YourSayPays
Amongst my friends and colleagues, I’m considered a bit of a king when it comes to survey sites. I’m sure there are better things to be known for, but there we are. I was actually introduced to YourSayPays by a friend who had only been completing surveys for about a month. I have no idea how he found it, but he liked it, so I thought I would give it a go.
What is YourSayPays?
This is a UK site that rewards you with cash for your opinions, mainly from short surveys. Once you reach £20, you can withdraw your earnings as cash or a gift card.
Is it safe?
YourSayPays is run by The Leadership Factor Limited, a British company based in Huddersfield that has been operating since 1996. I have used the platform for several years and have never had any issues.

How does it work?
You’ll need to create an account, which should only take a couple of minutes. YourSayPays requires some basic demographic details such as your postcode and employment status so it can send you appropriate surveys. But unlike many other survey sites, you will earn some money for doing this.
Then, head to your dashboard to see if there are any surveys available. Each survey will tell you how much it pays… but not how long it takes. However, I find that the vast majority of surveys take between 1 and 2 minutes. If you find a 50 pence survey, they tend to take a little longer.
There are opportunities to take part in telephone studies. These usually pay £2-3 and take 10-15 minutes. They’re not for everyone, but the pay isn’t too bad.
Once a survey is completed, the money will be added to your account instantly. And when you reach £20, you can withdraw.
Any downsides?
Although I managed about £2 in the first two days, progress was a little slow after that. Some days I would see 4-5 surveys and then nothing for several days afterwards. And at around 10 pence per survey, I only earned around 50 pence per week.
From joining in May, my first withdrawal wasn’t made until August. And that only came about because I completed a £10 survey when somebody called me about opticians (I did agree to the call beforehand). There is a setting for you to be notified when new surveys are available. Although I have had this set to yes since I’ve been a member, I’ve yet to receive any notifications.
It’s a shame that there’s no YourSayPays app. Because the surveys are so short, an app would be ideal. But, you can complete surveys from your mobile browser.
How much can you earn with YourSayPays?
It took me a while to get to £20 but not much effort. 10 pence surveys usually took under 30 seconds and a telephone survey for £10 took 10 minutes. I did waste quite a bit of time checking for new surveys though. Expect to earn the equivalent of £5-6 per hour.
Below, you can see that from 1,202 surveys, I have earned £220.
How are you paid?
Once you reach £20, you can withdraw your earnings into your PayPal account or choose Amazon vouchers. Although YourSayPays says that payment can take up to 14 days, I have received it within three.

Is there a referral scheme?
I do love the opportunity to refer friends as it’s an easy way to make money. However, YourSayPays doesn’t run any kind of referral bonus.
My YourSayPays review conclusion
I like YourSayPays, but… it’s very frustrating. I check the site daily and don’t earn as much as I would like.
I know that over 1,200 surveys for £220 sounds like a lot of work, but it doesn’t really feel like it. As I said earlier, most surveys are very short.
It won’t earn you as much as sites like Branded Surveys and Prolific, but it’s not a bad amount from very little effort.
