What OpinionWorld is
OpinionWorld is an online market-research panel operated by Dynata, LLC, together with its parent, subsidiary, and affiliated companies, including Dynata Global UK Limited. The terms describe it as a market research access panel owned and operated by Dynata.

How members earn on OpinionWorld
Members earn points, which the terms call Panel Currency, by taking part in several types of research activity.
- Online surveys
- Product tests, meaning trying products before they reach the market
- Watching and reviewing adverts
- Quick polls
- Real-world missions in the member's local area
The terms say points expire one year after they are added to the account, unless forfeited earlier, and that points have no monetary value, are not the member's property, and cannot be transferred or sold.
How it pays and who can join
The home page says points can be exchanged for gift cards, and also names PayPal credit and entertainment packages. The US site's footer carries an Amazon.com gift card notice, and the Australian site mentions a Flexi eGift Card, but the actual reward catalogue is shown only to logged-in members and differs by country, so which gift card brands are available on your site is not published.
The terms on all twelve country sites state that the minimum redemption threshold is the equivalent of fifty US dollars in points, unless a lower redemption option is available, and that Dynata may offer rewards with lower thresholds without notice. How long a reward takes to arrive after redemption is not published.
Joining is free with an email address, and the minimum age is set per country in the terms: for example 17 in the United States, 16 in the United Kingdom and Ireland, 18 in Australia, and 19 in Canada, among other ages listed per site. Members must live in the country of the site they join, and the terms say members may be asked to verify their identity through a third-party provider, including when redeeming rewards.

How PocketsFull differs
PocketsFull is a rewards site where members take paid surveys, complete offers such as game and app offers, and collect rewards they can redeem. Joining and using it is free, and it never asks for a deposit or a payment.
Surveys on PocketsFull come from survey providers looking for specific profiles, so being screened out before the end happens to everyone and is not a sign of anything wrong. Keeping a profile complete and accurate helps with being matched to more surveys.
Offers are tasks from partners, such as trying an app or a game and reaching the steps the offer lists, or signing up for a service. Some offers take between 7 and 30 days to confirm, and each offer states its own confirmation time.
PocketsFull also has a separate free-games page with browser games that need no download and no sign-up. Those games are for fun and do not pay rewards.
How PocketsFull pays
On PocketsFull, the redeem screen shows gift cards, PayPal, and Litecoin, with the local gift card brands shown first. Which gift cards appear depends on the member's country, since the catalogue is built around local brands.
A redeemed gift card is sent to the member's registered email address. PocketsFull does not list PayPal credit, entertainment packages, or any other payment app as payout options; only the methods shown on the redeem screen apply.
