Step 1 – Select a survey panel.

There are numerous survey sites online and choosing your options can be quite overwhelming. Take time to research online and look for survey sites with good reviews. Although there’s no limit to how many surveys you can join, you can sign up for 3-4 panels to begin with.

Step 2 – Register

It's really easy to join survey panels. An online registration form will be provided to you, including some simple questions, such as your name, email address, date of birth, etc. By enabling new users to participate using their Facebook, Twitter, or Google™ accounts, certain websites make the process even simpler.

Step 3 – Take surveys

Once you complete your registration, you’ll start receiving survey invites. Surveys will either be sent by email or via text messages inviting you to complete tasks if you have requested for surveys to be sent to your phone.

Your survey earnings will depend on several variables, including the number of individuals expected to qualify for the survey, the duration of the survey, how quickly the client needs responses, and more. Remember, the fewer the people that qualify, the better the panel will pay.

Step 4 – Get paid

It's advisable to log into your survey panel account to track your account balance when you complete a survey. Not only do you want to make sure that surveys are correctly credited to you, but it's satisfying to see your account balance grow so that you can claim your first reward.

You can see the account balance reflected in terms of a dollar amount or a number of points, based on whether or not the panel uses a points system. You will be entitled to collect the first payment or your first gift card when you meet the required minimum points in your account.
