Market research incentives, paid the day they finish
A study loses momentum when the incentive lags three weeks behind the session. Gifted sends market research incentives for the whole wave at once, in a currency each participant can actually spend.
Free forever. No card, no contracts, no minimums.
Incentives are the slowest part of fieldwork
No study stalls because the incentive was too small. It stalls because payment took three weeks, the finance queue closed on Friday, and the participant in Manila could not use a US-only card. Recruiters know exactly who completed the session. What they lack is a way to pay all three hundred of them before the panel goes quiet.
Three ways to pay market research incentives
Between them they cover most of what a research team means when it says incentives are a headache.
Send the whole panel
Upload every recipient at once with Mass Send. Release the rewards immediately or schedule them for the day fieldwork closes.
One upload beats three hundred one-off requests.
Pay in local currency
Rewards work in over 40 currencies and the catalog reaches 150+ countries. The system detects where a recipient is and shows only what they can actually redeem.
A card they cannot spend is not an incentive.
Brand the reward page
Put your study or company identity on the page the participant opens, alongside your own messaging. There is a reply box on every gift, so responses come back in the same place.
The thank-you and the follow-up question can share a screen.
Upload the list, send the rewards
Upload your recipients
Drop in a CSV from your recruiting tool or add people by hand. One file covers the whole wave.
Send now or schedule
Release the rewards the moment a session ends, or set a date and let them go out on their own.
Resend, regift, refund
Unopened rewards can be resent or sent to someone else. Anything nobody claims comes back to your budget.
Five minutes from sign-up to your first send.
You set the amount. They pick the reward.
Gift cards cover 4,500+ brands in 150+ countries, in local currency. A participant can also put the same reward toward a physical gift or branded swag, or split it across all three.

A reward that arrives fast keeps the panel answering
Recruiting the next study is easier when the last one paid on time.
Send the whole wave in one upload, let each participant redeem in a currency they use, and keep the unclaimed money instead of writing it off.
Market research incentive questions
Can survey respondents choose their own incentive?
Yes. Each participant opens a link and picks a brand that works where they are, from 4,500+ gift card brands in 150+ countries. You set the amount, they choose the reward.
How much does Gifted cost for a research team?
There is no platform fee, no user fee and no minimum. You pay the face value of the rewards you send. ACH and wire are free, credit card is 3%, and international FX is 5%.
Can I pay participants outside the US?
Yes. Rewards work in 150+ countries and over 40 currencies including USD, EUR, CAD, GBP, JPY, INR and CNY. The system detects where a recipient is and only shows what is available there.
What happens to incentives nobody claims?
You get the money back. 100% within 72 hours, and 75% up to two years. You can also resend an unopened reward or send it to a different participant instead.
Do participants need an account?
Only if they redeem through the platform. They open a link, choose what they want, and enter delivery details if they pick a physical gift.
Can I send hundreds of incentives at once?
Yes. Mass Send takes an upload of every recipient and either releases the rewards right away or schedules them to go out on a later date.
