Spotlight On: AdPaid

AdPaid, which has long been a favorite site of mine and has some of the nicest admins around (one of which unfortunately recently retired), has been going through some server issues in recent months but that appears to have been resolved now and the site is back up and running as usual. That's great, because they have always been reliable and always paid fast, with a super low $3 minimum cashout.

It's also been one of my favorites because for many years they have always had a lot of regular paid emails sent to members. Apparently the paid email system is still being worked on, but one of the admins recently posted that it should be back up and running very soon, so that's good news as well.

Here's the basic 411 on AdPaid:

• It's been online and paying since May 2004
• $3 minimum cashout ($5 for gift certificates)
• Payment via PayPal, or Amazon/BestBuy/Wal-Mart gift certificates within 7 days
• PTC, PTS, paid surveys, & paid e-mails
• 6 referral levels
• Points converted to cash monthly
• Upgrade to earn more
• Members welcome from these countries/territories:  Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Guam, Guernsey, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Korea, Luxembourg, Maldives, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Puerto Rico, South Korea, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States, US Virgin Islands

Spotlight On: ClixSense

So I have basically just fallen in love with old tried-and-true ClixSense lately. ClixSense has not only remained one of the most active sites out there (and more active than ever lately, it seems), but they have made so many awesome improvements and additions to the site over the last couple of years that it's become unbelievably easy to get to cashout minimum, and quickly.

I admittedly spent years being semi-ambivalent about the site, and even quite frustrated with it on occasion. For several years, it took so long to reach cashout, plus they onIy paid once a month, and even as an upgraded Premium member, it was tough to get to cashout level.

Then I was especially annoyed when they started deactivating inactive accounts - not hard to reactivate, but during the long period that I wasn't very active anywhere, I found myself marked inactive again and again and it was just a pain in the neck.

But now I'm all about how great ClixSense is these days. It's awesome now! I've even been paid twice in the last two and a half weeks (probably could have been paid three times in two weeks if I'd really wanted to, but I let one payment opportunity slip past me and requested it a few days later).

One of the biggest improvements they made a while back was lowering their cashout level to both standard (free) and Premium members, and increasing the frequency of payments.

In my early years doing this stuff, the site had a $20 cashout and you could only get paid monthly by check, plus they took a pretty big fee out of payments (something like $2, if I recall correctly), so it took a really long time to get to cashout level and then you had that huge fee taken out, which was really frustrating. For a long time, it ranked about 3rd or 4th place with me among its peers because of all that.

Then they lowered cashout quite a bit, and then lowered it again quite a bit MORE, to where cashout minimum is now only $8 for standard (free) members and $6 for Premium members, AND started paying lots more often, now paying twice weekly (on Mondays and Fridays) via PayPal, Payza, or Liberty Reserve. They still have a check option once a month ($10 minimum, plus they do still take out a $1.50 fee for check payments), but honestly, why bother waiting if you don't have to?

They also now only take out a relatively small fee for online payments (1% to 2.5%, depending on your chosen payment method) now, so that's great too. It's nowhere near painful to cashout like it once was, seeing all those dollars taken out of smallish checks.

All of these awesome improvements with their payment system has really upped ClixSense in my opinion, and not only that, they have made so many great additions to the site and improvements with ways to earn, it's really gotten pretty easy to be able to cash out at least weekly, if not twice a week!

Look for the Daily Checklist Bonus - that alone can get you to cashout level a lot quicker than normal, and really doesn't take a lot of time to do daily.

Besides always having PTC ads (more daily if you're upgraded), there's a rather large amount of paid offers available as well as the addition of Tasks - some of which I rarely have interest in but some of which I generally make a point of doing several daily, and those Task payments can really add up.

Then there's the ClixGrid, where you can take your chances and win up to $5 daily. And tons of other stuff too. The site is just loaded with earning activities these days!

The Premium upgrade has increased from what it once was (though pretty much every site's upgrade has increased, for the most part) to $17 yearly, but I still recommend it. The upgrade is still well worth it and really does give you a boost to getting to cashout level much more quickly.

