Maximiles is a loyalty programme / get-paid-to program that allows its members to earn points by shopping, taking surveys, and conducting other activities online via their website or mobile app. Points can be exchanged for a wide variety of merchandise, as well as e-gift cards.

How Maximiles Works

After joining Maximiles, you’ll have a variety of ways of accumulating points:

  • Take surveys – Earn up to 500 points for each survey you compete, and up to 10,000 points for participating in focus groups. Receive 5 points if you attempt to complete a survey but are disqualified from doing so. Receive 15 points for each profile survey you fill out – these are available in your account.
  • Watch videos – Watch videos online and receive points
  • Shop and earn points – Shop online with over 600 partner retailers and you can collect points for each £ you spend.
  • Read emails – For every special email you read, you will receive 5 points
  • Registering with websites – Register for websites via Maximiles and receive point bonuses that are typically worth 100-300 points. You may also have opportunities to participate in free trials and information requests which also award points.
  • Refer friends – Get your friends and family to join Maximiles and you’ll receive 1500 points credited to your account each time you do so.

Maximiles also has a mobile app available for download which will connect to your Maximies account. Watch videos, read e-mails and respond to paid surveys conveniently and on the go by using the app.

Payment and Rewards

Redeem your points for your choice of over 300 gifts from the Maximiles reward catalogue. Merchandise such as music, film, books, beauty products, and homeware are available for redemption, along with vouchers from merchants such as Argos, John Lewis, Disney, Ted Baker, and more.

A minimum of about 2,000 points is required for rewards redemption.

Good for Europeans

As many GPT programs are limited to North Americans, Maximiles is a good choice for people living in Europe. With over 2 million members and a presence that has lasted over a decade, Maximiles is a big player in the European loyalty programme scene.

Eligibility: UK, Spain, France, Italy residents aged 14 or older.

» New members of Maximiles can receive up to 125 free points just by joining.

Not what it used to be!

June 8, 2020 by Leo from United Kingdom

Half a star because it's unacceptable having to go in a loop for 10 minutes trying to login because they can't use an intelligent captcha!!!
- - - Also, latest site update made the site really unfriendly as you go in a loop again to find out that there's nothing to do, no surveys no polls and to find any info you've to click all over the place. - - - AND games often miss rewarding points, 1 whole point per game! by the way, so much for latest email reminding games to earn points! - - - Contacts record still difficult to navigate. - - - Long time due is a space in that mess of repeated links where there should be a log for the email-offer you complete since you've to wait months!

OLD REVIEW
I know this site through the many changes since 2000; c-s is responsive, even if not everything is always solved as you'd like, for survey problems is usually very good. However, I feel to lower my star rating from 5 into 3 because since the last website update, surveys have been too slow, often closed and the new site is not user friendly, especially on a tablet. Unfortunately, you've to use the image-captcha every time you right-click to open a page... and you're still logged in.

SURVEY: average, in terms of incentive & accuracy of timing/duration. Incentive usually added at submission. 5p if you dnq.

OFFERS & PURCHASES: keep emails for future ref. keep relevant info as it takes 1/3 months for points to be added (vat p&p excluded).

No more VIDEOs and rare 5p EMAILS but they ADDED games, but I found their captcha gets in the way when playing and refreshing the page for the point.
Special-offers email have some strange sponsors SO HAVE A SEPARATE EMAIL FOR Maximiles and their offers.

CATALOGUE: not very interesting for me, just a few items over the years. For completing surveys, I like vouchers and unfortunately, it offers very few vouchers and can take long time to build up the points. Sadly, I recently found it is quite unreliable as vouchers type and points can change at any time.

points removed

May 4, 2020 by shelly from United Kingdom

I had been with Maximiles for a number of years, I had the app on tablet and would diligently complete surveys then claim rewards without issues. All of a sudden I could no longer access but kept trying regularly for some time. Finally today after all this time I was able to access only to find the points I had amassed had been removed, this is highly unfair as I had done nothing wrong. I have done nothing wrong it's not my fault there has been issues with your app.

lack of surveys

February 14, 2020 by richard from United Kingdom

Almost never any surveys available and when they are available never accepted.

Poor availability of surveys

June 14, 2018 by Jason from United States

I used maximiles during my study abroad period. Even though I was in France, I had no surveys to take. I filled out all the profile information that was asked but when I checked, there was never any surveys. It just asked me to check back again the next day. Support said there was nothing they could do.

Rewards offered were okay. Nothing special.
