YouGov, Branded Surveys

In February, 2022, Populuslive rebranded itself as Y Live.

Y Live, part of Populus Limited, based in the UK, is a popular market research company. The panel was established in 2003 with a presence that has grown to 75 countries worldwide. The panel does research in the business, culture and politics sectors. Joining the community is simple - start by filling out a short and simple registration form.

Payment and Rewards

Earn £1.00 for Every 5 Minutes

Y Live gives its members the opportunity to earn £1.00 for every 5 minutes they spend on a survey. Depending on the length, most surveys pay between 1 to 3 points each (1 point = £1.00) and take usually about 5 to 15 minutes to finish. Please note that rewards will only be credited to your account once the survey is closed. This could range from one day to three months, depending on the research and nature of the study.

Cash in at £50.00

Once you have accumulated 50 points (£50.00) you are eligible to request a cheque or a BACS payment at the next payment date. The payment date is at the end of each month and if you requested a cheque, it will arrive within two weeks after this date. BACS payments typically take a few days to arrive. On average, Y Live issues 3000 monthly cheques to members who have reached the threshold for payment.

Survey Taking Experience

Survey Taking Details

Surveys with Y Live are designed to be interesting and varied on subject matter. Most members will receive about two survey invitations weekly to express their opinions and insights on a given topic. Participate early! Once survey space is filled, you will not be able to answer.

Monthly Prize Draws

Each time you screen out of a survey - which may happen if you do not meet the required participant profile, you will be automatically entered into the monthly prize draw of £250. The draw will take place on the second Monday of each calendar month and winners are notified within 4 weeks of the draw taking place.

Eligibility: Open to residents of the UK only. 16+

Great survey site

December 19, 2019 by monie from United Kingdom

I have been with populus for years now and they're a great site. I have just received another £50 cheque. The surveys are interesting and there is no need to track your points. When you reach 50 they will email you to tell you a cheque is on its way.
One of the best survey sites I've used so far.

Fantastic Surveys

December 19, 2019 by Geraldine from United Kingdom

I have been doing these Surveys a number of years. Really enjoy each Survey. It’s lovely to receive my £50 cheque when I have completed all the Surveys. Nice clear easy to answer questions. Interesting Surveys. Really like being paid by cheque. I can pay directly into my Bank.

Great survey site

December 19, 2019 by Anne from United Kingdom

This is a great site for surveys doesn't take long to get to 50 points = 50 pound I've recommended it to lots of friends and family

Genuine Survey Site with Genuine rewards

December 19, 2019 by Peter from United Kingdom

Brilliant site, not always successful, as you do not always meet the criteria to complete a survey. All in all provided you give honest full answers you are rewarded quite handsomely for your time and effort. Certainly the best at rewarding you. £1 per average 5 minutes is certainly a lot better than 20 p for anywhere between 10 and 25 minutes as with some. Very well pleased with Populuslive. Thank you

Payment received!

December 19, 2019 by Carl from United Kingdom

I'VE BEEN WITH THIS PANEL FOR A FEW MONTHS AND RECENTLY RECEIVED MY FIRST (TIMELY & PROMPTLY) £50 REWARD AUTOMATICALLY UPON REACHING IT.
THE SURVEYS SEEM TO BE OF THE HIGHEST REWARD FOR THE TIME SPENT COMPLETING THEM: AS A RULE THE MINIMUM IS £1 FOR 5 MINUTES, THE LONGEST I'VE COMPLETED SO FAR HAVE BEEN SEVERAL PAYMENTS OF £4 FOR 20 MINUTES INVESTED.
THE ONLY (VERY SLIGHT) DOWNSIDE IS THAT THE SURVEYS ARE IRREGULAR (FOR ME) IN THEIR FREQUENCY. THIS IS VERY POSSIBLY DUE TO THE POLITICAL OPINIONS.BEING GAUGED FOR THE MAJORITY OF SURVEYS, AS I RECEIVED QUITE A FEW DURING THE RECENT ELECTION PERIOD. I WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU SHOULD ACCEPT THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE SURVEYS DAILY, AND OCCASIONALLY NOT WEEKLY. DESPITE THIS SMALL CRITICISM I WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS SITE, DUE TO THE HIGHEST INCENTIVES AND AUTOMATIC REWARDS, THOUGH CASH PAYMENTS ARE MADE BY CHEQUE UPON REACHING THE £50 PAYOUT.
