I think a lot of the negative reviews come from people who are frustrated with continuously getting rejected. They pay well for a reason. You have to be persistent, consistent and honest. As you answer questions, Dscout is building a profile for you. If you’re honest and consistent, you will eventually find “missions” that you qualify for. The more you complete successfully, the more likely you are to qualify for new missions. It takes a lot of patience and a bit of luck. I was very skeptical and withheld judgment until I received payment. But if you stick with it, you can actually make money on this app.

I signed up in September, was able to complete 2 small missions and have not been able to "qualify" for a single study since. EVERYTHING is not a good fit. Too bad, these pay really well.

Tread carefully - They initially did not pay me for a thoughtful & thorough review. I very carefully did an express mission with multiple videos and question responses and was quite thoughtful in my responses. I even took longer than it estimated as made notes to refer to before hand. I had a steady video and clear audio and made sure i covered everything. They refused to pay me, saying it was not up to their "quality standards" which seemed fishy to me as I do a ton of other surveys and are always told i do a great job. After I contacted them they said there was an upload issue and said they would pay me as it was their error, but I wouldn't have been paid had I not contacted them. The customer service was prompt and great, id just keep in mind that this could happen. (im updating my review from 1 star to 3 stars because of the great customer service response)

1 star at the moment done my first mission said finished on 22nd didn't close until 25th after I said about it seems to good to b true had no update regarding payment just keep getting told wait 10 days can't understand y it takes so long when other sites are straight away or within a day or 2

I was working with somebody through Dscout evaluating the phone tool that we are using to work remotely for my business. I’ve spent weeks and weeks doing all of the dscout uploads. And I have not heard back from the person that I’m doing this for since before Christmas. When I reached out to dscout I was told they had no idea who I was talking about. But I should reach back out to that person. Who had a Dscout email address. I wasted my time and they got all the information that they needed and then ghosted me.

Decent app. I don't get selected much, but when I do the pay is pretty good in my opinion.

This is my all time favorite side hustle of all time and I can submit payment proof. I have never had any issues with payment. Jobs range from a few minutes to a couple hours but the pay is well worth it. Jobs are varied so there is something for everyone and incudes immediate payout on mini missions. Topics are always of interest . Never had a boring mission,

The site itself is fine - I've been using the site since 2020 as a scout - The employees are prompt and polite. It's companies not knowing how the missions and sites work that is the issue. They accidentally send invitations before going "That was an accident." I recently joined a mission that ended suddenly after doing one of the steps. I do agree that the Express missions are rather hit or miss when it comes to being paid, though there are steps taken to remedy this; You won't get paid immediately, but at least you will be paid. If this is happening across multiple researchers, something is unclear or confusing in the documentation. We are now having mission payouts happen days later. The company protects themselves by asking us to wait "7-10 Business days", but in the past, it would take maybe a day at most. Any delay will be seen as a service issue, no matter what you write in.
