Surveys can be anywhere from one to fifteen minutes in length, depending on the length set-up by when registering with Opinionate.
We display the estimated survey length in each survey invitation. You can choose to participate, or if the survey appears too long you can simply ignore the invitation (or decline it so you don't receive a reminder).
The length of each survey is based on the estimated time it would take an average person to answer. Some people might take less time, others may take more depending on your responses.
A survey session might take a little longer than the displayed survey length due to the routing process prior to entering the survey which is in place to make sure the survey is relevant to your profile.
Surveys can be on any topic except gaming, alcohol and tobacco which we reject automatically and other topics excluded by when registering with Opinionate.
Surveys come from market research agencies who represent global brands, service providers and government agencies and have no relation to unless expressly stated in the survey invitation.
The frequency is set by when setting up the Opinionate platform, but generally survey opportunities are restricted to two per month.
You can change the frequency yourself by logging into your Opinion Donation portal and going to the Settings options.
