I completed 5 surveys and then wanted to cash out my earnings and was faced with a message " Technical error, please contact support". I have contacted them since Jan 9 and got no response . I went ahead to contact them via their reddit page, they acted like they wanted to help and them went ahead to ban me after deleting my post. Just avoid them . They are scammers . You will waste time answering surveys and then.. boom....
Edit : I said in my text that I contacted support since 9th January and no response . I have just sent another email now with the email address you gave me . Hoping for something better . I will come back and update if I get any positive feedback. Thanks

this place is trash
this place is trash. not only is a bottomless pit of screen outs, they always have surveys especially at the 4 out of 5 marker that screen you out after finishing an entire survey. so stupid we give our information, data and time while they collect and not pay out. they're trash. thieves.

To much time wasted
I make money if I spend an excess of time trying. The app starts to develop an algorithm and it gets hard to qualify. After you gain money they make it harder. They make a ton of money yet are greedy with paying out.

Not That Great
This survey site was good when I first started using it but as you continue to use it surveys become scarce or it takes forever to actually reach 5$, with little to no surveys being offered towards the end. You will constantly complete surveys and not get credit, and best support can do it for you is blame the partners and the survey providers without offering any compensation to you. not even half a point. they do not care about user’s experience at all.

Horrible app
Horrible app, I downloaded it for the first time been trying to get these “five surveys” for almost three hours, so now it’s saying there are no surveys available. Literally EVERY single survey you do you’re timed out for no reason complete waste of time try AttaPoll way better than this app.

All you need to know.
SO!
Lets start of simple.
Fivesurveys IS a legit Website, allowing you to Fill out Online Surveys in Exchange for Giftcards or Money.
Positive Notes:
- Fivesurveys has NO Withdrawl Limit. Means if you spend 1-2 Hours to fill out 5 Surveys, you can get the 5$ Payout in less then 5 Minutes. Thats a HUGE Plus compared to other Survey websites.
- It gives you the Possibility to take part on Surveys which may tickle your Interest. (Like Energy Drinks, Physical Activities, Overall Politics)
- The Website itself is fairly simple to use. And doesnt require a bachelor Degree in IT to use it.
- The Support awnsers (even at a time like 3 in the morning) in less then 20 Minutes, which is a huge plus.
(No its not some AI Support, it was an Actual Human)
- Its a good thing for people who have barely any money left at the end of the month to get some small Income. (For my part, i use it mainly to Buy Tobacco) :)
Negative Points:
- Some of the Surveys are Ridicously Broken, either they throw you out Immediatly or get Broken in the Middle.
The biggest Shame was that some Surveys let you fill out the ENTIRE Survey and then throw you out at the VERY last Question to avoid the Point for the Fivesurvey Website.
- The Time spend on broken Surveys feels Wasted. If you spend 20 Minutes on a survey, get thrown out at the very last question and go out without anything feels Depressing and Unfair.
If a Person spends over 20 Minutes on something and gets Thrown out because of a Flaw on the System End and not the User End, they SHOULD be rewarded ATLEAST Half a Survey Point. Thats a BIG Issue right now.
- BIG BIG BIG REDFLAG!
NEVER, and i mean, NEEEEVER!
Enter your E-Mail Adress or Phone Numbers.
Once you enter your Phone Number into a Survey, the chance of it being leaked or Sold to Databrokers is around 99%.
(Why? I Filled out a Survey, had to write down my Number, the next 3 days i got over 20 Spam Phonecalls.)
- Another Point is the Time.
If the FiveSurveys site Tells me: "This Survey takes around 8 Minutes", and the Survey then says "It takes around 20-30 Minutes" Is kinda BS.
You should work on that.
Overall:
The Website is not Perfect, neither are the Surveys.
But as it is right now, this is by far the easiest and most reliable Source of Surveys to use.
The Payout offers various Options (Giftcards, Paypal, Revolut)
You always can see which Surveys are Avaiable and Maybe worth.
Overall, its a good site to use if you need some Quick Money (Maybe a bus ticket, some tobacco, a small breakfast) and doesnt require an Insane Amount of time.
Just be ready to get randomly thrown out of Surveys, some Breaking on You, some not working at all.
But im sure over the time, those Issues will be worked on and constantly Improving.
So for now, the 5 Stars are Deserved in my Opinion.

