Paid Surveys

What are paid surveys? -Major companies around the world like to get feedback on consumer spending habits when considering creating new products or examing current ones. They often work with consumer review companies in an effort to gather this feedback from consumers. These companies then ask consumers to complete surveys about their experiences with the company's products or survey. You are compensated as a show of appreciate for your time and feedback.

What are the requirements to do paid surveys? - The only requirement is that you fit the demographic of consumer they are looking for. When you sign up with the consumer review companies, you will fill out information such as: Location, Age, Race, Gender, Income, Education, Lifestyle etc. That information is then used to determine which surveys you qualify to take part in.

How much do paid surveys pay? - Pay truly varies. I only deal with companies that pay cash (no points, credits, rewards, etc.) and they pay has ranged between $5 and $20 per survey.

Paid Survey Companies - I only deal with a handful of survey companies. My criteria is that they company actually pays and I actually will qualify for a good number of their surveys. My list is short, but lists quality companies.

-Focus Forward

-Pinecone Research

-American Consumer Opinion

-Mindfield Online

If you have any interest in doing free surveys and then getting paid when your friends do them as well, I recommend you joining Cash Crate. I was a bit skeptical at first, but I got about $15 bucks in a month from doing 2 surveys my self and a few family members doing a few as well..hey its gas money.
