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+

Decent

December 17, 2010 by Mark from United States

I have done pretty good with MyView. I joined at the end of Oct. I have already cashed out twice 25.00 visa and 25.00 amazon. They pay promptly and most times for me its easy to qualify. Not as good as Opinion Outpost but still fairly decent. I notice now that their rewards are not showing Amazon any more why I am not sure but its not there. They have a pretty good set of choices and the rewards arent terribly difficult. Only problem is sometimes the points paid for surveys SUCKS. 15 or 20 min surveys for 350-700 points which is just pennies. It takes 35000 for a 25 dollar visa card so go figure.

Not So Bad When You Qualify

October 15, 2010 by E from United States

This is a legitimate site offering points for surveys, that can eventually add up to either a gift card or a donation to your favorite charity. They are so specific about requirements, though, that it is not uncommon to quickly test out of a lot of surveys. When you do qualify, though, the survey is pretty good and worth the time put in. At least you never put in more than a few questions before finding out you tested out, unlike some other sites that let you go through 70 percent of the survey first.

I miss the old MyView!!!

September 17, 2010 by RaNita from United States

I've been a member on and off since 2005 when they were Survey Direct. Payment was through paypal which was very convenient. I was somehow booted from the panel for awhile when they switched to MyView and wasn't able to become a member again until last year. I am pleased at how quickly you receive the "virtual gift card", but I would still rather have the choice of paypal as an option for payout. I can say that customer service responded in a few days when i emailed them which was nice.

The Best Site by FAR~

September 17, 2010 by Jennifer from United States

I love MyView, I have so far received a 25$ prepaid visa, a 75$ prepaid visa, a 50$ restaraunt.com gift card and a 10$ check for participating in a product research study. I have only been a member since January!! This is the BEST survey site ever and I just love it. You get rewarded even if you don't qualify, which is great!!

Don't always get rewarded...

September 17, 2010 by Jamie from United States

I've been a member with MyView for 7 months. In those 7 months I have reached one $25 payout. Thank goodness it was before the incentive switch over. But I keep getting surveys that I take and complete and the survey thanks me for completing it, but then when I click to get back to MyView it tells me it is closed and I won't receive rewards for it. Well Hello, MyView is the one that offered me the survey in the first place, so if it was closed why did I spend my time doing an useless survey. I've contacted their customer service and they say they can't do anything about it. Oh well, I guess I won't be doing anymore surveys for them.
