Methodology
Online
Panelists were invited to complete the survey through online invitations, which were sent via email, an offer wall invite, or both. They were targeted based on pre-profiled criteria, including age, gender, region, and any banking information they may have provided.
Intercept/F2F
In markets where internet access is limited or online surveys are uncommon, we used face-to-face interception methodology instead of online sampling. Our interviewers approached potential respondents in pre-approved public locations to conduct the survey.
