Surveys can be a great way to earn some extra money online. You can do them whenever you have some spare time and pick and choose the ones that interest you. In this post I’ll be sharing the best paid survey sites for UK users.
1. Prolific
Payout at: £5
Paid via: PayPal
Prolific is one of the most popular and well respected survey sites. The surveys are usually for academic research projects. You’ll be able to to see how long each one will take and how much you will be paid before you agree to take part. Another benefit of Prolific is that you won’t be screened out. This is because you’ll only be offered surveys you are eligible to take part in.
2. LifePoints
Payout at: £5 or lower for certain gift cards for example £3 Starbucks voucher
Paid via: PayPal or a variety of gift cards including Amazon, Just Eat, Love2Shop and more
LifePoints was developed by Lightspeed, the world’s largest provider of custom research and analysis, operating across 70 countries. It’s one of my favourite survey sites as there are usually plenty of surveys available.
3. YouGov
Payout at: £50
Paid via: Bank transfer
YouGov’s data is constantly featured in the media so if you’d like your opinions to help shape the news (and get paid for it!) YouGov is a fantastic survey site to join. Payout is relatively high at £50. Therefore, it might take a while to reach. On the plus side the surveys are usually short and sweet. On average, they take between 5 and 7 minutes to complete.
4. Valued Opinions
Payout at: £10.50
Paid via: A variety of gift cards including Amazon, Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Argos and more
Valued Opinions pay up to £5 per survey and give you the opportunity to give your opinion on brands products and services. You might even be asked what you think of adverts before they’re released and be offered products to test before they’re launched.
5. Ipsos i-Say
Payout at: £5
Paid via: A variety of gift cards including Amazon, Tesco, M&S and more
i-Say gives you the opportunity to earn i-Say points by completing surveys. These can then be exchanged for gift vouchers. You can also earn entries into prize draws for gadgets like smart watches, headphones and kitchen mixers.
If you’ve enjoyed this list of the best paid survey sites but spend more time on your phone than your laptop, you might prefer to make money using survey apps.
