If you want to know how to get more surveys on Qmee, the answer isn’t finding them. Qmee always has surveys. The hard part is not getting declined or screened out. I cashed out $298.16 from Qmee in 32 payouts, and screen-outs were my biggest problem.
Here are Qmee’s 13 official survey tips, with my take on each, plus 4 of my own.

Why You Get Declined on Qmee
Survey providers watch how you answer. If you rush, give answers that don’t match your profile, or look like a duplicate user, they decline you or even ban you. On top of that, Qmee’s matching isn’t great, so you’ll get screened out of surveys you were never a fit for.
How to Get More Surveys on Qmee: Qmee’s 13 Tips
1. Avoid speeding
Rushing gets you declined, and sometimes banned from that survey provider. Take your time, even when the questions feel repetitive.
2. Pay attention
Surveys have attention checks. Don’t multitask.
3. Be honest
Even a small lie can get you declined. There’s no reason to lie to get into a survey.
4. Answer questions clearly and coherently
For written answers, give a real response, not gibberish.
5. Don’t use offensive language
6. Don’t use a VPN
Providers can detect VPNs, proxies and Tor, and they’ll treat you as fraudulent.
7. Keep your profile up to date
Mine is 100% complete:
Keep it accurate, but don’t change it too often. Qmee says frequent changes can look fraudulent.
8. Only have one Qmee account
Two accounts can get both banned.
9. Only use Qmee in allowed countries
Don’t take surveys while traveling abroad.
10. Avoid shared WiFi
If someone else on your WiFi also uses Qmee, you can look like a duplicate. Use mobile data if you have to.
11. Take surveys during sociable hours
The most surveys are available during weekday office hours. Late at night, surveys hit their quotas faster, which means more declines.
12. Turn off ad blockers
13. Keep your browser updated
I did almost all my surveys on the Qmee app, so this mainly matters if you use the website.
My Own 4 Tips
14. Set your expectations about the pay
This is my main tip. Qmee pays about $2.50 an hour after screen-outs, and it took me 8 hours or more to earn $25. Go in knowing that, so you don’t burn out.
15. Buckle up for screen-outs 20 to 30 minutes into a survey
This will happen. You’ll be 20 to 30 minutes into a survey and get screened out. You’ll get a smaller payment, not the full reward. Don’t let it make you rush the next survey, or you’ll get declined for speeding.
16. Turn on the Webcam and PII survey filters
Qmee lets you choose whether to see surveys that need a webcam or ask for personal info, like your name or email. I turned both on to see more surveys:
I haven’t taken a webcam survey yet, but turning these on gives you more options.
17. Keep your day streak going
Take at least one survey a day to build your streak and unlock a 10% bonus. It won’t change the hourly much (I was still around $2.50), but it’s free extra money.
My Verdict: Can You Really Get More Surveys on Qmee?
