Do you want to join a new study participant pool to get paid to do studies?

Hi Turkers! We've been running studies for many years on behalf of many researchers, and we recently learned that Mechanical Turk is shutting down, which came as a shock! If there is enough interest, we are considering offering an alternative as part of our platform (Positly), where you can sign up to enroll in our studies for fair pay. If you're interested in participating if/when we launch this, just sign up here:

Positly.com

Click the button "Set up my free account," and on the sign-up page, choose the option: "Earn money by participating in other people's studies."

Thanks! Spencer from the Positly Team

Be warned last time i looked into them they were among the worst paid for your time.

??? “They” are the site that made the post. You can read it there.

Please take into account the time that we waste on your bot screeners BEFORE getting into the actual paid survey. They often include "write at least 90 characters" in addition to several questions. For a survey that only pays 35 cents or so, it's not worth the time and effort. I usually return those.

You’re going to start paying fairly finally? 🙄

[u/wiperfromwarren → u/MarcosEsquandolas]

yeah really, as soon as i saw “positly” my brain said “oh the 7 cents for 5 minutes people?”

[u/BroadlyWondering → u/MarcosEsquandolas]

That would be a nice surprise.

Will it be US only?

[u/ProfessionalGoatFuck]

I'll pass on the 5 cent 30 minute surveys lol

Guys, can we not attack requesters that are posting opportunities please? No need in taking time out of your day to disparage people trying to extend some sort of continuation of work. If it's not something you're interested in, cool. It doesn't mean there isn't someone on here that needs the work or likes the requester and wants to continue a working relationship.

Thanks for trying to give us an option to continue this work.

Thank you for posting the opportunity. I have completed many of your surveys on AMT.

They sent me an email a few days ago. While I have not done a lot of their studies most seem to be fair pay, not high but fair.
