The Springbok Pulse Survey: Rugby, Loyalty & The Green & Gold
Purpose: Purpose: This survey captures the unfiltered opinions of South Africans on the Springboks—the reigning back-to-back Rugby World Cup champions and a constant source of national debate. With the build-up to Rugby's Greatest Rivalry series against the All Blacks, we want to know: do you trust Rassie's selections? Can you afford to watch the Boks live? Who should wear the Green & Gold? Target Audience: South African adults (18+) who follow rugby (even casually)

The Dootsa Lover's Retreat Survey: Crafting the Ultimate Couple's Getaway
Purpose: Purpose: This survey is designed to gather comprehensive insights from South Africans in relationships to shape Dootsa's next big reward: a couple's retreat experience. We want to know what you truly desire—from destinations and activities to accommodation styles and retreat lengths. With 69% of South Africans planning more holidays in 2026 and 66% traveling specifically to spend uninterrupted time with their partner, this reward is perfectly timed to meet a growing need for intentional, meaningful escapes. Target Audience: South African adults (18+) in relationships

The GNU Pulse Survey: South Africa's Coalition Reality
Purpose: Purpose: This survey captures South Africans' unfiltered views on the Government of National Unity (GNU)—the biggest political story of the year. Thirteen months after the ANC lost its outright majority for the first time since 1994, we want to know: is this coalition a "necessary step" or an "unholy alliance"? What would citizens change if they had the power? And where do they get their information? Target Audience: South African adults (18+)

The Gauteng Water Pulse Survey: When the Taps Run Dry
Purpose: Purpose: This survey captures the lived reality of Gauteng residents facing the province's escalating water crisis—a crisis the SA Human Rights Commission has called a "daily violation of basic human rights". With water losses reaching 49.2% due to leaks and illegal connections, and recurring outages forcing families to walk 45 minutes with wheelbarrows to fetch water from cemeteries, we want to know: where are you from? What's your daily reality? Who do you hold accountable? And what would you say to those responsible? Target Audience: Gauteng residents (18+)

The Mjolo Pulse: A Survey on the State of Dating in South Africa
Purpose: Purpose: This survey explores the modern dating landscape—the "mjolo" scene—in South Africa. It focuses on what men and women are looking for, the role of money in attraction, and key "prequalifications" for each gender. The findings will produce a fun yet insightful report that companies will find irresistible for deeper exploration. Target Audience: Single South Africans aged 18–45

The Ultimate Fast-Food Loyalty Test: KFC vs Nando's vs Chicken Licken
Purpose: Purpose: This survey captures fast-food preferences and loyalty drivers across South Africa's top chicken brands. The data will answer the questions brands are most anxious about before they even ask—revealing what truly drives choice in a R177 billion market where KFC leads with ~25% market share, yet over a third of consumer attention is shifting to alternate brands. Target Audience: South African fast-food consumers (general public)

Rocks
What are Rocks?
Rocks are Dootsa's thank-you rewards — the balance you earn for sharing your view and spend on vouchers, airtime, gift cards, and partner items in the rewards shop.
How you earn Rocks
You collect Rocks when you complete surveys, hit streak milestones, refer friends, and unlock tier bonuses. Every survey shows how many Rocks you'll earn before you start.
How you spend Rocks
Spend Rocks in the shop on airtime, vouchers, gift cards, and partner rewards — subject to availability (Terms §6). Your tier is based on lifetime Rocks earned; spending Rocks never lowers your tier.
Rocks are not cash and cannot be withdrawn. They are promotional thank-you rewards under our Terms of Service.
