In 2020, Socratic Forum announced the closure of their survey panel. Users with outstanding balances are asked to contact [email protected]. Any available balances may be redeemed by sending an email to this address using your Socratic Forum account email address before 7/1/2020.

The Socratic Forum is a dynamic survey panel that collects opinions to influence the business decision-makers of tomorrow. The panel is part of Socratic Technologies, an organization that helps companies develop new products, build market awareness, promote branding, test product usability and measure customer satisfaction. As a panel member, your insights and experiences will be used to shape new areas of development and influence the evolution of products and services. Your participation on the Socratic Forum panel is also always 100% voluntary.

Unfortunately, Socratic Forum is no longer operational. Click the button to discover survey panels that are running and are actively looking for new members!

Survey Details

Once you are a registered member of the Socratic Forum, you will be sent new survey invitations by email on an average basis of 2-3 times per month. Some surveys may be very short, taking only about 5 minutes to complete, while others may take 20 to 25 minutes to finish. The longer the survey, the more rewards will be attached for its completion as your time is very valuable!

Rewards

As your time is valuable, Socratic Forum rewards you for your participation in their surveys. Most surveys offer drawings for online gift certificates, cash prizes, or electronic equipment. A number of surveys also offer guaranteed incentive payments to members who qualify for and complete these surveys. Both the number and dollar amount of gifts are offered for taking a survey depend on the length and difficulty of the survey. Longer and more complicated surveys offer larger gifts or more chances to win.

Sweepstakes Entries

Some surveys offer sweepstakes entries, instead of cash. The prizes can come in the form of gift certificates, cash prizes or the hottest electronic merchandise. The longer the survey, the more entries you will receive.

"Prizes and Winners" Page

A nice feature on the Socratic website is the "Prizes and Winners" page which shows the breakdown of how much was given out in survey cash earnings and how many surveys were offered that month.

Privacy of Information

All surveys conducted with the Socratic Forum are for research purposes only. Your information will never be sold to a third party and will always be viewed in aggregate form along with hundreds of other answers. Your privacy and identity will always be protected.

Eligibility: Socratic Forum is currently not recruiting any new members; their "join now" link points to a website maintenance page which has been displaying for months. If/when registration opens back up, international members, 18+ will be accepted.

Decent Company

February 26, 2012 by Lisa from United States

I qualify for about half of the surveys they send me. I agree they should send more... I'm sad they send checks still. Pay Pal is so much easier and quicker. But they do pay eventually and I believe they are legit and honest.

Responsible and Reliable

September 12, 2011 by Lea from United States

Receive an average of $3 per survey. Can access reward account for detailed list of completed surveys and accrued credit. $5 minimum cashout increments which is excellent. I usually wait until I accumulate more before I cashout. I don't qualify for many surveys but still worthwhile. A responsible and reliable no-nonsense survey company.

I love this panel

I haven't been with them too long, but so far they've been great. The surveys are quite decent and they send incentives very quickly.

Where is my incentive?

I haven't received the last 2 amazon certificates I requested even though it says processed. No response from customer service.

I would recommend it

I like Socratic. They don't send out nearly enough surveys, however-they usu. pay @ least $5/survey. Which is very good in the Survey World. Also, they're usually prompt with their payments. The cash out level is only $5, so, you can be paid by only doing one survey. The only other downside is that they don't offer Paypal. But, you have the opt. of cashing out, requesting an online Amazon gift code or charity donations.
