Where can I view e-Rewards Medical’s Privacy Policy & Terms & Conditions?

Our Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions are available online for you to review at your leisure.

How do I receive surveys?

We will always email you if there is a new survey or profiling questionnaire to take. Please ensure that your email provider is not blocking emails from e-Rewards Medical. You can also see your available surveys when you log in to your Member Profile.

Your chance to be invited to a survey depends on a number of factors, such as the amount and type of surveys we are conducting at a time and the amount of profiling information we have for you. Please see our Terms & Conditions for more information.

Our email always includes "@e-Rewardsmedical.net" or "@e-Rewardsmedical.com" in the from address. If you are not sure that the email you received is from e-Rewards Medical, please contact our  Member Support Team .

How long does it take to complete a survey?

Each survey we send you will vary in length, but will typically take less than 20 minutes to complete. Your survey invitation will tell you how long each survey should take and how long you will have to respond.

Why do you ask me the same questions in different surveys?

Personal demographic and profile data regarding our Members is only shared with our clients on a singular or aggregate basis. Our surveys describe the profile and demographics data of an e-Rewards Medical Member, or group of Members, without specifically identifying an individual Member. Therefore, when our research clients want this type of data, they must ask you to provide it to them directly. This is why you will be asked the same or similar questions in different surveys.

Can I change my response If I select the wrong answer?

Unfortunately, once you submit an answer on a survey, you cannot change it. We do this to protect the integrity and accuracy of the data we collect.

How do you get in the survey once you go to the Home page?

If you are unable to gain access to your survey, please try the following:

Copy and paste the link from your invitation into the browser address bar and press enter. This will take you directly to the correct page. Please ensure you copy the entire web address into the browser as sometimes the link can spread over two lines.

We recommend that you use the latest version of popular browsers such as Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox to take your surveys as some older browsers may not be compatible.

Why didn't I qualify for the survey?

You may not qualify for a survey for a number of different reasons, based on demographic criteria, qualifications or area of expertise. We make sure that we place questions that could disqualify our members at the very beginning of the survey, so your valuable time is not wasted.

We highly recommend that you keep your profile up to date, as this will increase your chances of getting invited to surveys that are most appropriate for you and reduce the number of survey disqualifications.

Please note: We will not pass on any of the information you have given to us in the course of uncompleted surveys to our clients.

Why is the survey now closed?

The majority of surveys are open for a few days. However, some surveys are more popular than others and close quickly if the quota is reached sooner than the proposed deadline. Our system automatically closes the survey once the desired number of respondents has been reached.

We always try to limit the number of invites we send so that the members we do invite have a higher chance of completing the survey.

Why am I receiving survey invitations if I’m not a e-Rewards Medical Member?

We want to know what you think! e-Rewards Medical sends market research invitations to healthcare professionals that are not currently Members of the e-Rewards Medical Program to supplement survey data from our current Members and extend an invitation to enroll into the program. Non-member survey invitations are sent via email.

If you do not wish to receive any further survey invitations from e-Rewards Medical, simply  get in touch with our Member Support Team.

Why am I NOT receiving surveys invitations from e-Rewards Medical?

e-Rewards Medical only sends email to Members with confirmed email addresses. If you recently joined e-Rewards Medical and have never received an email from us, your email address may not yet be confirmed. Check your inbox and Bulk/Spam folders for the Membership Activation email and follow the instructions provided to activate your membership and confirm your email address.

If you have confirmed your email address or have previously received email from us, it is possible that your ISP Spam filtering software is causing email from e-Rewards Medical to be mistakenly identified as spam.

Can I stop receiving survey invitations?

Certainly, although unsubscribing from email invitations will also cancel your e-Rewards Medical membership.

How do I earn rewards?

You'll earn a reward each time you qualify and complete a market research survey. The amount that can be earned for participating in a market research study will be stipulated in each survey invitation. Not only will you earn a reward each time you qualify for and complete a survey, you'll also be able to share your unique viewpoint and expertise — all while learning about new products and technological advancements in the healthcare community.

How do I choose my reward?

After successfully qualifying and completing a survey, you will receive a Reward Confirmation Email containing your reward details and a unique token. Simply, log in to the Reward Center, redeem your token and choose your reward. You will be able to select either a virtual e-Rewards Medical Prepaid Mastercard® (ready for use instantly), a physical Mastercard Prepaid Card (which will be mailed to you), or save your reward for later. Please note that redemption of your Virtual Mastercard® may require verification of your identity by the financial institution responsible for issuing your Virtual Mastercard®, and that such verification may require you to provide your date of birth, tax identification number, and similar information.Failure to provide the valid information verification can result in forfeit of your reward.

When will my reward be available for use?

Your reward will be available for use immediately after the successful qualification and completion of a survey. Log in to the Reward Center  and enter the token from your Reward Confirmation Email and your reward amount will be instantly credited into your account.

If you choose to redeem for a virtual Mastercard Prepaid Card, your credit will be available to use instantly. Simply record the token number and follow the instructions for use. If you choose to redeem for a physical Mastercard Prepaid Card, it will be processed and mailed to you within 5-7 business days.

If you have any issues upon activation of your token or Mastercard Prepaid Card, please  get in touch  with our Member Support Team and request that we confirm the status of your reward. To help us solve your issue as quickly as possible, please provide the description of the study, the PIN or invite code and the date you responded to the survey.

How do I view my available rewards?

By visiting the Reward Center . You'll be able to see all the rewards you've earned and banked from your completed surveys, as well as the rewards you have already redeemed. To see the tokens you have banked, simply login to the Reward Center, and click on "Redeem" at the top of the page. To see the tokens you have redeemed, click on "My History" at the top of the page.

Please note: All survey attempts for which you do not receive a reward will not be tracked in the Reward Center.

What's the difference between my Member Profile & the Rewards Center?

Your Member Profile is found here, on the e-Rewards Medical website. This is where you will update your contact and occupational information, find our  Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions  information and view your available surveys.

The Reward Center is where you can track your completed surveys and redeem your earned rewards. If you need to change or update your contact information in regards where your rewards are sent, please do so in the "My Profile" tab in the Reward Center.

Please note: The e-Rewards Medical Program and Reward Center operate as two separate websites. You will log-in to each website with the email address and password of your choice. We recommend using the same email/password combination for both websites in the event that you forget your login credentials.

Will I always be rewarded for taking part in research?

Yes. If you qualify for and complete a survey, you will be rewarded.

However, if we identify that a respondent is not honest in his/her approach to research, for example by providing meaningless answers or trying to do multiple completions of the same survey, we cannot reward them. This occurs very rarely and is only used as a means to stop the few dishonest people from spoiling the opportunity for everyone else.
