REDEEMING REWARDS

Beginning early 2019, Lightspeed shut down MySurvey in some countries, and merged those members into LifePoints. In June of 2019, MySurvey panels and members worldwide were fully integrated into LifePoints.

MySurvey is an online survey community where members can influence the future of the products and services that they use each and every day. They've rewarded over $32 million USD worldwide to date! MySurvey is part of Lightspeed, both owned by WPP, one of the world's leading communications services groups. MySurvey has been collecting American opinions since 1946 as National Family Opinion, NFO and TNS.

Payment and Rewards

Survey Types

Take online surveys on a variety of different topics. Typically survey payouts are between $0.50 to $1.25. Surveys vary in length, but usually you earn 10 points per 5 minutes of taking part in a survey.

Redeeming Your Points

1,000 points are the equivalent of $10 USD. You need at least 1,000 points to begin redeeming your rewards. Points are generally rewarded once the survey has been completed, but in some cases, points will be rewarded after the survey closes (which could take up to 3 months).

My Survey offers an extensive number of reward options:

  • exchange your points for a payment to your PayPal account. 1,000 points = $10 PayPal payment
  • exchange your points for an e-voucher from a variety of different retailers. These include: Amazon, Boston Pizza, Aldo, Macy's, Payless Shoes, the Olive Garden, and many more (1,000 points = $10 gift card).
  • exchange your points for a cash donation to a variety of different charities. (1,000 points = $10 charity donation).
  • exchange your points for merchandise including small electronics, jewelry, small kitchen appliances, more. There are dozens of options to choose from. Point amounts vary per item.

Survey Taking Experience

Paid Surveys

Community Features

Referral Program

Bonus Sweepstakes Opportunities

Every month, a few members are randomly selected to receive 10,000 points in exchange for being active on MySurvey. You receive an entry into the sweepstakes when you join the MySurvey panel and participate in panel activities (surveys, quick matches, mini polls or other activities offered).

For certain surveys completed, you will receive an entry into this same sweepstakes. The more you participate, the better your chances of winning the draw. The quarterly draw is for the following prizes: (1) reward of 500 Panel Points, (2) rewards of $250 Panel Points and (100) rewards of $10 Panel Points. If you win, you will be notified via email within 10 days of the draw.

Eligibility: Must be age 16+ to participate in USA, 14+ in Canada. Other countries may vary.

Note: The MySurvey and Lightspeed panels merged into one and are now simply known as "MySurvey."

I have never had a problem with this site and I have always got paid.

I Don't Know About This One

December 20, 2014 by Kelly from United States

I've been a member with this panel for roughly a month. I've taken many surveys, yet have not earned a single point. It's all just sweepstakes entries. I'm not too thrilled with this one and think I'll be quitting it.

Average

December 14, 2014 by Paul from Australia

Have belonged to this site for a while. Recent changes about 5 months ago saw no points for many surveys screened out when previously they were awarded at least 10 points. Many tech issues as well during numerous surveys leading to uncompleted surveys so again no points. Awards take forever to arrive.

Unreliable and Low Rewards

November 29, 2014 by Donald from United States

I must agree with many of the other reviewers here who have become increasing disappointed with the reliability of the MySurvey site. I have been a member for at least 4+ years and used to have confidence that faulty surveys would be few. If I did have problems where I was not credited for a completed survey, I could contact the help desk and I would eventually get credit. Those issues used to be rare but now they are so common I am reluctant to even start.

Be warned, any survey that last 25+ minutes will NEVER crash during the questions but it happens often at the very last screen. After that, all signs and information about the survey are eliminated on the MySurvey site, it will not show in user "history", and all signs [including survey number] are lost. I've contacted the help desk about these issues many times, but they claim nothing can be done without the survey number, they [for some reason] do not have any ability to check activity on a members account, and the email invitations have no information or link for the surveys. Convenient excuses for the site but nothing but a waste of time for the member.

In any case, most of the reward points offered are so low in value, you'd make more money looking for change on the street and waste a lot less time. The reward options are very good, but it takes awhile to accrue points because of the many survey crashes. It used to be a great survey company, but it certainly has tanked over the last year. I'd recommend checking other sites before investing any real time here if you want to make some decent spare cash or prizes.

Quality Going Down

November 12, 2014 by dan from Canada

I used to get many surveys and quickly redeemed for rewards, but now I keep getting surveys and they are closed! I click on the links within an hour of receiving them and it says I either don't qualify or it's closed before I have even started it. Now it is taking forever to reach the reward points I need to redeem. Overall, still a good site to try and it should be pretty quick to redeem with.
