Paidviewpoint is a paid surveys website where you can earn PayPal cash and gift cards for answering online surveys.

How PaidViewpoint Works

paidviewpoint website

Earn Cash Taking Surveys

Paidviewpoint gives survey takers around the world the opportunity to participate in paid studies on their surveys platform. Becoming a member is free and only takes a few minutes.

PaidViewpoint is built upon 4 principles:

  • Cash for every completed market research survey. No points, chances or tickets.
  • No screen outs without a cash reward once you've been invited into a survey.
  • A carefully crafted survey taking experience that's clear, fun, and engaging.
  • Respect for your privacy and never selling your personally identifiable information to anyone.

Take surveys from a visually attractive, engaging platform where you can uniquely customize your survey taking experience by choosing from three website themes (light, dark, and retro).

New Member Cash Bonus

When you join PaidViewpoint, you'll be invited to complete two welcome surveys which each pay 50 cents each. They’ll ask you to fill in registration and demographic information to better match you with survey opportunities. Completing both surveys means a new member cash bonus of $1.00.

Joining is free, easy, and can be done using your email address, or by connecting your Google or Apple account. No activation code is required to receive the $1.00 sign up bonus—once you fully register and complete both of the short surveys, you’ll see the amount instantly credited to your account.

Survey Taking Experience

How PaidViewpoint Determines How Much You'll Earn Per Survey

Select the surveys you're interested in taking based upon the expected reward range or survey length. It’s your choice which surveys you end up taking!

Every survey gets a fixed amount of cash allocated to the respondents who participate in the study. That pot of money is divided up between the respondents based on their TraitScore. Adjustments are then made to level the playing field so that newer members of PaidViewpoint are treated equally compared to longstanding members. Additionally, the respondent pool is divided into groups, with the higher-level groups getting paid more for each survey answer.

Payment Options

PaidViewpoint offers online surveys in exchange for cash and gift cards. All cash-out payments are made through PayPal or their partner, Virtual Incentives.

  • Receive your first payment once you reach a $15 USD balance in your account. Your second reward redemption can be made with $10 in your account, and all subsequent redemptions can then be made with just $5 worth of earnings in your account, if your account is in good standing.
  • Receive your reward within 72 hours of request.
  • Reward options include PayPal payments (all countries), or regional e-gift cards to Amazon, Walmart, and more (for members in the USA, UK, and Canada).
  • If you are located outside the USA, you will be paid to your PayPal account in US dollars. Gift cards will be converted into your local currency (from USD).

Maximize Your Gains with Active Participation

Here's a tip: Stay engaged! Make a habit of logging in to the PaidViewpoint website regularly to seize the best-paying survey opportunities. No need to wait for emails—dive right in and watch those earnings grow.

Use a Magic Link to Access your Account

PaidViewpoint offers the convenient option of being able to log into your account using a 'magic link'. Instead of having to type in your password to access your account, simply enter in your email on the PVP website and PaidViewpoint will e-mail you a magic link that upon clicking, will automatically log you in to your account.

How to Get More Surveys

Getting Notified for New Surveys

PaidViewpoint doesn't always send an email notification to members when a new survey becomes available. Instead, surveys are posted to user dashboards. Upon logging in, you’ll see a message at the top of your user dashboard listing the number of surveys available. PaidViewpoint recommends logging into your account regularly to be able to take these higher paying surveys, as opposed to waiting for an email invitation.

Increase Your TraitScore and Earn More

PaidViewpoint's patent pending TraitScore system was invented to assess and promote the candor and consistency of survey respondents. The higher your TraitScore, the more you can earn per Research survey. A high TraitScore allows you to receive the maximum number of surveys per month.

Member's Tip! Don't wait for PaidViewpoint to e-mail you surveys. Log in to your account regularly to find full surveys (non-trait surveys) posted there first.

Survey Lengths

Survey lengths vary, but are typically between 5-6 minutes. All surveys have limits placed on the number of characters in a question (120-240) and in survey answers (90-120) to give a Twitter-like feel. The number of answer choices is limited. Long, classic, complex, matrix-type questions are forbidden and the number of open-ended questions (where you have to type in answers) is limited. The maximum number of questions in a survey is limited on average, to around just 10 questions long.

Daily Surveys

You can wait until new surveys are posted to your dashboard, but you can also take "Trait Surveys" and earn between $0.03 and $0.10, on most days. These Trait Surveys not only serve to regularly increase your earnings, but they also help increase your TraitScore. Note that receiving trait surveys regularly may depend on your region.

9000 TraitScore Importance: Achieve a TraitScore of 9000 to become part of the top 10% of members who earn more for each research survey!

Survey Variety

The surveys on PaidViewpoint are designed to be brief and to the point, mostly with multiple-choice questions. It's all about keeping things simple and enjoyable for you.

Surveys Are Meant to Be a Breeze

At PaidViewpoint, every survey you see is tailored to you, and is based on your profile. That way, you're never wasting time on surveys that aren't a good fit.

