You earn points for every online surveys participate in. 100 points = $1. On average, you will earn between $1 (100 points) to $5 (500 points) per study. If you disqualify for a survey, you will get 10 points which worth $0.10. A minimum of 1000 points ($10) is required to cash out.You can redeem your points for cash. Age Requirement At least 18 years old Open to Countries United States My Experience HCD surveys is one of my favorite online paid survey sites. They don't send out many surveys, however their surveys pay quite well, and I do like the fact you earn 10 points if you disqualify for a survey (which is nice and fair in my opinion) They seem to have more current events and political surveys, which are interesting, easy and short. Those surveys usually involve watching a short video and giving your reaction and opinion. You do need to react/answer HCD's surveys fast though since their surveys fill very quickly (due to the fact that surveys are interesting and pay is good.) They use a point system, and points add up pretty quickly. Once you have 1000 points (which is quite easy to reach), you can request cash payment. They pay via check and usually take 6 weeks to receive check payment. Other Notes 1. HCD Surveys has a referral program, where you are rewarded 75 points for referring each friend. 2. HCD Surveys no longer accept P.O. Boxes as valid address - update your mailing address if you have a PO Box, otherwise you won't receive payment check. 3. HCD Surveys also have two specialty panels for physicians and health-care professionals. Overall I think HCD Surveys is a very good online paid survey panel, and I definitely recommend it!
