Become a Product Tester: How It Works

As a product tester, you receive selected items at home, try them out in your daily life, and then complete a short online survey. On platforms like Ipsos iSay, you get the product for free and also collect points for the accompanying survey – points that can be redeemed for rewards such as gift cards, prepaid cards, or PayPal credit. With us, you can become an online product tester and help shape real brand decisions.

Product tests are always target-group specific. That’s why having an up-to-date profile is important: the more complete your details (such as household or interests), the better your chances of receiving invitations. Still, even if you meet the criteria, you won’t automatically be selected – spots are limited. Stay active, keep your profile current, and take part in surveys regularly to increase your chances.

If you’d like to become a paid product tester, here are the main steps:

1. Register: Sign up with Ipsos iSay and confirm your email address.
2. Complete your profile: A detailed profile increases the relevance of the products you’re invited to test.
3. Check and accept invitations: Regularly check your inbox and respond quickly – spots are often limited. Please note that we don’t send direct invitations for product tests. Instead, we invite members to take part in surveys, and some of these may offer the opportunity to qualify for a product test.
4. Test the product: Use it as described in your daily life and follow the usage guidelines.
5. Give feedback: Complete the online questionnaire fully and honestly to finalize your participation.
6. Collect points & redeem rewards: Accumulate points in your Ipsos iSay account and exchange them for available rewards.
7. Stay active: Keep your profile up to date and participate regularly to continue receiving invitations.

Ipsos iSay is available both online and via app – so you can work as a product tester almost anywhere.

Anyone looking to become a product tester and earn money should set realistic expectations: payment usually comes in two forms – the free product itself and points for completing the survey. These points can be redeemed for rewards such as gift cards or PayPal credit; donations are often possible too. Participation is flexible and joining is always free. The key is to stay active so you can build up points continuously.

The range extends from everyday items to specialty products: electronics and gadgets, cosmetics, personal care, food, and household goods are typical categories. Some product tests take place entirely at home: you receive the item, use it in daily life, and complete a short online survey. Others are run as brief live studies via video or chat, where you share your impressions spontaneously in real time. Both formats come with clear instructions, so you’ll always know exactly what to do.

To ensure your participation is secure and transparent, only take part in product tests through reputable platforms like Ipsos iSay. Look for clear terms and conditions, transparent data protection policies, and straightforward reward rules. A product test is reliable if participation is free, you receive the product without hidden costs, and results are used exclusively for market research.

Product testing is a practical way to try out products and collect rewards – with no obligation as to when or where you participate. Those who keep their profile updated, take part regularly, and choose reputable providers can easily become paid product testers.
