When you want to make money by taking paid surveys and sharing your opinion, you do not want to wait months to get your rewards.
On some survey sites, it takes a very long time to reach the payout threshold and be able to get your money.
But luckily, there are also many survey sites with a low or no minimum payout limit, which means you can get paid very quickly (and in some cases instantly).
In this article, you will find the best quick-paying survey sites with a low payout threshold, so you can be sure to get your money fast.
All of them are legit and actually do pay – I know, as I have tested all of them thoroughly and been paid by all of them myself.

Why a low or no minimum payout is important!
Taking surveys can be a great way to make some extra cash on the side. But on some sites, you have to work really hard to get to the payout threshold, or they simply do not offer many opportunities, so it will take you forever to be able to get paid.
This is obviously very annoying – when we take paid surveys, it can, of course, be because we want to have our opinions heard and be able to give feedback, which is an important aspect of surveys.
But at the same time, many of us who take paid surveys also like to earn extra cash, and we do not want to wait months to cash out.
When it takes too long to get to a payout threshold, it is difficult to stay motivated.
Also, the smaller the payout limit is, the quicker you can confirm that you actually can get paid – if you have never joined paid survey sites before, this might be a concern to you, and you want to make sure it is actually possible before spending too much time.
So, in general, it is a great way to stay motivated when we often see a little extra money coming into our account and get paid fast.
Further, in my experience, the survey sites with a low minimum payout are often also the best – they know they have a lot to offer and are not trying to keep people locked for months before paying out.
They will let you take your money out very quickly, and then they also know you will probably keep taking surveys and earn more money, as you can see, it works.
So, for all these reasons, the payout threshold is, in my opinion, important on survey sites – you might have other reasons, and if that is the case, it would be great to hear about them in a comment below the article.
What is a low payout threshold?
How do you define a low payout threshold?
This can definitely vary from person to person. That is why I wanted to make it clear how I have defined a low payout threshold in the list below and what I have taken into consideration when choosing the sites that belong on the list.
I have taken into consideration not only the actual amount you have to earn to cash out, but some survey sites have a very low payout threshold, or even no minimum payout limit, or pay instantly. But if they do not offer many opportunities, it might still not be fast to get your money.
I have considered this, and the sites on the list are platforms with a good amount of opportunities that not only have a low payout minimum but also offer many opportunities that you will be able to cash out quickly.
Many of the sites even offer several ways you can earn, and not only paid surveys – these are called get-paid-to (GPT) sites, as you can get paid for many different small online tasks.
By using some of these other earning methods, you will, in many cases, be able to earn more and get paid faster, so great to make sure to use some of the other earning methods as well.
Some people are mostly interested in survey sites with no minimum payout, as that means you can get paid immediately. However, there is often some kind of threshold. On some sites, it is as low as $1 (or lower), so in my opinion, that is basically the same as not having a minimum payout.
In general, on the list below, you will find survey sites that will make it possible for you to reach the payout threshold within a few days in many cases, and in some cases, within a few hours.
So the limit is between $0-$10. The ones with the lowest minimum are, however, not necessarily placed the highest on the list – as mentioned, I have also taken the total amount of opportunities and the usability of the site into consideration.
38 quick-paying survey sites with low minimum payout
The sites on the list below are not only survey sites with a low minimum payout, but they are also sites that make it easy for you to get to the payout threshold, as they have a good number of opportunities.
The exact opportunities on each site can vary by country, but overall, these are the survey sites that will pay you the fastest. To increase your chances of earning, it is a good idea to join several sites, as they all have different offers.
This list will regularly be updated as I test new sites, so make sure to bookmark it and check for new opportunities once in a while.

You can read my full Paidwork review here to learn all about it.
It took 5 days to get paid from Swagbucks via PayPal. I strongly suggest removing them from the top of this list! Prime Opinion should be #1 because I earned $5 with 6 surveys in less than 30 minutes and the money was in my PayPal immediately.
I appreciate all the work you put into creating these lists and individual reviews. You have saved me so much time that would have been wasted on bogus apps. Thank you so much!!!
I agree Prime Opinion deserves a spot. I just forgot to update this list since I tested Prime Opinion. But I have now updated the list and added it. Thanks for sharing your experiences and opinion.
Thanks for sharing this information. I will try to look which ones are applicable to my country Philippines.

Please which of them can I download that will require me to use Opay, palmpay, Nigerian bank app to withdraw?
