List of the Best Paid Survey Sites

The list below includes a few sites I have successfully used to make money online from surveys and offers.

CashCrate: A free GPT (get paid to) site that provides daily paid online surveys, offers, games, shopping rebates and more. 

NOTE: This survey site is best for people living in the United States because US residents will be provided with the largest selection of surveys and offers. If you live outside of the US, you won’t have many surveys or offers to choose from.

The highest paid surveys pay $.80 each. The offers pay $1 to $50 each and many of them are totally free and do not require a credit card. Minimum age requirement to sign up is 13, making it a good survey site for teenagers. You will automatically receive a check in the mail after earning $20.

Project Payday: Members make money filling out offers. The site now also provides a newer paid online surveys option too. Project Payday is not a job, or a get rich quick scheme. After you sign up, paid survey options can be found in the “Resources” section. Some of the offers available through the site pay as much as $75 each, but most pay $25 each. The research surveys pay $1 to $3 each. Minimum age requirement to use Project Payday is 18. Minimum age requirement to take their surveys is 13.

SurveySavvy: A free market research company that only provides paid surveys online and nothing else. The surveys pay $1 to $5 in the beginning and occasional surveys that pay more. Surveys are available by invitation only. New members must complete profile demographic questions after signing up to begin receiving invitations by email. SurveySavvy accepts new members outside of the United States, but check the drop down list of countries when signing up to see if your country is listed or not. Earnings are issued by check after earning at least $1 and you must request payment yourself because there is no automatic payment. Minimum age requirement to join and take surveys is 14.

SwagBucks: A unique rewards site where members earn Swagbucks, instead of cash, for answering survey questions, searching the site and completing a multitude of simple tasks that anyone can do in their spare time. Earned Swagbucks are redeemable for items in the massive Swag Store. Items range from MP3s and movies to stereo systems and clothes. If you earn enough Swagbucks, you can win a lot of really cool stuff. Minimum age requirement is 13. The site is currently open to United States residents only. New members automatically earn 30 Swagbucks when they sign up. Swagbucks are earned pretty easily from active use of the site and their handy toolbar. The site provides a nice referral program that enables you to earn more Swagbucks faster.
