Happy Surveys App Review – Legit or Scam? (Inside Look)

Happy Surveys Rating


Happy Surveys, in my opinion, simply doesn’t offer many reasons for you to use it. For a GPT app, it is pretty limited in terms of earning opportunities offered. It also doesn’t help that it doesn’t pay that well.

Happy Surveys is an app that claims you can earn money by taking paid surveys and that you can earn up to $15 per survey.

Sounds simple enough, right?

But is Happy Surveys app legit and really a high-paying survey app?

It is very important to know this before you join so you do it with the right expectations.

And this is where this Happy Surveys app review comes in. It will give you a detailed inside look at what the app has to offer so you will know exactly what to expect before you even install it.

Then, you can decide if this is an app worth using or not. So, let’s go ahead and get this review rolling.

What is Happy Surveys, and what does it offer?

Happy Surveys is a Get-Paid-To (GPT) app that will reward you for answering surveys and doing other tasks. It is indeed a legit app since you will really get paid to work using the earning opportunities it offers.

And speaking of earning opportunities, we have to first take a look at the ways you can earn from this app so you can understand how it works. By doing so, you can also get an idea of how well you can earn from it.

I have therefore made a video that gives you an inside look and shows exactly how you can earn from Happy Surveys app. You can also read all the details below the video.

Option 1 – Paid surveys

As mentioned earlier, one way to earn from Happy Surveys is by answering their paid surveys. If you’ve been a member of survey sites or apps before, then you will be very familiar with this opportunity. But if you haven’t yet, let me explain how it works.

One way to earn from Happy Surveys is to answer paid surveys.

First of all, to access their paid surveys, just log in to the app and press the house icon at the lower part of the app. This will also be the default landing page of the app. Then, press the “Surveys” section. You will then see something similar to the photo shown above.

Now, Happy Surveys doesn’t offer its own paid surveys. Instead, it partners with other survey providers to provide its members with survey opportunities.

To start answering a survey, just press any survey offer available. It will then take you to a mobile browser tab where you will have to answer a set of qualifying questions. Once you are done with the qualifying questions, you will be notified if there is an available survey for you.

If there isn’t, then you’ll just have to move on to the next survey offer. But if there is, you’ll get to answer the survey, and once you are done, you will receive the reward promised.

Option 2 – Tasks

Another way to earn from Happy Surveys is to work on their paid tasks. In other GPT sites, this is called paid offers. The idea is that you complete the task to earn the rewards.

tasks on happy surveys
You can also complete tasks to earn.

Most of the tasks available when I was doing my testing required me to play a mobile game. There were also a few tasks that asked me to register on a website.

To start working on a task, just press the one you are interested in. Then, it will show you what you need to do to complete it. For game tasks, you will usually have to reach a certain level before you earn.

Make sure you’ve understood what the task is asking you to do before you start working on it. Because if you miss even one requirement, you will not be able to complete the task, and you will not get the reward. So, make it a habit to read and understand the instructions first before you start working.

Once the task is completed, you will receive a certain number of credits which will be deposited into your Happy Surveys account.

Option 3 – Daily rewards

Every day, you are entitled to claim free rewards. All you have to do is to go to the free rewards section of the app. It can be found in the Surveys section (refer to the photo below).

happy surveys daily rewards
You can collect free rewards by watching video ads.

To claim the reward, just press the “Free Daily Rewards” offer. Then, a video ad will pop up. Wait for it to finish and close it. After you’ve closed the ad, you will see a notification that you’ve earned 2 credits.

You can do this up to 10 times, and once you reach the cap, you won’t earn the free reward anymore. You will have to wait until the next day to do it again. It’s a pretty easy way to earn additional rewards, but the rewards are quite low.

Nevertheless, make sure to include it in your daily routine if you decide to use the app after reading this review so you can maximize your earnings.

Option 4 – Referral program

Lastly, you can earn referral rewards by inviting other people to download and use the app. This is called a referral program.

You can invite other people to use the app to earn referral rewards.

To invite a person, you just have to share your invite code with them or send it via SMS, email, or WhatsApp. Then, remind them to input the code after they’ve downloaded and installed the app. Once they’ve done that, they will become your referral.

However, before you receive your reward, they will first have to complete two surveys.

When that happens, you will receive 200 credits. The reward isn’t that great, but the condition to receive it isn’t very hard to meet. So, it’s still a good way to earn extra rewards, in my opinion.

How do you get paid?

For every survey or task you complete, you will receive a certain number of credits. It will show up in your Happy Surveys account balance. But what can you do with the credits you’ve earned?

happy surveys payment options
You can withdraw your earnings via PayPal once you've earned at least 10,000 credits.