I do not think any of the platforms on the list above offer that.
Alright thanks
I’m a Nigerian, I use some of the sites that offers payment with crypto and withdraw them to crypto exchange them swap to naira and then to my Nigeria bank
Hi Mikael,
I like the layout of your site. Can I ask what platform you use? Thank you
I use WordPress.
I know you said you didn’t have the best of luck with qmee. I’m not sure when it was or if being in a different country makes any difference. I’m in us.. I started it and drove myself half crazy trying to figure it out. Two bits of advice, first make sure you fill out your profile 100%, when answering the survey questions, they’re compared to your profile and if it doesn’t match, it’s declined. The second one is if you really want to earn money at the top is a streak monitor if you keep it full, this can be done by surveys or just by answering the poll question, takes half a second, your earnings are multiplied based on the streak, I personally used it for 14 months and I am almost to 1700 usd. I’d also add if you get declined go to the bottom of the page and report it, a lot of times, they will give some kind of incentive usually half of the original amount. Thanks hope it helps.
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
I use qmee. It is one of the more reliable platforms. I’ve earned $300 Audi this year
Pls how do I get a PayPal account here in Nigeria
You cannot. You have to use other payout options instead.
Which one can u earn the most money from in the shortest amount of time? I would like to get the most money and the shortest time to do the surveys and such. Which one would u consider if u wanted to earn some extra money for Christmas presents?
I explain all about the earning opportunities on the list above. In my opinion, the best are the ones at the top of the list but a lot of it depends on the country you live in.
Which one of these sites paid out of the *Cash app* because I used to have PayPal account until my ex-wife ruined the entire PayPal account for me by trying to cash in fake-ass unemployment checks and trying to blame me for the entire thing but other than that I can not use the PayPal nor could I even make a new account but can I receive the payout through the Cash App account for myself
As far as I know, none of them pay out to Cash App. But they offer many other great payout options. You can find sites that offer bank transfer, Payoneer, Skrill, crypto, and more so there are plenty of options even if you cannot get a PayPal account again.
Definitely OneDayRewards, you can cashout to Cashapp and the minimum withdrawal is $1. It’s just like the rest of these sites. Do surveys, complete offers watch videos, etc. You can join here: https://onedayrewards.com/members/register.php?refid=28239

Can I get for Nigeria please? I will appreciate, thanks a lot
You can check this list for NG.
i didnt see these 2 survey sites on your list! but a must to try!
i find erewards is great, gift cards only but using them for 15 years!
only they do have a problem if your survey freezes and you cant finish it!
no matter if your doing a long survey,lets say 10 mins and you cant finish it just email them with the survey
you couldnt finish,they will look up how much time you put in it…most of the
time they give you 100% credit but no lower than 50% credit…world wide!
.
paidviewpoint.com its my favorite,
at least 10 cents for short surveys but pays more depending how fast you reply to their emails, 10 cents min. doesnt sound like much but it adds up very fast, just hit $15.00 and CASH is put in your paypal account! been with them for 3 years..never ever i had a tech. problem…easy platform, many countries are ok!
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
I have a full review of PaidViewpoint here. It is a great survey site in some countries, but the reason it is not on this specific list you are commenting on is that this is a list of sites with a low payout threshold where it is fast to earn, and PaidViewpoint can take some patience.
As far the other site you mention, it definitely does not deserve a spot on the list, in my opinion. There are so many better survey sites than that, and that is why it is not on the list.
Hello ,Thanks for all your sharing
I need site that pay razer gift cards custom amount or full
I do not know any sites that offer that.
Am in Tanzania which is better to me
You can check out the best international sites here. They are the best for you.
I’ve tried most of the ones on this list, and I must say most of these on this list are time consuming and ask repetitive questions often personal. Too invasive for me. The only one I agree with is the one that really should be at the top of your list is Prolific. Where I’m located the threshold is 5 dollars, sometimes I get to 5 dollars so fast that I can’t cash out until the next 24 hours. Try Prolific if you’re really serious.
Thanks for sharing your experiences. How many surveys and what type of surveys you will get depends a lot on your profile and the country you live in. For example, for some, Prolific is not a very good site as you more or less never get a survey there and others get many there. So it will vary from person to person but the sites on this list are all sites I have good experiences with myself and been paid by.

