The Best Times to Take Surveys for Maximum Availability
Timing is everything when it comes to survey availability. Discover when new surveys are released and how to catch the highest-paying opportunities.
Survey timing can significantly impact your earning potential. Understanding when surveys are released and when to check for new opportunities can mean the difference between qualifying for a high-paying survey or missing out entirely.
Peak Survey Release Times
Based on data from millions of surveys on our platform, here are the peak release times:
Early Morning (6 AM - 9 AM)
Many surveys go live early as companies start their workday. This is prime time for B2B and professional surveys.
Lunchtime (12 PM - 2 PM)
A second wave of surveys typically launches during lunch hours. These often target working professionals who might complete surveys during breaks.
Evening (6 PM - 8 PM)
Consumer-focused surveys often launch in the evening when people are home and have time to participate.
Day of the Week Patterns
Monday and Tuesday
Highest volume of new surveys as companies launch weekly research initiatives. Competition is moderate.
Wednesday through Friday
Steady flow of surveys. Thursday often sees specialized surveys with higher payouts.
Weekends
Fewer new surveys but less competition. Existing surveys may have more open slots.
Seasonal Trends
January - March
High survey volume as companies plan for the year. Many market research budgets refresh.
April - June
Moderate activity with focus on summer product planning and quarterly reviews.
July - August
Slightly lower volume but often higher-paying surveys due to less competition.
September - November
Increasing activity leading to holiday season. Retail and consumer products dominate.
December
Lower volume but often higher pay rates. End-of-year budget spending.
Optimal Check-in Strategy
For maximum earnings, check for new surveys:
- First thing in the morning (7-8 AM)
- During lunch break (12-1 PM)
- In the evening (6-7 PM)
Enable push notifications to be alerted immediately when new surveys match your profile.
Time Zone Considerations
Surveys are released based on various time zones. Being in Eastern or Central time zones often provides first access to morning surveys.
Quality Over Quantity
While checking frequently helps, focus on quality completion. One $20 survey completed well is better than five $2 surveys rushed through.
By aligning your survey-taking with these optimal times, you'll maximize both quantity and quality of survey opportunities.
