Opinion Outpost Information

Opinion Outpost is a survey research panel that is provided by Western Wats, a survey research data collection company based in Utah. The Opinion Outpost website has a western theme, but trust me their market research has nothing to do with that. They work with marketing research companies from all over the world as well as many Fortune 500 companies. The Opinion Outpost market research panel accepts members 18 and older from the US and Canada.
Membership to their panel is free, and they offer points redeemable for cash for members that participate and complete their online survey studies. In addition members that attempt a survey study but do not complete it can participate in their choice of an instant win or sweepstakes game.

How to Earn Money with Opinion Outpost

  1. Get started by completing the online registration process.
  2. Then be sure to login to the members area and complete the profile surveys. The more
    profiles you complete, the more survey invites you are likely to receive.
  3. After joining you can find information on current studies by checking your email for survey invitations, and by logging into the Opinion Outpost member’s area and clicking on the Available Surveys link. Each survey link will indicate the number of reward points you can earn. It can take up to one month to start receiving survey initiations, so be patient!
  4. Then just complete surveys and earn points. Most surveys pay anywhere from 10 points to 100 points. If you do not qualify for the survey study, you usually still get a chance to participate in one of several instant win or sweepstakes games in exchange for your effort.

Payment Terms

  • 10 Opinion Points = $1.00 and you must accumulate a minimum of 50 Opinion Points ($5.00) to request your cash reward.
  • Payments are sent via a Check and can take up to 4-6 weeks from the date of redemption for your check to arrive.
  • Stay Active on the panel! You must take at least one survey every 3 months or your Opinion Points will expire. So if you plan on not taking surveys for a while, be sure to redeem your point first.

Conclusion

Opinion Outpost conducts a lot of survey studies though are other online survey panels, so it is not uncommon to get redirected several times when doing their surveys. This allows them to have many survey opportunities for their members which makes it rather easy to reach the minimum payout threshold.

Don't recommend

I get a lot of suveys from this site, however I do not qualify for any. I tried for months to qualify but I just don’t understand what they are looking for. I don’t bother wasting my time, just click delete when I see an email…..

ONE OF THE BEST SITES

This is one of my favorite survey sites. Presently, I receive from 3-5 invitations a week. I do admit that some of their surveys are too long, but the rewards accumulate so fast, I try to complete most ot them and lately after requesting payment I’ve been receiving my check within 2 weeks. . If you get tired before completing your survey you can stop and continue later as long as the survey is open. I have earned as much as $35 a month sometimes a little more.. The only thing I don’t like is being redirected to another survey company, usually OTX, which I don’t particularly like, for some reason.
OTX has tons of open surveys they offer and sometimes it may take you 20-30 mins to get one that you qualify for. Usually, after trying a few, I just delete it.. With all that, I still think this is one of the better survey sites.

Recommended

Opinion outpost has been one of my favorites. I receive about 5 – 10 surveys a week for which I qualify for about a third of them, the quality is usually pretty good, and the rewards are good, too. The pay out is fast as well: I usually receive a check within 2 – 3 weeks. However, they do host quite a lot of OTX surveys and these should be avoided: with these you never get rewarded for your work. I usually delete these right away to avoid wasting my time on them.

They Don't Want Me, Apparently

I left Opinon Outpost sometime in 2008 after they left me. It had been a favorite, but suddenly the invites disappeared and when I asked member support what was going on I thought their answer was pretty insulting so I left. However, I decided to re-join them in 2009 to see if anything had changed. Well, nothing changed for me. I have received absolutely zero invites for the past nine to ten months. So it is difficult to rate any aspect of the site since I have yet to receive a survey invite. However, it is difficult to say why I am not getting any invites since all Opinion Outpost will say is my demographics have not met their needs. Curiously, my demographic is much desired on other survey sites. So, I have nothing good to say about Opinion Outpost.

Easy, $$, hard to qualify

been with OO for a couple months now and I’ve had an overall positive experience. usually receive 2 – 5 survey opportunities per week. qualifying is not very consistent, but such is the nature of the survey beast. rewards are quick and easy with the ability to redeem points toward an instant balance on Amazon.com – instant gratification is appreciated.

refer a friend feature is also nice. $2 if someone signs up under your account and completes one survey.

Amazing and beyond

I joined MANY survey sites and this is actually my top one! They send me atleast 1-3 survey invites a day and I usually qualify. Whereas, alot of OTHER survey sites will drag me halfway through their surveys just to tell me (when I’m about 90% finished) that I do not qualify…
If I don’t qualify for a survey on Opinion Outpost, they tell me right away (but like I said, I usually qualify). Also, this site def. pays the most for each survey, and the best part is right after you take the survey, you can look at your “Rewards” and it lists your new balance of points. Other survey sites make me wait for atleast 2-7 days for my point balance to change to the correct new amount. And sometimes, these other survey sites don’t even give me my points for specific surveys-but Opinion Outpost has never made a mistake.
