Paid Surveys

What They Say: Fill in opinion polls to earn cash and win prizes. Share your opinions to directly influence the way companies develop products and councils develop services.

What We Say: Nice site, great polls. UK only. You earn MyVoice points for taking polls which you can cash in for vouchers, 2000 points = £20 voucher, which is the minimum. Most polls earn 5 points so it can take a while! Also you have to keep visiting the site to see if there are new polls, an email would be a nicer way. MyVoice have recently changed their points scheme and now only the first 5000 responses receive points. All responses are entered into a monthly prize draw however. You can also get 25 points for referring a friend. An interesting site and a good different way to earn some extra money online.

What They Say: Whenever you pay for a product or service, you naturally want to make the best choice. To do this, you need real information, something which Ciao provides with more than 2.7 million product reviews, all written by consumers. No one can help you better! Ciao offers a number of ways to earn money. If you review selected products, you earn 1p every time a member reads your opinion. You also have the opportunity to participate in paid surveys, earn money for inviting friends, and win Premium Fund prizes for quality opinion-writing. Quality Pays The Premium Fund: only on Ciao. Every month we select the best opinions written by Ciao UK members, and reward them with a monthly total of £1,100 in prizes.

What We Say: This is a great site! Earn money by writing reviews, referring people, being an affiliate or all three! Also a great shopping portal. Surveys pay £0.35 to £1.00 a go but have limited places, strictly first come first served but are always interesting. I've recently had surveys on new movies, drinks and food as well as business oriented ones. This could be an interesting way to earn extra money and maybe work from home as a reviewer. Minimum payment is £5 paid direct to your bank account. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

What The Say: Opinion Outpost is an online community where people like you can come to share their opinions by participating in survey research. In return for your valued opinion, you can earn opinion points which can be exchanged for cash and prizes.

What We Say: Updated: Only accepting US and Canadian members now.

A great themed survey site with a good affiliate program featuring a wide range of banners to promote the site.

What We Say:

Not the best survey site out there, and isn't very frequent in the number of surveys it sends out but they are usually interesting. You're rewarded with iPoints and entry into a monthly sweepstake for participating.

What They Say: Earn points, get rewards.

What We Say: The site is a little confusing initially but once you join it becomes a lot clearer. There are some interesting surveys to take and you cab create your own polls and post them on your blog if required. You won't get paid cash but instead you earn vouchers for major high-street and online stores. Delivery of the vouchers can take up to 8 weeks. Plenty of free product samples to test at home.

What They Say: Which colour looks better? What should they name it? What should the packaging look like? Is it better than what is already out there? Which features are important to you? How much should it cost? What should the ad look like?

What They Say: Spend few seconds filling up a consumer Survey and get holidaypass membership worth £99 absolutely free !

What We Say: Site looks cheap and it's not very clear what the "holidaypass membership" entitles you to or whether it is actually worth £99, or how to redeem it, or who with. Looks like they'll spam you to death with offers. Might be worth signing up for if you have a throw away email address.

What They Say: MySurvey is a consumer panel made up of individuals who have volunteered to participate in market research studies. MySurvey is the website where panel members can participate in online research, update their information and redeem their MySurvey Points for gifts and charity donations.

What They Say: Take part in interesting surveys and earn great rewards. As a participant you will receive credits for your participation called E-Points. The amount of E-Points depends on the length of the survey and will be stated in the invitation email. One E-Point equals 16 Pence.

Example: For a very short survey (2 to 3 minutes) you get 2 E-Points
(= 32 Pence), for a complex survey (20 to 25 minutes) you get 11 E-Points (= 1,76 GBP).

As soon as your account has reached a balance of 100 E-Points, you can select an incentive from one of our partners.

What We Say: Simple site design and easy to register. 100 e-points will earn you a £16 Amazon e-voucher which appears to be the only reward they offer.

What They Say: Ipsos Access Panels is the leading European provider of market research surveys using access panels. Answering surveys as part of our online panel is the quickest and easiest way to make your opinion count!

What We Say: Easy sign up process but very little information on the site itself. You earn points for each completed survey which you can trade in for vouchers from Amazon. A well respected and trustworthy company let down by a poor site.
