User Testing: Get Paid to Test Websites, or Hire Testers for Yours

Learn how to become an approved Legiit tester and get paid for website tests, or fund tester spots to get real video feedback on your site or funnel.

Written by Jennifer England

User Testing lets businesses pay real people to try their website and share feedback. Approved testers claim a test, follow the steps, and submit a recorded walkthrough. Payment is held in escrow and released when the business approves the work.


How to become a tester

  1. Click User Testing in the top menu.

  2. Do a short sample test on any local business website (e.g. booking an appointment, finding contact details, etc.)
    ​

  3. Fill in the Website URL, your Walkthrough Video Link (Loom, YouTube, Google Drive or similar) and your Description of Findings.
    ​

  4. Click Submit Application. Our team reviews it, usually within 24 hours.
    ​

  5. Once you're approved, click Go to Testing Marketplace to see open tests.


How to complete a test

  1. In the Testing Marketplace, find a test that suits you. You can filter by device and pay.

  2. Click to View & Claim a spot.

  3. Follow the instructions and record your screen while you talk through your thoughts.

  4. Submit your video link and notes before the countdown ends.

  5. You get paid once the business approves your submission.


How to hire testers

  1. In your Command Center, go to Growth → User Testing and click Create New Test.
