Try new stuff. Tell us what you think. Get rewarded.
Noted is a UK community of over 25,000 people who try new food, drink and household products before they hit shelves, and get rewarded for honest opinions. Free to join. Takes about five minutes. No spam, no catch, no small print.
Sign up. Tell us about you.
It takes about five minutes.
We will ask a few friendly questions: where you live, who lives with you, what you eat, what you buy, what you actually use. None of it is a trick. The more we know, the more relevant the invites we can send. We are not interested in matching you to studies you do not care about, because honest opinions about products you would never buy do not help anyone.
Your details stay with Noted.
Always GDPR-compliant. Never sold on. Promise.
Get invited to stuff that fits.
When something lands that matches you, we will email you.
When something lands that matches you, we will email you. The invite tells you exactly what is involved: what the product is, what the study is, where it happens, how long it takes, and what you get in return. If it sounds good, you say yes. If not, you say no. Zero pressure, zero guilt, zero nudging emails.
What you might get invited to:
- Short online surveys you can do on the sofa
- Boxes of new products to try at home
- Taste tests at our Birmingham or Bury St Edmunds testing hubs
- Focus groups and friendly group conversations
- In-home sessions where someone visits to see how you actually use something
- The occasional shopping trip with someone tagging along to chat
Try it. Share your honest view.
This is the easy bit, and the important one.
You try the product, you tell us what you really think. Brutally honest is fine. Brutally honest is the whole point. We are not looking for nice feedback or polite feedback. We are looking for true feedback, because that is what brands actually need to make better products.
Whether it is a five-minute survey, a tasting at the hub or a week-long trial at home, the principle is always the same: tell the truth, in your own words, in your own kitchen.
Get rewarded. Spend it on whatever.
Every study has a reward attached, and you always know what it is before you say yes.
Rewards build up in your personal panel account, and you can spend them on whatever you like, whenever you like. Vouchers for the high street brands you already shop with. Cash for higher-commitment studies. Free products to keep on home trials. The choice is yours.
Log in to your panel any time to see what you have earned, what is available to redeem and what new studies are open to you.
Your own panel. Your own space.
Once you sign up, you get your own personal Noted panel area. It is where everything happens.
No app to download. Works on your phone, your laptop, your tablet. Sign in from anywhere.
[TO CONFIRM: confirm whether the panel area is web-only or includes a future mobile app, so we describe it accurately]
- See every study you are invited to in one place
- Take part in short online surveys directly from your panel login
- Track the rewards you have earned across every study
- Redeem rewards on whatever you fancy, whenever you fancy
- Update your details and preferences as your life changes
- Pause, take a break or leave any time, no questions asked
Rewards you actually want.
We pay for your time properly, and we let you decide what to do with it.
Rewards build up in your panel account as you take part. You can spend them on the brands you already use, the things you have been meaning to treat yourself to, or save them up for something bigger. Whatever works for you.
What you can earn:
- High street vouchers for the brands you already shop with
- Cash payments for higher-commitment studies
- Free products to keep on home usage trials
- Early access to things that have not hit the shelves yet
Reward amounts depend on how much time and effort the study takes. A five-minute survey on the sofa might be a small voucher. A two-week home trial or a hub-based tasting session is rewarded properly. We always tell you exactly what you are getting before you say yes. No exploding offers. No small print. No “rewards” that turn out to be a prize draw.
Is it really free?
Yes. Always will be. If something ever asks you to pay to take part, it is not us.
Will you spam me?
No. We only email when something matches you. No nudges, no newsletters, no nonsense.
What happens to my data?
It stays with Noted. GDPR-compliant. Never sold on. Used to match you to relevant studies and absolutely nothing else.
Can I leave?
Any time. One click. No hard feelings, no chasing emails.
Who runs Noted?
Noted Fieldwork is a UK consumer fieldwork business.
We help brands understand what real people think of their products by running honest, properly designed studies, and we pay the people who take part. We are part of FIS Group, an established UK research and insight business. We have been doing this for years, the panel has 25,000 members across the UK, and our two purpose-built testing hubs are in Birmingham and Bury St Edmunds.
Real company, real people, real rewards. Not a side hustle.
How long does signing up take?
About five minutes. The questionnaire asks about your household, what you eat, what you drink, what you buy and what you are into. Answer honestly and the invites you get will be much more relevant.
How often will I get invited to studies?
Depends on how common or rare your profile is, and what brands are testing that month. Some panellists hear from us every couple of weeks. Others less often. We would rather send you fewer relevant invites than lots of irrelevant ones.
Do I have to do every study I get invited to?
No. Every invite is optional. Say yes, say no, say “not this one”. You decide.
How do I get my rewards?
Rewards are added to your personal panel account once a study is complete. You log in, choose your voucher (or cash payment depending on the study), and redeem. Easy.
Can I take part if I do not live near a testing hub?
Yes. Most of our studies run online or at home, anywhere in the UK. Hub-based tastings are an option if you live near Birmingham or Bury St Edmunds, but they are nowhere near the only thing on offer.
Who sees my answers?
The brand running each study sees your feedback in anonymised form. Your personal details are never attached to your opinions unless you have specifically agreed for a particular study, and even then we tell you upfront.
What if I want to leave?
Email us and we will remove you. No questions, no chasing,
no “are you sure” pop-ups.
Is this just for foodies?
No. Food and drink is a big part of what we do, but we also run studies on household products, personal care, drinks, snacks, ready meals, packaging, you name it. If you have opinions about the stuff you buy, you fit.
How old do I have to be?
[TO CONFIRM: confirm minimum age for panel sign-up]
Right then. Fancy joining?
Five minutes to sign up. Free to join, always will be. Spam-free forever. Leave whenever you like. The only thing we ask is that when you do take part, you tell us the truth.
