First let me explain. I'm very familiar with both programs, but I'm thinking of switching my primary program from Treasure Trooper to Cash Crate. The problem with this switch is that I have a HIGH ranked blog for Treasure Trooper and nearly 200 referrals so keep that in mind if you're really lobbying for Cash Crate. I also have another site:
http://stylinwithstreak.8k.com
That has some Treasure Trooper tutorial stuff on it that would have to be re-done to suit Cash Crate as well. I suppose I could leave the Treasure Trooper stuff and just ADD the Cash Crate stuff.
As far as I can still tell Treasure Trooper might be better in terms of sheer volume of offers and there forum members seem to be more helpful, but that referrals % over at Cash Crate certainly is enticing. Of course now Treasure Trooper has their over $500 program where they damn near give you a $50 Visa Gift card every month if you fall into that group.
For those of you that use one or the other, or both please explain to me why you do and considering what I have in place what I should do. Thanks for your advice in advance.

As a member of both, I feel your pain. I am a member of WAY too many gpt sites (if that's possible) and I do really love those two sites though. I also like Deal Barbie pays and cash duck, those are prob. my top favorite four, otherwise, I stick with the site that has the best contests that month, and do that. I saw you mention it in a post, and because I've been making good money lately, i've been wondering, how one goes about finding out if they will have to pay taxes on thier online earnings? (if you know?) Also, another note, if you feel you must choose, i would stick with treasure trooper, they have a LOT more offers, and it seems to me it's a much nicer site. The thing I love about both sites is that thier offers get approved fairly quickly. Treasure trooper does have a nice forum. SOrry if I didn't help much! (:
Good luck.

Melissa,
Thanks for your advice and I do I understand about spreading yourself thin. I think that some people try to elude the system and do that many different sites and do duplicate offers with different information. I hope they're all getting caught. I don't know for SURE how it works, but if you make over $600 dollars in a calendar year with a site I know you're SUPPOSED to submit the tax information form. I have spread it out enough that I should've had to do it for only Treasure Trooper. Best of luck to you!

Thank you for your kind wishes. I think that I MIGHT like Cash Crate better due to their incentive program, but it I would be hard pressed getting most of my active referrals away from Treasure Trooper and over to Cash Crate. Maybe I'll divvy them all up a little at each site so I don't have to submit a W-9 form on any of it ... LOL

May was my first full month working with GPTs. I tend to lean towards TreasureTrooper as it has a better flow to it I think. Since I don't have a lot of time available I haven't explore all the features of any of the sites I've signed up with.
My next task is to start getting referrals!

CashCrate is 100% better. I love their program. I wrote an extensive review about them on my blog here and include everything you could ever want to know- http://achieve-financial-independence.blogspot.com/

Why would you say they're 100% better? Both are 100% better than AC for me right now. I'm just curious as to why you think they're so head and shoulders above a program that has more offers, etc. Also, while Cash Crate has a better referrals program in terms of %, Treasure Trooper still has more people as a whole earning the $200+ checks, AND better forums. I'm just trying to stir the pot to see if I can get a little more out of you.