Well, Happy Surveys will let you convert all your credits to cash via PayPal or Bitcoin. The minimum amount you can withdraw is $10, which is a relatively low payout threshold.

The number of credits required to withdraw $10 to your PayPal account is 10,000. You can also choose to save your credits and withdraw them later since you can make $10, $20, or $50 withdrawals.

The payout threshold for Bitcoin is the same.

Overall, the payment system is pretty easy, and the payout threshold is relatively low. But that doesn’t entirely mean you can withdraw your earnings quickly (I will explain in the next section why this is so).

Now, if you are looking for sites and apps that will allow you to withdraw your earnings quickly, I would recommend you check out the fastest paying sites instead.

How much money can you make?

The amount of money you can earn from Happy Surveys will depend on how actively you are using the app. Another factor is how well Happy Surveys pays. In this regard, I would say Happy Surveys doesn’t pay that well.

Most of the surveys you can answer will only allow you to earn around 50 to 1000 credits. That will be equivalent to $0.05 to $1, which is quite low.

They do write on their website that you can earn up to $15 per survey, and that might be possible at times. BUT you have to be very lucky to find a survey that pays this much.

And it works with the same survey partners as many of the top survey apps, so it does not really offer anything special, in my opinion.

The tasks pay better, though. However, the time it takes to complete a task that offers that high a reward is quite significant. So, the time-to-money ratio of Happy Surveys is still not that good.

So, while Happy Surveys does have a relatively low payout threshold, it will still take some time before you can withdraw your earnings because of the low rewards it offers. That’s why I would say the earning potential of this app isn’t that good.

Can you use it on a desktop?

Happy Surveys is a mobile-only platform. So, you will really need a mobile device to earn from it. It doesn’t have a web version as some other GPT apps do.

happy surveys app
You can download the Happy Surveys app from the Android or iOS app stores.

As for their app, it is available for both Android and iOS devices. So you shouldn’t encounter any compatibility issues.

The app is very easy to use, so you’ll get used to how to use it pretty quickly. It’s also not spammy like some other apps because apart from the video ads you have to watch with their daily rewards, you won’t encounter any other pop-up ads so that makes the overall user experience a bit better.

Who can join Happy Surveys?

Happy Surveys is available globally. So, anybody can download and use it. You just have to have a PayPal account to get paid.

You don’t have to go through a registration process as most other GPT apps have. Once you’ve downloaded and installed the app, when you open it, you can log in to the app right away.

The one downside of this kind of system is that your account will be bound to the device you are using. So, you can’t transfer your account to another device. If your mobile device gets fried, you will lose all your earnings. That’s why I would suggest you withdraw your earnings immediately (when you reach the threshold, of course).

Otherwise, you risk losing all your earnings if something were to happen to your mobile device or if you uninstall the app. It’s not the most ideal setup, in my opinion.

Can you get support?

If you have any questions about the app or your account, you can first check out their FAQ page. It discusses some of the basic topics you need to know about the app. It’s not the most comprehensive FAQ page, but it will do, in my opinion.

Plus, if you can’t find the answers you are looking for, you can still get in touch with their support team by emailing them at support@happysurveys.co.

Overall, I would say they have a decent support system in place for their members since they offer a way for you to contact their support team. But I do wish they would work on their FAQ page more and provide more useful information.

Final Verdict

Happy Surveys is a legit GPT app that will pay you for answering surveys and doing tasks. It certainly has its advantages, but it also has a few disadvantages you need to weigh before you make your decision.

To wrap things up, let’s finish this review by summing up its pros and cons so you can get an overview of what the app has to offer. That way, you can decide if it is really an app you should use or not.

pros

Pros:

  • Available globally
  • Pays in cash or Bitcoin
cons

Cons:

  • Limited earning opportunities offered
  • Fairly low rewards
  • Your account is tied to only one device

Happy Surveys, in my opinion, simply doesn’t offer many reasons for you to use it. For a GPT app, it is pretty limited in terms of earning opportunities offered. It also doesn’t help that it doesn’t pay that well.

Plus, your account will be tied to the device you’ve installed it to. So, if something happens to your device or you’ve uninstalled the app, you will lose all your earnings. This, in my opinion, simply won’t do for an app like this. You should always have the ability to use your account on other devices.

That’s why I don’t really recommend you use this app. You are better off joining other sites and apps that have better opportunities than Happy Surveys.

And speaking of other sites and apps, I would recommend you check out the top survey and GPT sites in your country instead. The sites/apps on this list all have good earning potential, and you will be able to use the same account on different devices.
