why is it every time i try to do a survey on this site. im not a match for them  i guess u have to make a certain amount of money to be able, who knows

Unfortunately, that's the nature of the beast when it comes to taking surveys.  The company paying for the research can name the specific qualifications they want for people who are going to respond to it.  So, if you don't match the specific household income, age, location, job, or what not, you just won't qualify.  For instance, if a company who makes lawncare equipment wants some feedback, a person who lives in an apartment or condo who don't have lawns to maintain, their opinion means little to them compared to someone who owns/rents a home or someone who works in lawn maintenance.

Surveys aren't for everyone.  If they are frustrating you, look at other ways to earn here (there are many).  Or, just keep on trying.  Eventually you should get matched to one!  Good luck!

Just keep trying.  I think there is one that fit you.  I nearly didn't fit any myself.  But last week while I try one and I earn 1.75.  I guess just keep trying.

Excellent and informative answer, Oryon20.

I just wanted to add that it is NOT just on this site that you'll find this; the same thing happens on all the survey sites I have visited and/or do surveys on. But there are times when I can get right into them too, often more than just one or two.
The main thing I found to be true was (well TWO things really):
1) DON'T get discouraged when you aren't qualifying, and

2) When you do get "qualified" at first, and are well into doing a survey and then get "kicked out", so to speak, don't get angry, upset, or discouraged - it doesn't help. You just have to blow it off and keep on trying, or it can make you really feel miserable. 

Good luck!!

I know how you feel, its like I don't qualify for surveys anymore, and the ones that look like I'm gonna finish ends up saying i didn't qualify... I guess sponsor are being particular.

You just have to keep on trucking.  It's very annoying to waste your time and not qualify...but thems the breaks.

I just figured they were a little bias, but this makes more sense thank you! Like you said there are other things that can be done like the paid to click/emails/videos...etc. Its a slow build but its getting there

I never looked at it like that I just figured they were a little bias that maybe I had to be a member a little bit longer, but this makes more sense thank you! Like you said there are other things that can be done like the paid to click/emails/videos...etc. Its a slow build but its getting there

I still feel the surveys are a little bogus because I have lived in a house before so I can give my opinion on lawncare if needed. You never forget how to take care of a lawn the basic still apply. Or what if my child does lawncare during the summer. Does it have to be your own home that lawncare is given. My son does his grandmothers lawn and is very good at.
I think they should ask "have you ever" questions that way some of us could qualify for the surveys.
I understand that all the surveys have a set criteria but at least offer some surveys that I qualify for that are more geared toward my profile and pay a little too. Don't keep having me get 25 minutes into a survey only to be told I don't qualify for it. I have done several surveys, ones that really interest me but never get credited for them.
I will stick with FusionCash because like I said its a slow build for those of us who don't qualify for surveys but do others things on FC.

the one I did today for the snack (not approved)...I would like to know why do they need to know annual income. The poorest person in the world should be able to qualify for that ....I mean jeez it's only snacks
