REDEEMING REWARDS

Every campaign offers a stated reward which is rewarded after an assignment completion.

BzzAgent is a media network, operating since 2002, that recruits "BzzAgents" to evaluate products and services and then share their opinions on them with people they know. BzzAgent has over one million member agents around the world, and uses the idea of word of mouth communication to generate measurable results for marketers.

Influence the Biggest Brands

BzzAgent has an impressive client list which includes: L’Oréal, Nestle, Proctor & Gamble and Purina. You may be invited to test products from international companies and have a major influence on the brand!

Test Merchandise

Members must receive an invitation to a campaign in order to participate. Assignments usually involve testing merchandise and coupons/rebate offers for free samples and then writing/sharing their thoughts on the brand online and on social media.

Being Assigned an “Activity”

If you are asked to test a product, in many cases you will be assigned any or all of the following activities:

  • Posting to social media about the product (Facebook, Twitter or Instagram)
  • Writing a review about the product you have been instructed to use
  • Uploading photos and videos about a given product

Communication Directors (Comm Devs) then rate and respond to the activities you submit based on guidelines, and you are awarded points based on the quality of the “buzz”.

Online Surveys

In addition to testing products, BzzAgent invites its members to participate in quick online survey opportunities for extra points and rewards. These also help the organization it you with the right products that you’ll be excited to try.

Collect Points and Free Products

Receive MyPoints and sometimes free products in exchange for your BzzAgent participation. Feel good about sharing your opinion to the world and gaining something in return.

Build your BzzScore

Each member accumulates a BzzScore on a yearly basis. It ranges from zero to 10 and takes into account all of the activities you participate in. Depending your level of participation, your BzzScore may go up and down throughout the year. The following are ways to keep your BzzScore high:

  • Putting detail and attention into your assigned activities
  • Staying up to date on all the latest survey opportunities
  • Being an influencer by involving your fellow friends in your BzzActivites
  • Connecting your BzzAgent profile to your social media accounts

The better your BzzScore, the more invites you will receive for new campaigns. You can view your BzzScore at any time from your member home page.

Earn Rewards

BzzAgent offers rewards as you participate. Some are unlocked along the way and some contain little surprises to keep you interested and always wanting more. Rewards are rewarded after various milestones or achievements, such as: your 10th Tweet, an exceptional photo, your 25th review, etc.

A lot of wasted time

October 11, 2016 by bobbie from United States

They sent me a product to review.Then I got hooked in all the surveys.With no compensation.You loose a lot of time in your life with this place.

Seemed promising but was a huge let down

September 7, 2016 by Lily from United States

Their strategy is to hook you with one or two full sized products to review, and just continue to data mine you and not send you anything afterwards. I joined in February, and within two months, I received two full size products to review, one was a deodorant sample and one was a reusable duster, things I wasn't really interested in, and despite how I told them I am an avid beauty and skincare user and I review them online regularly even when I buy them with my own money. I filled out all their survives related to product reviews and surveys regarding personal info which they send you duplicates of every few months so you can update your info. I checked backed daily from May to September filling out their 20 or so duplicate survives, and campaign qualifiers, and then in July I stopped receiving campaign qualifiers all together, even though they bombarded me constantly with surveys regarding personal info.

Waste of time

August 16, 2016 by angela from United States

Had high hopes for this, but ended up only using it to get a few points on MyPoints. I got only 2 things from them, Fixodent, which I do not use because i don't wear dentures, and a mouth wash that was HORRID. That was the review I gave, they said they want honesty, so I never got anything else. Been there 2 years, what a waste of time. Crap site.

If you like to do the same surveys over and over...

June 13, 2016 by Sue from United States

BzzAgent was fun at first. I was being invited to campaigns and had a score of 9.6 out of 10. It was a lot of work, though, and sometimes the "freebie" you received was a very small, puny sample (think of the travel size bottles). But I was ok with doing all that work if the product was a decent size.

Lately no matter what I do I get no campaign invitations, and I have to do the same "qualifier" surveys over and over again. And, no matter what I do, my score keeps dropping like a rock, down to 7.9 now.

BzzAgent used to be fun but now it's not worth the trouble or time.

ask for far too personal information

May 13, 2016 by Robb from United States

You need to realize, sure they give you a free sample or two, but after being a bzzagent for over a year, and receiving a free mascara and shampoo about half way into being a buzz agent I realized I was giving away my very personal information and getting nothing in return. They already had my address and name, members of my family, their birth date, health problems, where I shop, my family's net income.....they rope you into thinking you will get freebies if you continue to participate in their surveys, well I did their surveys and received excellent scores on my ( four) campaigns. After about 10 months of doing nothing but answering my surveys, giving away very personal information, I was getting absolutely nothing in return.
If you want some freebies, look for coupons in your weekly flyers, don't compromise your personal information like I did.
100% regret being a bzzagent.
