How this site makes money
Affiliate commissions, and what they do and do not buy.
Some of the links on this site to survey panels are affiliate links. If you follow one and join, the panel may pay us a small commission. You are never charged anything — survey panels are free to join, and any site asking you to pay to join one is not a survey panel.
What that does not change
- Whether a company is listed. Everything the previous version of this site covered is still here, including companies that pay us nothing and companies we advise against.
- Where it ranks. The table sorts on verified status and member ratings from two independent sources. There is no field in it for what a company pays us.
- What we say. Several of the highest-rated sites here have no affiliate programme at all. Several that pay generously are rated poorly on this site, and we have said so on their pages.
Lead generators
Companies whose entire business is collecting your email and reselling it are labelled as lead generators and ranked below every genuine panel, whatever they pay. They are the most lucrative affiliate programmes in this category and the worst deal for the person signing up.
Ratings data
Ratings shown on this site are collected from Trustpilot and SurveyPolice. We have no commercial relationship with either. They are quoted as published on 31 July 2026, and we do not adjust, weight or average them.
