Like everyone else stated on the surveys I too might actualy get qualfied for 2 out of 10 but I still get points if I don't qualify. Their e-mail payout has changed some but I still recommend Mypoints...As far as any scam by them, YEAH RIGHT!!!

love this site it always comes thru been there for a couple of years they pay gift cards free money

They refuse to give credit for completed surveys. I shopped through them for years, but there surveys are terrible.

Nearly EVERY time I qualify, the survey is more than 40 minutes and then I have to complain to Customer Service, because they have not properly credited me for ANY survey taken in past 3 months. Really a rip-off.

Good for online shopping points,but survey-taking is a scam.Reward is $.34 and surveys are up to an hour. Email survey invites promise more than they pay AND lie about time. 4 times in the past 30 days, I spent 30-55 min. on a survey,then NOT credited at all by My Points.

Doing a variety of things I have obtained a lot of gift cards from this site. It is not a traditional survey site, it does not pay much for surveys, but does give points for failing. Reading mail messages, watching videos etc the points build up and I get a $10 gift certificate every 2 or 3 months.

I have been a member for years and love the site have been able to get thousands/millions of points to redeem for gift cards I enjoy getting restaurant ones and store gift cards for just regular things on their site easy to do.

I have earned many gift cards from them. I shop online and if I use their merchants I get quite a few points. The surveys give you 10 points even if you don't qualify and although I don't qualify often I still get ten points. I earn points for reading their emails and going to the merchants website. I have really gotten some good deals from their merchants. A Canon Pixma Printer for $39 and free shipping!! I would not have known about it except for their offering it. I was looking at Best Buy and would have paid $100+ for a new printer. I have a quick system to read the emails fast and I sign up for emails I am interested in to get points. My points suits me.

Have had some problems with them for non payment of a purchase. Lately about half of the E-mails don't offer the five points, so that is a disappointment. Overall though it's still a good site and will continue to use, however I won't open up any e-mails that don't offer the five points.

Super easy to do! Sign up, click on emails and get 5 points or more depending whether you subscribe or participate further with the linked site in the email.

Surveys you get 10 pts if you don't qualify and I've received up to 200 points for some. I don't qualify for alot of them, but hey, at least I still get 10 points.

Refer-a-friend feature is GREAT and you receive a percentage of your friends' points every month also, so that is points you never even do anything for! Toolbar searches also gain points........way too easy folks AND it's legit!

I usually hold out my points for PayPal payout in $25 or $50 increments so I can spend it where I want. Takes more points, but worth it for me. :)

What I really like about MyPoints is that they're legitimate and you get your rewards. It may sometimes take awhile to earn them and then to receive them, but they come.
I also like:
- The refer-a-friend program where you get points from their activity on the site. If you refer someone who is active on the site then you'll get points from them.
- The clicks for read emails are legit and show up quickly.
- Your account is easy to track. It tells how long things will be pending for.
- They have LOTS of gift cards to choose from.
- You do earn points for shopping online through them.
- They also have good promotions throughout the year. Like, the current one if you make a certain number of online purchases of $20 or more then you can get extra points or something.
- All in all, it is a good site to check weekly to see what is there and definitely utilize the refer-a-friend program!

I like it as I have gotten points every time.

I have been with them over a year now and I have gotten some great gift cards to give as gifts. I agree, they don't seem to have a lot of surveys, but I shop online, and if I can get something through one of their venders, then I can get points. I have noticed that their point value for some of the cards have gone up 100 points or so. AND, some of the venders are no longer with them. That seems to drive me crazy, one week they are there, the next they aren't. They come up with different point makers and I will continue to be with them as long as they will have me.

There are so many other ways to earn pts besides doing the surveys, watching videos, bonus emails, games, etc. The surveys seem a little too long and boring for me, so I usually don't do them and do some of the other stuff to earn pts. I've always received my gift cards earlier than expected and when I have communicated with customer service, they answered me in less than 24 hours, cheerful and upbeat. Love this site.

