Today I’m writing about another reward program, this time from Facebook/Meta. It’s a mobile app that provides data collection surveys of assorted types. It’s a bit of a waiting game for when they will provide surveys and to what degree or scale, but when you get the surveys, they are generally easy to complete and pay decently well.

One example of a study includes app usage collection. This may be considered a privacy risk, but all surveys are opt-in, and it’s important to note that the data they collect can be retrieved by most applications without a payout. I actively get a recurring study for this one that pays out 85 points every two days, where 200 points is the value of a dollar.

Another recurring study I have encountered include an AI usage survey, where they asked what AI models and services I used over the past two days, with a 250 point payout for each occurrence.

Some longer tasks included audio training, where you may need to record 100 or so queries someone might ask a voice assistant. Each of these studies I participated in paid out 1,000 points, which is equivalent to five dollars.

Notifications need to be on for Meta Viewpoints, you can get notified by the app and by email when new surveys are available, but it’s important to note that the number of participants they need are limited, so new survey studies may close out fast.

The payout structure is simple:
You can cash out at 5 dollar increments to gift cards, or it will automatically cash out when you are at 10,000 points (fifty dollars) or supposedly around 90 days it will automatically cash out. So it’s important to keep an eye out on your email if you plan to accrue points as it may cash out automatically.
Cash outs are for gift cards delivered via Tremendous, which is a well-established service that allows receivers to choose the gift cards of your choice, such as Amazon.com and Target gift cards, and sometimes Visa prepaid cards.

You can sign up for Meta Viewpoints by downloading the Android or iOS apps.

Today I’ll bring up a short easy lazy service for some spare change, Google Opinion Rewards.

It’s straightforward, have the app on your device, and get occasional survey notifications that take a few moments to complete. Usually, I get location-based surveys based on places I’ve been or driven past, explain if and how I paid at a store, and sometimes upload a receipt from a grocery store, gas station or fast-food chain. Sometimes I’ll get previews of Google Play store listings asking me to rate how interesting they appear to me.

Sound very Android-specific? Apple users aren’t excluded as they can participate too. On Android, you earn several cents and dollars for each short survey directly added to your Google Play balance which can be used for app and in-app purchases, subscriptions, rentals, etc. On iOS, it’s actually more flexible because you can cash out directly to your PayPal account to use any way you like.

Information on the Google Opinion Rewards referral link:
It can be visited on an Android or iOS device only and will 404 otherwise. A brief initial survey will be given initially.

Information on the PayPal referral link:
If signing up for a new account in the US, you can earn 1000 rewards points (worth a $10 redemption value) by connecting a bank account or card and then spending $5 within 30 days.
