GfK market research - scan purchases and get rewards (sponsor)

The company GfK, which is advertised as “Growth from Knowledge”, offers consumers the opportunity to help shape what is on offer in supermarkets with their help. For this purpose, your own purchases are registered via an app or the so-called GfK scanner, the quantity and price are added, and consumer behavior is used as a measured value for the success of products. Of course, the whole thing should also be worthwhile, which is why there is a points system that is linked to the issue of rewards. Depending on the number of points, you can choose from various rewards from the areas of household, technology, leisure, family and vouchers. You can also donate your points.

Participate in GfK market research with your own purchases

Market research generally ensures that certain products, offers and services come onto the market and others do not. It can be carried out in the form of surveys, test runs, experiments and surveys. The GfK offer takes a different path. With an app, a scanner or an online list, consumers register their own purchases and thus measure their popularity. For every entry - i.e. for every purchase submitted - there are points. These can be collected and eventually exchanged for rewards. There are small, low-priced bonuses as well as Apple iPads, Canon cameras and other high-priced items.
