  • How often will I be invited to these online surveys?

    The number of invitations depends greatly on the country that you live in – surveys are conducted more frequently in some countries than in others. Participants are also selected randomly, or there may be a pre-selection depending on age, gender, level of education, profession, place of residence, etc. This depends on the target group requirements set by the customers.

    We recommend that you fully complete your profile and to always keep your details up to date. This will allow us to ensure that you are invited to surveys more selectively.

Your money is not lost, if you have already triggered payment, even though you have registered a different email address in your PayPal account.

  • What is PayPal and how can I create an account?

    PayPal is the faster, safer way to send and receive money online at low cost using an email address. For more information or to create an account, please visit www.paypal.com.


  • Why I didn’t get any money after inviting my friends?

    It is necessary that you recruit your friends via the recruit friends feature in your account and that your friends click the link in the email they receive. Otherwise, our system will unfortunately not be able to identify who has recruited the participant.

    The money promised for recruiting your friends will be added to your account automatically, once your friends have successfully completed one survey. You can check your friend’s status in your account. Immediately after inviting, the status is indicated as “Red” which means that your friend has not registered yet. Once the account is activated, the status changes to “Yellow”. Once your friend has completed one survey the dot becomes green and your reward will be credited to your account.


  • Why did I get less payment for a survey than was indicated in the survey invitation?

    In some cases you might be invited to a survey and after you start this survey you are screened out after a couple of questions, because you do not match the required target group. The same may apply, when the survey is already closed. In such a case, our system will immediately search for a new survey for you. If you are able to complete the survey, you will of course receive the remuneration for this survey. You will get higher compensation for a longer survey and lower compensation for a shorter one.

    This means that the reason why you are getting a different amount of money than was indicated in the invitation is simply that you have taken part in a different survey.


  • Other than participating in surveys, is there any other way to earn money?

    Yes! By recommending Tawasol to your friends! Your reward will be credited to your account once your friend has successfully completed one survey.

    Your friend must be invited using our invitation form. Log in to your account and click “invite friends” from the menu. Here you are able to enter your friends’ names and email addresses. You can invite as many friends as you like!


  • How can I use my earned money?

    You can choose the perfect reward for you, You can redeem your balance to Paypal, Vouchers or products.

    You can request payment of your earned money simply via PayPal. Please make sure that the email address with which you are registered with Tawasol is also listed in you PayPal account to allow us to identify you.

  • What can I do if I was screed out of a survey after answering several questions?

    It is often that particular target groups are required for surveys. After a couple of initial questions, it is decided whether or not you match the required target group. In order to be able to provide you with a wide range of surveys, we are cooperating with partner companies. Unfortunately it can sometimes happen that those determining questions take a little longer. Due to the large number of surveys, we are not able to check all of them in advance.

    Very particular target groups are sometimes required for longer surveys. In such cases, pre-selection may include up to ten or twenty questions. Your answers to the selection questions will not be used when analysing the survey results and you can therefore not be compensated.

    However, if you have been kicked out of a survey after an overly high number of questions, please feel free to contact us, describing what happened. We will need the invitation link for the survey to look into it. You will find it in the email we sent you. We always strive to get better and we are happy to receive your feedback!


  • Can I restart the survey or continue it after an interruption?

    Each survey link can be clicked only once. For this reason it is, unfortunately, not possible to take a break during the survey or to re-start it after closing the browser window. Unfortunately we have to proceed like this, in order to avoid multiple participation and other types of fraud. We recommend that each survey is completed in one sitting.

    In the case of prolonged inactivity, there may be short interruptions of the internet connection leading to the survey being aborted. For security reasons and due to international market research guidelines, a survey cannot be continued and the results cannot be included in the analysis.


  • Why I’m told that the required number of participants has been already reached, short after starting the survey?

    Our participants often react so quickly that the survey is closed before all invited participants get the chance to take part. We always invite more people than we need, since we cannot tell in advance how many people are going to take part. We have to do this to be able to guarantee our customers that the required number of participants is reached in a set amount of time.


  • Why I’m told that I don’t match the required survey target group?

    When sending out the invitation, we don’t always know for sure if you match the target group. For some surveys, a target group is set in advance based on certain characteristics that are not included in your profile with us. This is why it can happen that you are not part of a survey’s target group, even though you received an email invitation for the survey.

    Specific questions are used to determine whether a participant matches the target group. Those questions e.g. about particular consumer behavior, are asked at the beginning of the survey. The survey is interrupted early on, if you don’t match the target group. We may also search the system to automatically forward you to another survey.

    Should you get this message before you have answered a single question and should this happen repeatedly, this may mean that there is a technical issue, such as the used device not being suitable for the survey or that the survey has already been closed.


  • Why do I get the survey in the wrong language?

    You’ve selected your preferred survey language when you’ve created your account. However, you can always change the preferred survey language from your account, just login to your account and navigate to “My Profile” and update your preferred survey language from the “Master profile survey”.


  • Why do I get the message “Survey has been already started” upon staring the survey!

    Each invitation link can be clicked only once. For this reason it is, unfortunately, not possible to take a break during the survey or to re-start it after closing the browser window. If you get this message it means that you have clicked and started the survey before but regrettably could not complete it.

    Should you frequently or even always get this message, there might also be an issue with your email provider. In such cases we would like to suggest that you manually copy the invitation link to the address bar of your browser.


  • Why the invitation link to survey not working?

    We always do advance testing of our surveys to avoid technical problems prior to sending the invites. However, sometimes problems do not occur until later on. In order to make sure that the issue is not related to your settings, the following tips may help with future surveys.

    Deactivate your pop-up blocker
    Use Chrome or Firefox as a browser
    Avoid double-clicking the link
    In case of doubt, copy the link to your browser before clicking the “take part” link
    Always use the intended device (PC / laptop computer for E-Mail invitations, smartphone / tablet computer for push notifications in the app)

    Please note that every link can be clicked only once. As soon as you have clicked a link, the survey is considered to be started and it cannot be opened/re-started after the browser window is closed. Unfortunately we have to proceed like this, in order to avoid multiple participation and other types of fraud.

  • I’m getting none or very few invitations to surveys?

    We can’t determine how many invitations you will receive per day. We also cannot tell you when exactly you will get them. All invitations are sent automatically.

    The number of invitations you receive depends strongly on the country that you live in – surveys are conducted more frequently in some countries than in others. Participants are also selected randomly, or there may be a pre-selection depending on age, gender, level of education, profession, place of residence, etc. This depends on the requirements set by the customers.

    We recommend that you fully complete your profile and to always keep your details up to date. This will allow us to ensure that you are invited to surveys more selectively.

    It can also happen that our invitations end up in your spam folder, since some email providers interpret our invitations as spam. So please check your spam folder regularly or adjust the settings accordingly. You may want to add [email protected] to your address book to be on the safe side.
