In order to cash out you need a phone number which I changed. Now I have to wait 180 days or delete all my money to update phone number. Officially the worst survey site ever no wonder it has a 2 star rating.

Hi RD,
Your phone number and PayPal email are used to validate your account, so a change to either one requires extra steps to protect your account. Our Freeze/Burn policy is outlined in our FAQs, and we encourage all users to review our Terms of Service and policies before joining. Additionally, you are prompted to choose between freezing or burning your earnings when updating your information, ensuring awareness of this process.
We may occasionally make exceptions to this policy on a case-by-case basis if there are no issues with your account, but we are unable to do so if you do not reach out to our support team.

Paid Viewpoint had it going for them at…
Paid Viewpoint had it going for them at first. They offered a lot of different, well qualifying, and paid incentives. Until I made the required $15 to cash out. There were some issues and maybe they will make an exception as they have stated they sometimes do for accounts with no outstanding issues.. I guess I will give that a try and finish my review.

Hi Amy,
Your phone and PayPal are used to validate and secure your account. This is why changing either one requires you to select to freeze or burn your earnings. We sometimes offer exceptions to this policy for members with accounts in good standing (no outstanding issues) who have not previously received an exception. Requests for exceptions that come with threats, demands, or expectations of approval are not granted.
We do not threaten to close accounts. What we do is notify members that if they continue submitting tickets about an issue that has already been addressed multiple times, those tickets may be marked as spam. Our platform automatically bans any user who reaches 10 spam tickets.
If you would like us to review your account again, please feel free to reach out.

Dont waste your time here
Dont waste your time here. I have used some of the worse survye app, I can confidently say that this is the worst.
For a survey app, thye dont have any survey. They should just shut down
Response from PaidViewpointJun 23, 2025
We don't guarantee any specific schedule for surveys, as it is based entirely on what our clients order and if you match the demographic they're researching.
To maximize the number of surveys you see, we recommend you make sure that your notifications are turned on, your demographics are filled out completely, and you are checking your dashboard throughout the day for surveys that aren't emailed out.
If you would like further assistance, please open a support ticket through your dashboard so our support team can take a look at your account to see if there is a different issue.

Hi Rose, We understand your frustration. We do pay members for the surveys they complete, and we are always available to help with any issue that falls within our Terms of Service.
We do not get many reviews here, but SurveyPolice and both app stores have thousands more that may give a clearer picture of our platform. If you believe something was missed, please reach out through your dashboard so we can take another look.

Would not let me cash out despite the fact email is linked
I reached 15 bucks to cash out, I connect my PayPal (which does have my entered email linked to it as a side email, it's just that the main email is different), and it claims I verified the wrong email despite the fact I absolutely didn't, and the only options are for me to "burn my earnings" (lose them all, which is unethical irregardless of the TOS) or freeze them for 180 days. I was doing this site because surveys are one of my few sources of income, but I will not be using it in the future. Highly suggest you stay clear of this site, especially if you depend on surveys like I do.
Response from PaidViewpointMay 23, 2025
Hi there,
Thanks for sharing this. We understand how frustrating that experience must have been.
To cash out, your PayPal account must have the exact same email address as the one registered to your PaidViewpoint account. Even if the email is linked as a secondary on PayPal, their system requires the primary email to match exactly.
Please review our FAQs for more details on why we have the freeze/burn policy when changing your PayPal or phone number.
If you’re open to it, please reach out through a support ticket from your dashboard—we’d be glad to look into your account directly and offer guidance.

why wait three days if the pay is nothing
it's great and all but i only get one survey per day and it pays me 3cents for each survey ,by the way the survey is even after every three days ,all i am saying is if one survey is going to take three days why is the pay so small.
Response from PaidViewpointMay 22, 2025
Hi Lawal,
Those are called Trait Surveys. They aren’t designed to pay much because they don’t make money for us—they help build your profile so we can match you with higher-paying Research Surveys. You can check your Earnings tab to see which type you’ve been taking, and contact support from your dashboard if you need help.

Your previous account is likely still available under your registration email. Please clear your cache and cookies, open a new browser window, navigate to paidviewpoint.com, and login directly with your original email.
If you are still having issues, please email [email protected]. They'll be happy to assist you with accessing your original account.

Probably the worst survey site I’ve…
Probably the worst survey site I’ve ever come across. Literally pay you $.10 for most of the surveys and they only come once every couple of days.
I used the site whilst on holiday for a week and my account was put on hold. They wanted very personal information to be uploaded, which I’m definitely not going to do. They have kept my money because I didn’t reach the threshold of $15. Avoid this at all costs. Life is too important to waste time with this firm.
Response from PaidViewpointApr 9, 2025
We understand that being on holiday and encountering account issues can be frustrating, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify our policies.
Our platform is designed to provide our clients with highly specific research data, which is why accurate demographic and location information is essential. When a member logs in from a location different than their registered residence, it affects the integrity of the survey panels our clients rely on. This is why we request that members provide current, verifiable documentation of their residence if discrepancies arise.
Regarding your concerns:
• Location Verification and Documentation:
We require documentation—such as a recent utility bill, bank statement, or tax bill—to confirm your registered address. This is not an arbitrary request. It ensures that the research data we deliver is accurate and meets the strict criteria set by our clients. We fully understand concerns about privacy and data security; please be assured that you are welcome to redact any information outside of your name, address, date, and the issuing entity. You refused to provide us any documentation.
• Holiday Logins:
Our FAQ clearly states that logging in while away from your registered location can lead to issues with your account; this is even the first question listed. This policy is in place to help maintain the quality and consistency of responses needed for our research projects. We encourage all members to review our TOS, FAQs, and Privacy Policy before registering to understand the conditions of a membership.
• Cash-Out Policy:
As indicated in our TOS and Reward Rules, funds in your account are subject to a minimum threshold of $15 before a cash-out request can be processed. Our rewards system is structured so that once you meet this threshold, you’ll be able to request redemption of your earnings. Until then, rewards remain “unvested” as part of our standard policy, which applies to all members consistently.
We always strive to balance the needs of our diverse member base with the strict requirements of our clients. While we recognize that traveling is part of life, these policies are in place to ensure fairness and maintain the high standards expected by our research partners.
We genuinely value your participation and are available to further discuss any concerns you may have. Thank you again for your feedback and for giving us a chance to explain our process.
