REDEEMING REWARDS

The more surveys you take weekly, the more likely you will be entered into the higher tiers for weekly draws and prizes. You can also earn points to be redeemed by major online retailers.

GfK is one of the world’s largest market research companies, spanning over 57 countries and has been conducting surveys for over 70 years! GfK is committed to providing the highest quality of information and protection of its panelists. They are members of the UK Data Protection Act and follow the Market Research Society’s Code of Conduct.

GfK MediaView Panel

The Gfk MediaView panel lets its members share their opinion on what they watch on the television and hear on the radio. You could have an influence on what shows are available in your country and change the future of broadcasting!

Take Daily Surveys

Every day there are surveys available about TV and Radio related subjects asking you about your viewing and listening habits. There are no survey screen outs. Each time you complete a survey, you will receive "tickets". Once you have accumulated 10 tickets, you will receive an entry into a prize draw for cash, vouchers, experiences and gadgets. Each days' surveys are available between the hours of 6AM and 12AM only.

How Does it Work?

Every day, you can rate the television programs you watched the day before, giving a simple rating score (1-10) to the programs you watched for at least 5 minutes.

Get Rewards

For your participation, you have the chance to win prizes including cash, exclusive experiences, and e-vouchers from retailers such as Amazon, Tesco, Cineworld and more. There are weekly draws to participate in as well.

The number of surveys you complete each week determines which of the weekly prize draw tiers you will be entered into at the end of the week:>

  • 1-2 surveys = Bronze
  • 3-4 surveys = Silver
  • 5-7 surveys = Gold

Each survey you complete also earns you points, which can be spent towards a catalogue of great prizes in the points prize draw:

  • Each TV survey = 200 points
  • Each Radio survey = 100 points
  • Per “5 minutes” of a survey = 500 points

Eligibility: Residents of the UK, Ireland and Isle of Man.

No Points

October 8, 2017 by Sybil from United States

I'm finding this site does not post the subject of their surveys in advance, asks LOTS of questions and then disqualifies you with NO POINTS. I don't think this is fair! Subjects should be posted first with an option for the survey taker to say YES or NO to proceed, a set # of qualifying questions should be established for all surveys to set a fairness standard, and a few points should be given for not qualifying to respect the survey takers time & effort. I've heard some people cheat but I don't and I don't think most people do. Somebody needs to step up & be first to upgrade this profession.

Why? oh! why? won't they change their redemption of points system?

February 7, 2016 by dawn from United Kingdom

I have been a member of this survey site for several years. I have loved being able to review the television shows that I watch every day but when it comes to the points redemption system, this is possibly the worst among the Survey companies. If you amass a good many points (as I have done), you expect to be able to click on my points followed by the choice of payment, ie cash or vouchers, and then click on Redeem. Not with GFK. You have to enter a draw each day and its pure chance that you will be chosen to get your points. This is the most unfair system around since, only one or two people win the draw. The rest of us can lose our points and whistle. So, how about it management of GFK? Its not quantum science to simplify the points redemption system to what other survey companies are offering, is it?

should i use gfk

June 23, 2015 by kev from United Kingdom

i found gfk to be very limited if im honest..only 1 survey was available and the points are hard to gain. i feel there are many more sites that offer much better value for rewards etc

I'm not in it for the money!

October 13, 2021 by Andrea from United Kingdom

I've been a member of this site since 2010. My one and only reason for continuing membership of this panel is to have the opportunity to comment on television programmes I have watched. Reward - or should I say the hope of a possible reward - does not feature in my decision to remain with the site. How could it? They pay next to nothing!

This panel does not have a points based system which accumulates to a threshold for a "payout" or a reward, that is, one which pays in a way which is commensurate with the time and effort the panellist has expended. Instead, they run a "draw" system whereby the panellist is not guaranteed a reward and has only a random chance of gaining a gift voucher. The more surveys a panellist completes, the higher the reward will be if they are randomly selected ( in steps of £1, £2 or £5 ) but a higher rate of participation still does not guarantee that a reward will actually be granted.

I would recommend this panel ONLY for any TV viewer who wants the opportunity to comment regularly on programming content. Someone who is looking for a reliable source of a little "pocket money" should steer clear of this site, in my opinion.

Terrible rip off survey company

June 8, 2020 by Louise from United Kingdom

I joined this company and religiously/loyally took their TV and Radio surveys for over two years. Then suddenly one day, I didn't receive the survey email so emailed them to see if they were having problems.
They told me (after some time, quote: 'Unfortunately your responses have not been in line with our quality requirements and we have had to close your membership. Where this is the case you will forfeit your rights to redeem any outstanding points'.
When I asked them what rule had I actually broken, they never answered.
They didn't even email me to tell me this, I had to find out from them by asking them.
A disgusting company - avoid at all costs.
