Providing demographic details
When you sign up for BzzAgent, you’ll need to provide contact information and demographics. In this way, the company can target its members accordingly. As a result, they can better cater their products to the ideal demographic.
Conclusion
The BzzAgent platform is user-friendly, innovative, and fun to use. Users can find various packages according to their interests and the products they like to review. If you have a high BzzScore, you’ll be invited to participate in more campaigns. On the downside, BzzAgent doesn’t pay you any actual cash, so if you’re looking for side gigs to earn money, you’ll need to look elsewhere.

Our Values
We built HuginX around our core principles of openness, honesty and transparency. Your trust is of the utmost importance to us, which is why we’ll always be straight-up about how we review sites.
When it comes to running our website, we want to be entirely upfront about how we operate, how we make money, and how we keep the site a free resource for our millions of visitors.
We don’t accept payment to provide positive reviews, and providers will never have a say in how we choose the best sites. Our aim is to put you, the reader, first and foremost at all times.
A list of practices we never engage in:
- We will never accept money to review a product
- We will never accept money to change a product review
- We will never accept money to turn a blind eye to an issue or flaw
- We will never accept money to bias our research or investigations