Here's the basic stats on ClixSense, to reiterate:

• $8 minimum cashout for Standard (free) members, $6 for Premium (upgraded) members
• Cashout $10 if by check (Canada/US/Mexico) or $100 (rest of world), $15 if by Liberty Reserve
• Payment via PayPal, Payza (formerly AlertPay), Liberty Reserve, or check (fees apply to all payments)
• Payments twice weekly on Mondays & Fridays except for check payments (once monthly)
• Pays $0.001 or more per ad viewed, up to $0.02
• Easy daily bonus available via ads, ClixGrid, forum reading, and tasks and/or offers
• Varying referral levels & options dependent on membership type/type of ad viewed by referrals
• Lots of offers as well, and other ways to earn
• Premium upgraded members receive referral commissions on 8 levels
• Members welcome from all countries except: Afghanistan, Algeria, Antarctica, China, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Nepal, North Korea, Niger, Sri Lanka, Vietnam

In any case, all the great improvements to ClixSense over the last year or two have just really impressed me and been very lucrative lately, and I am in the process right now of having earned more there in just the last couple of months than I did in my first four years as a member thanks to all these neat improvements and additions.

You're probably already a member (the site has thousands of members), but if you're not? Do yourself a favor and check out ClixSense today!

Spotlight On: Bank Roll Bucks

So for the first time in a long time, I have a "new" GPT site to add... although it's not really new, and I'm so very, very excited to make this post! I've been meaning to actually for over a year now, but being so swamped the last couple of years kept me from re-signing up and being able to post this.

Anyway, without further ado, I'm so very, very pleased to be able to recommend to you again what has been my all-time favorite GPT site for years, Bank Roll Bucks, which reopened back in 2011 after the admin took some time off from the GPT world with a new baby.

Bank Roll Bucks is not only a favorite because it's such a great site with such a terrific admin - it also is one of my top paying sites of all time. Between April of 2008 and September of 2009, I earned and was paid over $100 total from Bank Roll Bucks.

One of the reasons it is easy to increase your balance on the site is because there are not only always lots of offers, but the site admin has always been vigilant about making sure the offers at Bank Roll Bucks are active and good ones, and weeding out any bad/poor ones. New offers are added to the site daily.

In addition, there's plenty more to do at Bank Roll Bucks, with 20+ daily surveys available (survey earnings on GPT sites can really add up); daily, weekly, and yearly promos, and much more. There are also lots of fun games available, including Slots, Bingo, Pick a Pair (always been my favorite), and Spin A Rama. There are also PTC (paid to click) ads on the site.

Bank Roll Bucks has a minimum cashout of $1, and payments are made via PayPal, Amazon gift certificate, or check. Payments are made daily except for checks, which are mailed weekly on Fridays. There are three referral levels (25%, 5%, and 1%).

In addition, there are some really cool bonuses! You earn a free bonus when any of your referrals complete their first offer, and a $1 bonus for every 25 offers you complete.

Members are welcome at Bank Roll Bucks from these countries: the US, the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, France, and Germany.

And probably the most important of all, Bank Roll Bucks is run by an absolutely trustworthy and wonderful admin who has been well-known, active, and helpful in the GPT community for a long, long time, and who is always quickly and easily available to the site's membership. I just could never say enough good about Jennifer, and she truly cares about the integrity of the site, her members, and the GPT community in general. Truly a topnotch GPT admin!

And in fact I have said tons good about her and Bank Roll Bucks in the past - you can find those old posts (all 100% positive) in the closed site section if you want to know more.

In short, when it comes to Bank Roll Bucks, you just can't go wrong - always my absolute highest recommendation ever when it comes to Get Paid To sites!

Not a member yet? By all means, head over there right away and join Bank Roll Bucks today!

PaidTheFastest

PaidTheFastest is another site I've had on the list to review for a while and just hadn't gotten around to yet.

PaidTheFastest is basically a general GPT but has quite a different look and feel to it. They have fairly liberal use of promo codes as well as jackpots and many other ways to earn.

UPDATED 03/02/2013: Cashout is a $1 minimum and paid instantly (within 24 hours) via PayPal. Payment is now also available by Amazon gift certificate at $5, paid weekly. There is one referral level of 20%.

UPDATED 03/04/2013: It appears that PaidTheFastest is now open to some other countries besides the US, though I'm not sure which ones, probably Canada, UK, Australia - not sure where else. You can try & register & see if yours is one of them.

BigCrumbs

I can't imagine too many people haven't heard about BigCrumbs, and I've been a member for a long time but for whatever reason (disorganization, lack of sleep, etc.) I just never got around to posting about it.

