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

5/5

Payment options:

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

5/5

Payment options:

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

Clear!

4.5/5

Payment options:

Scrimpr review: Clear! is a new receipt scanning and survey app that offers short £0.60 surveys and pays £0.05 or £0.10 when you scan your receipts. 

Earning potential: £10 / month.

YouGov

4.5/5

Payment options:

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.

The main UK survey apps I use

Even though the apps above pay the best rates for completing surveys, I mostly use Attapoll, YouGov, Prime Opinion, and Qmee. These apps almost always have surveys available, so you can take one anytime you have a spare moment without waiting for an invitation. While you may get screened out more often because the surveys are less targeted, you can minimize this by completing your profile questions and choosing surveys that match your demographics (often indicated by a star rating).

Attapoll

4/5

Payment options:

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.

Five Surveys

3.8/5

Payment options:

Five Surveys review: Five Surveys is a survey app that pays £5 when you complete 5 surveys. Some people here seem to hate it, whilst others seem to like it. And there are rumours that it slows your progress when you hit £4.

I signed up a while ago. It screen you out of most surveys, but if you stick to ones that have high ratings (there aren’t many), then all seems well.

Earning potential: ~£1 -2 / day unless you really go for it!

Qmee

4/5

Payment options:

* Bonus only applied when signing up using a desktop broswer (does not work if on mobile and downloading the Qmee app).

Eureka

3/5

Payment options:

* 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

4/5

Payment options:

* Get a mystery crate worth $0.05-$250 when you sign up with the link above or use bonus code: tightaswhat.

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

3/5

Payment options:

* Look out for 3x Points promotions on the various offerwalls.

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.
