Frequently Asked Questions

What is the methodology behind Global Pulse?

Global Pulse leverages a robust hybrid methodology combining CATI (Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviewing) and highly vetted online panels across all 16 tracked nations. We strictly weight our data to census demographics (age, gender, education, and region) to ensure accurate, representative national samples with a margin of error of ±2-3%.

How frequently is the data updated?

Data collection runs continuously. We aggregate, weight, and publish the finalized dataset on the 1st of every month. Advanced and Apex subscribers receive instant notifications when the interactive dashboard is updated.

How do Strategic Advisory Calls work?

Advisory call allowances depend on your Global Pulse tier:

  • Access: Sessions can be purchased individually as an add-on.
  • Advanced: Includes 1 free Strategic Advisory Call per month.
  • Apex: Includes 2 free Strategic Advisory Calls per month.

All calls can be booked directly through your Help & Advisory Center.

Can I cancel or switch my plan at any time?

Yes. You can upgrade or cancel your subscription directly with your account representative. If you upgrade, we will prorate the cost difference. If you cancel, you will retain full access to your dashboard until the end of your current annual billing cycle. Please note that we do not offer refunds for any partial years or unused time.

How does the API access work?

Advanced and Apex users are provided with a dedicated API key and documentation. The REST API allows you to pull the latest JSON endpoints directly into your internal BI tools (like Tableau or PowerBI), intranets, or custom campaign applications in real-time as soon as a new month's data is verified.
