Sports Betting Habits, Spend, and Promotions Survey

Measures how adults engage with sports betting apps: which platforms they use, how often and how much they wager, how promotions shape behavior, and how aware they are of problem-gambling warning signs. An AI follow-up digs into the 'why' behind spending patterns and promo influence that closed questions can't fully capture. For market researchers and responsible-gambling teams.

Q11
AI Interview

Explore the reasoning behind this respondent's spend and betting frequency: ask what typically triggers a betting session (a game they're watching, a promo notification, boredom, socializing), and whether their actual spend last month matched what they intended to spend. If they said promotions influence which app they use, probe a specific recent example of a promo they used and whether it changed how much or how often they bet. If they indicated they tried to cut back and found it difficult, gently ask what made it hard and whether they've looked into any support resources — do not diagnose or lecture, just listen and note details.

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

Why this template

What this template is built to do — we found no directly comparable template from other survey tools to review.

What sets it apart

  • Combines closed-ended tracking (platforms used, frequency, spend, bet types, promo usage) with an adaptive AI follow-up that probes the 'why' behind spend and betting frequency — something static multiple-choice/matrix questions can't do on their own
  • Includes a dedicated problem-gambling awareness question and a question about failed attempts to cut back, aligning the template to responsible-gambling research needs, not just marketing analytics
  • Built-in consent step and closing debrief message support ethical handling of a sensitive-behavior (gambling/spend) survey
  • Automated per-response quality scoring and auto-generated reporting mean the wagering/promo data and the AI-probed qualitative context can be analyzed without manual transcript review
