Get paid for your opinions

Australia's #1 Paid Online Focus Groups

What Is An Online Focus Group?

Want to share your opinions and help shape new products or services—without leaving home? At Realtime Research, we run paid online focus groups where everyday Australians join small group discussions via Zoom or Teams to share their thoughts with real brands.

These online focus group sessions are casual, interactive, and guided by a professional moderator. You’ll be asked about your experiences, preferences, and opinions—there are no right or wrong answers!

It’s a great way to have your voice heard, influence future products, and get paid for your time—all from the comfort of your home and all you need is a laptop or desktop computer with a working internet connection.

We also offer other online research opportunities, like online panels and online surveys.
