Survey sites

1.Harris Poll

Harris Poll has made a strong presence in the market research industry. They are a member of the National Council of Public Polls (NCPP), the Council of American Survey Research Organizations (CASRO), the Council for Marketing and Opinion Research (CMOR), and the European Society for Opinion & Marketing Research (ESOMAR). The firm abides by the standards of these organizations, thus proving their reputability.They operate with a points system, which can be redeemed for rewards. Most reward include gift cards to places like Amazon, iTunes, Starbucks, Home Depot, and Wal-Mart. You can also recieve e-vouchers or donate your earnings to charity.

Convenience: 4.0/5.0- The startup questions can be a little lengthy and you may run into a server problem on occasion. Besides these two minor inconveniences, it's a good experience overall.

Accessibility: 5.0/5.0- They are available on most devices, and their interface is clean and easy to maneuver.

Return on Time: 4.5/5.0- Variety of different rewards opportunities and the minimum amount required to withdraw rewards is low. You may get disqualified from some of their surveys, but you will receive 15 point compensation for your efforts.

Privacy: 5.0/5.0- They provide a privacy policy, which is a good sign. It's pretty straightforward, and they have methods to ensure that there is no possibility of identifying an individual participant. They work hard to keep you anonymous.

Overall Grade: A

2.Survey Club

With Survey Club, members can earn money by taking surveys, using coupons, and participating in various research studies. Once you reach the minimum of $20, you can redeem your cash via PayPal, Amazon giftcards, or a check. Payment processing is pretty standard, and you can expect your prospects in a couple weeks.Founded back in 2005, Survey Club is one of those survey sites that has been around for a while. Their user count is in the millions, and continues to grow. What makes Survey Club different from the average survey site is that they offer a list of survey panels to join.

Convenience: 4.5/5.0- Sign up process is lengthy, but after that it isn't bad.

Accessibility: 5.0/5.0- Functions well on desktops all over the world.

Return on Time: 4.0/5.0- While they offer high paying opportunities like their Focus Groups, the survey acceptance rate can be unpredictable. They do consistently pay, though, and every time you're disqualified from a survey you recieve $0.10 as compensation.

Privacy: 4.5/5.0- Your information is kept safe as promised in their privacy policy. You may receive some emails about potential offers, though, but you can opt out of them at any time.

Overall Grade: B

3.Toluna

How much is your opinion worth? If it's through Toluna, roughly $1.50 per survey. Of course, it would be awesome if they said that right up front but 90,000 reward points to get a $30 PayPal e-certificate should rough equivalent.

Where Toluna gets it right is in terms of accessibility. They spared no expense designing apps for both the Android and Apple mobile devices. Why this is actually a great thing is it means pretty much if you have an internet connection and free time – you can be earning points towards money.Did we say rewards points? Yep. That's because of odd taxation laws. So they can legally gift rewards points redeemable in prizes but would have more of a hassle just paying in money.

Convenience: 4.5/5.0 - Signing up is relatively quick and easy, although you are required to fill out several forms before account registration is complete. Relatively fast and easy to do, though.

Accessibility: 5.0/5.0 – Specialized apps for both Android and Apple mobile devices, as long as there is an internet connection, Toluna can be accessed.

Return on Time: 3/5.0 – It takes a LOT of surveys to get to the first increment of PayPal e-certificates – the truest sign of what it's all worth.

Privacy: 5.0/5.0 – They do a good job of informing you, the survey taker, of implicitly how much information they plan on getting, storing, and distributing.

Overall Grade: B+

4.Inbox Dollars

InboxDollars provides surveys and paid email opportunities that pay in actual cash.You also have opportunities to make money buying products and services, although the amount of time and money spent buying these products takes you pretty close to break even.Unlike some of the other sites, with Inbox Dollar, you essentially sign up to take advantage of whatever Inbox Dollar makes from their advertisers. They will send you emails which they get paid per receipt of you reading them or clicking a link. In turn, they give you a cut. Not to ruin your day but it's a rather small cut. The links that end up paying out the most usually have some stipulations attached – such as signing up for a service. This can end up being a lot more hassle than its worth and we recommend you pay VERY close attention to the stipulations.
Convenience: 5.0/5.0 – Simple sign up process. Interface design is a little basic, but pretty easy to navigate the site and sign up and take surveys.

Accessibility: 5.0/5.0 – Available through nearly any platform and operating system (desktop, mobile, mobile app).

Return on Time: 3.5/5.0 – We give a middle of the road grade for Return on Time because it can turn into an almost passive form of income if done properly. It won't, however, ever become a big cash prize sort of place. Numerous complaints about not qualifying for surveys after getting part way through the survey.

Privacy: 4.5/5.0 – Par for the course in terms of soliciting your information to third parties and tracking you with cookies. While parts of their privacy policy may be a little unclear, typically the only time you'll run into issues is when you click on links from InboxDollars and go to other sites that have very different privacy policies.

Overall Grade: B

Owned and operated by Research Now, Valued Opinions is a long time member of the market research industry. With over 3 million members, the panel is available in over 15 languages across more than 20 different countries.Rewards are earned by taking surveys. Surveys dish out cash which is turned into gift cards, e-vouchers, or airline miles.They offer many different forms of rewards, but their main way of paying their members is through gift cards.

Accessibility: 5.0/5.0- Things run smoothly both on their website and mobile app.

Overall Grade: B

6.Surveyeah

Relatively new to market research, Surveyeah is yet another survey site that pays its members to take surveys. You can also take part in student research and referrals, but surveys are their main type of offer.

A simple layout makes joining super easy, and their privacy policies are in no doubt secure. What's great about Surveyeah is that they do not push their members into sharing anything they don't want to. They only thing they require is an email address to send you your surveys.On average, you'll recieve 2-4 surveys a month, each paying around $1. If you're lucky, sometimes you can find a survey that pays up to $5 depending on the length. At the moment they only have gift cards and merchandise as redeemable rewards options, but PayPal deposits and amazon vouchers are coming soon.

Convenience: 4.0/5.0- The startup process is relatively smooth, but the slow earning pace can be bothersome at times.

Accessibility: 5.0/5.0- They are available internationally on both PC and mobile devices. Their simple layout makes it easy to use their services.

Return on Time: 3.5/5.0- Payment processing occurs in a matter of seconds, but with only only 2-4 surveys per month it can take longer than what is preferred to earn a bankable amount.

Privacy: 5.0/5.0- They out a lot of emphasis on privacy, and they let you make the calls. Besides your email, you do not have to fill out any additional information unless you want to.

Overall Grade: B

7.NiceQuest

NiceQuest is similar to other paid survey companies in that you get rewarded for your time spent taking surveys. However, instead of earning cash for surveys you can instead redeem your points (called "shells") for gifts in various categories including toys, kitchen accessories, gift cards, books, and more.We've noticed a lot fewer surveys available through them, but the ones they do offer pay a pretty normal rate.

Convenience: 3.0/5.0 – While the sign up process is easy, you must be "invited" in order to join. Good news is that we're able to invite you (click here for invitation)

Accessibility: 5.0/5.0 – Site works on desktop and mobile, and the mobile app is free

Return on Time: 3.0/5.0 – Very few surveys available in our experience (1-3 a month), but pay rate is normal

Privacy: 5.0/5.0 – Standard privacy policy; nothing stands out

Overall Grade: C
