Complete Your Profile

The Onboarding Flow

After creating your account, you'll walk through a 7-step onboarding process. This usually takes a few minutes and covers everything needed to unlock the full platform.

Step 1: Identity Verification

First, you'll verify your identity using your National Identification Number. You can use either your NIN (11-digit number) or vNIN (virtual NIN). This is handled through a secure third-party provider and ensures every user on the platform is a real, unique person.

Your NIN data is encrypted and handled securely. We only confirm your name and date of birth - no biometrics or address history is accessed.

Step 2: Personal Information

Provide your first name, last name, username, gender, and date of birth. Your name must match your NIN record for verification to succeed.

Step 3: Location

Select your region, state, and Local Government Area (LGA). This helps survey creators target respondents in specific locations.

Step 4: Socioeconomic Background

Share your education level, employment status, and income range. These are commonly used demographic filters for survey targeting.

Step 5: Personal Details

Provide your ethnicity, religion, marital status, and children status. These details help match you with surveys studying specific population segments.

Step 6: Lifestyle

Share your household size, work industries, and how you heard about Opinyze.

Step 7: You're All Set

Once everything is complete, you'll land on a confirmation screen and you're ready to start using the platform.

Why This Matters

Your profile directly impacts your experience on Opinyze:

• More survey matches. Creators target respondents by demographics. An incomplete profile means you'll miss surveys you'd otherwise qualify for.
• Higher earnings potential. Niche demographic groups are often in high demand, which means better-paying survey opportunities.
• Platform access. Identity verification is required to take surveys, vote in polls, and earn credits.