MyPoints has surveys, but it isnt their primary purpose. Its mostly a shopping portal, that rewards you points for shopping and such. Tons of gift cards to redeem from and they recently added PayPal & Visa Debit Cards.

Other than the 10pts they give you for a survey DQ, they(the surveys)arent worth doing. It's mainly OTX stuff; although I lucked up on a product test a few times. Ive been a member since 2001 (only really active for last 3 years or so), and have earned about $1000 cash & gift cards back. Seriously consider buying some of the things you buy at the store online. You'll be making your own discounts with the cash back.

This is probably my favorite site to earn something extra and I belong to, probably 30 different survey sites. You can earn points for reading "bonus mail", using coupons, doing surveys, signing up for free offers (most of which are newsletters), signing up for paid offers like Netflix, playing games, shopping online, using their search bar and probably a lot more I am forgetting. I earned about $50.00 every 4 months last year (not much shopping involved) but with the holiday shopping I have earned $125.00 in 1 month alone, and those were not large purchases.

You get more points for shopping via their website. For the incessant online shopper, or if you buy expensive things like plane tickets, this is GREAT. LOTS of points for plane tickets, cable packages, etc. Otherwise, I get 10-15 surveys per month, (10 points for non-qualifying and 50 for finishing surveys) and earn close to 200 points per month for clicking ads. The incentives are spectacular! Lots of stuff to choose from, and things like giftcards arrive within 2 weeks. Customer service is also good, with fairly quick responses. If you work at it, you can earn lots of cool stuff.

MyPoints is not a survey site. However, they do send out surveys occasionally; however, I've never qualified for any of their surveys in the last 3 months. They are a shoppers' site mainly. You earn points by purchasing products thru them, and going thru their site to do searches, shop online, play games, etc. You can earn points quickly or not, depending on how much you use the site. You cash in points for gift cards and/or online purchasing. I recommend it.

This company is totally awesome aside from the surveys they give out. The problem is they constantly send out OTX surveys, which almost always results in the survey taker not qualifying. Even still, if you make purchases online even if only a little it is totally worth being a member. You have the ability to make points through simply looking at e-mail ads, doing offers, and through online purchases. With enough points one can get a gift card for one of the many different places offered at amounts of $10, $25,and / or $50. Don't join expecting to take quality surveys, but do join expecting to accumulate points in other ways. It is worth it!

My mom,sister, and I all do mypoints. My mom found it and got my sister and I hooked on it, since we all do online shopping a lot its nice to get something back. I have cashed out many times and they come really fast. I am not just saying that, I leave in alaska and I got my gift card in a little over a week.
Yes, they use OTX, SOMETIMES for surveys, I have gottan a number of them not being them and got any where from 50-250 points.
SO don't look down on a site because it didn't work out for you when people like me and my family have gottan a lot from them.
Anybody looking at this and wondering about it TRY IT for yourself! It's a great site to get money back on money you have spent!

They do offer surveys, but they aren't the best. However, you can earn 5 points for visiting merchant websites. You, of course, can earn more points for making purchases -- with already reputable companies. I have made a good number of purchases myself, esp. for holiday shopping. I have also racked up a lot of mypoints.

i've been a member for about 2 years and gotten a gift card for amazon, so far. i like it because many of the items i normally buy at stores, i can find cheaper through mypoints linked retailers and earn points on purchases.

This site sends out A LOT of emails. They give out points for shopping online and even just checking out a website. I've cashed out several times, mainly because I open all the emails and take some of the surveys they send to my Inbox, which are usually worth 50 pts alone. The cash out level is 1400 pts for a $10 gift card-they have plenty types of cards to choose from.

In my experience, they're honest and send rewards quickly (within 2 weeks). Also, they give generous rewards when you purchase through their website-which simply means logging into their site before shopping online. I'd recommend it.

I have been a member of mypoints for several years. Today, all of a sudden, they have accused me of some violation (vague, don't know what violation), referred me to their policies, and locked me out of their site. I lost my accumulated rewards points. It's a huge time and money waster to bother with it given that they can just yank your points out from under you with no explanation. I will complain to the merchants that I shop with also.

