The exclusive National Consumer Panel program is once again accepting new participants! Since eligibility depends on your geographic location, readers can check to see if they qualify.
So, what exactly is the National Consumer Panel, and is it worth the effort to get accepted? Let’s explore the details.
What is National Consumer Panel?
The National Consumer Panel (NCP) is a collaborative effort between NielsenIQ and IRi, two of the leading consumer insights companies in the U.S.
As a panelist, you’ll use their free app, NPMobile, to scan barcodes of the items you purchase during your regular shopping trips at least once a week. By doing so, you’ll earn points that can be redeemed for rewards such as:
- Visa Gift Cards
- Amazon Gift Cards
- Tablets
- Keurig Coffee Machines
- Flat Screen TVs
- And much more from their extensive gift catalog!
In addition to scanning barcodes, you’ll provide some extra details, like the store where you shopped, whether you used a loyalty card, and the prices of the items.
The more you share your shopping habits (by scanning barcodes on your phone), the more rewards you’ll accumulate. For items without barcodes, you can manually enter them using the app’s in-app list feature.
When you provide your insights, they’re shared with manufacturers and retailers to help improve the products you regularly purchase.
How to Earn Rewards
The majority of your points will be earned by scanning barcodes from your regular shopping trips, but there are additional ways to boost your earnings.
By consistently participating in the National Consumer Panel, you’ll also gain automatic entries into exclusive member sweepstakes, including their quarterly $5,000 Cash Giveaway!
“It’s super easy. I treat it like a game and actually look forward to scanning my items every time. After just two months, I’ve already earned a $25 gift card!” – Gabby F.
Maximize Your Earnings
You can boost your points by participating in surveys, special studies, and even exclusive games within the app, which also offer sweepstakes entries and other prizes.
Track More Than Just Groceries
The National Consumer Panel is interested in everything you purchase. In addition to groceries, you can report data on your gas, prescriptions, takeout, and any other regular purchases you make!
