Introducing UpVoice | 100% Passive Data Collection Extension ($75+ Per Year, $5 Sign Up Bonus)
Update 09/01/19: Reposting because UpVoice is sponsoring a giveaway on /r/beermoney here!
Hey guys,
As I'm currently working on updating the passive data collection megapost, I decided I'll make some posts about individual new additions to the list.
UpVoice is the first addition to the list.
Introducing UpVoice
UpVoice is a new panel in the form of a Chromium browser extension.
According to UpVoice,
UpVoice is the user panel of an innovative market research firm that helps top brands make better marketing decisions. By being an active member of our elite panel community, you are making a direct impact on how multi-billion dollar corporations promote their brands online.
Essentially, as a panel member of UpVoice, they are trying to understand how users interact with ads. In exchange, they'll pay you in Amazon gift cards. You don't have to do anything, so long as you visit at least one of their "participating" websites every day. I'll talk more about that just below.
How It Works
In order to earn with UpVoice, most people won't have to do anything other than install the extension, and maybe adjust some adblocker settings.
Every day you have the extension installed, you will earn 10 tokens, so long as you visit one of the participating websites every day. Here are the participating websites:
- Youtube
- Amazon
Here's the catch: You must disable your adblocker for the sites you want to get credited for your visit.
It actually makes sense. They're trying to understand how you interact with ads. They won't really be able to do that if you're just blocking all the ads. I personally don't visit most of these sites at all, and the one I visit most (Youtube) unfortunately won't be seeing my adblocker removed just so I can get 10 tokens per day. The only site I visit on this list that I'm willing to have my adblocker removed is Twitter, and so long as I visit the site at least once per day, I'll get the full 10. Visiting multiple sites won't earn you more, and visiting a site multiple times per day won't earn you more.
So here's the earning breakdown:
600 Tokens = $10 Amazon GC
Every day you'll earn 10 tokens assuming you meet the requirements, for a total of 70 tokens per week. At a rate of 60 tokens per dollar, you'll be earning just over $1.16 per week you have the extension installed.
In addition you'll earn bonus points once you hit certain milestones.
- Once you sign up, you'll receive a 300 token bonus. (worth $5) (props to /u/toddu1)
- Once you reach 2100 tokens, you'll receive a 100 token bonus.
- Once you reach 3950 tokens, you'll receive a 300 token bonus.
I mean, based on my math, if these are all of the bonuses they have to offer, there's no way that should add up to the $75+ they are advertising. From daily earnings, that is just over $60 per year, and even with a 400 token bonus that's only just over $6 in bonuses.. but I guess we'll take their word for it.
Conclusion
Of course, like all other passive data collection methods, some people are going to pass on this because of the information that is being collected from you. Of all the other passive data collection options there are, this data is probably less personal/important, so more people might be willing to bite this time. Besides, all of these social networking sites already collect this information and use it for their own benefits. At least with this panel you'll be getting paid for it, especially when you think about how much of a "set and forget" this one is. I actually joined this panel many weeks back and totally forgot about it until I checked and saw in my notes that I was going to write a post about it. I checked my balance and I'm sitting at 560 tokens already, and I totally forgot the panel existed.
Edit: Received my first $10 Amazon gift card! Almost up to my second one as well.
This post will be added to the new passive data collection megapost once it's finally finished in probably a month or two based on my speed.
