I tested MetroOpinion to see if it is worth your time. It is legit and pays a fair amount per survey, but there are not many surveys. Below is what I found, and which sites I recommend instead.
Legit, but too few surveys to earn regularly
Backed by Cint AB, open in many countries, with a low threshold. You will not get many surveys.
On this page
The short answer
MetroOpinion is legit. It is powered by Cint AB, a market research company, and it really pays you for answering surveys. It is not a bad survey site, but it is not that good either.
A survey pays $0.50 to $5, which is not a bad rate. But the site really does not offer a lot of surveys, and surveys are its only way to earn. It can serve as a decent secondary site. It is not the site to earn from regularly.
- Offers payment via PayPal
- Has a relatively low payout threshold
- Backed by a legit market research company
- Has panels in more countries than most survey sites
- Mobile-friendly website
- Limited earning opportunities
- Completing your profile can take some time, and you won’t get paid for it
- Surveys that pay $5 are very rare
- 2% fee on PayPal withdrawals
- Email support only, and the FAQ is only visible after you join
My experience with MetroOpinion
I signed up, filled out my profile, and went through the surveys and payout options. This is what I did myself, and what I did not test.

Is MetroOpinion legit and safe?
Yes, MetroOpinion is legit, because it really pays you for answering surveys. But being legit does not make it worth your time. Here is what you should know.
- There are few surveys
In my experience, you should not expect too many surveys. You have no control over how many invites you get, and you will not qualify for all of them. If there are no surveys, you earn nothing.
- Some readers report payout problems
Readers write about withdrawals that took longer than they expected and, in a few cases, redemptions that were rejected. If a withdrawal has not arrived after a week or so, contact MetroOpinion’s support.
- It never asks for your bank PIN or credit card
MetroOpinion asks you to create a password. A legit survey site never asks for your credit card details or the PIN of another account to join. If a site does, make sure you are on the official website.
- A long unpaid profile
There are a lot of profile questions, and you are not paid for them. You need to complete your profile to get survey invites, so set aside some time.
- Payout methods depend on your country
PayPal is not available everywhere. Check the payout methods in your country after you join, before you spend time on surveys.
My takeMetroOpinion is not a bad survey site, in my opinion. But it’s not that good, either. It can serve as a decent secondary site to join, provided you set your expectations properly. If you are looking for primary sites to earn from, I recommend the top survey and GPT sites in your country instead.
MetroOpinion has few surveys. The top sites in your country give you more ways to earn.
See the best sites in your countryHow you earn on MetroOpinion
There is only one way to earn: paid surveys.
Paid surveys$0.50 to $5 each
You get survey invites by email, with a link, how long the survey takes and what it pays. You can also log in and see all available surveys in the “Surveys” section.
You first give some basic information and answer qualifying questions. If you qualify, you answer the survey and get the promised reward. If you do not, you move on to the next survey, if there is one.
Complete your profile right away. It increases your chances of getting survey invites.

