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

  • 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.

Toluna = Waste of Time!

April 17, 2018 by Cinque from United States

This survey site, and any other site affiliated with them appears to be a complete waste of time. Today I was disqualified at the very end of a survey after doing it for 20-30 minutes. Don't waste your time with these types of survey sites. If I could give them 0/5 stars I would. I just added them to my blocksite app so I don't ever do their surveys again.

Waste of time

March 9, 2018 by Phillip from United Kingdom

Takes a long time to get enough points for anything worthwhile. Takes an even longer time to get your reward once you've claimed. Six to eight weeks!? For a voucher!?

Too good for my business

January 28, 2018 by Eric from United States

I tried to create an account, and it was two days before I received an email response with a confirmation code that was time sensitive! Seriously?! Apparently, their time is infinitely more important than mine. Unfortunately, I wasn't around when this time sensitive email finally arrived.

Anyway, I try to reset my password, and "an unknown error" occurs. I try to recreate my account, and it says, "email already taken." I send a help ticket, and a Robert Freeman replies, "I checked and found that your account was flagged while performing a regular review of our database. As a result, I am sorry to inform you that the account was closed. Thank you for your understanding. All the best, Robert Freeman"

I replied, "I never got to complete a survey, or any other activity that might result in my account getting "flagged." I was waiting for a confirmation code to OPEN my account. So, you're going to need a better explanation than that. If you cannot provide one, then I will report you to the BBB and several review sites, quoting this exchange." Two days later, no response. So here I am.

Evidently, they don't want people. So perhaps they don't want to be in business anymore.

Got to be the slowest Payment?

January 13, 2018 by Doug from United Kingdom

If you have a Toluna account, DO NOT close it no matter how bad they are, as suddenly you'll find that any redirection to Toluna from other survey sites will result in immediate disqualification from offered survey. (Happened on my last 40 redirected surveys!)

Zero stars is more accurate

December 31, 2017 by linda from United States

Zero stars is more accurate. I really liked Toluna at first. Lots of good surveys when I felt like doing some, and I was getting compensated with gift cards for all the work I was putting in in my spare time. Then suddenly I was having trouble logging in so brought it to their attention. I got the exact canned response as I see that MANY others got accusing me of not being truthful and inconsistent and "system red flags" and they have banned me from their site, making me forfeit all my current points... conveniently when I was at the $25 cash-out point... conveniently as I see they have done to MANY others. Yes, they ripped me off too, no warning, out of the blue. It only took a little google search to see this is their recurring method of operation. I have been doing surveys since the 1980s and this is a first. Obviously they don't want people putting in too much time or earning very much or they kick you out. Toluna is THE worst I have come across, closely followed by Harris poll. I highly recommend avoiding both at all costs.
