Survey Taking Experience

Take Interesting Surveys

Participate in interesting surveys on topics of interest to companies, as well as media and government bodies across the United States. Bear in mind that because this panel only accepts US members, many of the surveys will be of particular interest to Americans and are occasionally political in nature.

Survey Lengths and Frequency

Survey lengths are typically between 10-20 minutes and most members are contacted anywhere between 1-4 times a month to complete a study.

Mobile Surveys

For ultimate survey taking convenience, Unlock Surveys is fully accessible from tablet and mobile devices. There's no need to download an app! The best part about this feature is the smart technology, which allows you to start a survey on your desktop and continue it on your smartphone!

Requesting Rewards

Once you accumulate 25,000 points ($25) in your account, you can request a reward. Choose from one of many gift cards, prepaid VISA card, PayPal payments, and more. Once requested, your reward should arrive via email within a week. The types of rewards you can request include:

How Long does It Take?

September 4, 2015 by Sandy from United States

I tried to redeem $50.00 worth of points for promised Amazon gift cards. I was told this would take from 4 to 6 weeks. Why? Can I take that long to answer the survey questions? I redeemed points from Ipsos and got the gift cards forwarded within minutes. Hope this isn't another Zoom panel experience. Be prepared to wait it out.

Getting better for me

July 9, 2015 by Kevin from United States

The surveys are good just not quite enough of them. The have gotten better in my opinion.

My favorite Site

June 9, 2015 by Husam from United States

It's just made for me. I like the surveys, the layout, the payout, and everything. Sometimes you get one survey a week or less, other times you get 2 or 3 a day. The pay is good most of the times. It takes long to get to $50 to cashout, but I got bank deposits couple of times so far.

MUST BE A JOKE

Too long to wait

May 27, 2015 by donna from United States

50 dollars to win takes a long time here. Boring. Not worthy of my two year long time of survey taking and no reward.