Hello Mikael
Regardless location, which survey site pays the best? and will give you good value for time spent thanks.
I cannot disregard the location as that is very important to know to say which sites are the best. So to give proper advice, you need to tell me your country.
I noticed you have not reviewed Offer Nation yet. It is a lot like Superpay.me. You can cash out with $1 via PayPal. I use it all the time. It is my favorite! Check it out and let me know what you think!
I actually have a review of OfferNation you can check out to see what I think about it. You are right that it is a lot like Superpayme. That is also why it is not on this list because in my experience and opinion there is no need to join both of them as they offer more or less the same and are owned by the same company.
Ok thank you!
you are welcome
Hi, thanks for your articles. Mi question is if some of this sites are available for Argentina. Thanks!
Yes, many of them are available in Argentina. From the list above I would, for example, suggest Toluna, PrizeRebel, ySense, Surveytime, and GrabPoints.
i want same site like surveytime.io
The closest you get is Superpayme because it also has such a low payout threshold you can get paid more or less right away. But all the sites on the list above makes it possible to earn enough for a payout very quickly.
not swure whats going on, it says surveytime is global but it does not let you use an australian number so you can get paid after doing a survey
It usually definitely is available in Australia. But I have heard a lot of people having problems with it recently. I am trying to get in touch with them to get an update an see what is going on. In the meantime, you can check out this list with the best survey sites in Australia where you can find plenty of great alternatives.
Please can u help me with a survey sit that I can earn money for real I will be grateful please?
all the sites above are great but which ones are the best depends on the country you live in. Where do you live?
hi Mikael I am/was a member of a site called quick pay survey’s are there any survey sites like that one with the same set up? can u check it over to see what I mean and let me know if there are sites like that one because I really like survey sites set up like that one.
Hi Jesse,
I actually have a whole review of Quick Pay Survey – In my opinion, it does not offer as good options as many other sites and the rewards are mostly lower than on other sites for the same surveys.
If you tell me what country you are live in, I will be happy to give you some suggestion for the best sites.
I live in the united states
There are really a lot of great sites there. You can check out this list of the best US sites.
They will give you plenty of opportunities. And just ask if you have questions about any of the sites.
thanx again Mikael.
you are welcome.
Hi mikael pz help great survey sites which work in Uganda Africa
It is not the easiest country to find sites in. But you can check out this list of worldwide sites – you can join all of these from Uganda.
hi,mikael sorry to bother you again but I have a question my partner who lives in the same home as me wants to do survey’s as well on the same sites as I am signed up for is he allowed to sign up for the same sites as me under his name but with same address and ip address,is this allowed
Great you ask. This really depends on the survey sites. Some will happily accept more members from the same household and others are strictly against this and will ban you if you do.
So you would need to check on the specific sites. Usually, you can find that information in their FAQ section or in their terms.
Definitely important to check before both if you sign up so great you asked.
thanx that’s why I asked because I found a site called feature points which saids in its FAQ that 5 accounts are allowed in the same household but different users not the same user can have 5 accounts, I hope this is correct but to be sure have you or would u check it out and let me know for sure,thanx
I just checked and their terms clearly say several people in the same household can use it. And FeaturePoints is a very good site, in my experience, and one I have used a lot myself and I have been paid by it many times also. That is also why it is on the list above.
If you have any doubts about their terms at all, you can also contact their support so you have their word for it as that is the most important.
hi,mikael I am looking for sites that are set up like superpay me is set up I want other sites that are the same set up or similar to super pay me is,any suggestions.
You can check out this list of sites similar to Superpay.me.
Hope that helps.
thanx
you are welcome
Hello Mikael! I’m from Indonesia. Which survey site that best for indonesian to join in..? Thank you. God bless you..
You can check out a list of the best sites in Indonesia here.
I have a bussiness proposal for you.I need full access lifepoints account.i will give you 5$ paypal per verified lifepointspanel account
I do not quite understand exactly what you are looking for and what you are suggesting?
Hi Mikael. I hope you might be able to help me. I’m almost ready to give up. I’m semi retired as an accountant and wanted to earn extra money. The sites I tried have been a waste of time. They all sounded good because I need one that pays fast and low minimum payment because my paypal account is not verified.I’m in a nursing home so I don’t own a car or pay electric bills. I’m almost 70 years old now. Do you have any suggestions?
Hi Dave,
Which sites are the best depends on the country you live in?