BigCrumbs is a site where you can earn cash back for shopping at tons of major, well-known retailers online. You earn cash back on both everything you buy AND everything your referrals buy via BigCrumbs. This includes at eBay as well as many other major retailers like Target, The Gap, Best Buy, Circuit City, Old Navy, and more.

Payment is via PayPal on or about the 15th of every month (payment one month in arrears).

Members are welcome from the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, and Australia, but they're working to bring more countries on. Check out BigCrumbs today!

CashPirate

CashPirate is a new site that opened up earlier this month that got such a good thumbs up recommendation from a favorite GPT blogger, I decided to check it out myself. First off, it's a really nice site graphically and technically and very different from what you're used to seeing around. The site at this time is pretty much all offers & contests, for the most part.

UPDATE 03/02/2013: CashPirate now has instant PayPal payments available with a $1 minimum, Amazon gift certificate paid weekly with a $1 minimum, or withdraw by eBay or Wal-mart GC (both available daily) with a minimum $10 withdrawal. Referral earnings continue to be one level at 20%, and CashPirate currently offers a $0.10 signup bonus.

UPDATE 03/04/2013: It appears that CashPirate is indeed open to some other countries besides the US; it appears it is open to Canada, UK, Australia, but I'm not sure whether there are others. You can try & register & see if yours is one of them.

In any case, it's kinda neat and something different, and you can't much beat instant PayPal payments, and they've already paid someone I know so looking forward to working with this one some in the future.

Join CashPirate and check out this brand new site today!

EarnEasyCash

The first thing I noticed about EarnEasyCash - whoa, there are always a LOT of ads! I don't think I've been there yet when there haven't been 80 or more PTC ads available.

GPT site offers are so time consuming (and I seem to be having terrible luck with approvals lately), and I'm very happy with the ones I'm entrenched at and not really looking at adding new ones to my daily activities right now, so I've been looking more at PTC/PTRs lately. I have been following in the footsteps of some of my fellow GPT/PTC bloggers who have spent a lot more time on PTC sites in general than I have and joining some of the ones they have had good luck with and been paid by, this was another one of those.

You can earn up to $0.05 per ad here - most are in the $0.0001 to $0.01 range - and there are random $0.05 ads daily. There is one 20% referral level here and there are also weekly referral contests.

UPDATED 03/02/2013: EarnEasyCash now has a minimum cashout of $0.90 via PayPal and $1.01 via Payza (no minimum cashout for premium members). As usual with most PTC/PTRs, you can upgrade to earn more. There is one referral level available at 20% payout. The site states payments are usually received within 72 hours of request.

EarnEasyCash is open to international members and has also been awarded the Gold Seal of Approval from BeenPaid.com - check it out today!

DonkeyMails

Today's find is a good one! DonkeyMails has a lot of the things I like best in a "get paid to" site because it has many of the laziest & easiest ways to rack up some cash - LOTS of paid emails and paid to click options - which is the way I like it best, lazy & easy! This site also has a really good reputation in the online community as one with an attentive owner & good payment history, so more pluses there!

UPDATED 03/02/2013: Minimum cashout is small - $1 minimum for PayPal and Payza, $0.01 for Liberty Reserve. You can request payout whenever and they usually pay about once a week, but definitely within 30 days. DonkeyMails has five referral levels (5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, & 1%).

Members are accepted from these countries: AUSTRALIA, AUSTRIA, BELGIUM, CANADA, DENMARK, FINLAND, FRANCE, GERMANY, GREAT BRITAIN, GREECE, ICELAND, IRELAND, ITALY, NETHERLANDS, NEW ZEALAND, NORWAY, PORTUGAL, SOUTH KOREA, SPAIN, SWEDEN, SWITZERLAND, UNITED KINGDOM, UNITED STATES.

I joined last week and already have gotten bunches and bunches of paid emails, and there always seem to be new paid to click opportunities on site as well, so I am liking this one a lot! Hope you will too! Join DonkeyMails today!

No-Minimum.com

No-Minimum.com is another one that has impressed me and I've grown to like a lot in a very short time. It's also another one that has had a lot of good feedback from members about good payment history. Low minimum payouts, fast payouts, & word that a place has a good history of paying members impresses me a lot!

UPDATED 03/02/2013: There is an only $1 minimum payout via PayPal, Payza, and Liberty Reserve, with payments usually made weekly. You can request payment anytime - payment will be made within 30 days, but the site states that under normal circumstances payment are made once a week.

