Using PollBag.com should be a comfortable, hassle-free experience. Hopefully, you will find answers to all of your questions below. If not, we encourage you to contact us with any queries, doubts, words of wisdom or stock tips you might have.
What is PollBag.com?
PollBag.com is the first searchable comprehensive database of user-created polls. Here you can browse through a variety of polls, participate in them, build your own polls from scratch and even share your polls with your friends and colleagues.
Are polls on PollBag restricted to any certain categories ?
No - that would be Not Cool. PollBag hosts polls in every imaginable category, from food to fashion, from sports to shopping! PollBag.com was founded to be completely user-driven, so you could find a poll about absolutely anything on our website. And if not, you could always create your own.
Very nice. How much?
PollBag is completely free to users. This means it costs you nothing to create a poll, and nothing to have people vote in your polls. Also, you can browse available polls for absolutely nothing, and post links to them on your webpages as well. Hooray!
What are the benefits of registering?
Even though you can browse through all public polls without registering, having an account is necessary to build a poll and to participate in public polls. Also, on registering, you'll be the first to know of our latest features as we continue developing the website.
What's all this stuff on your homepage?
Our homepage is populated with the latest and most exciting polls available at PollBag.com. You get a glimpse of the top polls, as sorted by the criteria of polls with the most participation, polls with the most views, polls with the most user discussion and polls with the highest overall rating
What all do I need to register with PollBag.com?
Not much really. Just a valid e-mail address, and you're all set to have your own account. Register here.
Is my private information safe? What do you do with it?
We only use your private information for the purpose of identification. PollBag will not sell or give away your information at all.

Help! I haven't received my Registration Activation e-mail?
If you have contacted us recently but have not yet received a reply, your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or e-mail client may be blocking e-mail from PollBag.com. If you suspect this is happening, please consult the help section of your e-mail program to see how to relax the settings that filter or block mail, or how to add PollBag.com to your "safe domains" list. Once you've established that you should be able to receive mail from us.
However, it could also be that our server is not the well-oiled machine it once was, and that it is taking a little time to process your registration. If you haven't received emails from us within two hours of filling the appropriate form, we urge you to contact us. We will work directly with you to fix the problem.

Will PollBag support rewards for participation in polls?
Not just yet. We're working on it though, we assure you. PollBag knows that there's nothing like browsing a website you like, AND getting rewards for it!
Are there different types of PollBag accounts?
Currently, in our beta release, we only have one type of PollBag account. As we continue to make PollBag a richer environment, we will be adding more user account types.
Where did PollBag come from?
We'd like to believe that PollBag is one of those simple, obvious ideas, which came from everything and everyone around us.
A bunch of Duke University graduates had some spare time before they started their full-time jobs and embarked upon manifesting the obvious.
