Share Your Opinions to Earn Rewards

Opinion Outpost gives everyday consumers the opportunities to participate in online surveys and product tests in exchange for cash rewards and gift cards.

Signing up is free and to do so, simply enter your name, date of birth, zip code and email address on the registration form on their website. After that, you’ll be prompted to confirm your email address before you’re able to begin answering surveys.

Take Surveys and More

Once you've fully registered, you’ll see a “Surveys” link on your main account dashboard. This will take you to your list of available surveys. You can choose to have surveys emailed to you if you prefer.

You also have the option to add additional information (via profile surveys) to help Opinion Outpost match you with more relevant surveys to you.

Earn Great Rewards for Participating

Sign up with Opinion Outpost to take paid surveys and complete product testing assignments in exchange for rewards. Simply join the site for free and receive invitations to complete online surveys on your computer or mobile device.

You don't have to wait long to get rewarded - if you take a survey worth 50 points, you'll already have enough to redeem a $5 Amazon.com gift card. The following reward options are offered on the site in exchange for participating:

• PayPal payments - with only 100 points (worth $10/£5), you can request that a PayPal payment be made to your account. Bear in mind that only verified PayPal accounts will qualify for payment.
• Amazon e-vouchers - with just 50 points ($5) in your account, you can request an Amazon.com e-gift code.
• Apple Store gift cards - with 100 points ($10) sitting in your account, you can request an app store / iTunes gift card.
• Retail gift cards - with 100 points ($10) in your account, you can receive a gift card to Nike, Domino’s Pizza, The Home Depot, CVS, Chili’s 3-Choice and more.
• Visa prepaid cards - with 100 points ($10) in your account, you can purchase a virtual Visa prepaid card to spend online or add to your smartphone app for offline spending.

Note that rewards will vary slightly by country. For example, Air Miles Reward Miles are available to Canadian members only (receive 50 Air Miles for 100 Opinion Outpost points).

Super-Fast Rewards Delivery

Opinion Outpost is very unique in that rewards are often delivered instantly after requesting them. It's uncommon to have to wait more than a few minutes/hours to receive a PayPal payment or e-gift card that you've requested, though technically they advertise a 3 day rewards processing period.

Take Surveys Often

Paid surveys will be sent to you on a regular basis. You can also visit the website, log in and find a list of available surveys, giving you plenty of chances to make cash. A typical Opinion Outpost survey takes 10-15 minutes to complete and the number of points you can expect to receive per survey ranges between 5 to 50 points.

Qualifying Questions

Before you begin your chosen survey, you may have to answer a series of multiple-choice questions. These may appear to be irrelevant to the topic of the survey itself, but are a way for researchers to ensure they're receiving responses from the people they're looking for answers from. Sometimes, you’ll be disqualified from taking the survey after answering these, however there will usually be other surveys available for you to take.

Modern, Interactive Surveys

Opinion Outpost offers fun, interactive online surveys that are attractive and simple to take. On top of offering sweepstakes entries, periodically, they offer games at the end of surveys which give you the opportunity to win additional points and/or additional sweepstakes entries. One such game is called the Opinion Outpost Door Game.

Opinion Outpost App

Opinion Outpost does not offer a mobile app. Although most of their surveys are mobile-friendly and can be completed on your phone, you will still need to access them via your e-mail, or by logging into the website from your phone.

Badges

Opinion Output offers ‘Badges’, which essentially serve as loyalty bonuses. You will start out with a Bronze membership and have the chance to upgrade to Silver, Gold, Platinum or Diamond based on how active you are on the website and how complete your profile is.

As your badge levels increase, additional achievement points are awarded, which can be found on your Survey History page. These will show up as 'community achievement'. Bear in mind that you can be downgraded to a lower tier badge if you don’t remain active on the website.

Quarterly Chances to Win $10,000

If you are in the USA and you get disqualified from a survey, participate in a survey, or exchange your valuable points for an entry, you will have a chance to win $10,000 in a quarterly cash draw. That means that $40,000 in total is awarded to 4 lucky members every year! If you are in Canada, there are also sweepstakes available in the form of 4 quarterly draws worth $1,250 each ($5,000 yearly).

Refer Your Friends to Earn More

Opinion Outpost's referral program will award you $1.00 every time you refer a friend using your custom link and they complete at least one survey. Earn up to $5.00 in total. Find the "refer a friend" tab when you log into your account to grab your custom referral link to share with friends or extended family members (available to US panelists only).

Opinion Outpost I'd great on surveys. They are easy to qualify for and are not long. They pay a decent amount of points per survey. I dont like the survey cap, but without it , it would be one of the highest paid survey sites out. Or is that the case? I was recently frozen. I cant log into my account or redeem my points for cash. It was 954 points.

I was a member for quite a few months, made decent money that I received almost immediately, and besides my Pinecone account, I thought highly of this site. Then it happened! My account was deactivated one day after I successfully cashed out at $5 for an Amazon egift card. No explanation or warning. I went to their site to do some surveys and I couldn't access my account. I emailed them only to be told they had elected to permanently deactivate my account. In round about terms they accused me of not being who I said I was by 3rd parties. What?! Who are these 3rd parties and how could they possibly know anything about my character and moral?! I resented this and told them so. My account was never reinstated. Months later I am still upset because no other site has done this to me. Perhaps I should do what others have done to get reinstated, write to BBB.
Today I wrote an email to a Susan with sampling surveys. We will see where this gets me. If it goes unanswered then I definitely will go to BBB with this. I see many reviews stating the same issue. What is Opinion Outpost's PROBLEM. At this point they do not deserve a one star rating, but we don't have the option to click on 'no stars deserved'.

*Edit 10/17/2019
To this date I cannot get this site to respond to my emails, which I no longer bother with, and that is a poor business practice. Oh to be as perfect as Opinion Outpost, and that we could judge people, use them and then throw them away. It would be nice if they bothered to explain their decisions and why they came to the decision that they did. But no, instead they are ignoring, seem self righteous and just bad business practices. Just check out their star rating on Survey Police and read the reviews. Apparently they practice this deactivation business quite often. Why hasn't anyone looked into this yet? It is obvious there is an issue here.

I believe this used to be a good site, but something happened at some point, and recently, I have found that when one completes a survey there is about a 50/50 chance it will redirect properly, if it does, then super, if it does not then you find yourself having to spend more time emailing for the few points offered. Also if you are seeking a survey site which has no issue with putting fraudulent times on surveys this site is for you. More than a few times, I have run across a survey which says 5 points(50 cents) for one minute, but when you access the survey it is magically now a 15-20 minute survey. When I inquired, I got the generic answer saying the times are estimates. but please One minute or 20, I think that is pretty general
