User Reviews

I've been using SurveyJunkie for a while now, and I've made a lot of extra money! What people don't understand about survey apps is that it's not going to make you rich - it's just an alternative to make some extra money in your free time.

This is the first survey app I've actually made money from. Took about 2 hrs of surveys for $10. $5 an hour might not sound great but I made this money while watching movies, exercising, walking to class - things I'd be doing anyway for free!

Thanks to this app, I was able to earn $10 for groceries before my next payday. The deposit came through in 2 days instead of the estimated 5. This app does exactly what it says, and actually pays out.
