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+

Professional site. They answered me rapidly to fix my issue :)

August 30, 2019 by Sam from United States

UPDATE 8/29/2019
Lying about the check's in the mail
Lied and told me that my two checks were sent out on Friday August 23, 2019. From where they are to where I live, those checks should have been to me no later than Tuesday August 27, 2019.All it takes is 2 days for a check to get to me because I checked with the Post Office. I contacted them and the "check's in the mail" lie again. I'm getting sick and tired of them lying and trying to scam people out of their money. I sent an email to them and told them that I want my money in my hands by Friday 8/30/2019 or I'm filing a complaint with the BBB and the CA Attorney General's office. Survey Savvy needs to be called on the carpet/and or shut down. In the modern era, they're sending out checks to people and not using Paypal. That's a lot of BS. Then lying to people about sending out their checks. It needs to stop.

UPDATE 10/31/2018: Savvy Connect started malfunctioning after September 6, 2018. I contacted Survey Savvy. It took 3 days for them to get back tome. The kept asking the same identical thing over and over again. I kept telling them what was wrong. Savvy Connect had the red check instead of the green one. Days would go by and I'd get the same formulaic email with instructions to do what I've done over and over again. This went on for the better part of the month. I asked for a call and the person I spoke with had attitude. Then he said he would sent me an email with other instructions on how to fix the problem. I received a blank email. a day later. he responded with another email with the same instructions I had gotten before. Then on September 29th, Savvy Connect suddenly started working again. I connected them about my $5.00 and they told me that I hadn't transmitted all month and started lecturing me about not transmitting. The absolute gall. Your app malfunctions and you don't help get it back online and then it suddenly goes back online at the end of the end of the month, how suspicious and you lecture me about not transmitting. An ethical company would have admitted it was their app malfunctioning, because the website changed during this time, and paid. But not Survey Savvy. Nothing is EVER their fault and they will refuse to pay you.


When I first signed up, I installed Savvy Connect and every month on the 5th, I received my $5.00, cashed out and the next week received a check. Never qualified for too many surveys, but at least some consultation was I'd get five bucks. Since about February, they've become later and later. I called in March and they said that the checks would be mailed after the 10th or 11th. They were mailed more like the 20th. With that Savvy Connect, we were supposed to get it every month on a timely basis. Now, it's 11th of May and I contacted them and got a very generic response that said "Thank you for reaching out to the SavvyConnect support team.

Project Gold credits for the month of April have not been credited yet. Please note that there is not a set date on when the incentives are credited into your account. As with all projects we ask that you allow 2-6 weeks after completion for your account to be credited.
We apologize for any inconvenience.

Then I got a directive that in order to get paid, you must attempt all surveys whether you qualify or not. Some of us do this in our spare time to collect a few bucks. Not everyone is sitting up taking surveys all day. Then I looked on the my dashboard and it shows that 4 days the Savvy Connect didn't transmit which is a lie. I smell a company that might have been a quasi-legit, but now has gone fullblown scam.

It might be time to contact our state's Attorney General. Don't go anywhere near this site, they cannot be trusted. I looked online and I'm not the only one having this issue.

They pay and it's a great site. They send out products for you to try and pay you for that. I have gotten many checks from them by mail. A great survey to do to earn money but payment takes a while to come.

July 9, 2019 by Christopher from Zambia

It has a wonderful dashboard that is easy to use and pays on time for every completed survey.

May 20, 2019 by Earnest from United States

This survey company is great because u can cash out as little as a dollar quickly but the down side to the company is that they only provide checks & no other payment method such as PayPal, bank transfers, etc.
