Prolific
Academic and commercial research studies. Join only if the waitlist and study eligibility fit your situation.
Know before you apply
Prolific publishes a minimum study rate of $8 per hour; this is not an hourly wage for all time spent on the platform.
Study availability depends on researcher demand and eligibility. Account checks and a waitlist may apply.
Count waiting, setup, and rejected or unpaid attempts when measuring your own effective return.
The catch. A waitlist can delay access. A study rate is not a promise of continuous paid work.
