Frequently asked questions

Does Tremendous charge a platform fee?

Tremendous is completely free to use. You can sign up and send incentives in minutes. There are no costs, minimums, or commitments. You pay face value for gift cards, prepaid cards, and charitable donations. We charge a small fee to use monetary options (ACH, PayPal, Venmo). Volume discounts may be available for spend over $100k.

What is the average incentive for a survey?

Deciding on the right incentive amount for participants can be a challenge. Many variables contribute to determining the right amount to incentivize. We did some research to find out the right amount to offer to keep both your participants and your budget happy. Visit our incentives calculator to learn more.

Are research incentives taxable?

The IRD required recipients to report earnings on a tax refund if they are a US resident and redeem $600 or more in a year. Tremendous has an automated W-9 feature that collects the information you will need to issue them IRS form 1099 at tax time. Learn more about research incentives and tax implications.
