Google Consumer Panel – a guide

Google Consumer Panel a guide

The app is called Google Consumer Panel and has been around for many years, but there are still many Android users who don’t know about it.

You can download the app from the Play Store for free. The app is synced with your Google account, so you don’t need to register or enter card details to get started.

This is how Google Consumer Panel works

In the Google Consumer Panel, you answer surveys in exchange for Google Play points.

These points can be used both to purchase apps and to make in-app purchases.

The latter means that you can, for example, pay for add-ons in games or subscriptions to streaming services with the money you earn.

That’s how much you can earn

Each survey gives you a maximum of eight kroner in Google Play points, which are automatically deposited into your account when you answer it.

Even if it’s a small amount per survey, over time it can help you save many hundreds of dollars.

Be aware that your points may expire if you do not use them for an extended period.

That way you get more surveys

Unfortunately, you cannot answer as many surveys as you like.

Sometimes there is no survey available, and then you have to wait a while before another one appears.

To get more surveys, you can share your location history with Google. Then you will receive surveys about the places you visited.

Then you should not use the app

The surveys are used to improve Google’s services, which is why the company pays users to answer them.

If you don’t want to share your opinions, your location or other personal information with Google, the Consumer Panel is not for you.

But if you don’t care about that, you can download the app here.