They also have lots of pay to click ads and other opportunities to make cash other ways besides doing just offers, and they have some games as well. I'm also getting a lot of paid emails from them already. And, they accept all international members! Six referral levels here (5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1%, & 1%).

So what have you got to lose? Go make some money at No-Minimum.com!

If I get a chance to this weekend, I will update on my current earnings. If not, look for that soon, and in any case, I'll be back on Monday with more new sites you can scrounge up a little extra cash on!

Have a great weekend!

AdPaid

As I've mentioned many times before, I have a particular affinity for the sites that offer paid emails and paid to click ads 'cos for someone who is into doing this the laziest and easiest ways possible (or in my case, just don't have a ton of extra spare time), those are the easiest ways to rack up a little spare change daily just by reading a few paid mails and reviewing a few ads every day for a little while. Granted, it takes a little longer for the pay to add up in those cases as opposed to paid offers and such, but it's very little work and every cent adds up and counts anyway, so what the heck, right?

So the other day I came across AdPaid, after having seen some very positive remarks about their payment history and the site in general from one of their members, and immediately I liked it. The site's laid out very well, information is easy understand - lots of things that are always big pluses about paid to do stuff sites. They also have paid to click, paid offers, and other options to wrangle up some dough. Also, within a few hours, I had already gotten several paid emails, so that impressed me further.

Another big plus for AdPaid - once you reach the minimum ($3) or more for cashout ($5 for gift certificates), you can request payment anytime and they pay within at least seven days... although they also say on the site that in most circumstances, it's within 48 hours. Excellent!

UPDATED 03/02/2013: Payment is through PayPal (e-Gold is no longer an option), or they also offer Amazon, Wal-Mart, and Best Buy gift certificates. AdPaid is open to members in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and the United States.

More on AdPaid (updated info 06/13/2009):

• 6 referral levels
• Points are converted to cash monthly
• Awarded the Diamond Seal of Approval from BeenPaid.com
• Online and paying since May 2004

AdPaid is fabulous and as of this update (06/13/2009), I have been paid twice by this site and it is an ongoing favorite. If you're not already a member, join AdPaid today!

ClixSense

On ClixSense, you basically get paid to view 30-second  (or less) ads and must go to the site to view them. You can rack up a minimal amount, or there are many opportunities to increase your earnings.

UPDATED INFO 03/03/2013: Minimum cashout at ClixSense is now $8 for Standard members and $6 for Premium (upgraded) members if by PayPal or Payza, and payments are now made twice weekly, on Mondays and Fridays (there is a 2% fee for PayPal payments and a similar fee for Payza). Payment is also available Liberty Reserve, but with a $50 minimum cashout and 1% fee; these are also made twice weekly on Mondays and Fridays. Payment by check is still available with payments made monthly (first Monday of every month); $10 minimum (+$1.50 fee) for check payments to the US, Canada and Mexico; $100 (+$2 fee) for check payments to anywhere else in the world.

Also, within the last year or so ClixSense has instituted a deactivation process for inactive accounts. It doesn't appear that they are deleting inactive accounts totally, and it's easy to reactivate your account once marked inactive, but I would recommend logging in at least once a month to keep active.

In addition, I would be remiss in not mentioning in this update how much ClixSense has expanded their site in recent years to give you more ways to earn via the ClixGrid game, tasks, more offers, and much more. It is very easy to meet the minimum requirements on the Daily Checklist Bonus each day (look for it on the right hand side of your account page when logged into the site), and especially now since the minimum cashout has been lowered over the last couple of years, those daily bonuses can really add up to quick cashouts!

UPDATED INFO 06/24/2012: You earn $0.001 and up to $0.02 per ad viewed at ClixSense; the referral structure has changed quite a bit over the last 3+ years, but in general, as well as getting paid per referral click, there are referral signup commissions (for Premium members only) and referral upgrade commissions for both Standard and Premium members. Premium members get paid through eight tiers for referrals who also upgrade; Standard members get paid for only one tier (direct referrals who upgrade). Upgrade to Premium status is $17 a year, but you generally get a lot more ads than a Standard member and an opportunity to make more on referrals, as well as other benefits. Highly recommend this upgrade, you make lots more and faster that way!


UPDATE: ClixSense rocks - and the yearly upgrade is totally worth it. See all my later posts about the ClixSense upgrade in the "Where It Pays to Upgrade" section of the site.
