Is Surveys4Moms Legit or a Scam? (Review + Alternatives)

Surveys4Moms Rating


Surveys4Moms does not have very many earning opportunities compared to many similar sites, it has a high payout threshold, and it is very slow to process payouts so not a top pick.

Surveys4Moms may sound like a great way to make some extra money.

But is it really the best place for moms (or anybody else) to get paid to take surveys? In other words, is it legit or a scam?

In this Surveys4Moms review, I will give you all the details about this survey site and reveal what you can expect after joining. That way, you will be able to properly evaluate if it is the right opportunity for you to earn.

Let me reveal right away that you do not actually have to be a mom to join, and you can also join as a man.

Whether it is worth it or not, I will let you decide after you have read the review and know what the site offers. In case you decide it is not for you, I will also show you the best alternatives.

What is Surveys4Moms, and what does the site offer?

Surveys4Moms was founded in 2014 and has its headquarters in the US.

When you look at the design of the website, you might, however, think it is a lot older than it is, as the design does not look very updated – but the design is not everything. So, it does not determine whether a survey site is worth joining or not.

So let us take a look at what Surveys4Moms offer:

Option 1 – Paid surveys:

As the name suggests, the main way you can earn on Surveys4Moms is by taking surveys. Sites that have this as the main way of making money are often very easy to use, as there are not many things you need to figure out how to use.

That is also the case for Surveys4Moms – it is very user-friendly in the sense that it is easy to see what you need to do and how to get started.

However, it does not look like there are many surveys available. This does depend on the country you live in, so it might be different for you. But in general, I am not impressed with the survey opportunities I have seen there.

There are a bunch of profile surveys you can fill out when you first join. These are often good to fill out, as they can help the survey companies match surveys for you. Some sites give you a small reward for completing these, but that is not the case on Surveys4Moms. If you fill out all the info, it can take quite a while.

It is usually a good idea to do it on survey sites, but in this case, I am not sure it is worth the time. Before doing so, I would suggest you see if there are any surveys available to you.

If there are, it can increase your chances of getting more. If not, it might very well be because you are in the same situation as me and are in a location where there are no surveys, and then you would just be wasting your time by filling out this profile info.

Option 2 – Build your downline:

Surveys4Moms has one other way you can earn, and that is by inviting other people to join. On the website, they really try to make this sound like a good option. And on the front page, you can see how they present this as an exclusive option.

surveys4moms referral program
Surveys4Moms claims to have an exclusive referral program.

The fact is that referral programs are very normal to have on survey sites, so there is nothing exclusive about it. Furthermore, the referral program on Surveys4Moms is, in my opinion, not very good.

They try to explain it in a way that sounds very appealing, but it can be confusing to understand what you actually get for inviting friends.

In the section where you can build your downline, it is explained that they share up to 45% of the revenue with the survey takers. This might sound like a lot, but it does not say a lot about how much you will get paid.

But if you look further, you can see that it says you get 10% in commission on whatever friends you have invited will earn. This will not be taken from your friend's earnings but will be paid by Surveys4Moms.

It is an okay commission, but 10% is usually the lowest survey sites pay in commission when you invite friends, so it is definitely not an exclusive program.

However, it can be a way to make a bit of extra money if your friends will be able to find any available surveys on Surveys4Moms, and if they will take them.

How do you get paid?

When you take surveys on Surveys4Moms, you will get paid in dollars no matter which country you live in. These can later be paid out in different ways.

It is difficult to find out exactly what rewards Surveys4Moms is offering, as what it says in the FAQ section on the website is different from what I can see in my account.

One sure thing is that you can get paid through PayPal. This is a great payment option, so it is good to know that this is an option. But in the FAQ section, it says that you can also get magazine subscriptions or Facebook credits.

I cannot see these options in my account, but I can, however, see the options to get restaurant gift cards, donate to charity, or get internet services.

None of these options, however, have any content in my account, so it is difficult to say if they are real options or if it is an error.

surveys4moms​​ rewards
Many of the rewards seem not to be available.

But PayPal seems to definitely be an option. You have to earn $20 before you can request a payout. A little too high a payout threshold, in my opinion, but still reasonable.

