MyView Review
My View
MyView is owned and operated by Authentic Response, Inc., a market research company founded in 1998 and provider of solutions for global online sampling using their Authentic Validation Process and Authentic Recruitment panelist sourcing techniques.
Members who complete free paid surveys earn MyView Points. Those who don’t qualify have a chance to receive “Just for Trying” points once they have been verified. Points are credited right away instead of waiting 2-3 weeks. Payout is through Prepaid Visa Cards and no longer via PayPal.
If members are inactive during a 4 month period, MyView may terminate his/her membership without notice. According to the Terms and Conditions (par. 2.6) found on their site:
MyView Points expire one (1) year from date such MyView Points were accrued. Any MyView Points not redeemed within one (1) year from date of accrual will be void at MyView’s discretion.
This might be contradictory to what is found in the FAQ section under Membership Rights and Responsibilities (Item 7) as stated below:
Do MyView Points (MVPs) ever expire?
Yes, but you can prevent that from happening! Make sure you log-in AT LEAST every 90 days or your account will be marked inactive, and your points will expire. The more you log-In, the more chances you have to earn rewards like Prepaid Visa Cards. As long as you remain active your points will never expire. You can continue to accumulate new points as long as you wish.
The MyView Rewards Program went through a makeover and transitionend from MyView Dollars to MyView Points in late 2010.
