I looked at what the Measure MSR app offers to see if it is worth your time. It is legit and the tasks are quick, but it is only for the US, UK and Canada, and better apps exist. Below is what I found, and which apps I recommend instead.
Legit and quick, but limited and only in 3 countries
Short surveys and paid jobs for points. Only in the US, UK and Canada.

The short answer
Measure MSR is a legit app that rewards you for short surveys and paid jobs. The tasks do not take long, and the payout threshold is relatively low.
But it is only available in the US, UK and Canada, and it does not have as high an earning potential as many other apps. Most tasks pay around $0.25 to $1. It is a decent extra app, not a main one.
- Their app is user-friendly
- Relatively low payout threshold
- Earning opportunities don’t take too much time to finish
- A small joining bonus
- Limited earning opportunities
- Only available in the US, UK and Canada
- Some jobs ask for personal data, like your Amazon purchase history
- No FAQ for the app

Is Measure MSR legit and safe?
Yes, Measure MSR is a legit app that rewards you for surveys and paid jobs. But that does not automatically make it worth your time. Here is what you should know.
- Limited earning opportunities
Most tasks pay around $0.25 to $1. From time to time, a single task pays $10, but in my experience that is not very common.
- Some jobs ask for your data
Paid jobs can ask you to upload photos of products, rate a service, or share your purchase history from Amazon. Only do the jobs you are comfortable with.
- Readers reported payouts that did not arrive
In 2023, three readers wrote about PayPal payouts that did not arrive or were canceled, and about emails without a reply. Another reader wrote that she had three payouts that year, all within a few days.
- Only in three countries
Measure MSR is only available in the US, UK and Canada. If you live anywhere else, find another app.
My takeOverall, Measure MSR is a decent app to use if you want to earn extra cash. It doesn’t have a very high earning potential like some other apps or sites, but you will be able to earn a decent amount. Just don’t expect it to match the earning potential of top survey and Get-Paid-To sites.
How you earn on Measure MSR
There are 3 ways to earn. Surveys and paid jobs are the main ones. Tap one to read more.
Paid surveysShort and quick
The surveys on Measure MSR are shorter and easier than on most survey sites. Every survey shows the reward up front, and each one starts with a couple of qualifying questions.
After a survey, you can rate it on how well it pays or how complicated it is. That way, you influence which surveys you get in the future. I have not seen this feature often.
Paid jobsMore for Retro tasks
Paid jobs are short tasks. Most ask you to upload photos of certain products, rate a service or a place, or share your purchase history from Amazon.
Retro tasks are the premium jobs. They can be a bit more complicated, but you also earn more. Read the instructions carefully before you begin, and follow them to the letter. You can rate jobs too.
Referral program50 points
Share your invite link. When someone signs up and installs the app, they immediately receive 50 points ($0.50). It is not much, but the requirement is easy to meet.
How much can you make?
You usually get around $0.25 to $1 for the tasks and surveys you complete. From time to time, you can earn $10 for a single task, but do not expect a lot of those.
It will not come anywhere near a full-time income. But you do not have to spend much time on the app, and it will not take long to reach the payout threshold.
Rewards and minimum
| Reward | Where |
|---|---|
| Gift cards: Amazon, Sephora and more | From 1,000 points |
| Virtual Visa debit card | US |
| Mastercard Debit | UK |
| PayPal | According to MSR’s app store listing and readers |
Every survey or job earns points. 100 points are worth $1, and you can redeem from 1,000 points. The low threshold means you do not have to wait months to redeem.

Who tested Measure MSR for this review
If you have any comments, questions, or experiences with the Measure MSR app, I would love to hear from you in a comment below.
My experience has been nothing but negative from the get go. I down loaded the app and registered it and was given $15.00 as a reward. I filled out the request for payment thru PayPal, and 6 days later I am still waiting on my MO ey and a reply to my 3 emails. I have now removed the app and will not use it again.
Thanks,
Trudy Greenup
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Same here. My final payout is for 125.00, and they claim paypal canceled my payment.
So are they going to give it to you in another form. This is awful. Ni haven’t got paid either. I called PayPal and they said they have no record of the payment. Ugh!! So sorry this happened to you too.
I have used it for the last year and I have had three payouts. I received all of them within a few days. I haven’t had any problems with them. I think they’re one of the easier apps to use and cash out on.
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
PayPal payout is available.
True – that is also what I write in the review above.
Sure don’t
Last thing you said in the cons was that they don’t do PayPal

I explain everything in the review above.
