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).

Join them to get screwed

August 11, 2020 by Angela from United States

Watch out - I had been a member for years and had some credit of 500. I go to claim rewards and I keep getting an error. I had to email them and then receive a reply that they have suspended my account - no reason. I keep asking for a reason since I did all the surveys to earn my rewards but THEY TOOK THEM!!! Don't use this company - unless you want to waste your time as I am sure they got paid

Deactivated Account

July 4, 2020 by Janet from United States

I've been an E-Rewards panel member since November 2008. I was invited at the beginning from my Delta Sky Miles account. I thought hey, a great way to earn some extra gift cards and give my opinion on products and services.

Have completed hundreds of surveys. Some very long, some very short. I always took my time with them. Never once, gave silly answers or rushed through them.

Once the site and company was taken over by Dynata, things changed. I noticed at the beginning of the year, the site would go down for days. Sometimes a week with no surveys.

I'd email customer service, I'd get some vague answer about clearing your cache and cookies. Always did that. Never changed anything. I would never get an email confirming my account was back up, I would just log on and I'd be doing surveys again.

Now this time was different. I knew something was up. I tried to redeem a reward. Got an error code. I didn't redeem the reward too soon, I waited for the allotted time between. Nothing.

So I email customer again.

I got the dear John letter that my account was deactivated. I was told I could only have one account. (Who has time for 2 accounts and how you could remember a new person?). And that my attentiveness and inaccuracies caused them to flag my account. And it's now deactivated.

I've got around $40 in my account that they're just going to take. For no reason.

They're either not telling me the truth or I'm no longer a desired demographic or they're going out of business.

I guess it doesn't matter.

This is a deceitful, underhanded, sneaky way of doing business.

Shame on you E-Rewards. I guess you needed that money more than I did.

Suspended with reason

June 19, 2020 by Julie from United States

They’ve stopped sending surveys and have suspended my account for no reason. I had been a member for over 10 years. Find a better site, this one is a waste of time.

If I could give below zero I would

June 18, 2020 by Bobi from United States

These people are horrible to deal with. They conveniently don't kick you out of a survey until you've completed a significant amount of it then they claim they never use your input if they haven't paid you. If you do complete their surveys their pay is notoriously low. Expect to spend hundreds of hours to get a $25 gift card!

No longer legit

June 8, 2020 by Julie from United States

So I’ve been an e-rewards user for well over a decade. I think actually more like 20 years. As far as I know, for most of that time it was a legitimate service, and in fact I appreciated them for their reliability.

Like others, I just recently stopped getting surveys, and then found I couldn’t redeem rewards either (they own me at least $200). Writing to them, I too got a nastygram accusing me of things I did not do. Like others, I take this seriously and most certainly am not trying to give fake information or anything of the sort.

It might be worth noting that e-rewards recently did a site redesign, which has me wondering if more than just the look of the site changed. New management? I don’t know.

At any rate, PLEASE take negative reviews for sites seriously. When multiple, people are reporting the same thing, don’t assume you will be treated any differently. I’ll admit I used to sort of think that, but after having this nonsense happen I no longer do.

There are still (as far as I know) services that are trying to be legitimate. Please use them...and of course remember a legitimate service that pays out and treats you with respect is worth infinitely more than a service which claims to pay more, but in reality doesn’t pay and insults you.
