Branded Surveys alternatives: 7 sites like Branded Surveys, compared on what they pay

We build PaysFair, an earning app that competes with every app on this page. Judge our bias accordingly, and check the numbers below against the sources at the bottom.

On our map, the survey apps closest to Branded Surveys are Survey Junkie, Qmee, Eureka, LifePoints, Curious Cat and AttaPoll. Opinion Outpost shares its owner, Dynata.

We read every app's own pages on October 23, 2026, and we haven't used any of them ourselves. Where an app's pages disagree with each other, we print both.

Why do people leave Branded Surveys?

It's open in three countries: the US, Canada and the UK. You must be in one of them to redeem, and bank transfers are "currently only available for our U.S members", its help center says.

Every payout request needs a 4-digit code sent to your mobile number. Points can also be taken back. Each survey goes through a quality review by its partners, and "rejected survey points are deducted from your current point balance". Its examples are "Unclear open ends", "Inconsistent responses" and "Answering surveys too quickly".

Its pages disagree on expiry. Its terms say points expire a year after they're posted. Its help center says "Branded Surveys does not allow points to expire." Its terms also want a survey or a profile update every six months to keep an account active. After a deactivation, you get 30 days to redeem.

In the US, disputes go to binding individual arbitration with JAMS, under Connecticut law, with class actions and a jury waived. We found no way to opt out in its terms.

Its Trustpilot page shows 4.2 stars from 124,163 reviews. Recent low reviews there describe surveys that lock up near the end, and one member who was "blocked". Google's suggestions include "does branded surveys sell your info" and "branded surveys vs survey junkie".

What are the best sites like Branded Surveys?

Six survey apps from its lane on our map, then ours. Every fact is the app's own, read on October 23, 2026, unless a date says otherwise.

Survey Junkie

Survey Junkie pays for surveys, and DISQO owns it. It's for people 18 or older in the US, Canada, Australia or the UK.

You can cash out from $5, or 500 points, to PayPal, a bank account or gift cards. Its identity checks "can include text, email or phone call confirmation", a cross-check with reward partners, or "photo ID verification".

What it does better than Branded Surveys: Australia. Survey Junkie takes members there, and Branded Surveys doesn't.

Qmee

Qmee pays for surveys, cashback offers and gaming offers, and Kantar UK Ltd runs it, by its terms. It's for people 16 or older in the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, France and Germany.

Its FAQ says there's "no minimum withdrawal amount" for PayPal or Venmo, and the money arrives "within a few minutes". Before your first gift card, it checks who you are, for example through a PayPal cash-out of any amount. A balance on an account unused for a year stays with Qmee.

What it does better than Branded Surveys: no minimum. Branded Surveys asks for 500 approved points, or $5.

Eureka

Eureka pays for surveys, games and short videos, and SocialLoop, LLC in Florida runs it. It's only for the US, and you must be 18 or older.

The minimum cash-out is $5, to PayPal, a Visa card, a US bank account or gift cards. "Most cashouts are instant, but some may take up to three business days," its help page says.

What it does better than Branded Surveys: a way out of arbitration. You can opt out within 30 days, and its arbitration "may be conducted by video, telephone, written submissions, or in person in the county where you reside", its terms say.

Not tested yet.

LifePoints

LifePoints pays points for surveys, and Lightspeed LLC in New York, a Kantar group company, runs it. You must be 14 or older, and you can join only in the country where you live. It has members from over 40 countries, its home page says.

You can redeem once you have enough points for its lowest-priced reward, as gift cards or PayPal cash. Donations start at $1. A survey every 90 days keeps the account from being suspended.

What it does better than Branded Surveys: a second review. If your account is suspended or closed, you can ask for one, and it answers within 30 days. Branded Surveys' help center lists warnings, restrictions and suspension, and we found no appeal in its pages.

Not tested yet.

Curious Cat

Curious Cat pays points for surveys, polls and tasks, and On Device Research Ltd in the UK runs it. You must be 18 or older. It's open in 16 countries, among them Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, Brazil and Mexico.

You can cash out from 100 points, which is £1 or roughly $1.30, to PayPal in every region, with local wallets in Thailand and Indonesia. A screen-out earns nothing, and 90 days without a survey can void your points.

What it does better than Branded Surveys: reach. It covers 16 countries, where Branded Surveys covers three.

Not tested yet.

AttaPoll

AttaPoll pays for surveys, games and other tasks, and AttaPoll Ltd in London runs it. You can join at 13, with a parent's consent if you're under 18.

Its App Store listing says cash-outs start at $3, to PayPal, a bank, Revolut or gift cards. Its terms, in an archive copy of August 29, 2026, say the threshold varies by country and payment method. Six months without a completed activity forfeits your balance.

What it does better than Branded Surveys: it takes members from 13, where Branded Surveys' US terms ask for 16.

PaysFair

PaysFair is ours. It pays for surveys, games and campaigns. In a campaign, you post clips and content on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram and X. The smallest cash-out is $1.00, paid as a gift card by email. We check the first cash-out by hand.

It's for people 16 or older, and what there is to do depends on your country. It runs on the web and in an Android app on Google Play. Obsidian UG in Germany runs it.

What it does better than Branded Surveys: campaigns. You can get paid for posting clips, which Branded Surveys' pages don't offer.

We build it, so we don't review it.

Which one has the smallest cash-out?

Branded Surveys' Silver and Gold members get "instant payout approval". Its bank transfers still wait on your bank's processing time.

Which apps share Branded Surveys' owner?

Opinion Outpost does. Its terms say it's "owned and operated by Dynata, LLC", the same words Branded Surveys' terms use. Dynata bought Branded Research Inc. in June 2022, its press release says.

The two run on one template. In both, points expire a year after they're posted, an account stays active with a survey or a profile update every six months, and you get 30 days to redeem after a deactivation. US disputes go to JAMS arbitration in both. Opinion Outpost's US terms ask for 17, where Branded Surveys' ask for 16.

If you're leaving Branded Surveys over its rules, Opinion Outpost has the same ones.
