General Questions about Online Paid Surveys and The Survey Circle

Why are survey companies willing to pay me for filling out paid surveys?

The answer to this is fairly straightforward… it is cheap for them!! You have probably had exposure to those annoying telephone paid surveys. They call you at odd times, take up your valuable time and then don't pay you for it! So the paid survey companies are paying the telephone operators an hourly rate with a very low success rate and no guarantee of covering the demographic they want. By using online paid surveys, they have very low overheads, a 100% target success rate and they can chose the demographic they want! So they are quite willing to pay a small fee for your opinions.

Are there particular times when I need to be available to complete paid surveys …?

No! You can do the paid surveys at any time convenient to you. paid surveys are generally open for a day or 2. However it always pays to check your email a couple of times a day as some paid surveys (especially the higher paid ones) can fill up quickly.

How much time will it take for each paid survey …?

Most paid surveys take less than 15minutes. The time often depends on the amount the paid survey pays. Focus groups will usually take 1-2 hours (but they pay a lot more).

Are there any special computer requirements?

The main requirement is a regular and reliable internet access. Other than that most paid surveys can be completed with a minimal system. In general paid surveys are able to operate cross-platform.

How often is your database updated? Are the companies reputable…?

We have someone who is employed to fulltime that checks the links to all the companies listed in our database and updates as necessary. They are also constantly checking new paid survey companies as they come online or are brought to our attention. With all the companies on the database we make every effort to thoroughly check their legitimacy. Remember that for all these companies, you the paid survey community are what makes their business possible. Therefore any company silly enough to trouble their polling public would be killing their business in the process.

How many paid survey companies do you have in your database…?

The number of companies on our international database is currently over 500, with a large portion of these being available to people in any location. This number is dynamic as we are constantly updating as we become aware of new companies or other companies stop trading.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

How is The Survey Circle different from other paid survey database sites…?

Many databases consist of almost the same lists that are often full of broken links. We are constantly checking the validity of our links and we personally research every company in our database. We have also spent many hundreds of hours researching the database we now have and the legitimacy of the listed companies.

We also have gone through and sorted out which paid survey companies service which countries. Each member is then provided with a list specific to their location. Many databases require trying to register with every paid survey company, before you find out that half of them don't even service your country, costing you a lot of time.

Here at The Survey Circle we also pride ourselves on our customer service, with most queries being replied to within a few hours.

Questions about Getting Paid for Surveys

 

Can anyone do this? Or do I need to fit a certain "profile"…?

Yes anyone over the age of 18 can do this! And the only profile you need to fit is that you are willing to complete the paid surveys! Some paid survey companies are looking for people of a certain profile for a paid survey, but don't worry if you don't fit that profile, for their next paid survey you possibly will!

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

I have signed up with 10 companies, why haven't I got any paid survey offers!…?

Most paid survey companies only send out 2 or 3 paid surveys a month. Therefore you should register with many more than 10 companies to start getting more paid surveys.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

How much time must I invest to make good money…?

That depends on what you feel is good money. The more time you invest, the more money you will make. Once you have signed up with as many companies as you can, you will soon be able to pick and chose which paid surveys you take. Then you can earn up to a couple of hundred dollars a month for as little as 1-2 hours a day.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

How do I get paid? By who and how much…?

There are a few different ways that you can get paid. Many paid survey companies will pay into a PayPal account if you have registered with one. Generally though, companies will send out a cheque to your registered mailing address. Some companies pay every paid survey, others pay once a month. You are normally paid directly from the paid survey company. Depending on the paid survey, you can be paid from $4 to $25

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

Do I need to have a PayPal account to get paid for my surveys…?

No you don't need a PayPal account, but it certainly makes things easier! With a PayPal account some paid survey companies will deposit your money within minutes of completing the paid survey.

Do I have to declare the money I make for taxation…?

Unfortunately due to legal requirements we can't give you any specific advice on taxation. However generally we can tell you that you will have to tell the tax office what you earn. But we HIGHLY recommend that once you start earning you check with a tax specialist in your area.

Registration & Membership Questions

 

Why is there a membership fee to join The Survey Circle…?

If you were to try to compile the list of paid survey companies that we have, it would take you hundreds of hours signing up and wading through all the companies on the web just to find the ones that actually do offer paid surveys. We have already done that for you!!! So effectively you are paying the small fee for us performing hundreds of hours of work!

Also we employ people to constantly check, update and maintain the database, so the fee covers their wages. If we didn't do this we would be like the other databases, with a list full of broken links! But you get an up-to-date database that is always adding new companies and looking out for new bonuses for our members.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

Why is the fee in $US…?

This is an international company that operates in many countries, therefore we use US dollars as it is a standard that nearly all banks recognise, making it easier for membership payments. However we are currently exploring the option of having multiple currencies available on our sign-up page. This feature should be available in the next few months.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

Why can't you take the $25 from paid survey earnings…?

We would if we could! However we are not a paid survey company ourselves nor do we take commission from the paid survey companies. The paid survey companies pay you your money directly, so we cannot take the fee from your first few cheques.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

Can affiliate earnings be used to pay my $25 fee?

Yes! Absolutely! We will happily deduct your membership fee from your first few affiliate commissions. However this means you will not be able to access the paid survey database until the fee is paid.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

Are there any other fees or ongoing charges…?

No, there are no other hidden fees or ongoing charges associated with the online paid surveys database!! The $25 is a onetime only fee!!

However we are developing further methods for our members to make money online, when these become available you will have the OPTION to purchase them for a very small fee (less than $25!).

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

Can I pay using a method other than PayPal when registering…?

Yes, you can pay with your Visa card, Mastercard or American express credit card as well as being able to pay with PayPal and ClickBank.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

Is it safe to use my credit card online, as I would like to signup today…?

It is very safe to use your credit card online. In fact it is far more secure than using your credit card at the local grocery store!

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

Is there a limit to how many friends I can refer to get my $17 cash back…?

No. We do not condone the use of spam emailing to gain referrals as this is not a pyramid scheme. We dont restrict the number of referred friends, however any reported instances of spamming will be investigated fully and could result in the termination of your membership. The idea of the $17 cashback is to make our service to you virtually free! It is also so that you can share this opportunity with friends and family.

Back to Paid Survey FAQ top

 

How soon will I get my $17 cash back after referring a friend…?

Referral cashbacks will be processed every 2 weeks. The reason for this is that there will be less processing costs than if we sent a check for every $17 cashback. Otherwise it would not be feasible for us. Also referrals commissions will only be forwarded once the referring member/affiliate has paid their membership. Affiliate commissions CAN be used to pay for the affiliates membership.
