2 Websites Where You Can REALLY Get Paid To Take Surveys and Tests

If you’ve read a post about making money online, you’ve probably heard about Survey Junkie. I signed up for Survey Junkie in October 2021 and in that time I made…. $7.00.

I’m here to tell you about two different websites that will ACTUALLY make you some money.

1. UserTesting
   The first website I want to suggest is UserTesting. You can sign up for an account on UserTesting and start taking surveys pretty soon after. When you create your account, you select which devices you can use to take surveys. Depending on what devices you own, you can take surveys that will check whether you’re qualified for the test.
   I have been on the platform for a week and have already made $80 with very little effort. Most of the tests I have completed have been about $10 for 3–5 minutes of my time. You do need to have a working microphone for most of these as you will be speaking out loud while (usually) reviewing a webpage or graphic. This is totally legit — and within a week, you see the funds deposited into your PayPal account.
2. Respondent
   Respondent has been the most ‘lucrative’ of the two — even though I have only participated in two different tests. These usually take more time and you may have to meet with a person through Zoom, but they also pay more. In the week that I’ve been on the platform, I have made $180 — for about an hour of my time.
   You are allowed a certain amount of screener applications every 24 hours and if selected, you get an email to schedule your ‘interview.’ Both of the interviews I did were surrounding User Experience for a website prototype. Within a few days of completing the interview, you get a deposit into your PayPal account (minus a 5% fulfillment fee).
   One bit of advice I have to get selected for testing is to have an updated profile and connect your LinkedIn as well!

Here are some of the types of participants that are being interviewed through Respondent:

1. Video Game Designers — $400
2. Video Game Software Engineers — $400
3. Tech Professionals — $300
4. Advertising Professionals — $275
5. Native Japanese Speakers — $225
6. Small Business Owners — $200
7. Professional Maintenance Workers — $160
8. Hotel/Spa Massage Therapists — $175
9. Self-Employed Individuals (Full-Time) — $150
10. Individuals That Work/Worked In Online Content Moderation — $125
11. Mothers — $125

….and there are so much more! Don’t miss out on this easy money — I wouldn’t be writing about it if it wasn’t actually worth it.
