Harris Poll Online offers consumers an easy rewards and incentives system with a variety of offers for members to participate in, due to its partnership with over 500 PR firms.

Features and Services

Harris Poll Online is a worldwide research company that enables users from around the globe to participate in surveys and other activities for which they can earn gift cards in return. The online platform is structured around "HIpoints" which members can then use to redeem rewards.

Members earn 15 HIpoints for every activity in which they participate, even if they've been disqualified while completing a survey. Surveys typically take between 15 and 20 minutes to finish, but there are also short surveys which only take around 5 minutes to complete.

Apart from the giftcards reward system, Harris Poll Online also runs a quarterly sweepstakes for its users. Members can use their points to purchase an entry into the HIstakes where they have a chance to win up to $10,000.

The online platform does not give cash rewards for their members for their participation. Sweepstakes and gift cards are the only choice users have for redeeming the points they've accumulated. Reward processing takes only 7 to 15 business days, and are sent directly to the user’s e-mail.

I have been tying for 3 months to collect my rewards points. Cant login and when they sent a password reset link it expired within a couple of hours. I cant sit in front of a computer all day and hope they will send it. Now 5 emails which are not going thru i have no recourse but to write to them and suggest that this is one big fraud.

Wow.. I am having the same issue with trying to login to my account. I still get invites for surveys but I never seem to qualify. What a way to treat a long time survey taker!!!!

I was a member for many years. After a short hiatus of a couple of months, I tried to log on and was unable to do so. I contacted technical support and was told that my account was closed because of inactivity and that I had not logged on for more that 12 months. I checked my records and found out that this was not the case. I had contacted them about a survey issue within the past 6 months. I was also told that all my points were forfeited and that once an account is 'unsubscribed' it can never be reactivated. I have decided to move on and work for other survey companies that have better customer support. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this Survey company. Something happened in the past year... Read More

I was actually a member of this site for many years, and was very satisfied, until a about 18 mos ago. At that time and for no reason, I was no longer able to access my account. They took my over $50 in reward and have ignored all my communications to resolve this. I finally received a notification that I should sign up under a different email and should be able to restore my account and points. I did that, and still cannot access the site or my previous account. I have seen on social media and other areas, that I was one of very many people they did this to, and I believe it was their way of avoiding paying past participants what we were owed, and then by preventing us from accessing the...

I have been with them for years and until recently was very satisfied. For some reason my account got closed mistakenly. I managed to contact them and they said I clluld rejoin and have my points transferred but would need to register to another email address. I've done that but now can't get through the first page of survey invite as it asks for Zip Code and won't accept Post code. I've tried contacting them but the online help form wont work properly and I can find no other way to contact them
