- [R3] Zap Surveys No payment yet: The site/app said payment was sent on 10/09/2022 to my email. It’s not there. What’s the issue I did the work now can I get my money. Please and Thank you.
- [R33] Zap Surveys Payment: I finally am ready to cash out to PayPal, and I have to send a copy of my ID AND a selfie. This doesn’t sit quite well with me to send these items. I’ve been doing surveys for over two years and none of the companies requested my PHOTO ID to cash out. I am waiting for customer service to reply to me about this. It’s not like we’re getting paid hundreds of dollars. Until I get this resolve
- [R35] Zap Surveys Cash outs: Love ZAP “except” when it comes to “CASH OUTS”… been having problems getting the cash out email from Zap.. other than that all else is well!
- [R4] Zap Surveys Survey cut short: Too much non low paying survey’s. Too many questions answered before you decide I’m not a good candidate for the survey
- [R5] Zap Surveys Zap: You take a survey Answer most of the questions It takes 15 minutes then it says sorry your not the right fit After you did the whole survey They give you 2 cents instead of the 53 It’s a scam Happens to most of the survey

- [R9] Zap Surveys Amount: To much time and little money but still after a few days I can Get 10$
- [R10] Zap Surveys Pays out very little: The app used to be much better than it is today (January 2025). Tonight I spent 55 minutes filling out surveys only to earn two cent. It’s ridiculous.
- [R12] Zap Surveys Survey failing to load: Please zap is suppose to have upgraded their platform since theirs no options to use website . At least provide refresh on your page when doing survey and the survey platform keep rolling even without doing survey . Sometimes surveys do hangs and no options to refresh the website to load automatically. I have ended losing a lot of point. Because I had to quit the survey

- [R21] Zap Surveys Miss Damina: They are awesome they give you payout and they have some high paying surveys
- [R8] Zap Surveys Zap Surveys: First of all, I enjoy taking surveys and I especially like to take zap surveys because you get paid at least a few cents even if you get in a situation where you are screened out. It’s a quick and fun way to make extra cash. I like the fact that your surveys not only tell you the time it should take you to complete the survey but they are much more accurate than some other survey site
