For research, panel and product teams
Where PayPal and Stripe run out of countries
Most panels pay participants through PayPal, Payoneer or Stripe. That holds up until your respondent is in Jakarta or Lagos, where those rails either don’t reach or land somewhere they can’t spend from. A gift card for a brand they already use does reach them.
The rails decide who you can recruit
Payment coverage quietly sets the boundary of your sample. If your incentive only clears in a handful of countries, your research only happens in those countries, and you end up calling that a methodology decision.
It shows up in the published documentation of the platforms doing this work. One testing provider states plainly that it offers no payment method other than PayPal and Payoneer. Another says it pays everyone through Stripe, with no gift card option at all.
Reach past the usual four countries
More than 5,000 brands across 100+ countries, weighted towards the regional names that matter locally rather than only the global ones.
The participant chooses
Send a link and let them pick their own brand, or take the value in crypto instead. You stop guessing what someone in another market actually wants.
One balance, one reconciliation
Fund once and draw against it across every market. Every order lands in a transaction ledger you can pull for finance.
Automated from your own tooling
Trigger rewards from your survey or research platform through the API, with delivery status returned by webhook and retried when your endpoint is unreachable.
