For instance, they had an online movie rental survey, where I signed up for Blockbuster for $9.99 for the first month (you may cancel anytime once that month ends) then you fill out a short survey about the sign up process experience. Vindale in return reimburses you for any costs associated with sign up as well as extra money for your time.

Vindale always pays as specified and they are completely honest and I get to try out a lot of cool things for free. In the end the total that I got paid for Blockbuster from Vindale Research was $20 (9.99 for the trial fees I paid and the rest for my time) and I got a free month of movies. Payout is via check or Paypal every two weeks with a minimum $50 balance in account.
