Smart Travel Podcast Listener Survey 2026

Thank you for participating in our 2026 listener survey! This year's survey takes about 5 minutes to complete (slightly longer if you answer the optional questions) and is much shorter than last year's. Your answers directly shape what we make next year.

You may choose to complete the survey anonymously. However, to enter the NerdWallet’s Smart Travel Podcast Sweepstakes for a chance to win one of two (2) prizes (limit one prize per person), you must submit the survey and provide your first and last name and email address.

Two (2) prize winners will each receive one (1) $250 Amazon gift card.

The Sweepstakes period is from August 27, 2026, to September 30, 2026. Limit one (1) entry per person. No purchase necessary to enter or win. Odds of winning will be determined by the number of eligible entries received. Read the Official Rules for more details.
