The best survey apps for UK users - survey apps that pay the highest rates
I have listed the best UK survey apps in this initial section. These survey apps offer the highest payout rates relative to time invested. These survey apps also typically have lower disqualification rates — with most providing targeted surveys and never disqualifying users at all. However, because the surveys are targeted, these survey apps tend to have fewer survey opportunities. In practice, that usually means it can take a while to reach any cash out thresholds. Nonetheless, I recommend using these apps as profitable ‘slow-burners’ that everyone who likes earning with surveys should always have on the go.
Amazon Shopper Panel
Payment options:
- Short, 4 question surveys
- Surveys pay £0.50 each
- Amazon gift card rewards
- Get £5/month for submitting 10 receipts.

Scrimpr review: Amazon Shopper Panel is actually a receipt scanning app. It pays up to £5 a month in Amazon vouchers to users who submit 10 in-store shopping receipts (£0.50 each).
But the Shopper panel also has short surveys that pay £0.50 each as well. There is usually a wait list to join, but this is very easy month if you get on the panel.
Earning potential: ~£5-10 per month.
Google Opinion Rewards
Payment options:
- Short (<1-minute) surveys.
- Minimum withdrawal is £0.01 on Android.
- Cash to PayPal (iOS) or Google Play (Android)
- Submit receipts for more rewards
Read more
Scrimpr review: Google Opinion Rewards is available on both Android and iOS devices. It offers short surveys about places you have visited or products you have bought/searched for.
Opinion Rewards is probably one of the quickest-paying apps around. But Android users are forced to withdraw via Google Play Credit. Goolge Play credit can be swapped for cash via TapJoy on Freecash.
Earning potential: ~£5 / month
IPSOS iSay
Payment options:
- Cash payment (PayPal)
- Range of shopping vouchers (The Global Gift Card)
- Mobile-friendly surveys
- £5 payment threshold
Read more
Scrimpr review: I’ve been a member of IPSOS iSay for years. iSay email out survey invitations. But you can also check the app and the website to see if there are any questions to answer.
iSay has a low withdrawal threshold of £5. But sometimes it does send you on a loop of qualifying questions. At my peak I was earning a £10 voucher every month.
Earning potential: £10 / month.
YouGov
Payment options:
- Never screens you out
- Surveys reported in the news!
- Cash payment (bank transfer) or vouchers.
- £50 payment threshold
Read more
Scrimpr review: YouGov is probably the most famous UK survey apps. Their surveys are usually political in nature, and results are often reported in the news. Invitations are emailed so there is no need to check the site.
YouGov is a slow burner with a few surveys available per week, but YouGov provides a way to boost your balance by connecting your TV apps and sharing your viewing history.
Earning potential: a £50 payment ~3-6 months.
Norstat Panel
Payment options:
- Cash payment (bank transfer) or vouchers.
- Small payment if screened out
- £5 payment threshold
- Surveys quite infrequent
Pure Profile
Payment options:
- Rarely screens you out
- Cash payment (bank transfer) or vouchers.
- Mobile-friendly surveys (has an app)
- £10 payment threshold
Paid Focus Group
Payment options:
- Cash payment (PayPal) or Love2Shop vouchers
- Same surveys as Paid Product Testing
- £10 payment threshold
- Annoying points system
Paid Product Testing
Payment options:
- Rarely screens you out
- Same surveys as Paid Product Testing
- £10 payment threshold
- Annoying points system
The main UK survey apps I use
Even though the apps above pay the best rates for completing surveys, I actually do most of my mobile surveys on Attapoll, YouGov, Prime Opinion, and Qmee. This is because these apps almost always have surveys available. No need to wait to be invited, you can just try and take a survey any time you have a spare moment. Because they are not as targeted, you will get screened out of the surveys more often. But you can minimise that by completing all of the profile questions and trying surveys that match your demographics (on most this is indicated by the star rating of each survey).
Attapoll
Payment options:
- Endless choice of surveys
- Cash payment (PayPal, Skrill or Revolut)
- £2.50 payment threshold
- Some surveys are very low paying.
Read more
Attapoll review: Attapoll is one of the oldest survey apps available (founded in 2016). The app is very basic and could do with an update. But the low cash-out threshold makes this one of the best survey apps to use.
Attapoll offers surveys from a large range of survey providers. Most are about consumer spending. But there is the occasional interesting survey. It also has an almost never-ending list of opportunities.
Earning potential: ~£1-2 per day.
Prime Opinion
Payment options:
- £1 minimum withdrawal
- Cash payment (PayPal)
- Over 200 vouchers to choose from
- Pays for disqualifications
Read more
Prime Opinion review: Prime Opinion is a new survey site with a mobile-optimised website. It suggests surveys for you based on your profile and gives a good indication of the time they take to complete.
Since it’s new I have only earned £5 from the site, but the withdrawal threshold is from as little as £1 (the first withdrawal amount depends on which sign-up promotion you choose).
Earning potential: ~£1 -2 / day unless you really go for it!
Qmee
Payment options:
- £0.01 payment threshold
- Cash payment (PayPal, Skrill or Revolut)
- £2.50 payment threshold
- Endless surveys, but lots of screen outs.
* Bonus only applied when signing up using a desktop broswer (does not work if on mobile and downloading the Qmee app).
Eureka
Payment options:
- £1 minimum withdrawal
- Payment via hundreds of vouchers
- £4.00 payment threshold
- Endless surveys, but lots of screen outs.
* Get a bonus £0.80 starter survey when you apply the bonus code: TA23L5 in your profile settings.
Get-paid-to apps that also offer surveys
Anyone that knows me from r/beermoneyuk will know that I love signing up for apps and services for cash. And I love playing games for cash. The apps that offer these promotions are known as Get-Paid-To (or GPT) sites. Most of them have apps, and most of them also have some good surveys available. I tend to stick to the surveys from YourSurveys and CPX Research. For a more complete list of GPT sites, check out the Scrimpr Get-Paid-To Website Megalist.
Freecash
Payment options:
- $0.50 (~£0.40) payment threshold
- Cash payment, vouchers or crypto redemption
- Excellent sign up offers available
- Some survey partners are rubbish (Pollfish)
Read more
Freecash surveys review: Freecash is one of the largest Get-Paid-To sites around. It is also one of the highest paying. I usually use sites like Freecash for signing up to things (it isn’t very good for games).
But Freecash also provides access to CPX Surveys and a few other survey router companies. I occasionally check CPX for high-paying surveys and do them when they appear. But avoid Pollfish at all costs.
Earning potential: lots if you sign up to things.
ySense
Payment options:
- Usually has the best game offers
- Often has 3x promotions on sign up offers
- Can boost earnings by 16%
- £10 redemption threshold
* Look out for 3x Points promotions on the various offerwalls.
Read more
ySense Surveys review: ySense is the international version of Inbox Pounds. But, just like Swagbucks, it is available to UK users. Weirdly, it shows credits as “dollars”. But each of these dollars are equivalent to £1.
The best thing about ySense is that it allows users to boost their earnings (from all sources) by completing a daily checklist. The checklist includes completing a couple of surveys and some sign up offers.
Earning potential: lots if you play the games.
