Once you have reached the minimum number of points required (which you can see on your Account page) you may redeem your points for cash, gift certificates, or other rewards that we may offer. You can withdraw from the rewards program by no longer participating in YouGov surveys, and/or deleting your account (see the ‘Your rights’ section for more information).
