Payment and Rewards

Earn e-Rewards

Earn Opinion Points/e-Rewards currency for taking surveys. Exchange your points for gift cards, magazine subscriptions, hotel reward points, and airline points. Choose from over 30 different retailers to redeem gift cards with, including Best Buy, CVS Pharmacy, Walmart, Macy's and more. You may redeem a gift card only once per quarter with most gift card options.

Prizes

e-Rewards can also be redeemed towards prizes. Many prizes come in the form of discounts towards purchasing products and services they provide.

Redeem Your e-Rewards Currency

In most cases, your account will be credited as soon as you complete a survey. However, in some cases the credit may take up to 7 days to appear on your account. Similarly, e-Rewards sends most electronic gift cards immediately upon request (within one hour). Most physical gift cards will be sent out within 4-6 weeks of redemption.

e-Rewards also requires mobile and landline verification in order to redeem your rewards. This verification helps you keep your rewards secure. For data security, they will need to verify your account with a valid US mobile or landline number in order to redeem your reward. Once you provide your number, you will receive a verification code via that number that you will need to enter in order to finalize the redemption process.

You can redeem your e-Rewards Currency/Opinion Points as soon as you accumulate enough to qualify for the reward you desire (the lowest gift card option is $10).

cash out fast

April 7, 2017 by Bridget from United States

They have a nasty habit of closing accounts with no warning. Cash out fast and often.

Another victim of the e-Rewards cull..(UPDATE 05/04/17)

April 5, 2017 by Nick from United Kingdom

Not seen as many from the UK, as I am, but add me to the pile of scrapped members.

This explains why they don't expire points, they just expire your account and take the points with them, therefore getting your work for free if you don't cash out as soon as you can.

I'm now wary of all Research Now sites - Interestingly, their sister site Valued Opinions, while keeping my account active, will show me available surveys, however clicking on any sends me to the default "no surveys available page".

Definitely something going on beyond e-Rewards.

Update 31/03/2017. E-Rewards have now deleted their most recent Facebook post which contained the majority of comments from affected members. They now appear to be in lockdown and are not replying to communication.

My Valued Opinions account is now also confirmed as suspended with credits irretrievable, in their reply they had the gall to state that I will not be able to cash out.

If you have an active Valued Opinions or E-Rewards account, my suggestion is to cash out and quit while you have the option. This isn't over yet, the reviews coming in daily confirm this.

Update : They never responded, however they reactivated my account, I was only made aware when I received an email to update my profile. On checking my history, I can see that my accrued points were manually added on the 31st of March.

Valued Opinions have still not responded to my challenge for more info, and that account is still locked, although they allowed me to updated my security question?!?

Strange survey site

April 5, 2017 by Douglas from United States

The four star rating applies only if you aren't screwed by the survey site owners. I'm one of the fortunate members who wasn't bounced in the audit review.

This is a very strange and idiosyncratic survey site. Survey invitations seem completely disconnected from the actual availability of surveys. It generally takes hours before you get credited, and I haven't found a consistent way to determine if I was actually credited. Surveys seem to exit for no apparent reason. The "dollar" amount you are credited for is not the actual survey value, but a ratio of three survey dollars to one real dollar is a good approximation.

With that said, I have found that I get a bigger bang for the time spent on e-rewards than just about any other site. A big problem is that I earn more than I can cash out with rewards that I am interested in. Many rewards can only be cashed out two to four times per year.

If you are willing to accept their way of doing business, you can do well with this site.

I received a Red Lobster gift card on April 3, so they must still be in business.

Ripoff

April 3, 2017 by craig from United States

I got taken by E rewards too. I hope the people that sponsor the surveys do the same to them.

Love it!

April 3, 2017 by aaron from United States

I found this site by accident (surveypolice) and was shocked to see the bad reviews for e-rewards. I do surveys for about a dozen companies and this is one of my fave's now. I have only been with e-rewards for maybe two months or so, but I've earned TWO $25 Red Lobster gift cards and I have $115 e-dollars in my account right now. The only bummer is I can only get one per quarter (not even sure how it allowed me to get two already). And they really don't have anything else I want to redeem for. No other restaurants, only Red Lobster. Wish I could redeem for more Red Lobster cards or another restaurant.
