REDEEMING REWARDS

13,000 points (worth ~$10) required to redeem rewards. Some rewards require 34,000 points ($25 worth) to request rewards.

Note: On May 1, 2017, MyView merged with its sister sister site, OneOpinion.

MyView is owned and operated by Critical Mix, which was established back in 1996. This panel provides a unique community where panelists can meet others that share the same passions all while taking surveys and earning rewards! Take advantage of this fun, thought-provoking panel.

Unfortunately, MyView is no longer operational. Click the button to discover survey panels that are running and are actively looking for new members!

Gift Cards Galore!

MyView is a gift card lovers haven, as they offer dozens of gift card options from many different retailers including Amazon, Wal-Mart, iTunes, Shell, TJ Maxx, and more. Gift cards typically come in $20, $50, and $100 increments. Some gift cards are mailed to members; others are sent by e-mail in the form of an e-voucher. Minimum redemption is $10.

Cash or Charity Donations

MyView also offers the option to redeem your points towards cash or donations to charity. A PrePaid Visa/Mastercard can be collected once your account reaches $100. Donations can be made to many local charities; the choice is yours!

Receive Points for Disqualifications

MyView offers a generous 100 points for when members attempt surveys but are unable to complete them due to disqualification.

Daily Surveys

Daily surveys are often available to members if they log in to their accounts to check for surveys. Most online survey opportunities will be e-mailed, however those wishing to take additional surveys will find it beneficial to log directly into their accounts to check for available surveys.

Sweepstakes Opportunities

Each month MyView gives away $2000 worth of prizes in the form of one $1000 winner and five winners of $200. All panel members have a chance to win!

Teen Friendly Surveys

This panel offers many teen oriented surveys, as you need to be 13+ to join. This is a great way for teens to make a little bit of extra money and to feel like they are making a difference.

Take Polls, or Even Create your Own

MyView offers the opportunity to explore the panelist community through taking polls. You may even create your own poll question if there is something you want to know.

Eligibility: Select countries accepted, 13+

They don't pay, just give excuses

April 30, 2015 by Darlene from United States

Only use this site if you want to do surveys for free. I cashed out and waited over six weeks to get my gift card which never came. I called and they admitted they never sent it, but will send one immediately from their parent, Critical Mix. That one never came either, and they admitted it was never sent, but, for my trouble, they will send me TWO cards by two-day FEDEX. Well, that never happened either. They are liars and cheats. I am almost ready to cash out again, but I don't have a lot of hope of getting paid for the new or the old cash out.

I like this site. I got 3 $25 gift cards in a couple months with hard work. On some sites there is no way to get even 1 $25 gift card in a couple months.

I like that you get 100 points even if you don't do the survey.

I gave them ample opportunity to rectify this.

"Looking for a faster option?" Then don't bother with MyView. One year ago, they promised physical Visa gift cards in 7-10 days. This was supposedly a better option than less than 24 hours with an e-card. Their strained logic behind that aside, at some point this became 4-6 weeks. They apparently can no longer deliver in that time frame. I have been in contact with them via email over the last week or so regarding not receiving the promised Visa card- among other things I have been offered a return of my accumulated points to my account (this one was particularly laughable- why would I want my points back? So you could not send me the next thing I order?), a Visa card to arrive in 15 business days (wait, what?- wasn't your original offer "faster" in 7-10 days?), a PayPal payment (I accepted this offer- yet have not received the payment), and finally, the "Looking for a Faster Option" option of a card within 7-10 days. So- wait six weeks, and we might send you a card that will get there in 7-10 days. If this makes you both want to laugh and cry at the same time, you aren't the only one. Buyer beware.

It's In The Mail!

April 2, 2015 by Michael from United States

The fact that they have changed to a PHYSICAL gift card has made this site not one of the better ones online. That and the fact that the gift cards can get "lost in the mail" - which is the excuse I received when my card didn't arrive, even after multiple contacts with their customer service rep and a 3 month wait.

Please tell us about yourself

March 1, 2015 by Debbie from United States

The past 5 or more surveys offered when I get to the "tell us about yourself" screen it asks to list the highest level of education your have completed. It then asks what year of college are you in now. I am not in college so to answer the question truthfully I cannot get into the survey. So have missed out on at least trying for quite a few surveys.
