If you are not cutting it financially or just need some extra cash, then online survey sites are great alternatives to make-up that extra cash that you need.
You most likely tried survey sites before and didn’t really find them resourceful for your need. Or maybe the primary reason you didn’t get into them it because the payout was not reasonable enough for the time that you spent doing the surveys.
If you want to give survey sites another try or your first try, take a look at recommendations from Student Money Adviser for legit and best survey sites.
1. Swagbucks
Swagbucks have been around for a long time now and I am not surprised because this survey site has a large variety of ways to making money beyond just surveys like other options including just simply surfing the web or watching videos.
Swagbucks rewards points system called “SB” points and it is well-known to give away free SB points just for being a member of Swagbucks. Yeah, that’s right! Free points that you can convert to money!
You get “SB” points every time you complete something and then you can redeem the “SB” points for cash or gift cards. In my test, the process of navigating the site and redeeming money was relatively easy.
You can get free $10 for signing up and taking your first survey. Easy Money!
2. MyPoints
MyPoints is another great survey site that has been around for two decades now that offers a wide variety of ways to earn like watching videos, taking surveys, reading emails, and even playing games!
You can also earn money just by shopping online though their website like amazon, Walmart, and eBay to name a few. This is great! You earn points just for buying your usual staff online, easy points!
You can get $10 Amazon card after signing up and making your first purchase though their website. Tip: Buy something cheap like $1 or even Free and you get you $10.
3. PointClub
PointClub is unique in its own ways. One that stand out to me the most is the ability to earn more by by logging in on daily basis. So-called “daily streak” a number that stacks up your bonuses every day consecutively you log in, which will return more points. So, the secret is – by logging in on daily basis and completing surveys, you earn more and more. Don’t get behind, because one missed day can really set you back.
4. Survey Junkie
Survey Junkie is a very simple and easy to use platform and there’s no limit on how many surveys you take. They are quick to complete and I found them very interesting and informing that I believe will keep you constantly entertained and you will not lose interest. 1,000 points equal to $10 – can be redeemed via PayPal or gift cards to your favorite stores. Get started here.
5. Opinion Outpost
Opinion Outpost offers a large variety of surveys from almost every kind of business. Majority take about 10 minutes to complete and the points that you earn can be redeemed just like other survey sites through gift cards or cashing out through PayPal, you can also redeem through United Mileage program to earn miles.
The best part about Opinion Outpost is by completing surveys, you are entered into sweepstakes that they run quarterly and the winner gets $10,000 cash prize. So, if you are frequent, then you might have a big shot at scoring this generous prize!
