There are plenty of online survey panels out there who use electronic banking services such as PayPal<\/a> to move money from a survey site, to you, the survey taker. But not everyone has these accounts, and some people simply prefer getting paid by check. Find out which survey panels issue payment checks to their panelists.<\/p>\n

» Skip ahead to view survey sites who pay by check<\/a>\n

How it works<\/h2>\n

When you sign up as a participant with an online survey website<\/a>, you are often given a choice for how you’d like to receive your earnings to get paid. It’s common to be able to select from items listed in a rewards catalogue, or to be able to simply request your earnings in the form of cash. Some survey panels offer the option of mailing a payment check to their participants.<\/p>\n

The upside<\/h2>\n

Who doesn’t like receiving checks in the mail? Getting a check from an online survey panel is essentially the same as cash. Simply deposit it into your bank account, and you’re good to go! As an added bonus, most banks won’t charge you any additional fees to deposit a check.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the biggest upside is the freedom to spend your check however you please. With cash in hand, you decide where and how you’d like to spend it. This gives you more freedom than being constrained to spending your earnings at a particular store, on specific merchandise, etc.<\/p>\n

The downside<\/h2>\n

The biggest downside is the extra time you\u2019ll have to wait to receive your earnings. Unlike online payment systems which can be instant, receiving your check in the mail will take longer due to two main factors: someone has to actually administer, or “cut” the check, and the postal service will take a few days (or more if you\u2019re located overseas) to get it to you.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t a big deal if you\u2019re not in a hurry to receive your money, but keep these factors in mind if your check is taking longer than usual to receive.<\/p>\n

Receiving checks in a foreign currency<\/h2>\n

If you live outside of the USA especially, there is a chance that you may receive some of your checks in foreign funds (typically US dollars). Since many online survey panels are based in the US, but operate panels in places like Canada, Australia and the UK, any checks you receive could be issued in US funds.<\/p>\n

There isn’t anything extra you have to do \u2013 even if you deposit the check into your bank account that\u2019s currently in Canadian dollars, British pounds, Euros, etc., your bank will automatically convert it into your local currency. More than anything, it just makes it a little confusing to figure out the exact value of the surveys you\u2019ve taken, when you cash your check for what ends up being an odd amount.<\/p>\n

One such example of this is SurveySavvy<\/a>. They are a perfectly legit site where you can get paid by check, but no matter where in the world you are located, they will issue your payment in US dollars.<\/div>\n

Who offers payment by check?<\/h2>\n

Currently on SurveyPolice, some of the top rated legitimate survey panels that pay by check<\/span> are:<\/p>\n

\"leo<\/a>LEO Surveys<\/a>
\nTake paid surveys on your computer or using the LEO app and request a payment check when your account balance reaches just $20.00. Focus groups are also offered.<\/p>\n

\"surveysavvy<\/a>SurveySavvy<\/a>
\nTake interesting online surveys and request a payment check with as little as $1.00 in your account. Surveys always pay in cash.<\/p>\n

\"surveysavvy<\/a>Savvy Connect<\/a>
\nDownload the web browser plugin to passively earn income and request a payment check with the very low payment minimum of $1.00 in your account.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong> Although Pinecone Research<\/a> (a survey site that offers $3.00 for each completed survey) used to offer payment checks, they no longer do. You can cash out your earnings via bank transfer or gift card with the site.<\/div>\n
