KEY FEATURES:

SurveySavvy is an online survey site where people can earn cash in exchange for completing surveys. The site is over 20 years old, and has paid out millions in dollars to its members, who are from all over the world.

Join to Take Paid Surveys

SurveySavvy is an online survey panel that offers its users the ability to participate in paid surveys for cash. Becoming a member of the site is free and only takes a minute. Anyone from around the world can join the website to earn cash rewards for every survey completion.

Rewards Offered

With SurveySavvy, you can take online surveys in exchange for cash and get paid by check - the only payment method they offer. Request a check with just $1 in earnings in your account. Note that you will be paid in US dollars, regardless of what country you reside in

Earn Cash for All Survey Completions

SurveySavvy doesn't have any confusing points systems to figure out. Every online survey is offered for a dollar amount, and once you start accruing money, you can request a check that will be mailed to you. Checks are sent to members anywhere in the world, and are issued in US dollars. The minimum payment amount you can request is just $1.

SurveySavvy does not offer PayPal as a payment option and they don't offer gift cards either. They only offer payment checks that are sent through the mail.

Complete Profilers for Better Matched Surveys

SurveySavvy's profilers are called "portraits", which are short surveys stored in your account which if completed, are designed to better match you with paid online surveys that become available. As well, members who fill in these portraits may be selected to complete studies that members who have not completed these will not be invited to.

Great Monthly Draws for When You Don't Qualify

If you attempt to complete a survey and get disqualified, you will earn an entry into the cash draw where you could be one of 50 winners who will receive $10 credited to their accounts!

Special Contests and Opportunities

On occasion, SurveySavvy offers their members the opportunity to win contests. Opportunities such as choosing which charity should receive a substantial donation, YouTube video contests for a cash prize, etc. have all been offered in the past.

SurveySavvy Referral Program

SurveySavvy offers a generous 2-tiered referral program. Not only will you earn a portion of the cash earnings for your direct referrals, but you will also earn a portion of the survey earnings from your referrals' referrals. Simply visit the 'Home' section on the website to input your referral's name and email. SurveySavvy will reach out to your referral via email and once your referral has signed up and completed a survey, you'll be credited within 4-12 weeks on your account.

Alternatively, you can simply copy your referral link from your account and share it on social media, your website, or with your friends, instead of having SurveySavvy email your contacts.

Worldwide Presence

SurveySavvy is one of the very few online survey panels that accept people from all around the world. They have members in over 195 countries and have been around since 1999.

SavvyConnect

SurveySavvy has a tool called SavvyConnect where members can participate in market research by surfing the internet. SavvyConnect aggregates data to provide analysis on internet surfing habits - this information is not sold and is used for behavioral research purposes only. Installing SavvyConnect on your computer or mobile device also enables SurveySavvy members to access additional paid research opportunities. You can get $5 per device each month plus access to special surveys and expedited payments!

Is SurveySavvy Legit?

Believe it or not, SurveySavvy has been offering paid surveys for over 20 years and as such, is completely legit and is certainly not a scam. Although members of the site may have varying degrees of success with the program, SurveySavvy is a legitimate online surveys website that is very safe to use. Bear in mind that although they offer the opportunity for anyone in the world to join their site, people in predominantly English-speaking countries (USA, Canada, UK, etc.) will receive more frequent invitations to complete surveys.

Luth Research, the company that operates the SurveySavvy panel, is a member of the BBB (the Better Business Bureau). They have maintained a solid rating on the platform for many years, providing more confidence that SurveySavvy is legitimate.

Eligibility: Residents worldwide, aged 13+

I used to really like this company, they're still okay overall, but I recently was signed up for a direct mail study, and after 3 months, told I wasn't going to be paid the $10/mo promised. If you sign up, make sure you read ALL instructions and get the payment amount in writing. I do like that they pay for referrals, pay 1-$5 or more for surveys, but as others mentioned, they pay slowly, taking 6-8 wks to send a check.

I have been a member for a few years. This past year I have been invited to several high paying surveys. In one year I have earned almost $300.

Survey Savvy is BY FAR the BEST survey site EVER!!! You only have to reach a $10 threshold to cash out, you can choose cash or gift cards, and you get a ton of surveys every day!

I have been a member for many years and have done many surveys from them. You can cash out at anytime though it takes a long time to receive your check. My biggest complaint is that I downloaded their survey connect app to two computers my smartphone and two tablet participate in a couple research project only to have them say that the app was not active for the full 90 days to receive payment. I checked everyday to make sure my apps were running and they were. I never receive notice the apps were not running and now when it is time for payment they are not paying. This app runs down your batteries and slows down your computer. I am very disappointed they are not paying me. I have to take their word that the app is not running even though it show on their site the app is running and has been running for over 90 days.

This was a real good site. Not many surveys but they all paid at least $1 or more. Little slow for your credit to appear and it took about 4 weeks to get a check with the mim. beiing only a $1.

So why am I upset. They had this project which the board went sent me these self addressed and postage paid envelopes. I was to mail them all my junk mail. For this I would receive a credit for $10 a month. I was told but I do not remember that I also signed up for email spam which copies of my emails are sent to them for another $5 a month. I have not received any credits since Sept and when I inquired I was told my email deliveries was stopped and they were unable to contact me. Dah, i have receiving survey requests from them. To get to the point , they no longer need me.

With that altitude, who needs them. So if you are thinking of joining them, just beware. Maybe just a coincidence, when they claimed they stopped getting email from me, the AOL address book got hacked for the first time since I have been on AOL since the early 90'.
