Paid Surveys Online

Some “paid surveys online” are sent to you and called preliminary or qualification questions.

In down time(s), or for (a small bit of) extra income, or just for an interesting experience, you can participate in taking paid surveys online. Keep in mind, however, that there are scammers who will use you without coming through with the originally offered incentives, so rather than waste time and effort, try some of the following steps for taking paid surveys online for cash or prizes.

Some “paid surveys online” are sent to you and called preliminary or qualification questions.  So you click through five or so pages and then are told you are not eligible for the survey they need answered.  Who knows if his is an actual survey they are getting away with administering without rewarding you for…but real surveys pay real money (in excruciatingly small increments, but hey, money is money).

WHERE TO GO

Which is which?  Which will actually pay and will follow through with claims of being paid surveys online?  And which will just waste your time and leave you feeling puzzled or used?  Through a writers’ newsletter I found what is called the Survey Club.  They did all the research into the legitimate and also the most profitable programs.  All you have to do is fill in the individual forms on the individual sites.

WHAT ELSE SHOULD YOU DO?

At surveyclub.com, then, you can (for free) register and get insight into what the club has found to be the top twenty-five survey websites.  You manually visit each program website and register with three or four safe pieces of information, including your email address.  Each program sends you a confirmation email with a link for you to click on (in the email), which takes you to the site and announces you have been confirmed as a survey participant.  From that point, it will be announced whether there are any available surveys to take, or whether you should just watch your email box for survey announcements. 

WHAT WILL YOU GET?

First, some programs award you the chance at a sweepstakes or drawing (of a great prize OR money, depending) every time you visit that particular site where you first signed up and log in.

Next, some paid surveys online will result in one or more of the following rewards or incentives:

You can earn points for taking surveys.
You can earn points for referring others.

Some programs give you one automatic entry into their big cash amount sweepstakes ($10k, for example) when you first become a member.

Some of the same programs also give you the chance to win a great number (50k, for example) of points the very first time you take a survey.

Other programs have a daily giveaway of a large increment of points (10,000 points, for example).

Typically, you can redeem the points you earn, using them for cash, charity donations, prizes, or raffle tickets.

Each paid surveys online program specifies up front what you can earn, and/or each program includes the details of rewards in each survey invitation they email you.  Be sure to get the info before you start!


So if you have or take the time and have or use a little patience, paid surveys online can be interesting things to complete to fill up your time or to bring a little added income.
