About Matrix Sciences Consumer Research

Matrix Sciences Consumer Research, formerly Contract Testing, has run consumer product testing for more than 30 years. Testers visit local test centers to taste, touch, smell and evaluate food, beverage, household and personal care products and answer questions. The company says sessions pay a minimum of $20 to $25, with more depending on the test type and length. How and when testers are paid was not stated.
