Complete paid surveys on PointClub's website to get paid for your opinions. Earn PayPal cash, gift cards and more for your participation.

Having launched in 2012, PointClub is run by Innovate MR, an independently-owned market research firm with more than 3,500,000 panelists and over 10,000,000 survey completions.

What PointClub Is

PointClub is a website which gives the opportunity for members to earn rewards from answering surveys and participating in other online activities.

Super-Fast Registration Process

Join PointClub with just a few keystrokes using your Facebook or Google account. Alternatively, you may join the traditional way - using your email address. You’ll be asked for your home address (to verify your location) and to receive your first payment check (if located in the USA).

Who Can Join

You can access this website from any country, and there are money-making opportunities for residents of the USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, France, Germany, the UK and the Netherlands. However, USA residents will find the most opportunities to make side-income from this website and will by far, have the most success with it.

Join and Get up to 5,000 Free Points (Worth $5)

Become a free member of PointClub and jump start your membership by receiving 500 free points credited to your account. Receive points for joining, points for confirming your email, and extra points for completing the short profiling questionnaire, for a total of 5,000 points, or $5.00. This is a particularly generous sign up bonus compared to those offered by most of PointClub’s competitors.

Receive Cash or Gift Cards for Your Participation

By completing surveys and participating in other research opportunities, you will earn points which can be redeemed for PayPal payments or digital gift cards (though your first reward will automatically come in the form of a payment check). You may request a reward with 25,000 points, worth $25, in your account. This is PointClub's minimum cashout. Alternatively, you may request your rewards at the 50,000 ($50), or 100,000 ($100) threshold levels.

• Payment check: The first time you cash out your rewards, you will receive a check in the mail. This is done to verify your address and is the first and only time PointClub will issue a payment check to your address (sent by US mail).

• Earn gift cards: PointClub has over 200 gift card options available that you can exchange your points for. These include Amazon, Tango, Walmart, Home Depot, Target, Macy's, Lowe's, Sephora, Google Play, and many, many more. Visa prepaid cards are also a prize option. You may request a gift card with as little as 25,000 points ($25) in your account. Gift cards are only available as e-gift cards.

• Get paid by PayPal: If you prefer cash, you can opt to receive a $50 cash payment made to your PayPal account. This will require 50,000 points and a 2% withdrawal fee will apply.

Earn Points for Surveys

Every time you participate in a PointClub survey, you will earn points redeemable for gift cards or cash. You can earn anywhere from 200 to 5,000 points per survey completion. Surveys typically take between 5 - 30 minutes to complete. Your points will be awarded once a survey fully closes, so you may have to wait up to 4 weeks before your points are available in your account.

At any time, you can view your current approved points, point status, and points needed for redemption by viewing your PointBank on the sidebar of your account dashboard.

Tons of Survey Opportunities Available

At any time, you may log into your account to view a list of online surveys available for completion. You will also be notified by email when you may qualify for a new survey, but it's a good idea to log into your account regularly to check for opportunities.

Get Points for Screen Outs

If you get screened-out, or disqualified from a survey, PointClub will still credit your account with 12 points after 5 unsuccessful attempts. This counteracts the frustration of spending time on the start of a survey only to be dismissed with no compensation.

Easy Redemptions

Once you have reached the minimum of 25,000 points needed to redeem, a button will appear in the sidebar of your dashboard. A weekly distribution model for rewards is followed so that redemptions requested throughout a week are collated and sent ahead for further disbursal to Club members in the immediate/following week. That means that you should never have to wait more than 7-10 business days to receive a gift card to PayPal reward.

PointsPlus Instant Win

PointsPlus Instant Win is an opportunity to be one of 1800 winners in the instant win sweeps. Earn tokens by completing special selected surveys and filling out information about yourself via profilers. The more tokens earned, the more chances you have at winning.

Earn unlimited tokens daily (via surveys, profilers, and by referring friends who complete at least one survey), or purchase them for 2,000 points each. Up to 5 tokens can be purchased this way. Hidden tokens are also available in your dashboard, so ensure you try filling out surveys even when the PointsPlus Instant Win token icon isn't displayed.

Use up to 10 Tokens per day for your chance to win a prize every week. Prizes include: $50 checks, $25 checks, or 100-5,000 PointClub Points.