But overall, you need to be aware that survey and GPT sites are not meant to make a lot of money but just a bit of extra on the side for sharing your opinion. The Get Paid To sites also offer several other ways to earn which can be a great way to increase earnings but it is still not a way to make a full-time income or anything like that. So it is important to do it with the right expectations.
But if you let me know what country you live in, I will be happy to give a few suggestions. The ones on the list above are the ones that, in general, pay out the fastest though.
Forgot to mention I’m in the United States. Also I’m only looking for extra money not fulltime because I’m on social security and medicare. Appreciate any ideas for sites that are not looking for any expertise. Thanks
The US has quite a lot of opportunities. I have a whole list of the best survey sites in the US you can check out here.
But I will also be honest and say that it can take a bit more patience to find the surveys you qualify for when you are 65+. So make sure to also check some of the other earning methods many of them have.
Hope this helps.
I’ll give it a try. You’re probably right about the age factor. Thanks
Hope you will enjoy it. And feel free to keep me updated about how it goes.
hiMikael,I am looking for good survey sites to earn some extra cash and I came across this list and I like it but I have one concern. could I become a member of more then one of these survey sites?
Hi Jesse,
Yes, you can become a member of more than one. In fact, you can become a member of as many as you like. It is actually great being a member of more as they often offer different surveys, so when you are a member of more, you get access to more surveys.
thank you that’s great to hear.
you are welcome Jesse.
Any tips on how to build a rhythm for taking surveys so you can maximize the number of surveys you can do in one day? Without going nuts and sitting behind your computer all day long.
Hi Ben,
It really depends on what else your schedule is. But it can be great to have a look and check several of the sites you are a member of in the morning and see which ones have opportunities there.
Then during the day, it can be great to check out some options when you have a bit of time once in a while. That is what the sites that have apps or are mobile-friendly are great for because you can quickly check it on the go, while waiting in line, etc.
Then if you have the time, it can also be good to check some of the sites again in the evening as they regularly get new opportunities.
Some sites will also send you invites when they have new surveys so also good to check your emails regularly.
Hope this helps.
how about qumee ,I have tried this site ,are a good amount of surveys and no minimum payout and pays in seconds!!
Thank you for the suggestion Mary. I actually just recently did a review of Qmee. I just have not had the time to update this list yet, but it is on the list of sites to add next time I update it.
Thanks for making me aware.
Mikael
Hello Mikael i have a question and could use some help about the Superpay.me website. so i joined and made over $1 and cashed out to make sure it was legit and good and got my money rather quick and easy to my paypal.
I then grinded a bunch of surveys and made little over $24 and decided to cashout and got a Members- Trouble Ticket that said OFFER VERIFICATION
Hi,
Thank you for contacting us.
We need to verify the offers you have completed with our advertisers who supply the offers.
Usually this takes between 30 and 60 days depending on how quickly they respond to our enquiries.
Please note that while this is being carried out, you will not be able to use your account to take part in other surveys or offers.
Please contact us again in 30 days and we will hopefully be able to provide an update.
So do i just wait 30-60 days now then i’ll be able to get my money? will i have to wait this long all the time if i would like to save and withdraw $20+ or is this just a one time wait time to. since i’m a new member and next times will be within 24 hours to get money? if can offer any help/advice would be great! thank you 🙂
Hi Derek.
I am not sure why it takes them so long to verify this time. I have never tried anything like that. The first time I had to verify on Superpay.me and wait a bit longer but not that long. Now I get paid within a few hours after requesting a payout.
So usually you do not have to wait like this. Not sure if it is because of the particular offers and some extra verification they need to make. Superpay.me is quite strict with security.
Their support is usually pretty good though, so you can also write to them and ask.
Hope this helps and feel free to keep me updated about how it goes.
Mikael
Hi try opinion outpost reach 50 points and get £2.50 payout of can save as many points as you want payout takes 24 hours
Hi Michelle,
Yes, Opinion Outpost is also quick at paying out. It is actually on my list of sites to add to this list next time I update it.
Thanks for your suggestion.
Mikael
just keeping ya updated it all went through and i got paid and it’s working great now! Superpay.me have been updating their website with a new look too : )
Thank you very much for the update Derek. Great to hear everything went through.
Mikael
hello, since ur are new let me tell u superpay.me is %100 legit site at first it takes time to verify ur account but after that u can get ur payments instantly. i just recieved a payment today
Great to hear you got paid by Superpay.me. Thanks for sharing.
