Paid Interview: Indian Platform Economy
Budget: ₹100 – ₹400 INR
I am running an academic study on how digital platforms are shaping livelihoods in India, and I want to capture the real‐world economic impact straight from the people at the front line: platform workers. If you drive for a ride-hailing app, deliver food or groceries, take on tasks through a gig app, or earn through any other digital labour platform, your perspective is exactly what this project needs.
What to expect
• A 30–45 minute one-to-one interview (Zoom, Google Meet, or phone—whatever suits you).
• Questions will centre on earnings, costs, job stability, work routines, and how platform policies affect your income opportunities.
• All responses are kept confidential and anonymised in the final research output.
Deliverable
Simply complete the scheduled interview and, if you wish, share any relevant screenshots or documents that illustrate your typical weekly income or expenses.
Timing
I’m aiming to wrap up interviews as soon as possible, so early responders will be prioritised for scheduling this week.
Payment
You will receive a fixed participation fee immediately after the session is completed—details confirmed when we set the appointment.
If you’re interested, send a brief note with the platform(s) you work on, how long you’ve been active, and your preferred interview window.
