Everything you need to know about earning, M-Pesa payouts, and getting the most out of LegitSurveys.
Yes. LegitSurveys is a legitimate market research platform that connects Kenyans with real research panels. We never charge a joining fee, and every payout goes straight to your M-Pesa number — there's no reason to pay us anything to "unlock" your earnings.
The minimum withdrawal amount is KSh 200. Once your balance reaches this threshold, you can request a payout directly to your M-Pesa number from your dashboard.
Most payouts are processed instantly to within a few hours after you request them. In rare cases of high demand it can take up to 24 hours, but you'll always see the status in your dashboard.
Surveys are matched to specific demographics that research partners are looking for. If your profile doesn't match — for example, your age group, location, or an early screening question — you may be screened out partway through. This is normal and doesn't affect your account standing.
Earnings depend on how many surveys you qualify for and complete. Most surveys pay between KSh 100 and KSh 150, and active users who check in daily typically earn the most since new surveys are added regularly.
Complete your full profile (age, location, interests, and income bracket) so we can match you to more research studies. Checking your dashboard daily and answering screening questions honestly also increases the number of surveys you qualify for.
