YouGov, Branded Surveys

In February, 2022, Populuslive rebranded itself as Y Live.

Y Live, part of Populus Limited, based in the UK, is a popular market research company. The panel was established in 2003 with a presence that has grown to 75 countries worldwide. The panel does research in the business, culture and politics sectors. Joining the community is simple - start by filling out a short and simple registration form.

Payment and Rewards

Earn £1.00 for Every 5 Minutes

Y Live gives its members the opportunity to earn £1.00 for every 5 minutes they spend on a survey. Depending on the length, most surveys pay between 1 to 3 points each (1 point = £1.00) and take usually about 5 to 15 minutes to finish. Please note that rewards will only be credited to your account once the survey is closed. This could range from one day to three months, depending on the research and nature of the study.

Cash in at £50.00

Once you have accumulated 50 points (£50.00) you are eligible to request a cheque or a BACS payment at the next payment date. The payment date is at the end of each month and if you requested a cheque, it will arrive within two weeks after this date. BACS payments typically take a few days to arrive. On average, Y Live issues 3000 monthly cheques to members who have reached the threshold for payment.

Survey Taking Experience

Survey Taking Details

Surveys with Y Live are designed to be interesting and varied on subject matter. Most members will receive about two survey invitations weekly to express their opinions and insights on a given topic. Participate early! Once survey space is filled, you will not be able to answer.

Monthly Prize Draws

Each time you screen out of a survey - which may happen if you do not meet the required participant profile, you will be automatically entered into the monthly prize draw of £250. The draw will take place on the second Monday of each calendar month and winners are notified within 4 weeks of the draw taking place.

Eligibility: Open to residents of the UK only. 16+

Failed to pay

September 10, 2022 by Gabriel from Nigeria

I have reached the required threshold since months ago, and as been deducted and the money hasn't gotten into my bank account.

They tell you that 81% of the way through a survey means you don’t qualify

August 10, 2022 by Ben from United Kingdom

This company thinks it is acceptable to treat users with contempt, taking their answers without paying and stealing their money for giving perfectly valid answers simply because they do not like them. This is not the behaviour of a reputable honest professional organisation.

Time it takes

April 21, 2021 by Jon from United Kingdom

It's been nearly four months since I had notification of a survey and I still need 3 at max to make my 50.00. I don't know why this site is given such high reviews, you'd need to complete over 20 survey to cash out - at this rate it will take you 6 months or more.

Where's my payment

July 23, 2019 by Terence from United Kingdom

Still waiting for £50 in respect of surveys completed in June. When I queried this non-payment on 18 July I received an email apologising for delay but assuring me cheque had now been sent. Have now requested that funds be remitted by bank transfer no later that 26 July. Anyone else experiencing same delays and rubbish about "cheque's in the post" ?

Used to be Good

March 13, 2019 by Daisy from United Kingdom

Things were ok when I started doing surveys for this company but I'm afraid they have gone down hill.
