Create an account for 500 free points

With Toluna Influencers, creating an account takes only minutes. To create an account, answer a nine-question survey about yourself; your name, date of birth, gender, country of residence, zip code, desired password and mobile number (this is optional). Confirm your account by clicking the e-mail link and receive an instant 500 point credit to your account.

Take interesting surveys to earn rewards

Toluna offers their members surveys every day that are on a wide array of subjects including large consumer brands, your habits, and the environment you live in. Your opinions will directly impact companies and how they market, distribute or advertise new products and services to consumers like you.

Fill out the profilers for more points

When you first log into your account, you will be asked to complete the profile surveys (though this is optional). These short surveys are designed to help better match you to surveys so that you're primarily sent surveys you will qualify for. For every completed profile survey you complete, you will be awarded 100 points. You can update your profile surveys every 6 months to earn more points.

Payment and Rewards

How to Redeem Points

Upon joining and completing surveys and participating in games and other point-awarding activities, you will be credited with points. Once you have earned a minimum of 30,000 points ($10.00 worth), you can redeem your points for a selection of prizes.

Toluna Influencers offers an extensive rewards catalog. When you're ready to request a cash out from your Toluna Influencers account, click the Rewards button and choose from a wide variety of options:

  • PayPal payments - with 65,000 points in your account, you can request a $20.00 PayPal cash payment.
  • e-Gift cards - choose from a wide variety of digital gift cards, including Amazon, Boston Pizza, Apple, Starbucks, and many more. Gift cards can be redeemed with as few as 30,000 points ($10.00).
  • bitcoin - receive $30 USD in Bitcoin in exchange for 114,000 points, awarded via mybitcards.

Note that rewards options will vary based on your country of residence.

Toluna Points Value: 3,000 Points = $1.00 (though this varies slightly per reward chosen). Therefore, 30 points = $0.01.

Survey Taking Experience

toluna influencers surveys

Start taking surveys

The Surveys tab in your account will display a list of online surveys ready for you to fill out. You can choose to view surveys by Priority Surveys (which are recommended for you), Quick Surveys (short surveys), or by Premium Surveys (surveys that award more points than usual).

Every survey will display the estimated length of time it will take to complete, the topic of the survey, as well as how many points you will receive for completing it. Some surveys may offer a unique experience such as being a video survey or a diary style survey.

Points Earned Per Survey

The number of points you will earn per survey completion will vary and is based on things like the length and complexity of the survey. However, successful online survey completions typically award anywhere from 15 - 50,000 points each, and special surveys could offer even more.

Points Expiry

When points are credited to your account, they remain valid for 16 months. If after this period your points have not been used, they will automatically expire and be deleted from your account. Your points will not expire all at once; instead, points will expire 16 months after you originally earned them, so be sure to regularly redeem your points for rewards.

Disappointed in UK site

November 4, 2017 by David from United Kingdom

When I first started on the site, I could get an Amazon voucher every month or so.
This year it has been taking weeks and week from claiming vouchers to then be told they are 'not available' and being cancelled.
Lots of people deeply upset as different rewards no longer available so seem that they will not be sent before Christmas.

Extremely poor lack of engagement from the staff, if you email them to chase a payment , all you get is a stick answer.
Seems the level of integrity of the site has declined badly in the past months.

In all honesty, I am not sure it is worth anyone wasting their time and joining now.

If i could give no stars I would

October 30, 2017 by crystal from United States

They are terrible. They have stolen over 20k points that I have earned. I was saving them up for a 90k reward and I couldn't figure out why I never get there it is because they keeps "expiring" points at random. Over the last 6 months I have had a ton of points "expire" for no reason. They are not even a year old. They are frauds don't sign up through them. You will do a survey that says 10 mins and 45 mins into it it disqualifies you after it says you are finished and then they refuse to give you the points. They are a joke. They used to be good before they turned into toluna. I also did a 6 month panel through them and they owe me over 50 dollars. I have been emailing and of course no response.

DOESN'T PAY WHEN PROMISED

October 28, 2017 by Dave from United States

I WAS PROMISED PAYMENT 3 WEEKS AGO AND STILL HAVE NOTHING FROM THEM. CONTACTING THEM GETS YOU NOTHING MORE THAN A BRUSHOFF.

STAY AWAY, UNLESS YOU LIKE BEING MESSED OVER! I KNOW I WON'T BE GETTING INVOLVED IN ANY OF THEIR COMMUNITIES OR SURVEY SITES!!

Is Toluna the Titanic 2?

September 13, 2017 by Wilco from South Africa

Hardly any surveys are available. No product testing is available. Points due for competitions take weeks (if ever) to be credited to your account. Reward options are limited to Takealot or Paypal. Claimed rewards take in excess of 8 weeks to pay out. Complaints get dealt with in a don't care attitude!

Disappointing

September 4, 2017 by Anna from United Kingdom

I have been a member of Toluna for over 8 years always paying attention and being honest in my answers. The surveys were more frequent in the past, however in the recent few months it became less and less and since July I haven't been able to complete even one. I contacted them and the very same day got my account deactivated and my points forfeited. When I contacted them again, they said that "The details of our detection techniques, including specifics about your individual case, is proprietary information that we do not share externally". So basically they robbed me of my earnings, gave no reason for terminating my account and there's nothing I can do about it.
Stay away.
