UK panel comparison

Paid surveys in the UK: the panels that actually accept you

Most paid-survey lists are written for the United States, so half the panels on them reject a UK signup at the registration step. These 8 name the UK in their own published terms.

Panels open to the UK

Rewards are paid in whatever currency the provider publishes, which is not always pounds. Check the redemption screen before you assume a threshold converts the way you expect.

Might accept you — worth trying

These operate in more markets than they list by name, so eligibility is decided at signup rather than published in advance.

Closed to the UK

Listed so you do not waste a signup. We still review them, because they are worth knowing about if you move or travel.

How to read a country list

  • A panel that names your country in its terms will still profile you into its UK sample, which is smaller than its US sample. Fewer surveys reach you, so run several panels rather than one.
  • Thresholds published in dollars are redeemed in dollars on most panels even when you are outside the United States. Currency conversion is applied by the payment method, not the panel.
  • Gift-card catalogues are country-specific. A panel with a strong US catalogue can have a thin one in the UK, which matters more than the headline pay rate.
  • Tax treatment of survey rewards differs by country. Nothing on this site is tax advice — check with your own tax authority.