PointClub App Download

PointClub does not currently offer an app, however, the website is mobile-friendly and all surveys are designed to be as mobile-compatible as possible.

Is PointClub Legit?

PointClub is not a scam and is a legitimate online survey panel. Innovate MR, the company who operates the PointClub website, is a highly reputable market research firm that conducts high quality surveys. PointClub has millions of users and has awarded millions of dollars in rewards to their members. Although users of the website may experience varying levels of success with the program (as per the PointClub reviews below), PointClub itself is legitimate.

Eligibility: Everyone worldwide, 18+, however, PointClub is primarily for USA residents.

UPDATE: Below you will see my very 1st review here, taking up for Pointclub. Yes, it's correct that I was able to cashout (&timely) a couple times with them. I also really found them fun.... Unfortunately, those days are in the past. I have still tried & tried to keep my hopes up, but the fact is I log-in every day. I often attempt Multiple surveys. However since approx mid December (maybe before that, but I know it went to h*ll for sure before Jan 2018) I have only qualified for 2 surveys (1 was a couple days ago, finally)- Ive been sitting at less than the equivalent of needing -$3 to cashout since then, until earlier this week I got 1 that has now left me needing just about $2!!! :( I am so very disappointed in them. As you'll see below, I really enjoyed them & thought they were awesome. But I dont know what happened but they ARE NO LONGER WORTH IT. To make it worse, it's not like you always get notified you dont qualify early. Sometimes - yeah, but about the same amount of time you will be very indepth into approx 16min of a "20min" survey, then BANG, out of nowhere you get randomly dq'd, so they only have to give you basically just over a penny- but heck that is only a max of 5x each day! rofl smh. :( WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU POINTCLUB?!? I BELIEVED IN YOU.


{original review} I can't believe this site has such a low rating. I have only been doing surveys for about 6 month, but I'm a member of 20 survey sites. PointClub is my favorite. Although the points part is a tiny bit confusing, it's pretty easy to realize 25000 points = $25, lol. Yes you will, like every site I've found so far, get DQ'd, at least Point Club gives you 12 points up to 5x a day for dq's. What makes me happy is that I've only ever had 1 late Dq. However I contacted support & they gave me a partial credit. It's also pretty fast to make the minimum $25 paypal, because it was my 2nd survey site cashout. Make sure to login EVERY day, for a huge multiplier bonus. My #1 reason for liking them best... It's a fun site and I enjoy their mascot.

The first month all went well. Then when my daily streak bonus got to 70 percent I stopped receiving surveys. I think that is why. Upon inquiry they stated my account was canceled because I manipulated a link which is against the rules. I have no idea what that means. I read the rules again and did not see anything that this might refer to so I asked for clarification and got a form email asking me to like their Facebook page! I will not! This seems to be a survey site that does not honor your responses or time spent.

Who disturbed the skunk because this stinks
payments use to take a few days now its been a month still not gotten mine.
wanted to add that about 6 months ago they promised me the games would come back still no games. I get kicked out of all surveys.

Attention all Clubbers:

We've seen tremendous growth recently, with more and more heroes joining the site, every day! However, due to increased strain on our system we've also experienced occasional delays and issues expediting rewards with the lightning-quick speed our heroes are used to.

To ensure our reward processing procedures are optimized and ready for the next stage of PointClub's growth, we have been committing resources into fine-tuning our systems.

During this time you may see delays in the cash-out process (up to 7-10 days in some cases).

We deeply apologize for any inconvenience caused by our "growing pains", but feel they are a necessary step. We plan to have our systems optimized as soon as possible, and will keep you in-the-loop with updates.

For a while, Point Club was going very nicely. Now it seems to have dropped dead. There have been no surveys there for about a month. Does anybody know what's going on there?

February 13, 2018 by Mia from United States

Do not, I repeat, do not sign up with PointClub. I joined their site the end of January and I made the required 25,000 points needed to redeem a $25 Amazon gift card. When I reached the mark a message immediately came up that said I needed 1 more survey validation before I could redeem the gift card. Needless to say that was a week ago. I have emailed them 3 times with no response. I found out after the fact, and too late for myself, that have an "F" rating with the BBB and their membership has been revoked. Hopefully I have saved someone else from signing up with them.