I been with MyPoints since 2004 and have cashed out $300 in gift cards, mostly by reading emails and shopping. They offer some surveys, but, 1) they use OTX (bad), 2) they pay 50 points for a completed survey and 10 for trying (I always take the 10 if its an OTX survey). 50 points amounts to about 33 cents, so, its a pretty poor incentive to waste time on a survey.

They do have a very large selection of good gift cards, once you've accumulated the points, and, I probably get one 5-point email a day, on average, so, it adds up (eventually). Points are credited immediately for reading emails, but, it can take a long time to get credited for shopping purchases, if at all.

the surveys that they offer are from otx. the odds are you make any money on the surveys. you can make a lot of points if you shop online but i don't so i haven't made a lot of points

they like to terminate your account when you earn too many rewards-customer service is bogus, almost impossible to find a phone number to call them

THIS SITE GIVES YOU A VARIETY OF WAYS TO EARN POINTS, WITHOUT ANY DAILY LIMITS? THEY SEND YOU AS MANY EMAILS AS YOU CAN HANDLE, ALL SPAM FREE. AND IF YOU SHOP ONLINE ALOT MYPOINTS IS THE PERFECT CHOICE FOR YOU. SAVE YOUR POINTS AND YOU CAN REDEEM FOR GIFT CARDS AT YOUR FAVORITE STORES. IT DOES TAKE A WHILE BUT SEARCH THE SITE AND CHECK YOUR EMAIL AND YOU WILL FIND EASY POINTS!

I have been a member for years now and it is so easy to earn points especially with it now being linked to bzzagent. I ussually receive $100 in gift cards per year

I've been a member for awhile now. I haven't earned enough to actually cash out yet. Or at least on what I want to cash out on...which is a $50 amazon certificate. All you have to do is click through emails and you earn 5 points. They offer you to join up on other offers and earn more points. I rarely ever do it though. They occasionally will have surveys..for around 50 points I think. Recently I earned points through winning something on Ebay. I was quite surprised! If only I could earn points through Amazon...with all the gift certificates I earn through other sites. Overall I highly recommend this site. It's really easy to earn points!

I have been with this site for several years. There are not so many surveys, but you accumulate points for clicking on their emails.. and you get points when you go through "mypoints" to do your shopping. You can even get points for $ spent on QVC and HSN.. I see something on TV and get online to buy it. I've gotten about 8 $50 gift certs from KMart,Penneys,Kohls.. it's worth checking out.

The site offers alot of alternatives to earning points (good for gift cards etal). Some surveys (mostly OTX); alot of emails; lots of sites for shopping; extra points if you add their search engine to your PC; does take awhile to accumulate pts if you don't shop, but not bad; they have a involved (cumbersome at times) accounting system so you can keep track of the status your points -- which is alot better than many sites. Only complaint is the site is slow - slow to load; slow to credit -- but in the end, they've always come through.

Mypoints stole my accomulated points without any explanation. Contacted them many times - no response.

This is a site that you can do some surveys and get points. You have to get 1450 points to get a gift card for $10. If you don't shop by mail and link to their shopping sites, it takes some time to earn your points. Click through sites are worth about 5 points.

This is by far the best paid to click site.Ive invested nothing in the buy to get points deal and still earn about $25 a year

This Site Doesn't Pay Cash incentives, but You get gift cards from Places Like Red Lobster, Gap, Old Navy and More. The Cool thing about this Site is that you get points just for checking E-mails, Doing Surveys, referring friends, Searching for things on their search engine and for shopping. I Have already redeemed points For a JCPenney & Nine West gift cards.

BOTH MY HUSBAND AND I ARE MEMBERS AND WE HAVE REDEEMED POINTS FOR WALMART GIFT CARDS AND RED LOBSTER GIFT CARDS THEY DON'T PAY CASH INCENTIVES BUT THEIR OTHER ITEMS ARE FANTASTIC YOU EARN POINTS FROM BUYING ON E-BAY AND ALOT OF OTHER COMPANIES
