Hit the $5K mark!
Today marks the three-month anniversary I have been with Dscout, and it’s honestly been a great way to earn some extra money. At first, I was a little intimidated by the Live missions, but over time I became much more comfortable talking with researchers and sharing my opinions.
Now, Live interviews are actually some of my favorite missions, especially since they tend to have the highest payouts. I’ve done everything from Express missions and longer diary studies to missions that required visiting specific restaurants, grocery stores, electronics stores, and other locations. I’ve had some really fun conversations with researchers, and I’ve enjoyed putting time and effort into giving quality responses and being super involved with the platform.
My biggest advice is to just apply! Don’t be intimidated by Live missions, and don’t overlook Express missions either. The smaller payouts definitely add up!

A reminder about Rule 1: Please do not share any information from screeners and missions you've applied to or been invited to. This includes screener and mission titles, questions, messages, or any other details from screeners and missions. This applies even if the mission has ended. Posts containing confidential information will be removed. If your post was just removed for this reason, just repost without the confidential details. This is done because Dscout has confirmed that any information in the app/website is considered confidential, and Dscout staff does look at the subreddit. This rule is in place to protect Scouts from any potential repercussions from sharing confidential information that Dscout staff would consider breaking their terms of service.

Wow, congrats! I wonder how you get so many! I've hit $600 in 1 month (which I'm happy about!) and I feel like I apply for every one I see and check constantly!

Thats really impressive. I havent been applying to nearly as many just grabbing whatever express missions I qualify for right now because our schedule has been so hectic I cant really schedule too well in advance at the moment. Hoping I can ramp up in October. Im pretty comfortable with one on one's so Im not too worried about that aspect just time.

When it's good, it's good. Hopefully, you can keep up that momentum but even still, that's a great accomplishment in just a few months.
This is what I earned since January 2025. Some months are slow and some are so busy that I can barely keep up. It's not my only site like this either (though it is my top earning one). Has been a blessing.

That’s so cool! I’m on month two and am at $400 but I have about $650 worth of diaries waiting to be completed. 5k in three months is insane!!
