### "A comprehensive explanation of my personal experience with YouGov"

November 4, 2022

5.0

I worked on YouGov as a user for a long time, and I do not remember that I faced any problem. I completed the surveys in a faster time than many companies that specialize in the same field. All the surveys I dealt with are very simple and enjoyable, and the navigation between pages is very easy and makes the person complete it to the end without getting bored, and the rewards are rewarding. Transfer it to PayPal after it reaches 50 dollars.

Pros

Ease of dealing with questionnaires and saving time and effort to understand the survey for the person who deals with the survey to become fast, fun and not boring and finish the survey in a quick time and the simplicity of the tires and ease of dealing with it is interesting to fill out the survey

Cons

There are no negatives to mention, or I did not notice that because of the many positives, but I still note the reports, I think they should be clearly detailed

### "National survey experience "

November 13, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with YouGov is great the platform is good to gain some extra income and the surveys never screenout

Pros

What I like most about YoGov surveys is how fast the surveys are and the topics are based on everyday life activities

Cons

What I like least is the payout process because it's too much points to cash out to get a payment it takes a long time

January 6, 2026

1.0

Not good when I was about to redeem my points they blocked me as not human. Messaged frequently to customer support but no response it’s almost two months now

Pros

Surveys are good. Well organised.Language is easy to understand.It is not time consuming. It goes with a flow.

Cons

Sometimes you get disqualified after spending time on that surveys so you don’t get points for those .

### "YouGov is a very easy to use and reliable survey app."

March 30, 2025

5.0

My experience with YouGov as a whole is exceptional, apart from the issues I mentioned above. But I don't have much to complain about this wonderful application. I highly recommend it to anyone!

Pros

The app is very easy to use, and it has a huge global reach and a large audience in several countries. It also has reliable data. I really like using it to send out daily surveys, and I highly recommend it.

Cons

It is a bit limited in terms of customization, it doesn't have that many options to allow for so many customizations through it. Apart from the technical issues with the system being slow. But other than that, the application is excellent.

### "Yougov Self-Serve Survey"

March 30, 2025

5.0

Overall experience is great. It worked really well for what I intended to use it for and got good results.

Pros

I like that they have a large group of people that you can survey and that they have profiles so that you know which people are best for the survey. Thay also have very quick surveys, anywhere from 24 to 48 hours you can have results on a survey.

Cons

I believed that it could be a little simpler setup overall. I have worked with some better set up surveying softwares in the past.

### "YouGov application is a very good source to earn money"

July 15, 2021

5.0

I am using this application since 2 years I have never faced any kind of problem while doing a survey. In this application, you will get from 25 points to 500 points of 1 survey, this is a very good thing. I have taken a withdrawal of 5000 points many times, after a few days of doing the withdrawal my money comes in my account.

Pros

1\. I opened an account on YouGov a few years ago, then I got 0.05 euros for opening the account. 2. Its withdrawal process is very good, as soon as you get 5000 points in your account, then you can withdraw in Paytm immediately. 3. 2. You will get the survey on your registered email address in which there will be a link to complete the survey, completing which you will get some points

Cons

1\. If seen, only 5, 10 surveys come in a month. 2. Withdrawal limit is too high. 3. Very few services come in this application, due to which the earning is very slow.

### "Helping my business "

May 20, 2022

5.0

Great for honest feedback from customers. To see what people like and don't like. Plus can answer other people's questions and give my own feedback

Pros

I like that I can phrase surveys and polls in a different easier way. Great for helping me see feedback to better improve my sales. I like that I can see the good and the bad through surveys. Polls gives other chance to let me know what they want and don't want.

Cons

When I use it to do surveys or polls on other companies and people some times the options are long and can be boring after answering long ones.

### "Make your voice heard"

July 20, 2022

5.0

Pros

YouGov offers surveys that cover important topics, and is widely respected. Offers reward points that can be redeemed for gift cards.

Cons

Occasionally, there are technical glitches, but not too often. Sometimes the same questions are asked more than once in a single survey.

### "Great but slow "

May 26, 2022

4.0

I've cashed out 3x in the two years I've used it and they are great and always come through. Would give a whole 5\* if they payout rate per poll were higher

Pros

I love the fact that you can do daily polls and earn money in just a few minutes each day and that your opinion might make a difference

Cons

I hate how long it takes to get payouts. It's low paying for each poll

### " AUCUN RESPECT-AUCUNE RECONNAISSANCE"

August 2, 2024

1.0

17 ANS que je fais des sondages pour Yougov !!! J'ai échangé mes points pour une carte cadeau Decathlon de 50 €, un lien m'a été adressé pour un voyage. Après plusieurs mails, on m'a gentiment répondu qu'il n'était pas possible de faire d'échange. Je leur ai expliqué que cela ne m'intéressait pas, je suis handicapée, je ne voyage pas et l'erreur vient de leur service et rien j'ai perdu 50 €, du temps et de l'énergie. Je ne les conseille pas. Aucune reconnaissance.

Pros

AUCUN avantage,, vous n'êtes pas reconnu

Cons

TOUS, un pion parmi tant d'autre qui n'est pas écouté

### "YouGov Pesquisas Remuneradas"

March 26, 2025

5.0

Já utilizo este aplicativo já algum tempo, e já realizei diversas pesquisas de diversos produtos e fui remunerada por isso. Tive algumas dificuldades para receber uma recompensa, mas foi resolvido e melhorado esta questão. Continuo usando, pois confio nesta empresa e creio que ela faz o seu melhor a cada dia para estar atendendo seus usuários da melhor forma possível. No geral minha experiência com ela tem sido gratificante. Continuarei usando e indicando.

Pros

O que eu mais gostei foi a opção de transferência bancária ter sido incluída como opção de retirada.

Cons

O que eu não gostei, foi da opção de retirada pelo cartão visa crédito quando, pois tive uma experiência ruim com esta opção quando utilizei, pois só aceitava em compras on-line, então na minha opinião não é interessante.

### "App YouGov sondaggi"

April 15, 2025

5.0

Abbastanza pratica perché facile da capire anche se in lingua inglese ma permette di imparare alcuni termini finanzari

Pros

Facilità nell’aprire l’applicazione,comoda e utile per guadagnare qualche centesimo e pratica perché per iOS che possiedo

Cons

Guadagno pochissimo nonostante i tanti sondaggi eseguiti e non credo sia molto plausibile visto il periodo avanzato in ambito della tecnologia in cui ci troviamo

O melhor recurso desse site é oferecer pesquisas para podermos ganhar pontos e trocar por dinheiro. é muito fácil de usar.tem interação com as empresas que troca os pontos por dinheiro.Eu amo esse site me ajuda a ganhar um dinheiro extra.

Cons

Acho que deveria ter mais pesquisa para juntar mais rápido os pontos para trocar em dinheiro.é facil de usar. as pesquisas deveriam ter um número maior de pontuação para agente sacar mais rápido no site. e eles coletam nossos dados é um pouco perigoso.

### "analysis of the YOUGOV research site"

April 5, 2021

3.0

Pros

Is a good research site, where I use it for a long time, I love its easy language and layout. Super indicate for those who want to work answering surveys. The best thing about this platform is that as soon as you sign up, you will earn points. Payment is made from 18000 points, payment is in real currency.

Cons

The only thing I did not like was that there is no affiliate program like the others and if you are not selected for research you will end up not receiving any score, thus taking the score to redemption.
