What is a marketplace?
In the insights industry, a marketplace is the name given to a platform that allows organizations who need market research services to connect with the right sample providers.
Think of it like driving for Uber. The difference is, when you come to Cint, you’re on the lookout for insights and data, not a passenger to take home after their dinner reservation.
As a supplier/audience manager/community manager, you’re looking to generate revenue and engage your audience, and to do that you need to connect with buyers (or researchers) who want to and can pay for your audience to share their honest opinions, repeatedly.
This is where paid surveys come in.
By connecting your audience to Cint’s marketplace, we will send your audience relevant survey opportunities which they will be rewarded for once they complete them. As an audience manager, you’ll be able to generate revenue alongside your user base as they complete surveys.
The magic lies in ensuring that the right respondent is invited to participate in a relevant survey so they can complete it successfully. Enter the Cint Exchange.

Why are marketplaces crucial for suppliers?
A marketplace serves as a key platform for panel owners and community managers worldwide to generate revenue and reward members through paid survey opportunities.
“Cint provides the critical infrastructure that enables suppliers, respondents, and buyers to interact programmatically and at scale, anytime and anywhere,” says Anna Malitka, Cint’s Senior Director, Partner Success. “We make it simple for our partners to integrate with us based on their already-existing technology, depth of technical expertise, and available resources, freeing them up to focus on achieving their business goals.”
