I answered surveys in Poll Cash and found that the app pays quite poorly, and you only get gift cards. I never reached the Gold level, because it takes too long. I would not recommend it to my friends or anyone else.
Not worth your time: very low rewards, gift cards only
Android-only survey app. A $10 Amazon gift card needs 100,000 coins, and there are no cash rewards.

The short answer
Poll Cash is a survey app that rewards you with coins for completing surveys from partner providers. In my opinion, it is not an app worth your time.
The rewards are very low, and it does not offer cash rewards, just gift cards. A $10 Amazon gift card needs at least 100,000 coins. It is Android only, and your account is locked to your phone: if you uninstall the app or get a new phone, you lose your earnings.
- A decent number of surveys available
- Easy to use, with no annoying pop-up ads
- Membership levels that raise your coins per survey
- Offers very low rewards
- Does not offer cash rewards, only gift cards
- The referral program only opens at the Silver level
- You cannot use the same account on several devices
- Android only
My experience with Poll Cash
I installed Poll Cash on Android and answered surveys to see how it works and how fast you level up. I found the app relatively easy to use, and I did not see any annoying pop-up ads, which I think is a good sign. This is what I did myself, and what I did not test.

Is Poll Cash legit and safe?
Poll Cash gives you coins for the surveys you complete. But in my opinion, the app is not worth your time. Here is what you should know.
- Very low rewards
Most surveys pay around 1,000 to 3,000 coins, and a $10 Amazon gift card needs at least 100,000 coins. It takes a long time to earn enough for a gift card.
- Your account is locked to your phone
The app registers you automatically, without login details. If you uninstall the app or get a new phone, you lose all your earnings.
- Only use it in a supported region
Poll Cash is for North America, Western Europe, Singapore and Australia. You may be able to use it elsewhere, but your account can then get suspended instantly.
- No cash rewards
You can only redeem gift cards, and which ones depend on your country.
My takeIn my opinion, Poll Cash is not an app worth your time. The main reason why I say this is that it offers very low rewards. You’ll have to spend a lot of time answering a lot of surveys just to earn a decent amount. Plus, it doesn’t offer cash rewards, just gift cards.
How you earn on Poll Cash
There are 2 ways to earn. Surveys are the main one. Tap one to read more.
Paid surveys1,000–3,000 coins
Poll Cash has no surveys of its own. In the poll section, you pick a survey provider and set up your profile there the first time. Then you see all the surveys available.
Each survey starts with qualifying questions. If you do not qualify, move on to the next one. There is a decent number of surveys, but most pay only around 1,000 to 3,000 coins.
Poll Cash has three membership levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold. You level up by answering surveys, and a higher level gives you more coins per survey. But the base rate is so low that the increase stays very small.
Referral program10% commission
This opens when you reach the Silver level. Share your invite link, and when someone installs the app through it, you get a 10% commission every time they earn. I think you must make sure the people you invite are really interested in earning from this app. Personally, I would not recommend this app to my friends.
How much can you make?
It mostly depends on how many surveys you complete, and you will not always qualify. I would say the app pays quite poorly: most surveys reward around 1,000 to 3,000 coins, while a $10 Amazon gift card needs at least 100,000 coins. I find it quite shocking how small the reward is.
In my opinion, the membership levels do not increase your earnings significantly, because the base reward rate is so low. I never reached Gold, because it takes quite a bit of time, and I did not want to waste any more time with this app. I would say the earning potential of Poll Cash is very low.
Rewards and minimums
| Reward | Coins needed |
|---|---|
| $10 Amazon gift card | At least 100,000 coins |
| Other gift cards | Depends on the gift card |
When you open the Redeem section for the first time, you choose your country. Then you see the gift cards you can redeem. Poll Cash does not offer cash rewards. If you want cash, I suggest you check out the best sites that pay via PayPal.
