There are probably 150+ claimed paid survey sites. From all of those only a small part are actually cash payments. The rest of them mostly give out sweepstake entries for prizes hardly anyone wins. Now out of that small part that actually pay, only a small handful you can depend on for steady cash payments. It took me many months of testing out the many sites and filtering out the scam ones. One of the main reasons I started this site is to share my information so you do not have to try all those other sites and save time to join the worthwhile paid survey sites. I only recommend sites which I actually got paid cash not any with prizes or sweepstakes. I'm in process of evaluating a few other sites and as soon as I get positive results, I will post them here.

Another important note is these sites here are all free to join. Beware of claimed to be survey sites which require payments in advance and promising $50+ surveys. These sites are usually not the actual survey companies. They are people who are getting paid to promote paid membership websites. Be sure to never pay any fees to become a member of a survey site. A real legitimate paid survey site would never charge you a fee.




On the top of the list has to be OpinionOutpost (see above link). This top notch site will send surveys to your email account depending on the responses to the profiles you are asked to fill out. The more complete and up to date your profiles are, the more surveys you can receive. Surveys range from $2 to $5 depending on the length and most people receive about 1-2 a week depnding on who they are targeting that particular week time. Unlike some others, Opinion Outpost has great customer service and is honest with integrity. Definitely one of a kind. As soon as you collect at least $5 in your account, you can request a check and it will be mailed to your home. You can view their certified TRUSTe Validated Privacy Statement here



Next paid site is SurveySavvy. They may only send out 1 to 2 per month but they are worth the wait since they are a high quality survey site. They are certified by BBB (The Better Business Bureau), view BBB Accredited seal here.



The next one is Cash crate. Although their surveys are $0.80, the advantage here is they are daily and you can do them daily which adds up to about $20-$24/mo. This is useful since you only do them when you have spare time. They have another section to make money with offers but I normally do not do those. I do about 1/2 to 3/4 of the surveys which comes too about $17/mo. If you are in the USA it is much easier to qualify for the surveys. They also pay via cheque once you reach the $10 payout. You can easily sign up by clicking on link below here.:




A few survey tips:

  • Once you receive a survey invitation, try to do it right away since some close once they have the volume needed.

  • When completng your profiles, try not to hold back information like choosing the "Not sure" "Don't know" etc.

  • Do not use the browser's "forward" or "back" buttons since this will interfere with the survey causing you not to complete it.


Updates coming soon:

- Will be posting some helpful tips on successfully completing paid surveys etc.. (almost done see above)

- More paid survey listings to be added (I only add the worthwhile ones). Under construction

- Improving the looks of this website to make it easier to read through etc. (Ongoing)


Thanks for stopping by and have great day.
