About Media Rewards

Our Story

The story starts when the founders are watching the Olympic Games, and in between sports TV moments, they were bombarded with irrelevant and annoying ads. Advertisers want to understand if their TV and radio ads are seen or heard. We’re always passionate about new ways of making some easy money on the side. The idea of Media Rewards was born; a new way for people to easily earn rewards, simply going about what they watch and listen to and taking surveys.

Media Rewards is developed and designed in the Netherlands by people who are passionate about understanding how consumers appreciate media. Founded in 2014 on the back of the canals of Leiden in the Netherlands, Beatgrid is a fast-growing company that is at the forefront of the TV and radio revolution. The way people watch, listen, and engage with media has fundamentally changed. Media Rewards is seen as a trustworthy, reliable and privacy and user-centric cross-media audience measurement solution that offers marketers the chance to track cross-channel advertising efforts from a single source. We’re on a journey with a clear destination: we want to create the easiest and most passive way for consumers to earn rewards by passively sharing media habits and taking part in polls and micro surveys.

Depending on your points, you can be invited to partake in surveys. Once a new survey is available, you will receive an email and app push notification for a survey invitation. Always try to respond quickly to survey invites, as the survey stays open for a limited amount of time.

Brands would like to have your opinion and measure if their audience has seen or heard their ads.

Your data along with all of your paid survey answers are anonymised for aggregated marketing research reports. For example “On average, shoppers between 25-49 years who have seen the McDonald’s TV ad 5+ times have a greater chance of eating a McDonald’s than those who have seen it 3+ times”.

Just leave your phone on, and we’ll take care of the rest. Your score determines your position (For example; TOP 15%). At the end of the month, we determine in which prize draw you will be entered.
