   Not a full time income but between mystery shopping, on-line surveys and focus groups you can make money. I did this while I was on a career break!

   Never! Maybe I've come across all the spammy ones.

   I used MTurk many years ago which is a platform through Amazon. I am not sure if it is still active. I had a gap year in employment at the time and was on the platform for a parttime basis and earned around $900. You won't make a living on there but it comes in handy to pay a few bills if needed.

   I also tried another site, sorry the name escapes me but it was fun. You qualified for surveys by your knowledge of topics and what you do for fun. They paid in cash or gift cards. I used it often enough to receive many restaurant gift cards.

   If you plan to try surveys do your homework and check the reviews so you don't get scammed.

   I have. No where close to replacement salary but I earned around a thousand dollars over the last 12 months. I've probably worked under 4 hours total across the whole year, so that's pretty good money for my time. Both of the sites that I belong to are not "get paid a few dollars to do an online survey" types of sites, they are "do a quick survey to see if you fit the company needs and if you do fit, then they set up an interview" type of site.

   I use two different sites:

   UserInterviews - this site does a lot of different types of interview/surveys from food, consumers good, tech stuff, sports, current affairs.

   https://www.userinterviews.com/r/yyktnpwjp (that's my referral url, so if you sign up and do a survey, I get a few bucks)

   Polis by Emporia - https://www.emporiaresearch.com/ this site is more business/tech focused.

   About earning income from surveys online, I’ve tried that road and nah, it’s mostly dead ends and pocket change. You grind for hours and end up with scraps, feels rough. If someone’s serious about online profit in Nigeria, I’d say look at real gaming or betting platforms instead. Something like https://parimatch.net.ng/registration/ where you actually sign up to a legit Nigerian betting and casino platform with sports, slots and live games. At least there you’re playing defined games with known payouts, not praying a survey site doesn’t disqualify you at the last question.

   Non GamStop casinos UK are commonly chosen by players seeking broader access to international gaming platforms. These sites may offer flexible bonuses, loyalty programs, and varied betting limits. Game catalogs often include thousands of titles, from slots to live dealer experiences. Banking options typically support multiple currencies and payment methods. Because protections can differ from domestic operators, reviewing licensing details and security measures is important. Players should also read the terms carefully before claiming any promotions.

   I tried surveys for a while, but the payout always felt too slow for the time spent. Recently I’ve actually been making better side income from online games, and somewhere in the middle of testing platforms I found https://golisimo.ca/ It’s honestly been more entertaining and way more worthwhile for me lately.
