Survey Junkie is an online platform that connects its 20 million+ members to research studies in the form of online surveys from big brands and market research companies. Members can earn their choice of cash or gift cards in exchange for their participation. Over $55,000 is paid out to members every day.

It is available to residents of the USA, UK, Canada and Australia.

Earn up to $130 Per Month

With Survey Junkie, you can participate in online surveys on your computer or using the app in order to earn rewards including cash paid to your PayPal account (or gift cards and bank transfers in the USA). For prospective members wondering how much they can make from Survey Junkie, the site advertises that members who complete four or more surveys daily and can earn as much as $130 monthly. Complete three or more surveys daily to earn as much as $100 per month. Creating an account is free and can be done via your Facebook or Google account.

New Member Sign Up Bonuses

New members of SurveyJunkie receive 25 free points immediately after signing up and an additional 25 points for confirming their e-mail address. Fill out the profilers to earn 10-50 points per profiler. Joining, clicking the confirmation link in your e-mail and filling out the general profiler is worth 100 points in total ($1.00). With a minimum cash out of $5.00, this is 20% of the way to an initial reward!

Survey Lengths

The average length of time it takes to complete a survey with Survey Junkie is 15 minutes. The estimated time for completions is stated on survey invitations (or in the app). New surveys are available daily.

Short Point Approval Times

Once you take a survey, it may take up to 24 hours to approve your points. Points do not expire as long as you are an active member. In order to be considered 'active', simply log in to your Survey Junkie account and complete a survey within a 12 month period.

Earn Cash for Completing Surveys

With just $5 worth of survey earnings (500 points), you can 'cash out' your points balance for two cash options:

• PayPal - receive an instant PayPal payment by selecting this rewards option. Note that you must redeem your full points balance when selecting PayPal for reward payments.
• Bank transfer (USA only) - If you live in the USA, you can choose to receive a bank transfer payment. Bank transfers are handled by a third-party partner and take 3-4 business days to complete and are a safe way to receive your money.

Choose a Gift Card Instead

If you live in the USA, you can also choose to redeem your points for e-gift cards. e-gift cards are available in denominations of $5, $10, $15, $20, $25 and $50. You can choose from major retailers including Amazon, Target, Walmart, Sephora, Groupon, Apple and Starbucks. You can also select a pre-paid Visa card.

Earn Points for Disqualifications

If you attempt to complete a survey but get disqualified before you're able to finish it, Survey Junkie will still credit your account with 2-3 points. Payouts for surveys themselves vary and will depend on the length of the survey, how difficult it is to qualify, as well as other criteria.

To increase your chances of qualifying for a survey, look for surveys that have green diamonds. These indicate surveys that you are most likely to be able to successfully complete. Red diamonds on the other hand, may carry higher payouts, but will have the lowest chance of being able to complete.

Complete Profile Surveys to Earn Points and Get Better Matched

Survey Junkie has numerous profile surveys available to members in their account dashboards. Complete these profilers to earn 10-50 points for each completion, and benefit from being better matched to future surveys.

Survey Junkie Awards

Unlock badges by reaching key milestones such as completing profiles, tutorials, taking your first survey, reaching your first 300 points, etc. Each badge completion awards anywhere from 5-10 points and can be found under the 'Awards' link located at the top of your account dashboard.

Survey Junkie App

Survey Junkie has a mobile app available on Google Play, for Android phone users and in the Apple store for iOS users. The app functions similarly to the website in that you can take surveys, check your available points balance, and redeem rewards. The Survey Junkie app will notify you when new surveys become available, which can be helpful in reducing the chances of being disqualified from a survey if you are one of the first respondents to complete a survey.

BBB Accreditation

Survey Junkie is a member of the Better Business Bureau of Glendale, California and maintains a solid BBB rating. They have hundreds of reviews posted on the BBB's website, most of which are positive and amount to a star rating that's between 4-5 stars.

Survey Junkie Pulse

Survey Junkie Pulse is a browser extension (you can install it via the mobile app, too) US residents can install in order to receive exclusive surveys that are based on your browsing activity. You'll receive a notification of new surveys directly in your browser, as soon a survey becomes available. SJ Pulse is designed to connect you with surveys based on your browsing interests and does not collect personal information such as passwords, emails, credit card information, etc.

Keep the extension enabled for 30 days on your desktop computer, and receive bonus points credited to your Survey Junkie account! As an added bonus, SJ Pulse users may also receive access to exclusive surveys that SJ Opinion users may not receive.

Is Survey Junkie Legit

Survey Junkie is not a scam and is considered to be a safe and legitimate survey panel.

I have been with Survey Junkie many years and have cashed out a few times without any problems. I have not cashed out in a while and went to cash out today.

Survey Junkie now requires identity verification using your cell phone in order to cash out. I was given no other options.

I was unable to do it. I am not good with QR codes or text messages

I do Survey Junkie on a computer only.

I have had to open up a ticket and also sent. an email. Today is Saturday so it means that I will probably not hear back for. a few days and who know when I will get my money or how.

Just to let you know that it may not be that easy to cash out using Survey Junkie.

They are better so I gave them more stars at this time..You give them your honest answers and read everything correctly do the surveys they say 100% complete..and they say click here..instead of points you move on to another. move on to another. And not PAID..You have to fight for every point..They ask survey number but once you do it..it is not there anymore. frustration often..!!

Beware of this panel. When you get ready for your first cash-out, all of a sudden they spring this verification thing on you. They want a photo of an ID card and a selfie sent on an app that they provide. The app does not work right. Then, upon contacting customer support, they email you and say the only way to verify without the photos is to get a call from them. Give them the number....no call comes. I emailed them the photos of myself and the ID and they said not acceptable. So, in short, they can call you but you cannot call them at the number they provide. They cannot accept documentation by email, it has to be through their "app" which does not work. Who runs a business like that??!!!!!!!! Everything about this site screams "RUN...RUN.." Told them to keep the lousy five bucks and deleted my account. Proceed with this company at your own risk...........you have been warned!!

I have been taking surveys with them for years, all of a sudden they are making me Verify my acct to redeem my Points. But the site they send you to asks for your email address and then denies access stating its not a valid email address. The site also wants you to sign up with them.

Be leary of this one guys. When I finally achieved 5.00 to cash out, I had to take photos of robot and back of my driver's license and then a face video and submit. Of course it was rejected and my complaint email wont get answered until up to 5 days.
So..... It is what it is.
