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. If were already a member, your account information stayed the same through this transfer.

Questionable

April 8, 2017 by Mathew from Canada

I find it interesting that since looking at this site, I have found reviews that mirror my experience.

I had been using Web Perspectives for a while. I went on vacation in the US, and, as is my habit, I checked my e-mail for any surveys to do at night when it was quiet. I belong to many sites, so I like to keep on top of invites.
I tried to do one on Web Perspectives and found myself permanently deleted on my return. Now, I understand that a site does not want non-Canadians doing surveys. I have run into this with a few other sites, but when I have contacted other sites, they always re-activated my account, no problem. With Web Perspectives, they just said that they had "identified several discrepancies in your account details and/or survey activity that are in breach of our terms and conditions." The only thing that I could think of that I might have done is tried to do a survey while in the US. I contacted them to find out what it was, and they would not even elaborate what they claim that I did.

The highly suspicious thing was that I had accumulated a lot of points that I have now lost.

And the points they offered were not that great. Not as bad as some sites, but not great.

IF you want a recommendation, I would propose Survey Lion or Pinecone. Both offer good rewards.

Overall very good

January 20, 2017 by Trisha from Canada

I've been a member of Web Perspectives for several years and my experience has been quite good. The surveys are interesting and I've never had a problem redeeming rewards. It takes a while to accumulate enough points for a reward but hey, it's free. The one time I had a problem with my account, it was fixed quickly. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I seem to qualify for less and less surveys but get more and more emails. Otherwise, I'd recommend this site.

Amazing site--truly one of the best!!

January 18, 2017 by Corinne from Canada

I have been with them for less than a month and I have already cashed out 3 times, and I'm already halfway to my 4th cashout. The surveys pay the highest I've ever seen, and I really like the badges system. Maybe it's just a psychological game, but there is this really rewarding feeling you get when you climb the ladder to the next level. You feel that you are getting somewhere. There is something more to look forward to than your next payout. Anyway, this one is definitely worth signing up for.

Good site

June 23, 2016 by Irina from Canada

I like this site. Never had problems with points, sometimes they are delayed, but always get them in full. Never had any problems with rewards, always deliver to me very quickly. You can get from 100 to 300 points per survey and it's not bad. You can reach the minimum cash out level very quickly.
