How Toluna Influencers Works

Create an account for 500 free points

With Toluna Influencers, creating an account takes only minutes. To create an account, answer a nine-question survey about yourself; your name, date of birth, gender, country of residence, zip code, desired password and mobile number (this is optional). Confirm your account by clicking the e-mail link and receive an instant 500 point credit to your account.

Take interesting surveys to earn rewards

Toluna offers their members surveys every day that are on a wide array of subjects including large consumer brands, your habits, and the environment you live in. Your opinions will directly impact companies and how they market, distribute or advertise new products and services to consumers like you.

Fill out the profilers for more points

When you first log into your account, you will be asked to complete the profile surveys (though this is optional). These short surveys are designed to help better match you to surveys so that you're primarily sent surveys you will qualify for. For every completed profile survey you complete, you will be awarded 100 points. You can update your profile surveys every 6 months to earn more points.

Payment and Rewards

How to Redeem Points

Upon joining and completing surveys and participating in games and other point-awarding activities, you will be credited with points. Once you have earned a minimum of 30,000 points ($10.00 worth), you can redeem your points for a selection of prizes.

Rewards Options

Toluna Influencers offers an extensive rewards catalog. When you're ready to request a cash out from your Toluna Influencers account, click the Rewards button and choose from a wide variety of options:

  • PayPal payments - with 65,000 points in your account, you can request a $20.00 PayPal cash payment.
  • e-Gift cards - choose from a wide variety of digital gift cards, including Amazon, Boston Pizza, Apple, Starbucks, and many more. Gift cards can be redeemed with as few as 30,000 points ($10.00).
  • bitcoin - receive $30 USD in Bitcoin in exchange for 114,000 points, awarded via mybitcards.

Note that rewards options will vary based on your country of residence.

Toluna Points Value: 3,000 Points = $1.00 (though this varies slightly per reward chosen). Therefore, 30 points = $0.01.

Rewards Processing Times

Upon requesting a reward, it can take up to 3 weeks for it to be delivered. All rewards are digital in nature (PayPal or bitcoin cash and e-gift cards), so ensure you monitor your inbox closely after requesting a reward to ensure you don't miss it!

Survey Taking Experience

toluna influencers surveys

Start taking surveys

The Surveys tab in your account will display a list of online surveys ready for you to fill out. You can choose to view surveys by Priority Surveys (which are recommended for you), Quick Surveys (short surveys), or by Premium Surveys (surveys that award more points than usual).

Every survey will display the estimated length of time it will take to complete, the topic of the survey, as well as how many points you will receive for completing it. Some surveys may offer a unique experience such as being a video survey or a diary style survey.

Points Earned Per Survey

The number of points you will earn per survey completion will vary and is based on things like the length and complexity of the survey. However, successful online survey completions typically award anywhere from 15 - 50,000 points each, and special surveys could offer even more.

Points Expiry

When points are credited to your account, they remain valid for 16 months. If after this period your points have not been used, they will automatically expire and be deleted from your account. Your points will not expire all at once; instead, points will expire 16 months after you originally earned them, so be sure to regularly redeem your points for rewards.

waiting for payment for 8 days

February 1, 2022 by Francis from United States

I write this rating and this comment because since the 23rd they have not paid my payment is still in processing since that day and there is no communication or response because the delay. Toluna is a good site but sometimes they makes changes and it says nothing. I remember once when they paid by btc it left many people with payments in processing and never paid that to date still does not exist btc cards removed that December.

Hello Francis,

Thank you for taking the time to share your review.
If your reward is an e-voucher, this is most probably caused by a delay in code supply. Our support team can provide additional information at any time you have questions or concerns.
I would be delighted to personally follow up on this situation. Would you mind sharing your username with me here, or the ticket ID, if you already contacted us? Alternatively, I kindly invite you to send me an email at https://us.toluna.com/contactus with the following as subject: 'Survey Police review - follow-up'.

Hoping to hear from you soon,
Katy

Well it sometimes gives points also sometimes not, sometimes its a waste of time answering when you're not qualified.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us and the community, Jechris. I sincerely regret seeing that your Toluna experience is not at the level we would have liked.
Market research depends a lot on categories, so we need to respect target quotas & requirements while also ensuring the highest possible level of data quality; as such, influencers might not qualify for all the surveys they receive, in which case points are not awarded because the data is not used.
In the event you have doubts about a specific survey participation or would like to further discuss your specific experience, I kindly ask you to submit a ticket at https://ph.toluna.com/contactus using 'Survey Police review - follow-up' as subject & provide as many details as possible and I will personally assist you as soon as possible. We'd very much appreciate the opportunity to improve your Toluna experience based on your expectations and needs!

Best,
Katy
Enjoyment

January 16, 2022 by Tre from United States

I really enjoy Toluna and everything it has to offer. The surveys are plentiful and inform you early in the survey if you're qualified or not. I enjoy the activities such as games, polls and discussions. They offer great incentives such as doubling points during the holiday season with fun contests.

Patience is a virtue…and does pay off.

November 25, 2021 by Thom from United States

Have been a panelist and Toluna community member for years. Lots of fun, have taken some very interesting surveys, and have tried some super cool product concepts at home. If you are a casual survey taker, yes, it is going to take awhile, but Toluna makes it enjoyable with their interactive community, and even change it up sometimes! Love that surveys are worth double the points from time to time, especially this time of year. And if you have trouble, then follow Toluna’s advice. Complete your profile surveys every year, check your account every month so your points don’t expire, clear out your cache/cookies, and take your time and answer these surveys honestly. I’ve done all those things, per their recommendations, and my experience with Toluna has gotten much smoother and rewarding (no pun intended). With patience, your work will pay off! I see lots of reviews that say Toluna is a scam, and does not pay out. Please know that I have never had a problem with that. There have been a few times over the years, that I’ve reached out to customer service regarding reward redemption, and they been great through their Incentive Team, helping me to figure it out. Even with the occasional glitch in the system, my points have always been returned in full, without issue. And it’s also true that if a survey crashes after you’ve been advised having completed it, and you get the “It’s Not You, It’s Us” page, your account will be credited eventually. Trust me. I’ve seen proof of that many times in my own account. Keep up the good work Toluna! Have really enjoyed being an Influencer, and look forward to continuing to do so.
