I joined One Day Rewards to test it and compared it to the hundreds of similar sites I have tested. It is legit and open in every country, but it now only has offer walls, only pays in crypto, and pays less than other sites for the same offers. Below is what I found, and which sites I recommend instead.

Legit, but low rewards and crypto payouts only
Open in every country with plenty of offers, but lower rewards than similar sites, no cash payouts and a hard-to-use website.

The short answer
One Day Rewards is not a scam. You can actually get paid to complete offers, and you can join no matter where you live.
But it now only offers offer walls and only pays in crypto. In my experience, it pays less for the same offers than other similar sites, and it is one of the least user-friendly sites I have tested. It is not worth your time if other sites are open to you.
- Free to join
- Available in all countries
- Plenty of paid offers on the offer walls
- Not very high rewards compared to similar sites
- Doesn’t offer cash rewards, only crypto
- Offer walls are the only way to earn
- Hard to navigate, and not mobile-optimized

Is One Day Rewards legit and safe?
One Day Rewards is legit, as you can actually get paid to complete offers. But it has both good and bad sides. Here is what you should know.
- Lower rewards for the same offers
You can find many of the same offers on similar sites like ySense, and there you often get higher rewards. So it takes a long time to earn a significant amount.
- Older reports of payout problems
In 2019 and 2020, readers wrote that One Day Rewards did not pay or paid less often, blocked people and removed payout options without notice. A reader in 2022 could not cash out. Another reader in 2020 was paid within about 6 hours.
- Read the conditions of every offer
Offers can be free trials, newsletters, apps or a service you buy. Always read the conditions so you know what you are saying yes to.
- No VPN
You are not allowed to use a VPN or hide your location. You will be banned if you try.
My takeOne Day Rewards is not a scam, as you can actually get paid to complete offers. This does, however, not mean it is worth your time. In my experience, it pays less for the same surveys and offers than other similar sites, and it is one of the least user-friendly sites I have tested. Some sites are easier to use and have more and better opportunities.
One Day Rewards pays less and only in crypto. The top sites in your country pay more, most of them in cash.

There is 1 way to earn: paid offers on offer walls. Tap it to read more.
Paid offers on offer wallsOnly way to earn
You find the offer walls in the main menu. Each offer wall gives you different offers, for example free trials, newsletter sign-ups, app downloads or buying a service.
Sometimes you find really good offers with great rewards. But many of them are on similar sites too, where you often get more for the same offer. Read whether paid offers are worth it before you start.
How much can you make?
It depends on how much time you put in. You will not run out of ways to earn, because there are a good number of paid offers at any time.
But many sites offer higher rewards for the same offers, so it takes quite a long time to earn a significant amount. That is why I would say its earning potential is very low.
How you get paid
| Method | Minimum |
|---|---|
| Cryptocurrencies | Depends on the reward you choose |
When I first tested One Day Rewards, you could get Amazon gift cards, cash through PayPal or Skrill, and Bitcoin. Now you can only redeem your points for crypto. The process is straightforward, but the options are limited.

Readers in 2019, 2020 and 2022 wrote that it did not pay, paid less often, blocked people or would not let them cash out.
Readers decided not to use it because it pays so little.
A reader in 2020 was paid within about 6 hours, but stopped because of many disqualifications.
A reader asked how the referral program works.
“I earned $2 from a few surveys but stopped because to even get there I got DQed maybe 7 times before it would actually let me complete a full survey. … Anyways, I was paid pretty quickly (6 or so hours)”
Mikael: I completely agree that there are many sites that are a lot better. That is also why I have only given One Day Rewards 2 stars.
“It has slowly gone down hill. It takes payment options down without notifying members.”
Mikael: Personally, also not a site I spend time on anymore as I think there are many sites with better options.
“I personally will not be using it since it pays out so little money. My time is worth much more.”
Mikael: One Day Rewards will also not be a site I will be spending more time on myself. There are so many other great sites that give better opportunities.

I cannot cash out my balance…
You need to contact their support about this.
The site is average at best. I earned $2 from a few surveys but stopped because to even get there I got DQed maybe 7 times before it would actually let me complete a full survey. Maybe it’s my demographic. Anyways, I was paid pretty quickly (6 or so hours), but will probably not spend any more time on this site, since the larger platforms offer higher paying surveys and have exclusive panels that don’t disqualify you nearly as much
I completely agree that there are many sites that are a lot better. That is also why I have only given One Day Rewards 2 stars.
Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences.
One Day Rewards owner Kelvin Patton site is gone (It says the site is expired). He owes thousands of people money. I am one of those people. It has slowly gone down hill. It takes payment options down without notifying members. He stopped paying 3x a day like he used to. You are lucky if he pays once a day. I would not recommend joining
When I check it is still online – so maybe it was a temporary technical error?
Anyway, thanks for sharing your experiences about One Day Rewards for the rest of us. Personally, also not a site I spend time on anymore as I think there are many sites with better options.
This website admin is not friendly and racism they said me and my race can burn in hell.They cheat many people do not pay and blocked people without unreasonable excuse.Do not waste the time to this website if u not trust me I got evidence screenshots proofs.Please kindly send me the request.
Very sorry to hear that Jan.
Sounds like an unpleasant experience.
Thanks for sharing your experience with One Day Rewards with the rest of us.

