This will help kick-start the number of surveys you will be eligible to complete. After completing the basic profile, you can also complete additional profile information regarding your household, shopping habits, etc. which will help you qualify for even more surveys.

Reward Amounts

Valued Opinions surveys typically reward between $1 and $7, although at times you may be sent unpaid surveys to help with identifying your unique interests. The typical survey takes 15-20 minutes to complete, however the estimated time is always outlined beforehand.

For every survey completion, you will receive "cash" deposited into your account immediately after completing a survey. This can be converted into a wide range of rewards.

Survey Rewards

Your Valued Opinions earnings can be redeemed for the following rewards once a minimum of $10 is collected:

• Magazine subscriptions - 1-year magazine subscriptions to Cosmopolitan, ELLE Decor, Food Network, Magazine Midwest Living, and Women's Health for $15 in rewards.

These rewards apply to USA members, though are very similar in other countries.

More Than Just Surveys!

they are charging you $5 for a $20 visa and you rarely get credited and most times...you just go through a series of questions and are not qualified all of a sudden...when I get my $22 out for a $20 Amazon card...I am OUT!!!!!

I rarely, if ever would receive a survey I would be able to complete. Over a 3 year peorid, I made a total of $11. Not worth it IMO.

I have now been waiting 60 days to be credited payments for ordinary surveys..they keep making excuses and keep changing the amount of time in which they credit rewards.used to be really great but slowly sliding down

The main issue I've had is how long it takes them to credit me for the surveys I've done. They tell you it can take up to 28 days, but I've got at least one, most likely still two, surveys that I completed back in June (it's now the end of August), and they're still listed under "pending." When I emailed them, I received an auto response saying that it could take anywhere up to 6 weeks..."or longer."

My other complaint is that--especially lately--I've been getting all sorts of emails for survey invitations, but when I click on them I just get a 404 message. At first I thought maybe the surveys had just filled up by the time I got to them, but this has happened with brand new invitations as well. When I go to my dashboard, there's nothing there.

And now I'm hearing that there's an extra fee just to collect rewards? No thanks. I'm certainly glad I wasted these past few months. My suggestion would be to switch to erewards; they don't have very many useful rewards (at least, not for me), but you rack up points REALLY quickly and you don't have to pay anything extra just to get your rewards.

This site used to be decent, but it is really bad now. They charge for $5 for a $25 Visa card. They actually charge $2 for an Amazon gift card?? I have survey that are 2, 3 months old that still have not been credited. Emails always take at LEAST a week to get responded to. You have to fight for every single dollar you make for them. Then when they do credit you, they credit you for less than what the survey was. I have been with them for 2 years, and I am seriously considering leaving. They have a bad choice of awards (safe to say that most people who do $1 surveys to make money won't use a spa certificate). I would not suggest them. Actually, I would warn against them
