Companies that pay to have you complete offers

I used to think that these companies were scams until I tried CashCrate and actually earned a check my first month. Now my May check is up to $51 + and only $2.90 is from offers I have completed. The rest is from referrals completing offers. I have found another one I am looking at seriously and plan to promote them both heavily. That one is called Treasure Troopers. How many of you have experience with these type of companies either good or bad?

Well, it depends how much value you place on your time. My experience is that you can earn some money with completing offers, surveys or via shadow shopping but that the payout per hour is pretty bad. Having that said, if you love these activities and don't really care about how much you make - go for it. You will definitely earn something. However, if you like/have to earn serious money and need a steady cash flow, look for a second job. You will find that your hourly pay is way better and more reliable than any 'complete offer' or 'complete survey' activity.

Yes but the price of gas eats into the profit from a part time job. If you can find actual work at home jobs which do exist that is a much better solution. Also some people make hundreds to thousands through getting referrals with these type of companies.

I have heard enough of all these from diffrent peopel although i haven't tried out anyone till now as i get to read confusing things from those readers or from people who work there as some used to say they have been paid and others would say they are all scams.So, instead of wasting my times in these just concentrated on mylot which is a very legit site for anyone who is willing to work without braking mylot rules over here.

I understand your confusion but I like to evaluate programs and report my findings. That is what I have done here.

Both are superb programs. I have been paid by both. There isn't one greater than the other. They are equally wonderful.

Hi keith. I am a member of both cashcrate and treasuretrooper. But I don't have referrals. Congratulations on your earnings. That's really a good amount especially because it's coming from your referrals! That's passive income. I received a check of $10 this month from cashcrate. So they do pay. Good luck to everyone!
