Updated

ySense is an online rewards website where members earn cash for taking paid surveys, completing offers and doing online tasks. It is part of the Prodege, LLC family of sites and describes itself as open to people looking to earn extra money from around the world.

Below is what the facts say, plus how PocketsFull compares as another way to earn rewards online.

What ySense is

ySense is run by Prodege, LLC, a California limited liability company. Its terms of use say Prodege owns and operates ySense, and the Android and iOS apps are published under the Prodege name. The customer-service address listed on the About page is in Manhattan Beach, California.

The site calls itself a global online community for people looking to earn extra money. No public list of supported or excluded countries was found, and the help center notes that surveys and offers are not always available to every member, since availability depends on the member's profile and country.

Facts checked on

How members earn on ySense

Members earn through paid surveys, cash offers and offer walls, and online tasks. The surveys page lists survey partners and daily survey routers that match members to available questionnaires.

  • A Daily Checklist bonus adds a percentage on top of that day's survey and offer earnings for members who complete at least 2 surveys or at least 2 offers that day (the exact percentage is not consistently published, so it is not stated here).
  • An affiliate program pays a sign-up commission for each referral who becomes active, an extra bonus once a referral reaches a certain amount in earnings, and a commission on referrals' surveys and offers.

ySense says no purchase is needed to earn, and balances and payments are tracked in US dollars.

How ySense pays and who can join

ySense lists PayPal, Payoneer, Skrill and gift cards as payout methods. Which gift card brands are offered, and in which countries, is not published on the pages checked.

The site states that a cashout link only appears once a member reaches the minimum amount set for their chosen payment processor, but that minimum amount itself is not shown on the public pages. ySense says cashouts are processed in order and can take up to 10 business days, with new accounts or a first cashout possibly delayed up to 15 business days. Members can cash out up to two times per day. For Payoneer, processing can reportedly take up to 3 working days once the account is linked.

The minimum age is 13 in the United States and 16 in other countries, though ySense notes this can vary by country, and anyone under 18 needs a parent or guardian's approval. Only one account per person is allowed, though each person in a household may register separately. Members in the USA and Canada must have their postal address verified before using electronic cashouts, and ySense may also ask for an identity check through its partner Persona. For PayPal specifically, the name and email on the ySense account must match the linked PayPal account, which must itself be linked to a confirmed bank account.

How PocketsFull differs

PocketsFull is also a rewards site: members take paid surveys, complete offers, and redeem rewards, and joining is free with no deposit required. Offers on PocketsFull often involve trying an app or a game and reaching the steps the offer lists, and some offers take between 7 and 30 days to confirm.

Rewards on PocketsFull are redeemed as gift cards sent to the member's registered email, and PocketsFull has an Android app on Google Play along with a website that works in a phone browser.

Frequently asked questions

Is ySense legit?

How does ySense work?

Members take paid surveys, complete cash offers, and do online tasks, earning balances tracked in US dollars that can later be cashed out through the method set in their profile.

ySense pays through PayPal, Payoneer, Skrill or gift cards once a member reaches the minimum amount set for their chosen processor, though that minimum is not published. Cashouts are processed in order and can take up to 10 business days, longer for new or first-time accounts.

Is ySense available in Nigeria?

ySense does not publish a list of supported or excluded countries, and availability of surveys and offers depends on the member's profile, so this cannot be confirmed either way from its public pages.

What are some alternatives or sites like ySense?

PocketsFull is one alternative: a rewards site with paid surveys, offers and gift card, PayPal and Litecoin redemptions. Other reward and task sites are also reviewed separately, so it is worth comparing a few before settling on one.
