JOIN THE COMMUNITY
Is this real?
Yes, we are one of many market research companies that conduct research with consumers of our clients’ products. The major difference is we focus on video games – not only will we reward you for your time and opinions about them, but if you like video games, then our topics of conversation will always be exciting!

Please click here to open the intake form. After completing the survey, we will add you to our internal research panel if you meet the criteria to join.

  1. Apply to join Good Gamer Group.
  2. Members receive an email and/or SMS notification when a new opportunity is available. You must apply for each opportunity individually to be considered.
  3. If your interests look like a strong match for the research, one of our recruiters will set up a quick phone call, to discuss your relevant gaming experience and details of the project in greater detail.
  4. If, after the phone call, you are accepted into the study, your recruiter will confirm the time and date of participation via email.
  5. After your participation in the project is complete, we’ll send you the promised incentive within 1-2 business days.

Interpret conducts a wide variety of research.

  • Typically, you will have the opportunity to give your feedback on unreleased games or early concepts that are not available to the general public.
  • In some studies, you will play a pre-release build of the game. In others, you might be asked to share your feedback on ideas or design elements from a game that is not ready to be played yet. And in others, we might want to talk with you about your personal experience, to learn more about why you enjoy playing the games you like.
  • There are also research options that are a smaller time commitment, like a short survey for a $5 gift card, or participation in an online community where we pay for completing short tasks at your convenience.

Since we are a market research company, and not a publisher or developer, we invite you to give 100% honest feedback – no hurt feelings if you don’t like our client’s game.

You’ll receive your incentive via email to the same email address you used to sign up. The reward comes via a third party called Tremendous – you’ll have the option to choose between a pre-paid VISA in your local currency or gift card of your choice (Amazon, Target, etc.). You may also cash out through an ACH transfer, PayPal, or Venmo for a 6% transaction fee.  

 

Redeeming is as easy as clicking a button. The best part is, we never ask for personal information like bank account number. Note that if you are in the United States and exceed $2,000 in rewards in one calendar year, you’ll be required to complete a W9 per IRS guidelines.  

We value your privacy – we never, for any reason, share your personal information outside of our company. The information we do collect is only used to contact you about upcoming research opportunities. If at any time you would like to unsubscribe, we provide that option at the bottom of each GGG email.

From time to time, we will run trivia contests or promotional giveaways on social media as a thank you to our community and to encourage further engagement with GoodGamerGroup.
