Redeeming Your Points

1,000 points are the equivalent of $10 USD. You need at least 1,000 points to begin redeeming your rewards. Points are generally rewarded once the survey has been completed, but in some cases, points will be rewarded after the survey closes (which could take up to 3 months).

  • exchange your points for a payment to your PayPal account. 1,000 points = $10 PayPal payment

Bonus Sweepstakes Opportunities

Every month, a few members are randomly selected to receive 10,000 points in exchange for being active on MySurvey. You receive an entry into the sweepstakes when you join the MySurvey panel and participate in panel activities (surveys, quick matches, mini polls or other activities offered).

For certain surveys completed, you will receive an entry into this same sweepstakes. The more you participate, the better your chances of winning the draw. The quarterly draw is for the following prizes: (1) reward of 500 Panel Points, (2) rewards of $250 Panel Points and (100) rewards of $10 Panel Points. If you win, you will be notified via email within 10 days of the draw.

Eligibility: Must be age 16+ to participate in USA, 14+ in Canada. Other countries may vary.

Note: The MySurvey and Lightspeed panels merged into one and are now simply known as "MySurvey."

One of the worst

May 15, 2011 by Derek from United States

This survey site is total crap.Just the other day I wasted over a hour doing a survey for them only to have it bug out at the very end.I ended up getting nothing for wasting a hour on their mind numbingly boring and repetitive survey.Bugged surveys are almost daily with them,I've gotten ripped off for at least 20 surveys since i've been with them.Their incentives are terrible too.

Shell of its Former (Lightspeed) Self

May 9, 2011 by Ellen from United States

I agree with the previous reviewers who commented on the change from Lightspeed to MySurvey. Same surveys, and the incentives are about 30% of what they were before. Moreover, the list of available surveys doesn't specify the reward for each. You have to start the survey to find out what the incentive is. Receiving $.50 to take a 25 minute survey is a waste of time. I'm done.

ehhh...

April 8, 2011 by James from United States

LightSpeed used to be my favorite survey panel, but since they merged with MySurvey.com, I'd have to say I'm unimpressed. The surveys are pretty much the same as before, many are about your reactions to tv commercials. However the incentives aren't quite as good as they were with LightSpeed. I usually get a few surveys from them every day, and qualify for a little less than half of them. They still pay promptly thru PayPal. I dont mind taking a 20 minute survey for 150 pts, which translates to about $1.40, but sometimes they only offer 50 pts for the same length survey, which to me is a waste of time. However I've also seen 300 point surveys that last around 25-30 mins so I guess they vary based on topic. Overall they are still a legit survey site and I'll continue to answer their surveys for the time being.

Uh oh!

March 18, 2011 by P.Doffe from Australia

In addition to the posts by Cybil and N. I've only been with these guys for a while, everything started out really cool until I was 95% through a recent survey, received an error message and got booted off... and "no points"! I hope this isn't common? And yes, they also haven't replied to me about this, and still no points for the 95% I did complete! Yikes! PS: The incentives are pretty crappy too! Uh oh!

Not happy

February 19, 2011 by Cybil from United States

I am really hoping to be able to change my review as I have always liked My Survey. Twice this week I have spent over 30 minutes taking a 75 point survey only to receive an error message at the end and not receive the credit I was due. After emailing them twice about the incidents I have yet to receive the points or a simple reply. I am very upset about this and hope they get their "errors" straitened out or I will be canceling my account. My time is worth a lot more then this.
