I totally get the frustration! Some paid survey sites can be a hit or miss, especially with those annoying disqualifications halfway through. A few sites that tend to have better reputations are Octopus Group, PureProfile, and Humaniti. They seem to have lower disqualification rates and pay a bit more per survey. Swagbucks and Toluna are also popular, but the payout per survey might be lower, so they’re better for earning small amounts over time.

I used to do a bit of home testing – anyone do this that could recommend a site? Thanks for the recommendations for survey sites.

Purkle and octopus are good.

I am a part of Mint Surveys and Red Planet which give you Qantas points instead of cash.

I do Purkle as recommended from this site. In terms of being half way through, I think you’re best to actually keep the web page open when half way through the survey and I’ve found I’m able to come back to it and start again where I left off.

i only do my octopus, they seem Ok compared to others and you can opt for cash instead of giftcards

I don’t actually do paid surveys but I do the surveys for supermarkets when they give you bonus reward points which helps towards money off shopping.

My go to sites are purkle and octopus group. Unfortunately all sites will have surveys that you don’t qualify for it’s just part of the process. Possibly also look into market research groups such as Q and A market research and chitchat research. Some great opportunities come up with these to make some $$

A lot of the times surveys cut you out after a few questions is because you don’t meet their target demographic. Just part of the process. I tried it for a while but it’s quite tedious.

I use to do so many surveys but found some are better then others I really like Purkle and Octopus they seem to always give you lots of surveys

I am a member of a number but find that Livetribe and pureprofile are the best.

I have used many different survey sites over the last 10 years, they are great! I’ve received thousands of dollars in money, vouchers and prizes plus the opportunity to trial some amazing products. Highly recommend giving it a go.

I used to do Pureprofile, but since they changed at the start of the year I haven’t been getting any surveys. You used ti get 5 cents for screen out but this appears to have gone. Octopus and purple offer better points and $ per survey.

I use Pure profile and have redeemed hundreds over the last 3 years and have also been selected for focus groups (paid $150 for 1.5 hours) and sent some amazing thigs to try and then report back on

Thanks for asking this question. I’ve been doing Purkle (through Mouth of Mums) and Life Points. There are a few listed here that I am going to check out too

Purkle all the way!!

My go tos are Valued Opinions, MyView (now Ipsos I think), Survey Village. To a lesser extent Mint survey, LIveTribe. Also consider eRewards for Virgin points and Rep Planet Research for Qantas points. Farron Research can be good for focus groups. Less regularly but higher rewards for effort. Also Realtime Research. Good luck!

Field Agent, Street Bees, Social Soup, Home Tester Club, My Askable. Not all survey sites some are freebies if you do a review on the product. These are the main ones I use

I like Octopus Group and Pure Profile the best.

I do a couple of different survey sites and they pay pretty good. I get physical Wish cards from one and e-gift cards from the others which you can spend at different places but I choose Coles and Woolworths to help with groceries. If you have the time it’s great. Valued Opinions, Mint, Ipsos I say, and I also do one that combines a guessing game as well and if you guess the correct number you get 5,000 points which is $50. It’s Competions.com.au. So good luck if you try these but there’s heaps on the App Store too just read the reviews before you start any.
