I just finished a survey. I love the easy questions and easy user friendly setup. Easy to earn and redeem

Tip for consumers:
Check your email!!!

So when you do enough surveys, they bump you up in badges which in turn gives you more points and more surveys. I've recently been cashing out over $5 every few days.

Tip for consumers:
You really have to stick to it! Keep doing the surveys no matter how many times you get disqualified or the survey fills up. Even the points for trying add up.

Since the change, I haven't been participating because I'm having issues with my PayPal. So they sent me a final payment and closed my account until I can fix my PayPal. :(

Lots of surveys, limited qualifications.

I've been a member of Vindale for about 6 years. It takes $50.00 to cash out, which takes a while because although there are a ton of surveys, I don't qualify for a lot of them. There's also other things like a community forum and contests, etc. You just have to be patient and persistent.

I fell out of love with this site after the change. Seemed confusing and non-user-friendly. But I received an email and decided to try once more. They've made it easier to navigate and easier to earn and redeem rewards. I'm still not big on multiple social media tasks so I usually skip those. But I'm already waiting on my first reward after 2 days so I'm willing to give it another chance!

So many awesome earning opportunities and free stuff!

I've made about $50 so far, and I only complete the poll and questionnaire portions due to my phone's lack of ability. If you're really all about social media sharing, this site is perfect for you!

  • BzzAgent

I'm not a social butterfly. I'm not big on posting pics on every social media platform. In fact I only use one. Bzzagent wants lots of pics and posts if each product they send. The products are great, I'm just not willing to jump through all the social media hoops. If your big on blogging, and posting, and open box reviews, this is the site for you... Not me.

  • Pollpass

I've requested and recieved on payment of $5 in July. It's kind of like chatting with a chat bot. Only downside is waiting on new topics and questions. Also no notifications but that's kind of a good thing for me. I have plenty of survey mail to go through already. I just check Pollpass when I look through my survey site bookmarks.

  • Verizon

3/15/18

Verizon is the only network that works out here in the sticks. Any time I have a problem, I call 611 and they fix it. Usually, I end up with extra data by the end of the call! Best pre-paid plans, best cheap phones, best signal. I'd NEVER switch!

This one takes patience as you have to build up to $25 to redeem. Also, you can end up with the "varies" survey which doesn't do much besides redirect you to a bunch of questions but you never seem to finish the survey. It is worth the effort!

Tip for consumers:
Keep up the effort and it pays off!

  • tellwut

2/1/18

I love Tellwut, because it has lots of fun surveys. I've made about $150 so far. Full disclosure: a lot of surveys are created by Tellwut members, which means they may have errors, typos, be political, religious or sensitive and controversial. You can also leave comments after the daily surveys. You can also recieve high-paying surveys via email. Great site, but if you interact, have an open mind and thick skin.

  • LifePoints

2/1/18

In addition to the surveys on the site, you can also download a fun little app with extra surveys, like surveys on-the-go, where you survey while at the gym or restaurants. I've made about $150 so far.

  • branded surveys

I've made about $100 on this site (formerly Mintvine). Good surveys. If you don't qualify, you still get points for trying. Daily poll is fun.

  • VipVoice

1/12/18

I have been a member for a few years and they have lots of surveys, but collecting rewards is a hassle because you use your points for sweepstakes and auctions. I'd rather just cash in for gift cards. There is one good survey a month, which takes a week to complete and is very long and detailed but rewards a $25 prepaid visa card. It's really the only reason I still participate.

  • Amazon

1/12/18

I love browsing, shopping, wish-listing, and cashing in my survey gift cards! I've been using Amazon for about 3 years or so and I buy everything except food on the app. I use AmazonSmile so that a portion of my purchase goes to a charity of my choice. Whenever I have an issue with a purchase, Amazon takes care of me right away! Luuuurrrrvvvve it!

  • Swagbucks

Just wish I could do more from my smartphone app. I have collected around $100 from swagbucks for Amazon.
