Redeem Your e-Rewards Currency

In most cases, your account will be credited as soon as you complete a survey. However, in some cases the credit may take up to 7 days to appear on your account. Similarly, e-Rewards sends most electronic gift cards immediately upon request (within one hour). Most physical gift cards will be sent out within 4-6 weeks of redemption.

e-Rewards also requires mobile and landline verification in order to redeem your rewards. This verification helps you keep your rewards secure.

Once you provide your number, you will receive a verification code via that number that you will need to enter in order to finalize the redemption process.

You can redeem your e-Rewards Currency/Opinion Points as soon as you accumulate enough to qualify for the reward you desire (the lowest gift card option is $10).

Tired of the lies

August 19, 2021 by Constance from United States

Amazingly I'm not one of the MANY people who had their accounts terminated when they tried to cashout. If you are unaware of this serious situation, read through hundreds of people posting on here about it happening to them. I also know someone who logged into their account to see a message claiming they had cancelled the account themselves, which was obviously false since he had unredeemed earnings in his account. Nobody cancels their own account before cashing out their earnings! But I guess that's something new that's happening maybe so they can try to lower their stats of terminated accounts in case a class action suit happens. Regardless, although I know people who have had their account terminated or "cancelled" during the past couple years, that's not the purpose of my review.

What I've become completely fed up with is how e-Rewards lies about the surveys they offer to you. For example, let's say their invitation to a survey offers $3 of e-Rewards currency (~$1 in real money value) for a "5 minute" survey. You think that's not bad so you click on it. Firstly, before you ever get to the actual survey site, they send you to their site to answer a few minutes of their own general questions supposedly to help find other surveys for you. That wouldn't be so bad but a) it happens before every single survey and b) half they questions are either already answered in your profile or you've repeatedly answered the same question several times recently. So that's all usually a waste of time, every time. Then you finish that and finally get transferred to the actual survey. And, I am not kidding you, on the very first page of it, the people behind the survey will give you the real estimate of how much time it takes. Keeping with the example above, they tell you it should take 10-15 minutes. In other words, 2-3 times as long as what e-Rewards claimed. By the time you finish everything, the pre-survey questions + the actual survey questions, that 5 minutes initially quoted is often more like 15 minutes. $1 of real world value for 15 minutes equals $4 an hour. I could give you more example but you get the idea. The total times spent is often much longer than the invitation said and turns out to not have been worth your time. And I think e-Rewards knows that, which is why they routinely show a survey time which is way less than the actual survey tells you it will take right at the beginning of the survey. And e-Rewards has to see that when they publish the survey yet instead of honestly quoting the time the survey creators provided, they show routinely show much shorter, completely unrealistic times instead. And I can say they are unrealistic both from personal experience and the undeniable fact that e-Rewards themselves have terminated numerous accounts using a reason of rushing through surveys. It's a no-win situation. Either be prepared to spend way more time on surveys than advertised and/or be prepared to have your account terminated for rushing through them trying to finish within the time they initially said it would take.

Dynata and E-rewards are Disgraceful

March 13, 2021 by Steve from United States

Like so many others here, I was a very long time member of this panel for over 15 years. Recently my account was paused. When I inquired why, they gave me the same multiple bogus responses like everyone else - multiple accounts, accuracy of answers, profile information, etc, all of which were patently untrue. After a few emails, they said they suspended my account. I had a balance of over $700 which they refused to pay out. It is unconscionable that they kept this money after working on hours of diligent survey responses. Not only that, but they also suspended my account on the Oneopinion panel as well which had a $600 balance. Dynata now owns both of these companies. I checked the Better Business Bureau's web site and there were over 1,000 similar complaints filed against Dynata along with poor customer reviews. Dynata's larger clients are subject of many of the surveys that include Disney, NBC Universal, JD Power, Carl's Jr., Microsoft, Apple, US Bank and many others. Anyone who has been terminated in a similar situation should consider emailing these companies who pay Dynata for these surveys and let them know how outrageous these actions are against panelists. Then urge them to suspend their marketing efforts with Dynata so they can partner with more reputable survey companies.

Permanently Suspended??

February 9, 2021 by Chris from United States

One day I stop getting surveys and when I reach out to ask why I am informed that my account is now permanently suspended“ after reviewing the accuracy and attentiveness of your account activity.” I had been too attentive and was doing too many surveys or I lied? I was honest in all my responses and once I was just shy of cashing out points for one of the bigger gift cards they offer it was suspended. It seems like they just didn’t want to pay?

Rewards taken by site

January 1, 2021 by brian from United States

E-Rewards took $175.00 worth of credits from me. Account suspended for no legitimate reason. I had been with them for nine years. Avoid this survey site. Very dishonest.