PaidViewpoint App

paidviewpoint app

If you prefer to take surveys on your phone and like having direct access to your surveys account, you may consider downloading the PaidViewpoint app. You can complete surveys directly from the mobile app, check your account balance and cash out your earnings when ready. The Paidviewpoint app is available on both iOS via the App Store and on Android, via Google Play.

Community Features

Earn More Though Referrals

Referral Program

PaidViewpoint offers a generous referral program where you will earn 20% of what your referrals earn for taking research surveys. In other words, earn 20% from your referrals when they take surveys other than "Traits Surveys.” You’re allowed an unlimited number of referrals and can earn up to a lifetime maximum of $25 per referral. If you can refer friends from the USA in particular, you will likely find you can earn more.

VIP Community Builders

For members who can generate large numbers of referrals, PaidViewpoint offers a VIP Community Builder Club. The benefit of the club is that you'll be credited with 20% of a referred user's earnings immediately after they complete a survey, without having to wait to be credited until a referral cashes out their earnings.

To get this privilege, you must have 100+ active friends or referrals. “Active” means your referrals have been a member for more than 30 days and must be visiting the site and completing surveys on a regular basis.

Is PaidViewpoint Legit or Scam?

Is Paidviewpoint Legit?

It's barely appropriate to even question whether Paidviewpoint is legit or a scam. PaidViewpoint is operated by AYTM (Ask Your Target Market) - a legitimate and well-regarded market research company with millions of members worldwide. They offer legitimate surveys to their respondents and pay them on time.

Although some users may have varying levels of success with the website (i.e. international users may find it difficult to find full paying surveys; surveys that pay more than $0.03 'trait surveys'), it doesn't mean that the panel itself is illegitimate, never mind a 'scam'. Paidviewpoint is a safe, secure, online surveys website.

Eligibility: Available in 50 countries worldwide. Must be 13+ (16+ in the EU) to participate.


Note: McAfee antivirus has been known to mistake PaidViewpoint as a "phishing" website. You can ignore this warning.

not for Belgium

December 30, 2017 by Leslie from Belgium

They let you register and let you answer endless profile questions but you never reach a cash out level if you live in Belgium. Although the helpdesk is very friendly and punctual in answering.

Hi there Leslie,

We are glad you found our help desk friendly and punctual.

Yes, sometimes the respondent's country of residence can make surveys appear less frequently. Many of our USA based Market Researchers are looking for US respondents. Occasionally, Market Researchers will open their survey to world wide respondents. Remember, surveys are dispatched in real-time, usually during US waking hours. The surveys are usually fulfilled in a few hours. If you log on a few times a week, you will definitely miss these better-paying surveys. We are trying to build a bigger, stronger international presence but this takes time and a lot of resources.

Happy New Year in Belgium. We wish you health and happiness.

Regards,
Florence
Don't bother if you live in Canada

September 6, 2017 by Julie from Canada

While the surveys are normally quick, it's still a waste of time. I have been earning three cents a survey, which would accumulate quickly if there were a few available every day except it's one survey every other day! I also have more than 9000 on that trait score so I was expecting more invites or at least have my earnings rounded up to a nickel, but no! Going to give up.

HI Julie,

Something doesn't sound right. Please write to us at [email protected] since you are anonymous here in Survey Police. There could be a reasonable explanation for you not getting the better-paying market research surveys from our customers.

Regards,
April
not for canada

July 5, 2017 by Gaetan from Canada

If you are willing to earn 3 cents a week and reach the 15 dollars pay out after many years then this site is for you.

PaidViewpoint responded to this review on July 6, 2017

Hi there, Gaetan,

Something doesn't sound right. It should not take a respondent from Canada this long to cash out. Please write to us at [email protected].
We do not send out invites on every survey that you may qualify for. If you wait for invites, you will not make much cash. But, if you log into your PaidViewPoint DashBoard many times throughout the day (if able) you most likely would see surveys waiting for you to complete. 
Also, the best way to maximize earnings is to post our site to your blog (If you have a blog). Be sure to get a PV referral link first. You will earn matching winnings from any one who joins under your link. To get this referral link, go to your DashBoard and select the Blue "Friends" icon. There are 3 choices to refer friends. 
We hope you write to us so we can examine your account.

Regards,
April
lost phone number so I'm punished for it

June 10, 2017 by Christopher from United States

I either had to freeze my earnings for 6 months or burn it all to verify another phone number! that's not right! I froze my earnings and I'm not happy about it. HORRIBLE Terms of service to do that to your survey takers.

PaidViewpoint responded to this review on June 11, 2017

Hi there, Christopher,

We understand your frustration. We have this rule to help prevent people from attempting to break the rules and operate more than one PaidViewpoint account. We suggest that you only change your registered phone number following a cash-out when your account balance is back to zero. If you have changed your registered phone number, you are permitted to change back to the original number at any time.

If you would like to discuss this issue further, please write to me [email protected], ask for me personally in your email.

Regards,
April