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand how frustrating it can be to encounter survey screenouts or unexpected errors, and we truly appreciate your feedback.
Surveys are provided by our research partners, and each one has its own qualification criteria. Occasionally, participants may be screened out if the required profile has already been filled, or temporary technical issues may affect the survey experience.
If you notice an error, please make sure you're using the latest version of the app, try clearing your cache or restarting the app, and keep a screenshot if possible. If the issue continues, please email us at help@fivesurveys.com with the survey details and any screenshots so our team can take a closer look.
Thank you for choosing Five Surveys - Where Your Opinions Matter!

It does reward… Most times not worth it.
I’ve been using this app for about a year now. I enjoyed it in the beginning and it’s not bad to pass the time doing small tasks. But any time there is a worth while task to complete in the games, it seems the reward gets lowered. Ex: I checked the achievement before I hit the checkpoint, it was $16.66.. but then, right after I was only awarded $12.92. This has happened now about 5 times now - that I’ve NOTICED. I feel a bit ripped off after wasting time on it.

This site is a fraud
This site is a fraud. They advertise specials bonus surveys to make $10 for 5 surveys, then do not follow through on the bonus. Beware of the fraudulent activities of this site.

We understand how valuable your effort is, and we want to make sure everything is clear so you can get the most from this reward.
Here are the key details of the $10 bonus offer for completing 5 surveys:
✔ The $10 reward is a one-time bonus per user — it can only be earned once per account
✔ The offer is valid for 7 days, beginning the moment you click the button in the email
✔ Clicking the offer button resets your survey progress back to 0, but this will not impact your current account balance or earnings already credited
✔ Once 5 surveys are completed and the $10 bonus is awarded, the offer automatically ends
Your existing account balance remains safe and unaffected — this promotion only applies to the progress toward the 5 surveys needed for the bonus itself.

Swagbucks is better
Completed surveys and didn't get rewarded for it, once is bad enough and you cant report the error. You are better of fighting professional boxers for loose change at this point.

If I could give 0 stars, I would
Today, January 21, 2026, it took me 68 tries over the course of 5 hours, for me to complete 5 surveys. Of those tries, 63 of them were screen outs -- back, to back, to back, to back, to back, to back, to back. And that's including breaks of minutes, and even hours, at a time. I wake up at 5:30am just so I could get ahead in getting the newly released surveys, but even so, for the past two days, I've been constantly screened out regardless of what survey it is and how brutally honest I was. Screener.PureSpectrum.com was absolutely horrendous in almost always screening me out regardless of my honest answers, and it's unfortunate that fivesurveys.com is full of that screener website.
I've lost sleep just so I could get ahead in answering these surveys, so their market play of "Complete 5 Surveys, you get $5" is false advertising. And I personally went through hell; 68 tries = 5 surveys completed + 63 screen outs. You do the math.
Fivesurveys.com will read this and will reply the usual, "We don't control the surveys that we place on our website" bs under my review, just to make it look like it's "not that bad." It is bad. Really bad. It's so bad, I recorded and counted how much it took me for me to complete 5 surveys today, and this is the result. This is not anecdotal; this is literal eyewitness, I-went-through-it-so-you-won't-have-to experience. EDIT 1/23/26: See the reply below this very review? Right on cue
If could also pin this experience of mine as a red flag warning to everyone new to Fivesurveys.com, I would, so that they'll not experience the same hell I went through. Don't use this survey site. Ever. Tell it to your grandma, your mom, your brother, your bestfriend -- heck, even your enemies(!), to not use this survey site. It's beyond torture. No person should go through this kind of pain and suffering; you already have a lot of problems to deal as it is. Don't add Fivesurveys.com to the problems that you're already dealing with.
