Checklist

Checklist before you approve a research incentive

Checklist of seven things to check before approving a research incentive, from completion and answer quality to repeat respondents and tax limits.
Run every reward past these before you pay, so the money goes to real answers

A seven point checklist for researchers who pay participants. Use it before approving each incentive: confirm the interview was finished, the answers are real and on topic, the person is not taking part twice, and the payment can reach them within your yearly limit. Koji puts the interview's quality score and a repeat-address flag beside every reward, so most of these checks take a glance.

Where this appears

What's in this checklist

  • They finished the interview and did not drop out early
  • Answers are on topic and have some depth
  • The reward address is not shared with another participant
  • The amount matches what the invitation promised
  • The reward can be paid in the country they are in
  • It keeps the person under your yearly limit per person
  • The balance covers the reward
