Top 4 Paid Surveys To Make Money

Do paid surveys actually pay?

Short answer, “Yes they do!” But will you get rich? Well, no you won’t. But you will make enough to help pay your bills or buy yourself something nice. So not only can you make money blogging, but you can make money doing paid surveys also!

Filling out these paid surveys in your spare time not only will put some extra pocket money into your pockets, but you also get to make your opinions heard and have a say in how things are going in the world.

Some surveys will also actually send you stuff to test out and will ask you for your opinion of the product you tested. In return, you get to keep the product and sometimes even get paid afterward. We haven’t fit into the right categories yet for the free stuff yet, but we’ve been making some extra money from the surveys still.

I will fill out surveys when I’m in the car waiting for my girlfriend while they’re in the store. It helps pass the time and I also get to earn while I wait. We will also fill them out while we watch TV, or take care of business while we’re in the washroom. LOL!

Some of these surveys that we participate with have awesome Apps to use on your phones and some are Website only Surveys, but all of these are our favorite ones because they actually do payout and are actually fun to take part in.

Our 4 recommended paid survey sites you might want to check out are;

1. LEO

LEO is the platform for you if you’d like to earn some extra cash while voicing your opinion in a totally private setting, from anywhere, anytime.

The biggest private panel in Canada is called LEO, short for Leger Opinion. It was established in 2004 by Leger, the largest privately held survey, market research, and analytics company in Canada. Instead of using the phone to complete surveys, panelists on LEO can do so online. Over 400,000 people in Canada and the US are now part of the LEO community.

You can finish online surveys on a range of subjects on LEO. You’ll earn LEO points for each survey you complete, which you can exchange for rewards like Uber or Uber Eats credits, prepaid Visa cards, PayPal transfers, and more!

You can enter our weekly and monthly contests, where you can win prizes like gift cards, iPads, cash, and more, by completing surveys.

You can rate anything under the sun, including goods, services, businesses, and brands, using our Love, Hate, Rate tool. What do you think?

The opinions you express on LEO remain private whether you participate in online surveys or use Love, Hate, Rate. No matter how positive or negative it may be, we want to hear your truth.

LEO has a free App that we use and you can download it after you sign up for free.

We actually completed a $20 PayPal payout last week after only participating in about 15 or so surveys totaling up to about 30 minutes of our time in total.

$20 for just killing spare time is pretty good in our opinion. We have also been using our bonus points on the weekly draws they have where you can win special products or Gift Cards which is an extra bonus for your time. This is in addition to the regular point you accumulate to cash out on whatever you want, in our case, we want the cash, so $20 PayPal is what we get.

Bet Your Chances
When you take surveys and answer the Question of the Day, you can collect chances and bet them on the contest(s) of YOUR choice!

The more chances you bet, the more chances you have to win.

We love this screen after every survey. We had just recently cashed out our regular LEO points for $20 and we’re already on our way to another $20 again. We also used our bonus points on the $20 Paypal draw and here it shows another point waiting after finishing a survey. What we’re trying to explain here is that it doesn’t take very long to earn points quickly and as a result, M-O-N-E-Y!!!

We just started this survey company and only managed to take one 1-minute survey. That survey was so fast and easy to take and earned us almost $0.60. Making 60 cents a minute isn’t all that bad in our opinion. If all surveys were like that would be like making $36/hour, LOL! Too bad it doesn’t work that way though because you can only take a certain amount of surveys a day. And depending on what personal info you’ve provided will depend on how many paid surveys you will get also.

Greenpanthera.com offers many earning opportunities such as the poll of the day, surveys, and other tasks. You can take surveys every day. As you can see, we have quite a few to take whenever we feel like it. But look at the payouts. Not too bad for a couple of minutes of your time for each one. Again, you can choose to do these whenever you want, with no pressure. Why not kill time while sitting on the toilet and make money pooping? LOL!

4. Influenster

Influenster exists to help you find your next favorite thing. How Influenster does it is probably why you’ve heard of them. And why our 6.5 million members can’t help but talk about them.

So whether you know exactly what you’re looking for, are looking to be inspired, or just want to see what’s out there, Influenster is here to help.

How Do I Get Free Product Samples From Influenster?

Get ready to find your next favorite thing! Curious about how to get free products from Influenster? Here’s the scoop on scoring major freebies. A VoxBox is a box of products Influenster delivers directly to members for free and can include just about anything—beauty products, snacks, pet foods, home improvement products, wellness products… you get the idea. (Products are oftentimes full-size and from the biggest brands or new and emerging brands you haven’t heard of yet.)

And all they ask for in return is the real, give-it-to-me-straight truth. Why? Because everyday consumers and brands rely on honest feedback—the good and bad, and everything in between.

To be eligible to receive a VoxBox, you must sign up and download our app.

1. App downloaded, now what? Tell them about yourself—your likes and dislikes. Your preferences and interests. The more they know, the quicker they can match you to free products they think you’ll love.

2. They don’t want you to miss a thing. Although a wide category of products is available, it can take a while to match you to your next favorite thing. Stay active on the app; interact with community polls, and share reviews on products you’ve used—all of this will help them get to know you better.

3. And now, the best part! Let our personalization tech-wizardry get to work. Beep. Boop. Beep. (Just kidding, they don’t really make that sound.) They can’t wait to surprise and delight you with your next favorite thing.

We haven’t received anything yet because we’re not as active with the app as we should be. We just don’t have the time most days but we’re slowly ranking up to the point that we’ll start receiving free stuff to test out. An acquaintance of ours is getting a lot of great stuff sent to them and that’s how we found out about Influenster.

If you’ve got the time, you should sign up for free and earn some rewards!

Honorable mentions – Paid Surveys

LifePoints is an App and website-based paid surveys platform. This platform makes honorable mentions because although you can earn with this one, the surveys can be quite long, but also rewarding. We simply don’t have the time to participate in some of these surveys because some can take up to 30 minutes or more at a time.

We’ve made about $100 in the past 2 months and that’s from only taking a small number of surveys. This would be a good one for those with a lot of extra time on their hands.

Survey Junkie is another platform we just haven’t had the time to play with a whole lot. But that doesn’t make it worse because there are plenty of surveys being offered. They claim to have an app but we can’t find it on the App Store for iOS. But you can still participate in the surveys right on their website.

You can redeem your money when you reach the threshold of a minimum of $5. We have about $2 more to make, but if we just spent about 20-30 minutes we would probably do that with no problems.

SurveyLion.com is the Consumer Panel Website of Canadian Viewpoint, one of Canada’s largest opinion data collection companies with particular expertise in quantitative fieldwork.

These paid surveys actually pay out a lot! $1-2 per survey which usually takes between 5-10 minutes each. Their payout is different as they seem to mail out payments and the payment dates are weird. We have been waiting for a $30 payment but it’s been only 6 days, so maybe Canada Post is slow even though it’s only coming from the next province over. So that’s why this one is listed here. If we don’t get our payment in the next couple of weeks from today, this listing will get the boot. But it will stay because they pay a lot for their paid surveys.

Conclusion…

What’s my favorite platform for paid surveys? It’s LEO because the App is nice and easy to use and the surveys are fun and on topics that I’m familiar with. They aren’t very long and you can bang off a few in a very short time. Plus they payout right away and you don’t need to wait.

Is there a survey platform that we missed and that you think should be listed here? Post them in the comments below and we’ll check them out. Are you familiar with the ones we’ve posted here? What are your thoughts and experiences?

We hope this list comes in handy and helps you buy yourself a nice cold box of beer or helps pay down some bills.

Cheers!
