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+

Just found this site.
I've been with SurveySavvy for about 5 years now.
Can tell that I've never had negative experience with them. Well, sometimes a survey may crash... or be not accessible...
But they resend invitations and fix issues.

What's more important for me they still keep the cash option (unlike MySurvey).

My quick opinions:
Yes, you have to take a survey to avoid its expiration (if it's particulary popular and pays well enough).
Yes, you may be screened out.
Yes, you get paid.
Yes, you get decent number of survey invitations.

No, you won't get rich with them.
No, my money never 'expired'.
No, screening part is not insanely long. If you don't qualify you know it in a couple of minutes (though I wish they ask demographic questions _after_ real screening ones).

redeemed for a $3 check which was sent within the normal 4-6 weeks for processing. after depositing said check , it bounced and they were very prompt to cover the check and the returned check fee from my bank.

However, all they did was recredit my account for the sum and i had to request payment of that amount with another 4-6 weeks processing time. It has been 7 weeks and ive yet to see the check which is costing me the opportunity cost of the returned check fee that was looted from my account because their check went bouncy bouncy

Joined in Feb '11, 2 months later I've had 2 or 3 surveys and didn't qualify for any. Is this site for real?

Good reviews, bad reviews, recommended yes, recommended no! Most of the yes recommendations are from 2009 but there are some more recent ones too. Since nobody's said anything for a while I will :-P I've had jack from these dudes but I'll be patient for a little while longer. They said their "working on matters to get more surveys"! Working on "matters" - What "matters" is "surveys" when you're running a "survey company"... if only they could figure that out!!

I have done pretty good with surveysavvy for a couple of years now. Normally at least once or twice a week I get a 15-20 dollar survey and qualify for quite a few. While they are not as good as Opinion Outpost or as steady I have collected some money from them. To this day I have completed 37 surveys for 111, ,miscellaneous for 34 for a grand total of 145.
