My Points

I have a bit of fondness towards My Points because it was one of the first get paid sites that I joined way back in the early 2000's. It was my gateway drug. lol.

On MyPoints, you can earn points by completing surveys, playing games, shopping rebates, and doing different offers. There are tons of gift cards you can pick from when you are ready to cash out your points, including PayPal. The downside is that it is not instant and usually takes about 3 - 5 business days to get your reward after you cash out. Offers vasty vary on the rewards they give, but there are plenty of opportunities to earn them.

I wouldn't say surveys are the best way to earn points on My Points, and you could be spending time doing surveys other places and earn more. That being said, there are opportunities for product testing, focus groups, and invitations for external communities that will pay you outside of the platform. Many of these won't be indicated as such and will just look like a regular survey when it is actually a qualifier for something more involved. I've gotten to do product testing for a Shark product, trash bags, toilet paper, cat food, cookies, and more. I've also qualified for multiple different other testing communities that I'm still involved in and still get paid from months later. It's just if you have the time and patience to do the surveys to find those gems.

Personally, since I earn much more on other sites, I tend to just check MyPoints on the weekends on in the evening when studies slow down and see if there is anything I qualify for, or if there are any free and easy offers to earn points. There's also daily bonuses you can earn from just logging in or answering a quick poll. Sometimes they send out promotional emails that will earn you 5 points for clicking the link inside.

While MyPoints isn't the highest earner, it is nice to fill in the times when other sites are slow.
