Points2Shop is an established online rewards program, or GPT (get-paid-to) website. Earn credits for completing online activities such as surveys and offers, playing games, shopping online, watching videos, and more. Points2Shop also has mobile apps available, making it easier to accumulate even more rewards.

How Points2Shop Works

  • Complete offers – complete various offers from a wide array of advertisers, and earn credits to your account. Some require credit cards, others do not. These range from activities such as participating in free trials, to obtaining free quotes, to filling out membership applications. Points2Shop claims to have a unique set of advertisers, some not found on other GPT websites.
  • Take surveys – there are plenty of surveys available through the website, with many being offered by providers such as Peanut Labs and uSamp.
  • Play games – earn points by playing online games. The twist? Bet your points in games against other players – winner takes all! If you’re good at playing video games, this could be a good way to accumulate points quickly.
  • Contests - Points2Shop regularly holds contests and lotteries. Contests are typically additional cash rewards for referring members.
  • Refer friends and earn – receive up to $1.00 for every American or UK member you refer (get $0.50 when they verify their e-mail address, and an additional $0.50 when they complete their first offer). Additionally, after that, receive up to 15% of what your American referrals earn on the site.

Payment and Rewards

Earn points which can then be redeemed for your choice of the millions of products on Amazon. Essentially, any product that you’d like to purchase on Amazon, you can do so on Points2Shop, using your points. Most products are delivered within a week of their request.

Every point on Points2Shop is worth 1 penny worth of Amazon rewards. Technically, you can request rewards with as little as $1 in your account, but not only will this not buy you much on Amazon, you won’t be able to take advantage of free shipping for the item. It’s best therefore, to wait until you have a healthier points balance before cashing out your balance.

Alternatively, if you’d like to redeem your points for cash, you can do so using Cashle (Point2Shop’s cash payment site) where you can get paid via PayPal, as well as by other online payment processors.

Community Features

Honor Levels

Points2Shop has 7 different honor levels, all which require different milestones to be achieved. These include things like completing a certain number of offers, requesting payment at least once, referring members, etc. They are: bronze, silver, gold, platinum, elite, diamond, and legend. Each level comes with its own set of benefits. For instance, achieve gold status and instantly receive any PayPal payment requests you make. Special honor levels are also available for “promoters”, or those who have referred a large number of members.

If you Like Amazon, Points2Shop is for you

Points2Shop has been around since 2007 and has over 13 million members, with over 230k Facebook fans. They have millions of members and have awarded over $11.5 million to their users. Points2Shop runs a large forum which has almost one million member posts.

Eligibility: You must be at least 18 years old or at least 13 years old with parental consent to join Points2Shop. Although the website is open to people worldwide, those from the USA, UK, and Canada may find that they have the most success with the website.

Irrelevant Surveys and Like to Ding your reputation

October 4, 2017 by kris from United States

This survey site is very one-sided, their side. They don't use profile information and just keep feeding surveys you don't qualify for. Meaning they don't know how to use profiles effectively, which is a sign of incompetence. They also like to capriciously ding and display your reputation. This is negative reinforcement, intolerance and pedantic. All in all this site is run by parsimonious, paranoid time wasters. Stay clear, save yourself aggravation and dejection, your personal value is much higher than these sickos.

Terribly banned!

August 10, 2017 by Alicia from Taiwan

Compared to the others who were banned before redeeming, I joined them yesterday,installed their app,and so far only get 4 points, then be banned today for no reason!
I even have not done any surveys.
On other hand, maybe I should feel lucky.

STEER CLEAR!!!!!

This site provides surveys for Vindale under the name YOUR-SURVEYS. You have to watch them every minute because they will cheat you BLIND on compensation EVERY chance they get. Their favorite excuse is "we didn't get paid so you don't get paid." Can you say COPOUT?? The Better Business Bureau has given them an "F" rating - that says it all.

If you have been cheated by this site (either as itself or as a partner to sites such as Vindale), file a complaint with the BBB.

The more people complain, the more pressure we can put on this site to clean up it's act and stop cheating people.

Update: Don't bother turning this company in to the BBB. They'll just ignore the BBB like they ignore those who complain directly to the survey site. So just do yourself a favor and RUN THE OTHER WAY FAST if you see their name associated with a survey you've been asked to do.

Left fast

Hello Vernon,

I am sorry that you are frustrated by the amounts our surveys pay. We do understand that the amounts offered can sometimes be less than desired. However, we do not have control over the amount our clients are willing to pay for surveys.

We always to work to put the user first and one way we do that is through the surveys which are presented to users. We present our users with the surveys that they have the most chance of qualifying for. We also ask our users to fill out profiler questions which we use to help match them to surveys to improve their chances of qualification even more.

Did you know that we also have an extension for chrome which enables you to earn an extra 20% on top of all internal surveys you complete? This extension not only enables users to increase their earning potential, but acts as a tool so we can diagnose problems with studies and report these issues back to our clients. This enables us to remove or fix problematic studies to improve your survey experiences.

I hope that you will consider giving us second chance and return to Points2shop. If you need assistance, please visit our forum or shout box where our moderators or members will help you get started again.

Kind Regards.
Not What it Used To Be, Dont Waste your Time

April 6, 2017 by Noelle from United States

I started on this site almost 4 years ago. This site I used to rave about and tell everyone to join, because a few years ago it was great. There was a lot of surveys, they partnered up with other sites like uSamp and LiveSample. They've become so dry and barren that its really not worth even joining or continuing a membership. Theres hardly any surveys available, and if there are they aren't worth more than 30 points (cents), they dont have any daily surveys you can take anymore. Its really just sad, and not worth it. Theres so many other great places to join, I definitely recommend PrizeRebel
