Title: Question about the Forum Bonus
Post by: CJ555 on April 26, 2019, 09:15:20 am
I am not new to the site but decided to try the Forum Bonus for a few extra bucks.

I noticed it says " You must make the posts during a calendar month as measured by FusionCash's official time (located in the top right of each page)."

Can someone explain this "calendar month"? I am assuming it means I need 30 postings in April,..30 in May,..etc etc.
But I am not sure, and I don't see the FC "official time" located on the top right of any page?!!


Sorry if this is a stupid question but I can't figure this one out!  :'(

I do not see  the FC official time on my page either.  Just remember that FC is on PS time, or west coast time, so it is earlier there than most places.

30 in a month either pacific or east coast. So make the last one before the last day of a month to top 30.

I always assumed it meant the entire month starting on the 1st and ending on the 30th or 31st.  So I always have 30 or more a day or so before the end of the month.  Don't forget to submit the  Forum Posting Bonus form. (I almost did once  :o )

Yes, got mine today for March too! Nice surprise!  I'm pretty sure it's just within a month's time, so you have anywhere from 28 days to 31 days to do your 30 posts. And yes, be sure to use the form for it, just click on the Paid to Post tab, then click where it has the form highlighted. Choose your 3 posts wisely, none from the contests page. Good luck!

Thanks for the responses. And I will do more research,...but another quick question before I do,....

What do you mean by "choose your 3 posts wisely"? Do you need 30 posts but need to make 3 of the 30 "your best"
 post?!! If so what makes 1 better than the other?!!!

They want helpful posts, not just completed surveys.  Also:

Under Earn Cash, more, is another bonus for receiving your payment, might have to resize the proof of payment:
I scanned it into Windows photo gallery, opened it, clicked edit at the top, chose  resize 
smaller: 640  and save. then under EARN, more, I filled in the form and chose the file, after resizing to 640 it took

You are right. In order to get the bonus, you need at least 30 posts each month. I have never really seen the official time on any of the pages, but it looks like they operate on west coast time.

Yes it appears to be West coast  time, so if you are on the East coast it should safely get in under the time een if you have to work on it late!

Yep,...east coast (Philly area) here! I have 28 valid posts so far and a (hopefully) a few hours left,...so we will see if this counts as 29?!! LOL   

Thanks to everyone for the responses. I was just concerned maybe they had a funny FC fiscal month where it starts every 5th of the month or whatever!!!

personally I would not stress too much over choosing your 3 posts to submit, as long as they are complete sentences and not assinine.

I didn't not get mine because i was not aware that you weren't suppose to post in the off topic subforums or contests and promotions subforums.  I thought all that counts was you had to have 30 forum postings for the month total.

Right, those do not count towards the bonus.  I always do a few extra just in case and it is much easier if you do a few each day.

I think it means from the 1st day of the month to the last day of the month and here is were you can submit your forum for the bonus https://www.fusioncash.net/forumbonus.php, Hope this helps!  :)

So sorry freedom, I didn't know that either for quite awhile, but somewhere it does say it. They still count for your 30 posts I believe but you can't use them for one of your 3 to fill in. Good luck this month!

I think it means the entire month starting on the 1st of the month and ending on the last day of the month.  You have to have 30 posts during this time.  I usually try to have all my posts done by the 25th of the month and go ahead and submit them.  That way if something comes up I know that it has been done.

What I do is, I try to post once or twice a day starting from the first of each month

I believe you are referring to the payment picture bonus, not the forum bonus. And I think you meant "they want helpful posts, not just a word or 2." Surveys have nothing to do with it. :)

OK so the questions you just asked would be a good post to submit. Just about any of them that are NOT in contests/promos, and have a complete sentence that is either helpful or asking for help. You get to choose the 3 you want. Just make sure to also make sure they are dated in the correct month and in one of the discussion boards that isn't allowed. (I'm not sure about the debate and discuss one) So if you just submit 3 from the main topics (Support, FusionCash, Offers, etc.) you should be fine. Also, you do not have to submit them before, during, or after a certain month. What I mean is, like for May, you can submit any time before the end of June (maybe even later) as long as you actually did 30 posts in May. But it's best to submit them as soon as possible because you can only do 2 months at a time and you'll get your $3 sooner. If I have managed to confuse you even more, haha, just click on the Paid to Post tab above, read that top post, then click where it says "form" and maybe those posts will be more helpful. Once you get it down, it'll be a piece of cake!!

Yep me too and could really use it right now as I'm hustling to make cash out this month! I didn't cash out last month so I'm so mad at myself for not working hard enough to get there sooner, as I almost always cash out every other month! 7 days to go and I think I might just barely make it :)

Here's a good question about the length of time the 3.00 forum posting bonus is available to claim from the archives:

Quote from: swogden on November 21, 2011, 09:43:23 am

I usually wait until the 2nd to the last day of the month to make the request -- gives me more posts to choose from -- haven't forgotten to request the bonus yet.   But if you do forget, you can always make a request for last month in the current month too.  Credits are issued at the end of the month FOLLOWING the month you made the request.

This is very helpful. I didn't know you could request credit for the month prior.
How far back can you request it though?

when you request the bonus it wants you to pick 3 posts for them to look at.... it can be any 3 but I usually pick the best ones
