Further Developments at Branded Surveys

In November 2017, Mintvine underwent a transformation, rebranding as Branded Surveys. In the months that followed, this new entity gradually rolled out several enhancements to their online survey platform. These updates encompassed refreshed branding, a revamped interface, the launch of the Branded Elite program, and more.

Fast forward to 2019, and Branded Surveys continues to refine its survey offerings with additional improvements.

Updates to the Branded Elite Referral Program

• Silver Badge Members: If you’re a current Silver Badge holder (new members begin at the Bronze level, advancing through survey participation and credit accumulation), you will now receive a 50-point account credit for every referral who achieves Silver Badge status.
• Elite Gold Members: For each active Elite Silver member you refer, you’ll earn a generous 200 points.

New Incentives on the Branded Elite Leaderboard

The Branded Elite Leaderboard is a dynamic feature that presents opportunities for daily, weekly, and monthly rewards. It tracks the top performers, awarding them with bonus points. Additionally, a random winner is selected for a points prize at daily, weekly, and monthly intervals. The frequency and value of these random prizes have been enhanced.

• Daily Top 50: Earn a 50-point account credit.
• Weekly Top 50: Earn a 200-point account credit.
• Monthly Top 20: Earn a 300-point account credit.
• Random Prize Winner: Daily (50 points), Weekly (500 points), Monthly (1000-point account credit).

Changes to Poll Participation

While daily polls remain accessible, the rate of earning has been adjusted, and the ‘poll streak’ feature has been discontinued. Previously, completing a series of polls would yield additional points, a benefit that is no longer in effect.

New Bonus Points for Survey Completions

A new system of bonus points rewards users for completing a series of surveys within a week:

• 12 Surveys in 7 Days: Bronze badge holders earn an additional 5%, Silver 10%, and Gold 15% of their approved points total.
• 20 Surveys in 7 Days: Bronze badge holders earn an additional 7%, Silver 12%, and Gold 17% of their approved points total.
• 30 Surveys in 7 Days: Bronze badge holders earn an additional 9%, Silver 14%, and Gold 19% of their approved points total.

Note that the previous ‘You’re an ace!’ account bonuses are no longer offered.

Maintaining Badge Status

To retain your badge color, continued participation is required, as badge status is subject to re-evaluation on the first day of each month.

In Conclusion

Branded Surveys is committed to evolving and enhancing their survey platform, responding to client demands while ensuring a rewarding experience for their members. Although the reception of these updates has been mixed, the platform remains dedicated to ongoing improvement and innovation.
