You most probably have heard about this survey site called Yougov. It claims to be a site where you can earn money by sharing your opinions.

Now, whether it is legit or not, we will look at that in detail in this Yougov review. Here, in addition to the legitimacy aspect, we will also give information briefly about the account creation process, the work available, and the withdrawal methods.

And at last, I will conclude this review with my opinion on whether you should join this site or not and if there is any better alternative to it.

What is Yougov?

 

 

Yougov is a site which has been in its field for many years. It was founded in 2000 in the UK. It is a market research company where they collect information for companies and the information is collected by some members. Those members get paid for their input.

Also, if you are a person who understands a video better than reading an article then watch our Yougov review video on youtube. It has English captions too. So, language should not be a problem. Also, you will get to see the interface of the website, how it looks and how to sign up, etc.

They also have an application too. So, you can download the yougov app from Play Store or Appstore.

Now, let’s look at the legitimacy of this site because the sooner this doubt gets solved, the better it is.

Is Yougov legit?

 

This company has been around since 2000. Since it has been around for so long, then it definitely screams “I am legit” itself. But, still, let’s look at reviews of it online.

In Trustpilot, it has a rating of 4.5 stars out of 5 stars and it falls under the excellent category. Also, it has 18,178 reviews. You can definitely be sure that this is a legit site because 18000+ people have voted an average of 4.5 ratings.

Also, we have done our proper research online, while writing this Yougov review and didn’t find any negative reviews about this site being fake or scam. So, you can definitely be sure of the question “Is yougov legit?” that this is a 100% legit site.

How to join Yougov?

 

To join this site, you need to click on the sign-up button. There you would find two options:

1. Join as a member

2. Join as a business

Now, since this review is about earning through the Yougov site. Thus, we will look at the ‘Join as a member’ option.

As you click on the ‘join as a member’ option. You would require to put in your e-mail address. But, before putting the e-mail, you need to select the country and that option is below the space given to provide your e-mail. Many people miss this option as they don’t see it and afterwards, they again have to change the country.

After you select your country you will get a new interface, where there would be a start option. As you click on it you will see a page welcoming you, then on the next page, they will ask for your birth date, then gender, then e-mail, and then they will ask for a verification code. After that, your account would be ready.

Also, you will get a total of 25 points as you create your account. Now, your account is ready and you can start taking yougov surveys.

What are the methods to earn money?

 

 

The methods to earn money from here is really limited because they just offer survey as an option to earn.

1. Yougov surveys: This is a survey site so there is just one option to earn from and that is through yougov surveys. Now, they will notify you through their e-mail as soon as a new survey gets available. Also, they don’t notify for every available survey they rather notify for the survey you can do and are available for your locality.

The pay rate and the frequency of yougov surveys are also good compared to the other survey sites. They offer a much better rate for the time spent per survey. Also, you would get anywhere from 5-10 surveys per week. Also, it won’t take much time to complete each survey. You can complete one survey in a minimum of 5 minutes and at a maximum it might go up to 20 minutes. But, the pay rate is really good for the time spent on the survey.

Also, you might even be able to see the opinion of your surveys in their newsletter which is published monthly. They publish the surveys that got quoted in national and international sites. So, you do know that these surveys are getting used somewhere.

 

2. Referral program: This option is available for some specific countries only. So, if your country has this option available then you can check your link out as soon as you log in. You can share this link with your friends.

Once, your friend joins the site and takes a certain number of surveys here, then you will earn a certain amount, the amount won’t be huge though rather it would be a really small amount. But, still getting such a small amount without doing any work is also better than getting nothing.

How to withdraw your earnings?

 

To withdraw your earnings from Yougov, the options that are available will be different from country to country.

In some countries, you will have PayPal as an option to withdraw, in some countries, you will get gift cards from popular e-commerce platforms of your country or they even organise lotteries too as a mode of withdrawal in some countries.

Also, the threshold limit too differs from country to country.

In India, they just have gift cards from some really popular e-commerce platforms as a mode of withdrawal. They offer gift cards for Flipkart, Levi’s, MakeMyTrip, Myntra, and Nykaa.

The threshold limit is 5000 coins and the value that you will get of these 5000 coins is Rs.3,600. So, you will get a gift card of Rs.3,600 for shopping which is a really good amount in India.  

The value of coins would also differ from country to country. You need to check yourself out about the threshold, payment system and worth of coins in your country.

 

Conclusion

Yougov is a market research company where brands come to take opinions from people. They have a member option to join this site, and by joining as a member, one can take surveys and earn some money as a reward in yougov.

This is surely a legit site as it has been in this field since around the 2000s. Also, the review of this site in Trustpilot was excellent.

The earning system is also good as it offers a good amount for your time spent per survey. The frequency of the surveys is also good compare to other survey sites. You can expect for 5-10 surveys per week.

The withdrawal system is also good but it differs from country to country. You can have PayPal, gift cards or some lottery contests as withdrawal options depending upon the country you live in.

The threshold limit also differs from country to country and the coins value too.

So, to get a detailed knowledge about the withdrawal options, value of coins and the threshold limit, of any other country than India; then first you need to create an account. But, if you are from India, then you can check that out from the article itself.

So, if you want to know my opinion about this site, then I would definitely recommend anyone to join this site who wants to earn some extra money without needing to spend much time.

Also, if you are from a country where yougov doesn’t have your desirable withdrawal options, then you can check for this alternative survey site called “Surveylama”. This is a legit site and to decide whether this would be your ideal site or not check out the Surveylama review [HERE].
