Web Perspectives is the Canadian focused survey panel, sister site to the American panel, Valued Opinions, which is operated by Dynata. The panel was started back in 2004 and has a member base of over 250,000 people. In 2018, the Web Perspectives website updated their look and feel with fresh colors and graphics, as they became a Dynata-run panel.

Changed rules/won't pay out

January 23, 2024 by Jenny from Canada

Asked for photo ID/didn't pay rewards
I followed the rules when I signed up and spent hours doing surveys. Often it would take a long time doing qualification surveys that didn't even count towards the points before finding one that worked, but I had earned $40 worth of either Amazon gift card or Visa gift card and was working towards a $50 card instead of cashing it in yet. When I recently tried to sign on, I had a message that my account was frozen unless I submitted a picture of my drivers license and of myself. There was no requirement to put my photo id on the internet when I signed up or I wouldn't have done any of it. They will not give me the rewards that I spent hours to earn. They have taken the benefit of those surveys for nothing. It is not safe to send pictures of photo id onto the internet. I tried to resolve it with the company and they have just decided to suspend my account and the balance. Don't waste your time on this company.

Required to upload ID

July 30, 2023 by Amy from Canada

They now require you upload your ID in order to cashout. They also STORE it. As a victim of fraud I can tell you this is not a good idea. People can steal your information and identity.

Didn't get paid

February 12, 2023 by Kathy from Canada

Don't do this one. Made me wait 72 hours and then told me I had multiple accounts. I asked what accounts. No reply.

unable to solve issue

May 24, 2021 by Daniel from Canada

For weeks now I have been trying to login to my account without success. They tell me because of new securities I have to reset my password. I have not been able to do so and always getting an error occurred.
Tried to contact them from their site with an email and it is always coming back to me as undeliverables

Can't redeem rewards

August 20, 2018 by DENNIS from United States

Looked at other comments, it seems I am the same situation that they deactivated my account. I played with Web Perspective for many years and for few years I didn't played with them. Now they changed to another corp. I have about 4500 points accumulated there, and wanted to redeem the rewards. I am not able to redeem and an error massage port out, contacted them and no feedback, also there's no surveys available. I doubt they have a difficulties to run the business and unable to let users redeem the rewards.
