The survey lengths can vary depending on the survey . In general, most surveys average between 15-20 minutes, but may be shorter or longer depending on the survey. Before clicking into any survey, we will always inform you of the expected time it will take from start to finish.
Why do I not have more survey invitations sent to me?
Each survey is based on your demographic data provided upon signup. Based on the needs of the survey, you may be contacted for a survey opportunity. Be sure to also check your spam folder and add [email protected] to your approved senders list.
Why will I sometimes have a difficult time completing a survey?
The criteria and subject of surveys are determined by our clients. When you begin a survey you begin by taking a series of pre-screening questions to see if you meet the criteria which the client is seeking.
If I have general questions where can I address them?
Any general questions can be directed to our Customer Service team. Operating hours are: Monday - Friday, between 8:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. PST.

You can also check what's new and upcoming, as well as current issues on our Blog Spot: http://onlycashsurveys.blogspot.com.
What does it mean when your survey is pending?
When a survey closes, our client who hosts the survey provides us with the results of the valid respondents that participated in the survey. Your survey will remain "Pending" until the survey is closed and the data has been verified.. Once the results have been reviewed, and authorized, the status of that survey will change to "Earned".
Why does it take longer on some surveys to change from "Pending" to "Earned" than others. How long can it take?
Each survey is unique and requires different number of interviews. Our client may take a few days to a few weeks to review the information received by each respondent. If the survey you took is also being conducted in other countries, keep in mind it will take longer than normal to get cleared. All surveys are normally verified within 4 weeks of completing the survey.
Are your surveys available outside of the United States?
We do have surveys that require the participation of our international panel members. If you are a member of the international community, you will be invited to applicable surveys as they arrive. We are continuously adding more surveys for our international panel members.
What if a survey encountered a technical error?
There is always a chance that a technical error can occur while taking a survey. We strive to make them as limited as we can, but cannot always avoid them. If the survey encounters an error, the survey does not record you as a complete, which means that it might take longer for you to see credit for taking the survey because we will have to investigate the technical issue. We will be working on some incentive programs to reward individuals that experience technical difficulties.
When am I able to cash out?
Your cash out amount will be listed in your "My Rewards" section of your account. Click on the "My Rewards" tab once logged in. Your "Cash-out Threshold" will be listed in the "Account Snapshot".
How do I cash out?
Once you have reached the threshold required, a button will appear titled "Cash Out" on your "Rewards Page". Click on the "Cash Out" button and you will be able to cash out your rewards. You will need to verify the e-mail address associated with your PayPal account in order for us to correctly send the payment when processed.
How long will it take to get my rewards posted to my PayPal account?
Cash out requests are approved within 4 weeks after requesting your cash out.

There are some compatibility issues that have arisen with some of the browsers used by the panelist, but this can be handled within a few minutes.
