REDEEMING REWARDS

checkmark No points system
Accrue a balance of $8.00 (or 4 GBP) in your account, receive a PayPal payment within 48 hours of request and sometimes even instantly. $10 USD (£5) minimum account balance required for Amazon vouchers.

Register for Paid Surveys and Cash Out With PayPal or Amazon

Crowdology offers cash for each survey completed. 5 minute surveys pay $0.50 and after a balance of $8.00 (or £4 in the UK) is accrued in your account, you can withdraw your earnings to your PayPal account. Alternatively, choose to receive an Amazon voucher. Surveys pay anywhere from $0.40 - $10 each.

Types of Surveys Offered

Online surveys on everyday topics, brand-name household products and current issues. Crowdology stresses that their surveys are not boring!

Survey Lengths

The surveys themselves are quite short, ranging from 2 to 20 minutes in length and award cash upon successful completion - there are no complex points systems to worry about as cash is awarded each time a survey is finished.

Sweepstakes

Sweepstakes are held sporadically and usually upon registering to the Crowdology panel. You can also be entered into sweepstakes by sharing Crowdology with your friends via email invite.

Some of the prizes Crowdology members have won include Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Cancelling Headphones, Spotify Premium Subscriptions and ASOS Vouchers, just to name a few.

Redemption Process

In order to withdraw from your account, you will need to have at least $8.00 in your Crowdology account (or £4 in the UK) as well as a PayPal account to transfer your Crowdology funds to. This company does not pay out rewards via check. The time between the request and the balance landing in your PayPal account is on average 48 hours. Also, if you use Amazon Payment, it could take up to 4 weeks before you see your money.

waste of time

May 7, 2020 by carol from United States

I will be dropping this site very soon. I do get a survey from them a couple times a week but never seem to qualify

awful

Really bad site, virtually no surveys and any you do get pay a pittance.

Worst survey site

September 27, 2019 by Trey from United States

It is one of the worst survey site i took 3 hours trying to qualify for a survey and i didnt qualify for one survey. if you think i am lying try it. In the beginning it works - after first payment everything doesnt qualify survey.

Not impressed, started well but ...

September 8, 2016 by Leo from United Kingdom

I'm done with this company, despite their nice Speaker answering questions here on the Survey Police blog, hence 1 entire star!

Surveys don't have a ref.no and when they are rewarded weeks later (as some say at the end) you are not sure which entry it is, and with Cint "Corrections", you really don't know where you stand after having waited that long.
And I'm tired to chasing up missing incentives! Or to keep a mile long log!
A survey reference and a better survey statement would save respondents time!

Do not believe what they say that "most rewards vary from £0.40 up to £10", in 2 years once had £2.08 but nothing bigger, a few times just over £1, the majority £0.16 £0.24 ... then £0.32 then £0.40 or just over.

I also had enough of their misleading survey timing (2 min survey that clearly last 8, or 5 min that clearly was meant to last 15...).

Paypal fees... Another way to pay less respondents, do Crowdology employees pay a fee when they get their wages? They/Cint just pass on the fees to us!
First I clarified this point with Paypal, it is the company choice; Second, other companies do not pass this fee to respondents when you get your paypal payment, so it is possible.
But Amazon reward takes 1 month!?! It is a e-code!! If other companies can deliver it almost instantaneously, why can't they?

Long screenings and third parties surveys (that all seem collecting info before disqualifying you) do not give Crowdology ground for a more positive review.

Rare surveys.

January 6, 2016 by Matt from United Kingdom

It's rare I get surveys from this site and when I do I am often screened out and do get the impression they are affiliated with other sites and that's why i'm often screened out.
