KEY FEATURES:

The Hiving is panel that was founded in 2007 by a French market research company to help brands better understand their audience. Since then, the company has grown to have a presence in 20 countries around the globe. "Hiving" refers to the term of "bringing a focus back to life at home, while still keeping open and strong communication with the outside world".

Survey Details

As a member of The Hiving, you will generally be sent 1-4 surveys per month, but it depends on your demographic. Each survey usually takes between 5 and 20 minutes to complete.

Collect "Hiving Points"

Each time you complete a survey, you will be rewarded with "Hiving Points". The amount of points collected depends on the complexity and length of the survey. Once you finish a survey, don't panic if your points don't show up in your account right away, as it can take up to 30 days. This is because the survey must be full before it can be closed.

Refer a Friend!

You can also earn points by introducing your friends to Hiving. Each time a member that you invited to join completes a survey, you will receive a percentage of the points allocated to that survey, without reducing the amount of points they receive themselves. There is no limit to the amount of people you can invite!

Hiving Point Conversions

In order to redeem for rewards, you must accumulate 4000 Hiving Points. Here are some quick facts about Hiving Points:

• Hiving Points don't expire
• You can exchange your Points for cash once you have collected at least 4000 Points
• Cash exchanges are made in stages of 4000 (4000 ($4), 8000 ($8) or 12000 ($12) Points)
• 1000 Points = $1.00
• The Points System is susceptible to change but any changes will not affect the value of the Points you currently have

Reward Options

There are three different options that points can be spent on: Redeem for cash via PayPal, request an Amazon e-voucher or donate your points towards a charitable cause!

Have only cashed out a few times and received £20, but havent tried for a while and i have over £30 in my account.

Never seem to complete any surveys but at least you get a small credit for ones you dont complete.

I've been with Hiving for almost a year and they've mostly paid out fairly quickly. Now you cant contact them and they havent paid me out since May. Totally frustrating since they're still advertising.

I need to send Hiving an email but cannot get their 'Contact Us' facility to work. Does anybody know how I can get hold of them, please? They were excellent but just lately have gone downhill. Regards, Diabalo.

This company has stopped paying, I made a redemption of 4000 points on 06 November 2019 and to date I have not received it. I now have a further 8000 points to claim. The "contact us" is disabled on the website. The email addresses [email protected] and [email protected] do not respond either.
They still send out email survey requests regularly. No point in completing any from now on until they pay.

Update - Just a follow up on my previous review. The day after my previous posting, Hiving South Africa paid. I then immediately redeemed another 8000 points and received payment the following day. This shows that Hiving can pay quickly when they want to. Now keep it up Hiving!

Not a bad site, occasional technical error but find their support panel very helpful. Joined a little while ago and received my first payout last week.
