bonus. If the survey did not meet requirements, why was I not immediately informed? Why was I paid the base amount so quickly? Why was I given various excuses about the bonus being delayed? The new policy for redeeming points requires a $50 minimum, so the $15 that was sent cant be used. I answered questions truthfully but I dont think my answers where the answers the study was hoping to find. I feel like offering a bonus and stalling me for 3 weeks before telling me I won't receive it was unethical. I realized how very little recourse people have if these companies choose to mislead us. BEWARE

I love doing the studies love it the only reason I give it 1 star is for the timing of getting paid 4 to 6 weeks that's kind of crazy to me and it's even like that for a virtual card not sure why it has to process for so long especially when you been doing your studies for so long now. I did a study the other day and had options to get zelle, PayPal or a gift card and that happen the day after. I just feel like yall process needs to change with that. Again this review isn't about the company because you all have great studies. It's about the payment processing time. Imagine doing a study in the beginning of February and not getting your payment until close to the end of March and that's even with getting a virtual card.

I basically have a question about the signing up. It requests you to Consent to Collect your information for: Cookie ID's, Demographics, Lifestyle, Sensitive Data, Device ID's and to Agree and Continue. Is this info shared with other companies?

Durning the hard time and the holidays this was just want I needed to be able to do anywhere from my phone simple and if you have ayou have an urgent problem, you should contact the company directly.!!

I have gotten very few tasks, may be due to several different things. When I do get assigned a task, it is very professional and payment is very quickly.
