You can go ahead and take surveys without being a member, but then you'd miss out on all the perks! Signing up is a breeze! No, spending lots of time filling out pages and pages of demographics and preferences. It only takes a minute! Here's the nitty gritty on joining Tellwut:
- Open to USA and Canada residents age 18 and older
- One account per household
- 100 Points for joining (only takes a minute to join!)
- 100 More Points for verifying your email and filling out Profile (name, address so they know where to send your rewards)
- 5 - 10 Points for every survey you complete
- 15 + Points if it's a business survey you complete
- 25 Points for every referral
- Rewards can be redeemed at 4000 points (3500 if you want a WWE wrestling dvd)
4000 Points may seem like a lot, but you will be amazed at how quickly those points add up. The day I joined, I had earned over 1100 points from all the surveys I took and my sign up points! I only wish I had been more active the first few months, cause I sure missed out on a lot of surveys. Look at this screenshot of my order history:
It shows I redeemed my first 4,000 points for a $10 Amazon Gift Card on June 5, 2012 and my second redemption was 10,000 points for a $25 Walmart Gift Card on July 30, 2012. Both times they arrived at my house in 2-3 days via postal mail. Now that is pretty awesome and fast too! You can see how quickly the points added up for me since the redemptions were not far apart and I even added an extra $15 to my second one! :)
Here is the list of rewards offered so far:
- 4000 Points = $10 Gift Card to: Amazon,
Walmart, Home Depot, Future Shop or Best Buy Canada ($10 Walmart card is no longer offered as of 12/06/12) - 4200 Points = $10 Gift Card to Cineplex (Canada only)
- 10,000 Points = $25 Gift Card to Amazon or Walmart
- 15,000 Points = Tellwut T-Shirt
- 20,000 Points = $50 Amazon Gift Card
- 40,000 Points = $100 Amazon Gift Card
- 100,000 Points = $250 Amazon Gift Card
- 250,000 Points = Motorola XOOM Android Tablet
When taking surveys at Tellwut, I highly recommend checking back often throughout the day. I have it set as a favorite on my toolbar so all I have to do is click on the Tellwut icon and if there is a new survey to take, it comes up automatically. One tip to make sure you are getting all the surveys is to click on the "Home" tab after every survey you complete. If there is another survey to take, it will come up. If nothing happens, then that means there aren't any new ones to take at that time. Rest assured, it won't be long before there are more added though. Plus you can always create your own to keep them coming in. You are allowed to create 2 surveys a day, so take advantage of that! When you create a survey and they approve it to be used, not only do you get the points for creating one, BUT you also get points for taking it! :)
Another thing that is unique at Tellwut.....Have you ever wished you could comment on a survey afterwards? Well, now you can! Under the "Account" tab you will find a list of all the surveys you've ever taken at Tellwut. To comment on any of them, just click on the survey and under the "Results" tab you can scroll down and read other members comments and add your own if you wish. Just remember to play nice and have fun! You will most likely see me there as I comment fairly often. Come join in the fun!
I also have to say that if you ever need to contact Tellwut for any reason, you will be pleasantly surprised at how nice, friendly and professional the staff is AND they respond quickly too! That is hard to come by these days and they sure do a great job!
Don't waste anymore time, join Tellwut today! You have nothing to lose and only $ to gain! See ya there!
***PLEASE NOTE: Edited 12/09/12 to show the $10 Walmart gift card is no longer being offered. :( We can still redeem for the $25 Walmart gift card, which is what I started doing already anyway, but liked having the $10 as an option! Hope they change it back! :)
