Reviews of Paid Surveys

If you are interested in getting paid from surveys, you have maybe realized that there are thousands of sites that offer paid surveys.

reviews of paid surveys
It can be difficult to know which paid survey sites to choose.

The quality of the sites and the money-making opportunities do, however, vary greatly. It can be frustrating to test them to find which ones are legit and which ones are a waste of time, and it is difficult to find honest and in-depth reviews of paid surveys.

That is where PaidFromSurveys.com came in – I got curious about the opportunity to make money on paid surveys and started joining and testing sites at the beginning of 2016.

Since then, I have tested A LOT of sites, and have found both great and not so great sites, and have unfortunately also found some that are outright scams.

When I first started, it was difficult for me to find any good information about which survey sites to join. Most review sites were either overly positive to sell me the idea to make money themselves or overly negative to sell me another kind of online service to join.

So I decided to make this website with in-depth and balanced reviews of online survey sites and everything else that is worth knowing about surveys. I will do my best to help you get a better overview and get started quickly without having to test all the sites yourself.

How I make my reviews

I have tested and researched all the survey sites before doing a review. I have, however, not tested all the sites I am reviewing, as some of them are clearly outright scams, and I do not want to give my money to scammers (yes, there are scam sites that try to charge you for doing surveys – do never join a site that does this).

So that is why I am also doing reviews of these scam sites, as I will happily help to expose them so they do not earn money, and help you to avoid wasting your time and money on these sites, and instead find the survey sites that are worth joining.

I will continuously do new reviews and update the existing reviews if I realize new aspects, pluses, or minuses with any of the sites or if any of the sites introduce new opportunities.

When doing the reviews, I will look at how easy it is to get started on the site, how much money it is possible to make, how much time it takes, how user friendly is it, are there any joining bonuses, how do they pay out, and more. I am trying to give as many details as possible and give both pros and cons, so you can see all the aspects and use this to decide which sites are the right for you.

You might have experiences with some of the sites I have reviewed, and if you have any comments, different experiences, or things to add, please feel free to leave a comment somewhere on this website – I would love to hear your opinion as well.

Do you know a survey site you want me to review?

I am continuously testing new sites and will update this website with new reviews and advice frequently. But I am sure that there are many sites I am not aware of. If you know a page you would like me to review, please leave a comment below, and I will look into it asap. It is always great to learn about new sites:-)

  1. I was online the other day and my digital survey sent me a check. A couple of checks actually – one of them was $1000000 and said they called my number – how viable is this company my digital survey and do they do checks like that?

    • Hi John,

      This sounds a bit suspicious. I do not know the company but how big a check did they write to you? And did you ever sign up for them and take any surveys through them?

      As far as I can see it is not an actual survey site but it seems to be just promoting other survey sites.

      But the questions I asked above are important to consider before knowing if it is real or not.

      • Since this comment was first made, I have written a review of My Digital Survey and it is definitely not a site that pays. It is just a survey aggregator so they do not pay out so definitely was a scam check. Hope John sees this and can update us about how everything went?

  2. Does anyone know this company my digital survey and the survey companies do this kind of thing offer your that kind of a check and also offer you credit cards with 500 to $1,000 on them somebody? help me out please

    • Hi again John,

      I am not sure what you say My Digital Survey has offered you? You definitely can earn money by taking surveys, and some survey companies also pay to you on prepaid cards.

      But if you never signed up for it and if you have not yet taken any surveys through them, something is off. I have received emails from scam survey companies myself saying that I just made $500 by just clicking in an email. That is NOT true, since I knew I had never taken a survey through them.

      There are many legit survey companies, but unfortunately also many scams.

      If you can tell me a bit more in details what you have experienced I will be happy to share my opinion about it.

      • Just saying digital reflections is a company that you put a box and connect to your computer that they send you, and they pay you for monitoring your searches, etc. Not sure if that is what your referring to but I use them personally. Not sure if that helps you any, put they are legit, I have been paid by them.

  4. Please review Instar Wallet. It provides opportunities for its users to earn cryptocurrency for participating in daily surveys.

    • Hi there, do you know anything about liquid opinions survey site? I’ve been with them since 2015 and never had a problem until now. I hit my target and requested a payout from them 3 weeks ago, it says 3 working days but still nothing after 3 weeks. I’ve sent multiple emails but never had a response from them. When you search them online there are some negative comments about them an SD people not receiving their earnings but there all dated a year ago. Please help me.

      • Sorry to hear that Lee. I have not heard about Liquid Opinions before so I cannot say anything, unfortunately. But will write it on the list of sites to look into.

        Please keep me updated if you hear back from them or not.

        Thanks

  5. Hi Mikael,

    Would like to share my experience with GlobalTestMarket. Signed up with them. Completed several surveys. Then problems started when I tried to login into my account to find out how to redeem the lifepoints earned. Surprise! After keying in my email and password, I was repeatedly promptly with a ’email or password is invalid’ and after several tries was totally lock out for ‘too many trys’. So, i email their helpdesk, and was ignored until the third message, i received this request in my inbox:

    Panel Support (GlobalTestMarket)
    18 Jan, 16:33 GMT
    Dear Panel Member,

    We have been unable to locate an account for you with the email address you have contacted us.
    For security purposes, please provide the following information so can verify your account and update any information needed.
    1. Date of Birth (MM/DD/YYYY)
    2. Email Address
    3. Title (Mr., Mrs., Ms.)
    4. First Name
    5. Last Name
    6. Country
    7. Language
    8. Home Address 1
    9. Home Address 2 (if applicable)
    10. State/Province
    11. City
    12. Zip/Postal Code
    13. Home Phone

    Can somebody enlighten me why if they have been unable to locate my account, how come they have continued to sent me new surveys since? Even now when I have yet to return this request?

    Cheers

    Jack

    • Thanks for sharing your experience Jack. It does sound strange.

      If the request was sent by GTM, I would send the info to them to see if they can restore your access even though it is strange you even lost it. I, however, know it is a legit site since I have been paid by it several times myself.

      I have also heard that GTM is right now in the process of relaunching itself under a new name and platform in the US. If you live here, this might be a part of why the platform is acting up?

      Anyways, hope you will soon get access to your points and again thanks for sharing with the rest of us. Feel free to keep us updated.

      • I have a questioin, now that Global test market, and my survey, merged and are Lifepoints now, The way i see it is, you either use GTM or Mysurvey cause they are combined….no sence in using both? Am I correct on this? Im still mad becuase mysurvey owes me like 1900 points withi is over 15usd, and say they are gonna send and do not, I have send NUMEROUS email mikael….can yuo help with this?

        • Hi Darlene,

          GTM and MySurvey still have separate sites in some countries. But GTM will soon close down in all countries. Not sure if MySurvey will keep having panels in certain countries. As for the US where you live, you are right that it does not make sense to use both of them.

          Really frustrating you keep not getting the payout from MySurvey. Unfortunately, I do not have any contacts there I can contact and see what is going on, so cannot really help much. My only suggestion is to just keep writing them until they pay you.