Be aware that once you have taken a survey, it will take 4-6 weeks before it will be approved and before you get the money in your Surveys4Moms account. This is extremely slow.

On most survey sites, you will be able to see the amount in your account right away unless it is a particular high reward you are getting and your answers need to be confirmed.

How much money can you make?

Surveys4Moms says that it is very much up to you and how many surveys you qualify for.

From what I have seen, I am, however, not impressed by the number of opportunities. So, if you live in a country where there are surveys available, you will probably be able to make a little extra cash. But do not expect to make a lot more than just a bit of pocket money.

If you want to have more chances of earning, there are definitely survey sites with better opportunities, in my opinion.

Can you use it on mobile?

When reviewing a survey site, I always make sure to check, if it can be used on mobile devices, as it is a great way to be able to take surveys when you have a few minutes extra once in a while during the day.

You can use Surveys4Moms on mobile devices. It does not have an app, but you can use the website itself.

The website is not particularly well optimized for phones, so you might have to zoom in and out a bit, but you can log in to the website from your phone and take surveys there.

Who can join?

You would think that maybe only moms can join this survey platform because of the name. However, I am not a woman, and I was still able to join even though I was honest about being a man.

So, you do not have to be a woman or a mom to join.

Officially Surveys4Moms is, however, only available in the United States, the UK, Canada, and Australia. You can still join if you are not from these countries, but you should not expect to get any opportunities if you are from other countries.

Tip if you want to join

If you decide Surveys4Moms is the right survey site for you, I just want to give you a couple of tips for the joining process, as there are a couple of unusual things compared to how it works on most survey sites.

You will, for example, have to go through an initial survey with different offers.

surveys4moms joining offers
You are offered certain “special” offers in the joining process.

These “special” offers are NOT something you have to sign up for.

You can just ignore them, and in most cases, I would advise you to do this. I have not experienced having to go through offers like this on many other survey sites, but not a big problem as long as you are aware that you can just ignore them.

Also, at the end of the sign-up form, you have to describe your dream vacation. This might sound like something that can take a long time to do.

But there is no need to spend too much time doing this, as there is no benefit to it, and you will just be wasting a lot of time, in my opinion. You have to fill it out to be able to register, but you can just write one word. So, for example, just write the country you would like to go on a vacation in.

Final verdict

Surveys4Moms can potentially give you access to earn a bit extra by taking surveys. But it is not necessarily the best use of time, in my opinion.

But let's finish this review by summing up the pros and cons so you can get a better overview before deciding whether you want to join or not.

pros

Pros:

  • Free to join
  • Legit way to earn a little extra cash
cons

Cons:

  • Not many earning opportunities
  • Poor referral program
  • High payout threshold
  • Very slow to approve rewards

In general, Surveys4Moms seems like a legit paid survey site where you can earn some extra cash.

However, whether you are a mom or not, or no matter which country you are from, there are survey sites with a lot more opportunities and better chances of earning.

So, unless you just want to join as many survey sites as possible, I would recommend you instead check out the list of survey sites with better opportunities by clicking the link below.

  1. What a wonderful article you have put together here. And you are absolutely right, not many trusted survey sites that actually do what they claim.

    Your review approach is well detailed that paid survey just got my attention even more once again.

    Thanks for the great review and I am sure a lot of people will find it very useful in towards decision making.

  2. Hey really good article, 

    I am not a fan of survey sites. I am against them and I even wrote an article about survey sites on my site. I have not heard of this one though, all of my run ins with survey sites never ends well and is always a waste of time because i strongly believe in building an online business to make passive income and not have to always take millions of surveys.

    • Thanks for your comment Justin and for the feedback.

      I do not agree that all survey sites are a waste of time. There are many poor ones, but luckily there are also many where you can make some nice extra cash. 

      But you are very right that it is not a way to become rich, but for people that just want to make some extra cash on the side, paid surveys are a great option – it does not take any time to get started, you will make money from day one, and you do not need any investment or any specific skills. 

      So it very much depends on the goal and expectations, if survey sites are worth joining. But in general I think they give great opportunities, when you join the right survey sites, and I have benefited from it a lot myself.

      But I appreciate you sharing your opinion and experiences.  

      All the best,
      Mikael
