Rewards for Surveys

You’ll earn between 50 ($0.50) and 300 ($3) points for each survey you complete, depending on its length. Some surveys do not award points, but rather, offer donations to charities. These surveys are usually quite short and can be taken on an almost daily basis! You will be notified before the start of the survey, if the survey is offering you rewards (points) or asking for your opinion for charitable donations, before you begin.

Once you’ve earned a minimum of $10, you can redeem your points for rewards including Amazon.com vouchers, Visa prepaid debit cards, cash via PayPal, restaurant gift cards, and more.

Rewards for Watching Videos and Reviewing Advertisements

OpinionWorld gives you the opportunity to earn points by watching videos and offering your feedback on video advertisements. The rewards are minimal, but it’s a nice low-effort addition to the website that you might enjoy and can help you reach your cash out goals sooner.

Real World Missions

Depending on your location, you might be able to earn points by completing ‘real world missions’ while you’re out and about.

Most missions of this nature involve sharing information about shops and other customer-serving businesses. You'll need to connect your mobile device in order to participate.

Redeeming Points

The minimum points or dollars redemption threshold is $10 USD (or equivalent in Canada), unless there is a lower redemption option available for a certain reward. Threshold amounts vary in countries outside of the US and Canada. The points conversion is 100-1. This means that the value of every point is $0.01. So if you have 250 points in your account, it will be worth $2.50 (though this amount may vary if you are outside the USA).

Members who choose to redeem their earnings by PayPal or for an e-gift certificate, often receive their payments instantaneously, or within a few hours. Physical gift cards usually take approximately 2 weeks for processing and mailing.

Surveys vary in length, however most surveys take between 10-15 minutes to complete. You can expect to receive paid surveys in your inbox anywhere from once a week to once a month, depending on your demographic profile.

I spend two months to accumulate 5000pts (50euro). Disappointed and frustrated for my account to be terminated when I'm already processing redemption. Technically, just wasted my time. Better check reviews and ratings of a website before signing up.

****UPDATE****
Got my account reinstated after 5 days and got my $50 gift card after 10 days. So far, they made sure to make it up. Kudos for those who did their jobs. But I hope this wont happen again to me, and to others.

I felt very strongly to share my experience with this survey website. My wife referred this survey panel to me and it has frequent surveys and easy to cash out. Yes it was very true until the first cash out.

Then everything starts to slow down, surveys start to get lesser and lesser. Then one fine day, I decided to log on to check my account after days of no survey invitations. Only then I discovered that my account has been terminated for the same standard template of reasons as the rest.

I am on other survey panels for years and Opinion World is the first panel to terminate my membership. I emailed to them for the reason, they replied that they will investigate and get back me in 3 days and after 3 weeks were passed and nothing was heard from them.

There was certainty a lack of transparency and professionalism in their operations. If they felt that I did not answer the survey up to their expectations, they could well do not award the survey points and reduce my credit ratings, so that I was aware that the quality of my answers was not up to their expectation and I will be more careful next time. However, they choose to quietly and silently terminating my membership, forfeiting all my remaining points.

I just cannot help wondering their real motive behind this. If the survey was completed successful, they will get payout from the company that engage them and by secretly terminate the membership of the persons who did the survey, they can pocket all these payout.

For the rest out there, if you have not joined, you still can join but only till the first payout. After that don't waste time on it.

I have used OpionWorld multiple times, and have been rewarded vouchers for my trouble. The last time i went to do this however, had my account terminated for no reason. After 2 months of emailing back and fourth they reinstated my account, so i quickly spent my remaining points on rewards. These never arrived and i have been terminated again for no reason! it seems this is a pattern, they let you do heaps of surveys to earn points, and then as soon as you go to redeem them, they terminate your account, but keep all the information you provided to them under the impression you will be rewarded fairly for your time. NOT ON OPINION WORLD!

Completed survey about pest control then tried to redeem a voucher and the account was terminated with no explanation. There seems to be a trend of survey providers who of course are getting paid to host surveys and have no intention of remunerating the people that have completed their surveys.
