Top 6 Survey Sites – Make Money Online

Surveys are the easiest way to make a little extra money each month online. They are simple, convenient and require no commitment. Every month I make around £50 from completing surveys for around 2 hours a week. Obviously the more time you can commit, the more you can potentially make.

I have tried A LOT of different sites and these are my favourite six…

#6 Branded Surveys

This site is one of the worse ones for time to payment ratio BUT some of the most lucrative studies I have participated in have come from this. We’re talking getting paid £30 to send a wee sample to Canada, £50 to watch and review two episodes of a new tv show and £90 for answering two question each week for a month.

Therefore, taking the bad paying surveys is sometimes worth it for the chance to score a place on the big ones that come up! The minimum cash out is 1000 points which equates to $10.

#5 Swagbucks

Swagbucks is another site that I wouldn’t recommend just for the surveys but I would recommend the site as a whole entity. Sometimes you will get a great survey but often times you will be screened out – this is so demoralising!

However, Swagbucks pays you to complete online tasks, play games, download apps, answer trivia questions and cashback for shopping on certain sites. Doing these things makes Swagbucks an easy site to make money on.

You are payed points when you complete the task and these points can be redeemed for a variety of gift cards, including PayPal, M&S and Tesco.

#4 Opinion Outpost

The surveys on Opinion Outpost are quick, well paid and interesting. I love this site especially because the cash out minimum is very low (£5). One downside to Opinion Outpost is screening out and not qualifying for their surveys. Some days this is more a problem than others, but it can be a pain to have to answer the same personal questions over and over again.

#3 Lifepoints

Lifepoints is a great survey site! The surveys are well paid, quick and the screen out rates are low. You earn points for each surveys and then redeemed them for vouchers. The minimum cash out is £3 but for cash (a PayPal voucher) it’s £5. This threshold can be reached very very quickly, however the vouchers take at least a week to actually reach you.

#2 YouGov

I only found this site last week and I have already make over £11 for less than an hours effort. The surveys are interesting, fast and have a good pay rate. But my favourite thing about this site is getting paid to share my watching history (e.g. on Netflix, YouTube, Disney+ etc.).

However, the minimum cash out is £50 which means most people will give up or forget about it before they reach the threshold. And the surveys are rare – like one every two days rare.

#1 Prolific

Prolific is hands down my FAVOURITE survey site!! The surveys on this site are mostly academic studies. This means they are very interesting and completely different to your run of the mill personal questions. Plus, they pay minimum £7 an hour and you are pre-screened before getting a study offer so its very rare to be screened out.

The only downside to Prolific is the amount of studies. Sometimes it can go a few days with no offers then on some days you get inundated with studies.
