How Opinion World Works

Creating an OpinionWorld account so that you can be sent paid surveys is easy. Simply navigate to their registration page and fill out a few basic details. If you prefer you can use your Google or Facebook account to sign up in a matter of seconds

Once you’ve done that, you’re free to start completing tasks to earn points and claim rewards and can find surveys listed in your account, or you can wait for them to be e-mailed to you.

Payment and Rewards

Rewards for Surveys

You’ll earn between 50 ($0.50) and 300 ($3) points for each survey you complete, depending on its length. Some surveys do not award points, but rather, offer donations to charities. These surveys are usually quite short and can be taken on an almost daily basis! You will be notified before the start of the survey, if the survey is offering you rewards (points) or asking for your opinion for charitable donations, before you begin.

Once you’ve earned a minimum of $10, you can redeem your points for rewards including Amazon.com vouchers, Visa prepaid debit cards, cash via PayPal, restaurant gift cards, and more.

Rewards for Watching Videos and Reviewing Advertisements

OpinionWorld gives you the opportunity to earn points by watching videos and offering your feedback on video advertisements. The rewards are minimal, but it’s a nice low-effort addition to the website that you might enjoy and can help you reach your cash out goals sooner.

Real World Missions

Depending on your location, you might be able to earn points by completing ‘real world missions’ while you’re out and about.

Most missions of this nature involve sharing information about shops and other customer-serving businesses. You'll need to connect your mobile device in order to participate.

Redeeming Points

The minimum points or dollars redemption threshold is $10 USD (or equivalent in Canada), unless there is a lower redemption option available for a certain reward. Threshold amounts vary in countries outside of the US and Canada. The points conversion is 100-1. This means that the value of every point is $0.01. So if you have 250 points in your account, it will be worth $2.50 (though this amount may vary if you are outside the USA).

Members who choose to redeem their earnings by PayPal or for an e-gift certificate, often receive their payments instantaneously, or within a few hours. Physical gift cards usually take approximately 2 weeks for processing and mailing.

Termination of account

August 19, 2018 by Jabbie from New Zealand

I believe that this review survey panel is a scam. I answered two lengthy surveys which approximately 40 minutes each. My account was terminated the next time I log in.

I asked of any reasons why my account was terminated and it takes a week for them to respond. I made a follow-up emails in between.

Finally, after a week of waiting for their reply, Opinion World responded that due to the validity of my answers, my account was terminated.

HORRIBLE AND USELESS

August 7, 2018 by Rachel from Australia

Basically a waste of time doing surveys as when you go to redeem a Paypal voucher your account will be terminated for no reason and they won’t re- open your account. Also if you have a account with My Opinion it will terminate that account too.

1 star until they fix my account

June 24, 2018 by Danielle from Australia

Never had a problem with opinionworld until now. Went to redeem points today and before I could I got a msg saying my account is terminated. This happened on myopinions too and I'm wondering if they are part of the same company because it's weird to have this happen on 2 survey panels around the same time. Very annoyed!

Love them!

May 20, 2018 by mellissa from New Zealand

I've been with opinion world just over 6mths and so far have received 2 $20 giftcards which took about 2 weeks in the mail and 3 $10 PayPal which took 12hrs. And I'm only 75points away from my next $10

I got 885pts and needs 1000pts to redeem, then they stopped giving me any surveys. Dont waste time on them. Their cs told me I will get survey very soon and its a lie, I dont get their survey invite for half year after I got some pts and can redeem so soon.