How much can you make?
A MetroOpinion survey pays $0.50 to $5, which is not a bad rate, in my opinion. But you will very rarely get surveys that pay $5, and you will not qualify for every survey you are invited to.
The bigger issue is that the site really does not offer a lot of surveys, and it has no other way to earn. So, in my experience, it is a bit hard to earn regular money from it.
Payout methods, minimum and fees
| Method | Minimum | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| PayPal | Typically $5 to $10, by country | 2% fee. Not available in every country. |
| Gift cards | Typically $5 to $10, by country | Options depend on your country |
| Donations | Typically $5 to $10, by country | Options depend on your country |
You earn in your own country’s currency, and the reward goes to your MetroOpinion balance. The payout methods depend on your country. MetroOpinion has no full overview per country. PayPal seems to be the most common, but it is not available everywhere.
If you want more sites with PayPal, see the top sites that pay via PayPal. If PayPal is not an option where you live, see platforms that pay via Payoneer.
What 245 readers told me
This review has 245 comments since 2021: 127 from readers and 118 replies from me. These are the four things readers ask about most.
Most come from Nigeria, Pakistan and Kenya. If MetroOpinion is not open in your country, you cannot register. My list of the best sites in your country has options for you.
Payout methods depend on your country. Check them after you join, before you spend time on surveys.
Readers waited for withdrawals or rewards, and a few had a redemption rejected. A withdrawal can take a few days. After a week or so, contact support.
There will not always be surveys available. That is the main reason MetroOpinion only works as a secondary site.
“From Nigeria can withdraw my earnings”
Mikael: If you can join from your country, you can also withdraw. But just make sure to check the exact payout methods available in your country after joining to make sure you like the options before spending time taking surveys.
“I placed a withdrawal on their website some days ago, still haven’t received it yet.”
Mikael: It can sometimes take some time. Especially if it is the first time you withdraw. But if you have not heard back after another week or so, try contacting their support.
“After completing sufficient surveys to redeem the value of $16, my attempt to redeem was rejected and I was kicked out and could not log in anymore.”
Mikael: Sorry to hear that. But thanks for sharing your experiences. Have you used VPN, rushed through surveys, or anything like that?
MetroOpinion alternatives I have tested
| Site | Best for | Min. cashout | My rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| PrizeRebel | Surveys, tasks and offers, with a very low threshold | $5 PayPal; some gift cards from $2 | 4.8 / 5 |
| ySense | Surveys and offers, open in most countries | $10 PayPal | 4.0 / 5 |
| Prime Opinion | Surveys only, fast payouts | $5 or $10, by country | 4.6 / 5 |

If you have any comments, questions, or experiences with MetroOpinion, I would love to hear from you in a comment below.
Looking for some extra money to ends meet, I want to try this. How?
I explain everything in the review above. But as I also mention, there are many better platforms to earn a bit of extra money, in my experience. Which country do you live in? Then I can suggest some options.
I will love to participate
I explain how it works and how to get started in the review above.
I’m really interested
I explain how it works and how to get started in the review above.
From Nigeria can withdraw my earnings
If you can join from your country, you can also withdraw. But just make sure to check the exact payout methods available in your country after joining to make sure you like the options before spending time taking surveys.
I placed a withdrawal on their website some days ago, still haven’t received it yet.
It can sometimes take some time. Especially if it is the first time you withdraw. But if you have not heard back after another week or so, try contacting their support.
Let me know how it goes.
This is actually my second time of placing a withdrawal, the first one came in Early, I’m been curious cause this is the second withdrawal I’m placing which has not come in yet.
Then it is probably best to contact their support again, as they can see exactly what is going on with your account.
Let me know how it goes.
Can I get such sites in Lesotho, even if the payment is in crypto?
You can check out this list of the best international sites which are the ones you should go for.

Not sure what you mean, but if you have any issues with your account, you need to contact their support.
I would love to join
I explain how to join in the review above.
It pays real money only for completeing simple task
Yes, it does, but there are many better options, in my opinion.
can you please tell me that which type of survey will send you?will we have to give answer of the question or i have to complete survey? on which bases we can qualify it.
I explain how it works in the review above.
ill participate..i like this
Let me know how it goes.
The biggest disadvantage for me is that it is nearly impossible to qualify in their surveys.
You can read about how to qualify for more surveys here.
What about Ghana, are there similar survey sites?

