Got to love survey sites
I have used many survey sites in the past that paid out, some started off paying well to later not be worth it anymore but ther is one site that sends me surveys several times a week and you can pay out from 10 bucks of earnings (or save up a bit more).
Usercrowd
Over the years I stopped using previous ones because of not being worth the time anymore but there was one (once shared by another user) that's called "Usercrowd" which I signed up for and currently have 9 succesful payouts. As with others, it was a bit of a slow starter because in the first year, I only had 1 payout as well as in the second year but the second year my payout was already 3x higher than the minimum. And as it takes just a little of your time, I didn't mind and hoped it would catch up.
I first only did Dutch and English surveys but later I added Spanish as well, but I rarely get any Spanish questions. In the third year I had 4 payouts and 25% more in value than the previous year. This year I only had one recently but already half of what I had cashed out last year so there's still growth so it seems.
Designs, testing prototypes
The questions are usually short and often just 1 or 2 questions, each 20 cent payout. Some earn a few bucks at once but have a screener to see if you're eligible for the test or not. If not, you'll always get 20 cents for your effort.
Designers are creating websites or apps and test the prototypes through Usercrowd or ask questions about functionality or design. It's important to be honest and not just say "I like it" or "I hate it" but give constructive feedback and answer the question well. If you don't, the user rating will drop and I guess at some point they will not send you anything anymore. This never happened to me as I keep my score high.
Paypal
The payments are often processed very quickly, through PayPal, which I love because I then use the money to purchase silver at a website where I can use PayPal as a payment method. This time I didn't have much choice as I didn't want to add to much of my own money but I managed to buy a 1 oz panda silver coin from 2011 for a good price. It's not in perfect condition but I didn't mind because I wanted to have an ounce of silver for the lowest price possible paid from the survey earnings.
Interested to sign up?
I'm only sharing it for your benefit there is no referal fee kickback or anything. Just visit www.usercrowd.com and check out if this is something you're up to. I have no clue if the slow starter was because the platform didn't have much interest yet at the time or that it's a slow starter for every new person that signs up, maybe it has to do with the language as well.
But for me it's a no brainer to do a few easy tasks and then use the payouts to trade it for silver. There's also the option to do in person or online interviews which I personally haven't had invitations for but who knows it can be tight to location or something like that.
Waiting for my first Panda silver
I haven't bought any silver panda coins so far, it will be my first so I'm hoping the seller sends it quickly so that I can check it out in person.
Either way, I will be happy with another ounce to add to the collection.
To be continued ...
I used to make a modest amount of cash from the Ipsos Reid survey website. The surveys tend to be longer than stated but I did enough to to keep it going for a few years. They offered Paypal coupons too. I used it on silver bullion buys.
Until Steem/Hive came along and haven't touched the website since.

Nice! I had a survey a while ago that gave me a 20 euro Amazon coupon. Don't remember what it was from but it was nice to have something for just one survey lol.
I just cashed out this payment from Usercrowd a few days ago and today I got another survey of 5,40 and those are really rare. Already back at 8 bucks a few days later. They can send me these more often lol, it means more Silver :)
!LADY !PIMP
Way to go! Silver for doing some surveys is almost like free silver. I used to to some every now and again but the pay rates went down so much that it wasn't worth the time anymore. Great job, Pandas are nice!

I know right? Funny thing is, I was paid out a few days ago and already have another 8 bucks because they sent me a survey for 5,40 .. Love it :)
But usually I will save until at least 20 or a bit more to make it worth it before cashing out..
!PIMP
That's great! I'll have to check them out and see if they have any decent offerings over here. Money is money, right?
!PIMP
Yeah I have no clue how they operate in each country but I'd say check it out for sure..
!PIMP
I get text messages that want me to do a survey, but I always delete them... But that's me...
When I get random text messages I surely will not click on them, but this is a website where I registered myself for the purpose of doing surveys and earnings some from that. Never trust text messages with links haha.
Ooooo pandaaaaaaa
You'll love it.
Which one you bought?
I hope so! It's not in perfect condition but the price was just a little above spot because of it, the others were more expensive .. I think 2011 from the top of my head but not sure.. it will be shipped today I think.
I need to see itttttttttttttttttttttttt
!PIMP
It comes this week I think so be patient lol..
!PIMP
I can't be patient
Want to see it nowwwwwwwww
You'll have to be because I have not been posting daily anyway haha
