About HonestPayouts
HonestPayouts is an independent UK site comparing survey and paid-research sites by what people actually earn per hour and how fast they get paid. Figures come from cited public sources and, increasingly, reader-submitted reports. Where we have no reliable number, we say awaiting reports instead of guessing.
Affiliate disclosure
Some links on this site are referral or affiliate links. If you sign up through them we may receive a bonus or commission, at no extra cost to you. This never changes the order of the table, which is driven by data. Wherever we show a referral link we also show a plain, non-referral link, and referral links are marked “ref”. Currently no referral links are live.
Tax
UK residents: income from side hustles above the £1,000 trading allowance may need to be reported to HMRC.
How the ranking works
Sites are ordered by the midpoint of the hourly range cited from published tests. Payout speed and minimum cash-out come from each site's help pages or independent comparisons, linked on every card. When reader reports arrive they will be shown separately and labelled “reader-reported”, with the number of reports.