please i Live in Nigeria I Love to participate
I explain how it works in the review above.
Waiting for payment how long do you have to wait?
If you have waited more than a week, you can try contacting their support.
When you contact they said is not their responsibility for payment. Need to contact Cint AB and this will go in a never ending ping-pong situation. Cint AB just close the request and mark as ‘solved’ despite the fact they didn’t done the payment.
MetroOpinion is a hoax ! and a cheat. After completing sufficient surveys to redeem the value of $16, my attempt to redeem was rejected and I was kicked out and could not log in anymore. Be warned ! Avoid this cheat. I never got my money from completing all those surveys. When I emailed their support, they just said I could no longer log in and refused to respond to my questions as to why? Effectively they scammed me of my earnings doing the surveys
Sorry to hear that. But thanks for sharing your experiences.
Have you used VPN, rushed through surveys, or anything like that?
I am totally agree with you and I’m saying this based on my experience with them. They do not respect their engagement in terms of payment. Instead 1-4 working days to make the payment will take around 4 weeks. This fact says a lot .
payaso tenes que tener un umbral en el saldo para cobrar, tenes que leer en la pagina papa y te dice como es para cobrar.
I also do explain in the review above that you need to reach a threshold to withdraw so not sure what you refer to with your comment.
you owe me 3.38 for completing surveys and you took the money away? Why? now I believe this is a scam survey company.I have a balance of only 1,88 and would like to stop and cash in ty
You need to contact their support about this. I have nothing to do with the company and have just reviewed it, so I cannot help with this.
when i was putting my postcode then again and again asking same question and not detacting my post code
You need to ask their support about this.
Pls is there another survey site that is legit. Pls help
You can find a link to my top recommended options at the end of the review above.
Am now registering and it is requesting for my card details. Is it safe to provide those details in the registration process?
MetroOpinion will not ask for your credit card details to join. Are you sure it is the official website you are on? No legit survey site will ask for credit card details to join.
What code can I use as my postcode, I’m in Nigeria.
If you do not have a postal code, you need to contact their support.
Mike I don’t really have access shall I use VPN?
Using VPN on survey and Get-Paid-To sites is fraud, and you hurt a lot of people and businesses by doing this, and you are basically stealing from the site owners and this can not be justified for any reason, in my opinion. Also, most sites have strict security so they will find out when you use VPN, and they will block you, and you will lose your earnings. So if you want to use these sites, you have to do it honestly and stick to sites that are available in your country.
How many survey can you expect in a day
It depends on your country and profile and will vary from day to day. It can be anywhere from 0-15 surveys in a day.
i have answered n filled out my info but and clicked submit but no confirmation page message.
You need to contact their support about this.
I have answered demo surveys but the payment is not transferred for me
I have answer a survey and I have been credit with 0.50$, how can I transfer it to my bank account.
Am a Nigerian
There is a payout threshold you need to reach before you can withdraw. And this particular site also does not pay out via bank transfer. I explain everything in the review above.
What is the minimum earning after that I can withdraw my earnings through PayPal?
I explain everything in the review above.
Do you any reccomendations to any better paying survey sites?
Yes, you can find links for this at the end of the review above.
I tried to sign up but every time I sign in it says my username or password is incorrect and I know for a fact that I’m putting it in correctly. So I guess I’ll go somewhere else!
Yes, if you keep having issues like that, it is definitely better to just go to another site. There are plenty of good options to choose from.
Thank you for your candid responses to some of the commenters.
It really must get old.
You are welcome.
Paypal doesn’t work on my region. Is there another way of payment?

There will not alwasy be surveys available, as I explain in the review above.
I’ve already completed my profile so it’s time to answer Surveys but I can’t not answer my surveys is telling me they are sorry that there’s no survey available why
There will not always be surveys available as I expain in the review above. That is why it is a good idea to join several survey sites.
Is the MetroOpinion legit Cuase it has asked me my account number and pin?
I explain everything in the review above. But it will not ask you for your pin. It will ask you to create a password for your account there but will not ask for any private info like that from other accounts.
If someone’s asking for your PIN then that’s a scam

Which app pay 10$ to20par day name of which app
I have a video about the fastest way to earn $10 per day online with free methods here: https://youtu.be/BLZHaw_xDQU
Interested
Pls help me I don’t know were to start
I explain everything in the review above.
Sir best website name which payment 100$ par day please name of website .
To make that kind of money online, you need to be willing to take the time to slowly build up an actual business. You cannot find any sites where you will just start getting $100 per day right away. That is just not realistic.
In which app to 100$ par day name of which app
As explained above, your expectations are NOT realistic. You cannot just find an app that will make you $100 per day. That is not how it works to make money online and you need to do it with the right expectations.
Am in Kenya is it available here …but currently in saudia Arabia….i always get their invite on surveys but my country isn’t listed

MetroOpinion is a website that build you a little money, which is better than nothing.
You are right that it does not give huge earnings.
