Exploring The Christian Mingle Success Rate

Methodology
- Consumers were reached by collaborating with one of our panel partners.
- Respondents received an incentive according to the panel’s requirements.
- Survata uses IP address to prevent duplicate respondents. This ensures that there are no duplicates when using one or multiple panels.
- All panel partners must comply with Survata’s standard of clean, accurate data. This includes, but is not limited to, having a policy that each account is validated and that the panel independently monitors each account.