Also, Curious Cat. The minimum cash out is 100 points which equals $1.27 (In US). However, like qmee, it cashes out instantly to paypal
Thanks for the suggestion Rebekah. I will look into that.
Thanks,
Mikael
Hey there,
I have been doing lots of surveys on ClixSense, and I thought it would be really wise to try out new platforms to see what is out there.
I am going to give Swagbucks and PrizeRebel a try and see how they are going to help me. Thanks a lot for your list. It has really saved my time. 🙂
Glad to hear Dave.
I am sure you will love Swagbucks and PrizeRebel, as they are both great sites.
All the best,
Mikael
Hello Dave, since you’ve got experience on these paid surveys, can you be so nice to get in touch, I’m just starting and most things are a little bit confusing
Hi Williams,
If you have any questions I will be more than happy to try and help you out. So just ask and I will do my best to answer.
Mikael
Thanks for these great survey sites with low payouts. I’ve heard of a few of them like swagbucks and think it might be a great way to earn some extra cash — but I don’t see it being anything life changing.
Have you tried any of these sites yourself? If so which ones did you enjoy the most?
Hi Michael,
Surveys definitely can make some nice extra cash, but you are very right that paid surveys is not a way to become rich.
And yes I have tried the sites myself – I always make sure to test survey sites whenever they are available in my country.
The first 4 on the list (Swagbucks, PrizeRebel, Toluna, ClixSense) are in my opinion really great options, but depending in the country you live in, there are also sites that are just as good.
All the best,
Mikael
Ive only been with q mee a week and already made 40 something dollars. Love it
That is great to hear Mary. Thanks for sharing.
A great site on top genuine surveys. I am in such a country where survey sites doesn’t pay much commission. Your explanation on the sites was great. And people like me might get confused seeing so many genuine sites all together. Clicxsense is also a PTC site. Your site is great and keep it up.
Thanks for your feedback Saurav.
ClixSense used to be a PTC site as well, but it is not anymore. They removed that option a while back and it is now mainly a survey site – in my opinion it has made it better, as I am not a big fan of PTC, as it pays so little to click those ads.
All the best,
Mikael
Hi Mikael. You make some tremendous points of what truly does motivate people to continue participating in survey ventures. That is not only that each survey is interesting and well-written, but more importantly having the opportunity to cash out when the particular site itself has a no-to-low minimum threshold level regarding the money that had been earned.
I still say that the one disadvantage of participating in surveys as a way to make money is that invariably, almost all sites, (except for 2 that I am aware of) have a disqualification process based on an individual fitting the intended demographic of a particular survey. Of course not qualifying results in the panelist earning nothing, and with that coming not one inch closer to meeting the minimum threshold that would allow him/her to claim money that had been earned.
Swag Bucks, in my opinion does remain perhaps the best survey site if you take into consideration the low threshold standards set by the company, the # of surveys available, plus other ventures – watching television, ads, playing video games and etc that are all available. Super Pay Me and Hunter Gift Club were two sites in your top ten that I am not familiar with.
Jeff
Thanks for the feedback and sharing your experiences Jeff.
I agree that it is a disadvantage that on most sites you will not be able to qualify for all surveys. On most platforms you will however know after a few seconds, if you qualify for a certain survey or not. But of course it can still be frustrating to keep getting disqualified for some surveys.
I have however found that after using a platform for a while, it is definitely possible to see a pattern about what kind of surveys you are most likely to qualify for, and the ones that you most often do not qualify for, you can then just not even try – that approach has made it a lot more efficient for me to take surveys.
All the best,
Mikael
Hello Mikael
Thanks for your reviews,quite enlightening.
Please I just signed up with prize rebel and don’t know what to do.
I tried and downloaded a game and played as I was instructed but didn’t earn any points. I completed a survey and still haven’t seen any points on the quick stats.
Please help.
Hi Kingsley,
Sometimes the offers and surveys do not credit right away. The rewards for surveys can usually be seen in your account within 24 hours. For offers it can take longer. This is because PrizeRebel needs to have it verified by the company providing the survey or offer before they can credit it.
If you go to your account settings, you can click on earnings history. Here you can see any surveys or offers that are pending and waiting for approval.
Hope this helps and let me know, if you have more questions and feel free to also keep me updated on how it goes.
Mikael
