NO CURRENT PRIZE DRAW SCHEDULED, NEW DRAW WILL BE ANNOUNCED IN NOV 2008: Opinion Matters does not have a current prize draw scheduled. A new prize draw will be announced during November 2008. Until the announcement of the next prize draw, any points earned as "Prize Points" will be held in members accounts until the next prize draw is announced. At any time, members may choose to exchange "Prize Points" for "Cash Points" (with the exception of "Prize Points" that have been used to "Double Up" - see below).

A. Points System
Opinion Matters runs a point system. Points are earned in the form of “Prize Points” or "Cash Points" by completing surveys. Each “Prize Point” gives one entry into the current cash prize draw.

“Prize Points” may be doubled. “Prize Points” that have been used to double cannot be used to double again. Points that have been used to double cannot be converted to “Cash Points” and cannot be redeemed for cash. Additional "Prize Points" gained by the double feature each gain one entry into the current cash prize draw.

If Opinion Matters is not running a current Prize Draw, "Prize Points " will count as entries into the next prize draw that is conducted.

“Prize Points” are used up in the current cash prize draw. After the draw period closes “Prize Points” will be reduced to zero and entered into the draw.

Opinion Matters may extend or shorten the the opening and closing dates of the prize draws. In these circumstances, Opinion Matters will attempt to notify members by email.

“Prize Points” can be converted into “Cash Points”. Each “Cash Point” is worth AU$0.10. The minimum amount to redeem is AU$20.00. A member needs to login to their account and access the points conversion page to perform this action. “Cash Points” do not expire as long as an individual remains a member of Opinion Matters. If membership ceases, “Cash Points” are voided. Once “Prize Points” are converted to “Cash Points” they cannot be converted back.

An Opinion Matters member can enter the double process through their account page. Up to 100 points may be doubled. A game with a 50% chance of winning is shown, if the game is won, the points that have been elected to play with are doubled. This game me be played up to five times. The double process may be opted out of after each game. Points that are doubled cannot be converted to cash.

If a member is suspected of dishonest or fraudulent behaviour, Opinion Matters maintains the right to terminate membership and any points earned, or to suspend a members account while investigation into fraudulent behaviour is carried out.
