Valued Opinions is an online survey panel where members can earn cash and gift cards in exchange for participating in paid surveys and product tests.

Most surveys offer rewards of between $1 and $7 per completion. A minimum account balance of just $10 is needed in order to request a reward.

Joining is Easy

You can register a free Valued Opinions account within minutes - simply enter your name, address, email address and desired password on the registration page. If you prefer, you can link your Facebook account and register using the details stored there.

You’ll be prompted to fill more information in your profile after you’ve registered - and doing so will improve your chances of being eligible for a wide range of surveys.

Complete the Basic Profile, Receive $1.00

After registering with the site, you will be e-mailed an offer to complete your account profile (which takes 6 minutes) in exchange for $1.00. This will help kick-start the number of surveys you will be eligible to complete. After completing the basic profile, you can also complete additional profile information regarding your household, shopping habits, etc. which will help you qualify for even more surveys.

Reward Amounts

Valued Opinions surveys typically reward between $1 and $7, although at times you may be sent unpaid surveys to help with identifying your unique interests. The typical survey takes 15-20 minutes to complete, however the estimated time is always outlined beforehand.

For every survey completion, you will receive "cash" deposited into your account immediately after completing a survey. This can be converted into a wide range of rewards.

Survey Rewards

Your Valued Opinions earnings can be redeemed for the following rewards once a minimum of $10 is collected:

• Magazine subscriptions - 1-year magazine subscriptions to Cosmopolitan, ELLE Decor, Food Network, Magazine Midwest Living, and Women's Health for $15 in rewards.
• Restaurant gift cards - Dominos pizza, Chili's, and Restaurant.com available in $15 or $20 denominations.
• Airline miles - Get 600 Rapid Rewards Points for $15 in rewards, or 825 points for $20.
• Retail gift cards - Options include: Amazon.com, Apple, CVS Pharmacy, Fragrance.net, Macy's, Target, and the Home Depot, each in $20 denominations.
• Pack & Go gift card - this one $25 gift card can be redeemed at a Chevron, Texaco, Airbnb or Southwest.

These rewards apply to USA members, though are very similar in other countries.

Rewards Redemption

Electronic gift vouchers are typically delivered within 24 hours of request. It can take a few weeks for rewards such as magazine subscriptions to take effect and be mailed to your physical address.

More Than Just Surveys!

Valued Opinions offers various types of ways to participate on their panel. Although online surveys are what they primarily offer, you may also be given opportunities to participate in diary studies (which are surveys that span multiple days and involve logging information), and you may be selected to test products from home.

Join the Debate on Social Media

Member Badges

Valued Opinions offers a unique program which involves its more active members collecting "badges" for their level of participation. There are 5 levels that can be achieved with mini tasks that must be completed: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond.

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

This was one of my go to sites for a couple of years now. And around Christmas they were fabulous because suddenly there were no delays in reimbursements. But the last couple of months have really gone downhill. Missing surveys reimbursements, others that just disappear, and another not reimbursing at the rate I was told. I've tried to fix this with them several times and always got email saying they would fix it. But nothing fixed. Phone goes to message saying to email them and emails are only getting the automatic response.

Interface is not the best and some of the survey's are tiresome but at least they pay but sometimes rather slowly.

Worth joining I would say.

Valued Opinions was a great site until mid 2012. they have owed me around 4 x $20 rewards and they were making all sorts of excuses for the delays. Then when I complained ;loudly they told me that they had sent me the rewards which contradicted their previous excuses. then instead of of receiving approx 5 survey invites per week it went to 0. I asked why and they said current surveys didn't match my profile and yet not one survey request since Feb 2013. This company is really dodgy.

I have reached the $20 mark and when I clicked the "Claim 1 Voucher(s) Today" button I got directed to a webpage saying:

"We are currently experiencing delays in fulfilling rewards; please allow up to 42 days to receive your reward vouchers. This is not ideal, and will only be temporary – please be assured we are working to resolve this delay as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding."

It's now Day 14, and I won't be doing any more surveys until I know for sure that I can get something out of this site. Let's count down...

Like other reviewers, I feel that this company has deteriorated dramatically in recent months. The problems are in three area:
(1) rewards "disappearing" off your participation page before they have been accredited to your account (at least four times in the past two months).
(2) The length of time (up to six weeks0 to get rewards accredited to your account.
(3) Reducing the validity of e- vouchers to just 24 hours. If you dont spot this when it's issued, you lose your voucher- they don't tell you!
