If you are looking for an easy way to make a little extra cash, here are some companies that will pay you to take surveys fro the comfort of your own home. Now don’t expect to make millions, but you can earn extra money as well as great prizes. Plus, a lot of these companies throw your name in the hat for some crazy good cash prizes!
Here are 10 of the best survey companies out there:
1. Toluna. Not only can you earn money by taking surveys when you sign up for Toluna, but you can also test products before they become available on the market. It’s like being a VIP or an insider, but getting paid for it. I’ll get that red carpet ready. Ha!
2. Opinion Outpost. Earn cash when you take their surveys. Plus, you can get Amazon gift cards or even donate to your favorite charities! How awesome is that?!
3. Inbox Dollars: Get paid to read emails. Just read them. Seriously! I’m totally good at that. Plus you get $5 just for signing up! Not too shabby if you ask me.
4. MindsPay: You just evaluate products and services that interest you, give them your feedback and earn up to $75 per survey! Easy peasy.
5. Harris Poll Online: For every survey you successfully complete, you will receive points called HIpoints, which you will be able to exchange for awesome rewards after just doing a couple of surveys! Also, with every survey you complete you have a chance to enter their $10,000 sweepstakes!
6. InboxPays: In addition to surveys, you can participate in free trials and give feedback. You also get a $5 signup bonus! When you “cash out” your balance, you get paid directly to your PayPal account.
7. Ipsos I-Say: Pretty similar to the other survey companies, but they offer some great contests & prizes for dedicated members. So the more surveys you take, the more prizes they offer!
8. CashCrate: Do you know that companies are paying top-dollar to have users like you try their products and services for free? CashCrate passes that money on to you. Simply complete the free offers and get paid without spending a dime!

Mavis, thanks for sharing these. There sounds like some good opportunities. I am wondering if you have personally participated in any of these?

I just recently signed up for Free Eats and so far it seems awesome. They gave me $1 to sign up and a quarter each time they text me (twice so far to tell me about the referral program and to let me know about a survey I could take to get another dollar). The money is immediately put into your PayPal account. I don’t know how often they send offers to do surveys for money because I just signed up but I’m excited lol! If anyone is interested in checking it out and getting a dollar just for signing up here’s a link (Mavis please delete if this is not allowed)… http://ftr.io/r/3HCBN99

well MindsPay was a complete scam. Just phishing for your information and trying to give it to a ton of third parties and the “surveys” appear to actually be “participation required” things like signing up for a credit card or buying a subscription to some magazine. I’m really regretting giving them my info 🙁
