I have been looking at ways to earn a few bucks online for awhile.
It is when I realized I spent a LOT of time playing (realistically) pointless little Facebook games (you know the ones!!). I spend a lot of time helping online period but thats for another blog and way to make income....the links show you what I mean.
And while they don't mind if we spend money on games, we can't make money online through them.
Its an exclusive club so to speak.
Lame I said (out loud too, lol)
Soooooo, the search began...
I knew people really did make money online receiving checks or PayPal transfers into their accounts when they hit their 'cap' (20$ or so, nice pocket-change at any rate).
So I looked at the options out there, tried a bunch out and this is what I found:
FIRST you will want to open a separate e-mail account to handle any advertising/ 'junk' mail.
Use this e-mail address to complete the offers.
Filling surveys
This is done for points which transfer into prizes or cash. sometimes for draws. Its all in the fine print.
Free offers
Just sign up, register, try their game, software, product and get paid or earn points. Sometimes you find great deals, sometimes its nothing you want to keep. That's okay, just uninstall after you earn your rewards and try something else!
Pay-for offers: Points earned for buying things or paying a small fee to try things you are interested in anyway (at a discount too, yeah!). Pay to get jokes or horoscopes sent to your phone is an example :). Easily cancelled if you don't like it or get annoyed (like me!).
All-in -One
For example, after I joined Treasure Trooper I got the game I wanted for 70% off at Big Fish Games and a cash reward added to my account along with a reward that can be used in the games they offer...I can't complain there! I am thinking of getting cheques and business cards from 2 different offers but only if I like what they got... of course.
Check the offer policies so you can cancel within their deadline if anything if it isn't your cup of tea, but give it a fair shot, they are paying to be seen by you after all (which is how you are able to get paid, easy enough to understand, especially after you do it awhile)
I will post a review of individual companies within the week hopefully since lots will be going on at home here with the kids down but I always try to make time :)
