This segment used to be one of the biggest (old timers will remember the 'paid to surf' companies All Advantage, Desktop Dollars etc. that were around 3 or so years ago) but gradually a lot of companies have come and gone and now there seem to be only a handful left. These are the programs that will more than likely require you to download software to enable you to either view ads or get paid just for generally downloading it in the first place!!
Most companies in this field pay out in web currencies like eGold and Paypal. So check that whether the payment method is valid in your country or not before you are going to start.


:: Galactic Gold
It has a very active survey division and requires paid survey participants worldwide. This survey company rewards you with varying amounts of marketpoints, from 20 points for referring a friend up to 100 points for an online focus group task. We receive a good handful of surveys every week and the average you can earn per survey is around 50 points. Even if you are not eligible to take a survey when you have completed the initial screening questions, you will still earn around 1 to 10 points. Points are of course exchangeable for cash. An usual survey of 30 questions that takes about 12 minutes to complete will earn 60 to 80 MarketPoints.
You can redeem your points when you earn a minimum of 1000. 1 point is equivalent to $0.05. Pretty easy to reach the minimum if you take a few of the surveys every week. Do accept all international members. For full details and registration form, visit Galactic Gold
