I've been taking surveys with Springboard America for maybe two years now. It feels like there are a few more opportunities from them in my inbox in the last two months.
The surveys are well-designed and the rate of completion is high. Mos of their surveys take 5 to 15 minutes to complete, and they pay usually .75 cents to $1.75.
The main disadvantage is they pay through Paylution if you want to cash out in good old cash, and it's quite slow (over two months)- and more complicated than I think it should be.
The site would be so much better if they paid through PayPal.

So, I've just a while ago joined them. The surveys are usually interesting to me, so at least you don't get bored to death. I qualify more than I don't and the surveys are too long. They usually tell you ahead of time about how long it'll take, which is pretty much accurate. However, my main pet peeve is that you have to wait until $50 to cashout. I only have about $10 so far, so with most surveys being around .50 - $1.50, it may take quite a while to be able to test out their cashout process. All in all, not a bad panel, just a bit slow...

I have been a member of Springboard for many years and it was a decent site. Not lots of surveys, but good, simple, short and simple surveys that paid fairly well. Now all of a sudden but for a while do not get any email invitations at all, period and when I go to the site they are not there either. I do not know what happened. Hated to see them so worthless. I still have points and hoping to be able to do surveys again someday. I email support and they tell me nothing is wrong. Something is wrong. Keeping my fingers crossed I guess.\

Update: My first review for Maru Springboard America was on 7-7-2019. I want to update this review now on 1-3-24. Now I am getting email invitations, not really often but several a week. I have not tried cashing out recently but do not expect any problem now. I do not remember how this issue was resolved either. The site is beautiful and pretty simple. So far so good.

you take surveys for cash gift cards to just about everywhere. it starts a little slow but then starts to increase and if you're in the right demographic for the survey, you'll get them two to three times a week at $.75 to $.50 a survey. Once you get $50 on your acct, you can cash it in.Surveys take 10 - 20 minutes.The longer they are the more they pay.
