Opinion Outpost is a legitimate online survey company that pays you for surveys you complete. I get a few emails a day from Opinion Outpost inviting me to qualify for surveys. When you fill out the screener/profile survey, the company determines if your answers match the group of people they want to survey. If you qualify then you are invited to take the survey. You won’t qualify for each survey each time but more than half the time I qualify.
Opinion Outpost assigns a number of points to each survey and later allows you to convert those points into cash, United Mileage Plus Miles, Amazon giftcards, Restaurant.com giftcards, or even donate to the Red Cross. Each survey pays around $1.00 to $2.50, which equals about 10 to 25 points, though some surveys pay more. When you accumulate 100 points ($10) you can cash out via Paypal for cash.
Additionally, Opinion Outpost regularly has cash prize drawings and each survey you take will get you an entry into their quarterly prize sweepstakes.
I have cashed out a few times with Opinion Outpost via Paypal and they pay promptly. They always have surveys available and with each survey taking around 20-30 minutes its a great way to make some extra cash by taking frequent surveys.
I did surveys a few years back but I was only accepted for about 10% of the surveys so I stopped doing them. I might try again in the future, but for now I'm still upset about always being rejected!
Yeah I have gotten frustrated before too, but I find that I can also qualify for focus groups and other types of surveys which pay more so while I get rejected a lot still (they are usually really specific), when I qualify i get paid about $50 or more so its worth it.