Hello
did you have any questions Badare?
thank
you are welcome
Hi Mikael,
Thanks for taking the time to review One Day Rewards very well and for sharing your findings. I wonder after earning the “small pay outs” how reliable is the process to get the actual money in a form that you can actually spend anywhere.
Speaking from past experience with another company, I discovered that I needed to jump through additional hurdles in order to get the small amount of money I had earned. As I was not earning as much money as I was expecting to (based on their sales information), I just never bothered.
That was a waste of my money, time and effort at my end that could have been better spent. I just put it down to experience at this point.
Peace,
David
Hi David,
I do not know how fast the processing of payments are at One Day Rewards – after testing it and seeing the opportunities I decided it was a site I did not want to spend any more time on.
As for other survey and get-paid-to sites, some of them make it very easy to get your cash. On some of the fastest paying survey sites, I have for example received my money only a few hours after requesting it, and the request itself took a few second to do.
So there are luckily many sites that make it very easy to get your rewards.
Mikael
Cheers for the review of this one! Glad I read this before i started haha. I always wonder, because when you search for ways to earn money, these sites always come up. But is any of these sites worth my time? Am I ever going to get a lot of money from this?
Hi Eelco,
If you join the top paying survey sites in your country, it can definitely be a way to make some extra money.
If you are looking to make a full-time income, this will not happen with survey and get-paid-to sites. But they are free, and you can start earning from day one, so if you join the legit ones, it can be great depending on your expectations and goal.
Mikael
Hello and thank you for the detailed review of One Day Rewards!
I really don’t get if people are really making income with surveys. I mean, how many hours per day you need to work efficiently in order to make a full income that is enough to cover the bills? Is it possible with this kind of work?
Also, what I don’t like is that you have to pay in order to do a job that requires doing tasks. It makes me feel like the only one benefiting from this is the owner of this platform. Don’t you think so? What’s your opinion on this.
Thanks!
Amjad
Hi Amjad,
You can definitely make real money on paid survey sites. But you will not be able to make a living from it. If this is your goal, it is not for you.
It is however a great and easy way to make some extra money on the side and have your opinion heard at the same time. It depends on your reasons to start taking surveys. People that try to make a living from ti will be disappointed, whereas people that are just interested in a way to make some extra money on the side while sharing their opinion will find it is a great way.
One Day Rewards is a bit unusual in the sense that it charges people to upgrade their membership. Usually survey and get-paid-to sites will never charge you anything.
Of course the sites in general also have to make money to be able to operate, but they usually do this without charging people a fee for memberships, and then I think it is great since it benefits both the site owners and the people participating.
Mikael
I’m not really big on these types of sites but usually if they have a referral program or affiliate program, you can earn a lot more than doing the actual surveys. I see One Day Rewards has a referral program which is a plus. Can you touch a little on how that works?
Hi Jay,
Yes, One Day Rewards has a referral program. If you invite people to join, you will earn 10% commission on level 1 referrals, and 5% on level 2.
Personally I do however only refer people to panels that I think are truly worth the time, so to me it does not matter if One Day Rewards has a referral program, as I am not planning to recommend it or invite people to join it.
Mikael
It’s great to see review on sites like these, that offer money for ads or surveys, because a lot small sites that offer this are scams and reviews like the one made by you can help people find sites that actually work.
It’s good that someone goes and explains actually pros and cons of such sites, as more often then not sites promise things that are simply not true to gain more traffic and reviews are the thing that clear up what is just fake advertisement and what is not.
Thanks for the feedback and for sharing your thoughts Richards. Glad to hear you found the info useful.
Mikael
thanks for reviewing one day rewards. I personally will not be using it since it pays out so little money. My time is worth much more. Nice to know though it is not a scam as there are many out there. You have done great work in your review. Please keep it up by exploring more potential scams. You will be saving many people their time and money!
Thanks and have a great day!
Proud papa of two!
Jody
Thanks for the feedback Jody – I appreciate it.
One Day Rewards will also not be a site I will be spending more time on myself. There are so many other great sites that give better opportunities.
Great day to you too.
Mikael
Great honest review – thanks.I’ve always wondered about these review sites and as much as I need the money I do value my time and have heard that on a 4 to hour basis many of these surveys just aren’t worth it.
I appreciate the list of survey providers in my country (New Zealand) and will take a look. Be great to earn a few dollars in my spare time as long as it is worth it.
One day rewards, the one you’ve reviewed here, doesn’t sound like my thing.
Thanks once again.
Thanks for your comment Lawrence.
Hope you will like my recommended sites in NZ. I think it is a good choice not to invest time on One Day rewards, if you just want to join a few survey sites to earn a bit extra.
The top recommended on the list are in my experience worth it, and can be a fun way to earn a bit extra. Just remember that it is not a way to make a living, but something that should be done to earn a bit extra on the side. And in my opinion it is also a great opportunity to have your opinion heard on important topics.
Mikael
