From App Store for Google Opinion Rewards (iOS users)
When you take a survey using Google Opinion Rewards, your answers are aggregated and shared with the market researcher who wrote the survey questions. Unless otherwise explicitly stated at the beginning of the survey, as is the case with location-based surveys, these answers are completely anonymous and not linked to any of your personally identifiable information. In exchange, we provide you, the user, money that is deposited into your linked PayPal account.


Disclaimer: This app may not be suitable for Pro-privacy users. This includes users who do not wish to share their location data, fill out surveys for market research, or are either not eligible or do not hold a PayPal account.

Also, do not quit your job. It is not a sustainable way to make an income.

Can confirm- I use it. I get surveys relatively frequently.



A note that they display. Do not try to game the system. Be honest. If you are not, you will get far less surveys, and may eventually get none. (Just an FYI from the Help Articles)

I'm in the UK so I guess that means I won't be eligible to use this... Shame.
It's definitely available in the UK. I've been using it for nearly a year now. However, unless you visit lots of shops regularly you won't receive many surveys. I have managed to get about £15 in credits which has paid for a few apps and games.

I'll try it out then, I didn't look further due to the comment above regarding it being America only... Thanks mate! :)

I used to get questions regularly but I haven't gotten any in months and neither has my wife.

I'm wondering if being bootloader unlocked/rooted has anything to do with it...

Unfortunately, app isn't available in my country. At least there is one good news - I can buy apps, music and movies via network provider. I just need to enter my phone number and when I buy the app, music or movie, I'll pay it with my account balance or, if I have postpaid, on next monthly bill. :)

It sounds nice but the "catch" would be having even more of your data being collected by Google.
