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+

Useless for UK members

October 14, 2014 by kathryn from United Kingdom

Virtually no rewards available most of the time and nothing in UK £ Sterling for over 2 years.
When available the prepaid Visa cards have increased substantially in value over the last 18 months also.

Bad Survey Matching

October 2, 2014 by robert from United States

Oh yeah, when I'm 95% done with a survey I get redirected to myview and get disqualified. ON AN HOUR LONG SURVEY! Screw this site.

Best Survey Panel

September 30, 2014 by Minoo from United States

I have been with my view for a few months and I have joined a few before, but I have to say My View is the best survey site so far. I love them.

One of the best, if not the best

September 28, 2014 by Lorraine from United States

This is a survey company that really cares about its panelists. They assign earned points immediately and accurately. There were only very few cases in which I had to contact them to resolve a survey issue. They have always responded with short delay. This is my favorite survey company by far.

Still Going Strong

September 24, 2014 by Yusef from United States

The only downside to MyView is that they've stopped offering Paypal sometime in the past 5 years. That said, if you're going to join a site that deals primarily in gift cards, there are very few who do it better than MyView.

They are a company that respects your time and this shows in how they reward you just for attempting surveys. Disqualified? 100 points. Quota full? 100 points. Survey already has enough responses? 100 points, Closed but thanks for clicking? 100 points. Oftentimes, failing to qualify offers a better time/point ratio than the smaller paying surveys, which usually offer 400 points for a 10-minute survey, and roughly 200 points for each additional 5 minutes the survey is expected to require. The better paying surveys can give you anywhere between 1000 to 4000 points for anywhere between 5-25 minutes of your time.

Support and Feedback responds very quickly. They are happy to fix any problems you may have had and do reimburse you any points you might not have been duly credited.

Amazon Gift Cards and Visa Prepaid cards are probably the most flexible rewards. 33950 points are required for the 25$ card. The 50$ card (VISA only starts being available at this tier) is the most efficient regarding points per value (costs slightly less points than it would take to redeem for two 25$ cards, but the difference isn't that much unlike with, say, epoll).

Give them a try. MyView has been here for a good while, and will continue to be here showing the bad survey sites how it's done, points, cash, or otherwise.
