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.

Survey Lengths

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.

Get More Relevant Surveys

In order to receive more surveys and more relevant surveys, it's highly encouraged to complete the My Profile section in your account with OpinionWorld. These profilers are short surveys, which will better match you to more relevant surveys, and will help you get selected first for surveys that you are best matched for.

I have been with Opinion World for about one month now, and I have already received 70 dollars in Amazon and Paypal. And as soon as I hit the redeem button on there site when I was ready to cash out, my Paypal was credited instantly, as well as my Amazon gift code!
I am very surprised that this panel isn't in the top 10. If you go to their website and click the 'Take a survey" option, they have 1-5 surveys every day, with high incentives. This is definitely one of my favourite panels, and it is something that every survey taker out there needs to try.

like "Saturday, December 08, 2012 by Kim", I keep getting part way through then the almost consistent "we've got enough responses now"

I'm new, so this may be a better site once I get use to it. So far, not liking it.

A waste of time in my opinion world! The lead you up the garden path thinking you're through then right near the end...SORRY, YOU DON'T QUALIFY...or....SORRY, WE HAVE ENOUGH PARTICIPANTS ON THIS OCCASION. They use all your answers and dont give out any points worth having. It would take an AGE to get enough to cash out. Don't waste any more of your time guys.

I have been a panel member of Opinion World for some considerable time. I have answered all the surveys that I have been sent and I have mostly been either unqualified for a survey, or had an entry in a draw. I have never cashed in any points during my time with them and my total points for all the effort over about 5 years or so, has been a measly 375.

It is a survey organisation with credibility issues. Pinecone pays a £3 luncheon voucher for each and every survey and it is delivered after about a week. This puts Opinion World nicely into perspective.
