I have finally realized that Rakuten Insights is nothing but a data-harvesting scam.
I had accumulated a sufficient number of points after a couple of weeks, and I had hit a redemption threshold. I was sitting on around 600-700 points, and my gift cards were supposed to be dispatched on 15-04-2026. Unfortunately, on the day before my reward period, Rakuten suspended my account with no reason at all.
Here is how their fraud works:
Payout Scam: They offer extremely poor payouts for boring surveys that take forever to complete. Once you accumulate enough to get paid out, you have to wait 15 days.
The Last-Minute Ban: They allow you access for almost the entire period before the gift card is due. But then they ban your account from accessing the survey in the last 24 hours.
Data Scam: They are definitely selling our private data to large companies and earning huge profits. However, they act like robbers when it comes to compensating us.
Zero-Point Scams: It happened to me many times where I had to complete an entire survey but was given 0 points right at the end.
My recommendation: Don’t even think of wasting one minute on this scam website. They don’t care whether you are giving high-quality data or not. If you start earning, they will snatch your account.
Rakuten Insights, shame on you guys. Pure scams. Avoid them at all costs.

I am writing this to warn every user: do not trust Rakuten Insight. I have been a member for over a year giving them good data. When I earned a lot of money they showed their true face.Here is my experience with this company:* They Stole My Earned Money: I had asked for a payout. Of paying me they blocked the reward section and took my money.* Zero Support: I sent emails about my missing payment. They did not respond. They ignored me because they already had my data for a year and did not want to pay.The Soft-Ban Scam: They do not delete your account. They just disable the "Redeem" option so you cannot get your money. It is a scam to trick users.The Truth, about Rakuten Insight: They take your information. When it is time to pay you they disappear. They took my time, data and rewards.I will not stop until this company, Rakuten Insight is exposed. They are data thieves.
It looks like fake as after earning 280 points it is telling the "Suspect unnatural behaviour" during redemption time. It looks fake. The app just use me free to do survey and make profit without giving me anything. Very dissatisfied. I wasted more than 1 hour per day to earn money. Total wasted. 🤬🤬🤬🤬
They don't pay up. I got an initial payout - then tried to save money for a year $60 and cash out - they didn't pay up. I had to send them an email and they wrote back that I violated a policy - one of the policies is they can just choose to not pay you. The text in the email said - "Please note that Rakuten Insight is not obligated to disclose which prohibited act(s) you were found to have engaged in." If you do use them - be sure to cash out with small increments - do not hold money there and expect to be paid.
Rakuten Insight isn't a site I'd recommend at all. There are better options out there. I was a member of Rakuten Insights for years. Time spent there in 4 months might earn a $5 gc. Recently I went to cash out and I had to write them to find out why I wasn't getting my reward. I was told that I'd violated some term and they didn't have to tell me which one. Sound scamish yet? I did another inquiry quoting their Section 4 of their own terms that states they will notify of changes (in short version). They violate their own terms. I asked for my $5 that I'm owed since it had cashed out before the account was frozen and said I'd be fine to leave once the $ cleared. I haven't gotten a reply yet but I don't really expect I'll be seeing that $5 anytime soon. My advice? I wouldn't bother with this one. If Rakuten Insights will refuse to pay me as they have others here too, then please don't be the next one they 'decide not to pay'. If you notice there is a pattern, with a lot of us this happens once we claim a reward. If I could rate them a zero I would. Be careful of this site. It reels you in with paying a bit at first and then can freeze your account or delete it at any time without a reason even if you've just worked hard and your 'reward' has been claimed.
