 :heart:  :heart:  :heart:  :heart:  :heart: February is Heart month WEAR RED!!

This site gave/gives you .03 for checking in each day! That said,  I (a senior 65+) took 5 months to make enough to cash out! Now, do I want to invest the time till April and maybe give them 10.00 or so when they shut down?  What would you do?


If all you do is the 3 cents then yeah it will take forever. There for a while I cashed out every month. I am trying to get enough to make cashout by the end of the month so I get paid March 1.

I have spoke to them via email and there will be no partial payout. If you do not make the $20 threshold you won't get whatever funds are in your account.  As they told me you have plenty of time to earn $20. lol

I don't lack much.  I only have to earn 17 cents a day for the rest of the month and I will make it.  You have to do more than the daily check in.  It is up to you if you want to try to make it.  If you do not think you can I would concentrate on something else.  But if you think there is a chance I would go for it.

I stopped earning with them a while back and I hope I am wrong but I anticipate that happening with more PTC sites as it seems with all but two or three of my sites I am barely able to get anything.  Feels like I am crawling to pay out on my hands and knees  I hope I am wrong and it picks up because my earnings are a big help to me.  Well thanks for the heads up anyway and best of fortune to all.

I have seen several sites shut down lately.  This is in no way a real job.  Some people want to think or say it is but it isn't.  Very few people can make a real living online.  Some people find the perfect thing starting their own website and get stinkin rich.  I just heard about a local family that has done that.  You are correct in these sites do help you make some extra cash that does help out.  But lately I have been thinking and paying attention and I spend a LOT of time working on these PTC sites.  And the payout is pretty sad when you think about it.

It could come down to there only being one or two sites and then you have to provide a SS number to even be able to join.  So anything you earn is turned in.  I know the legit Secret Shopper sites it doesn't matter if you get paid for 1 shop you have to turn in a I-9 so they can send you a 1099 at the end of the year.

Another thing is most of these sites have the same offers on them.  So which ever site has the most traffic makes the most money.  If they do not make money they will not keep the site open.  Sites are merging with each other as well.  And as I said before, most people do the free stuff, so the sites are not making as much money.  The advertisers make money when people interact with their ads.  If no one does that, all they do is say the daily click in for 3 cents, then the site is actually going to lose money.

I never used this website but that does stink for the people who regularly use it.

I am ready for it to be gone. And I have told them that.  I have completed 3 surveys this morning for which I did not get paid.  I am less than $2 from cash out. I am just trying to make it to the $20.  How can I when I do the surveys and do not get anything for them.  OR you complete it and you get one penny. GRRRR

I was able to complete two pulley surveys for $1.10 ea this morning. I am at $6.40 for the month (no activity 1-3 because I was out of town). I think what I will do is get very close to cashing out and then let it roll over to next month so that I don't have to worry about earning enough for the cutoff date.

That makes sense.  I was unsure if it shuts down the last day of March will you get paid in April? I assume you will.  That actually makes a lot of sense.  Then whatever you earned you would get paid for it all.  I have had pulley surveys that are pending for ever and never actually credit so I stopped doing them.  I did get invited to a product test thru them this morning and the follow up survey won't be done until in march.

Pulley always credits for me within probably 10 minutes. I have been getting paid on the 1st for years, so I assume it's whatever you earn through the last day of March you would get paid on April 1. I don't want to miss out on earnings, but I also don't want to get "close" and then not quite get there. I am going out of the country on March 25, so I wouldn't have a full month anyway.

Wow that sucks.  I'd better get to clicking so I can cashout.  Last I was on I only had a few dollars.  I totally forgot about that site and haven't done it in months.  Let me go there now and see how much I have.

I think that stinks for their users, but maybe this will be a good thing in the end. Perhaps some of the advertisers that they work with will go and provide more earning opportunities on other sites like FusionCash. I know that probably doesn't make you feel better, but I believe things tend to work out in the end.

Only if your earnings meet the $20 cash out amount.  If it is less than that you will not get any money.  I emailed them and asked since they were closing if they would give people what money was in their account.  They said no.  I will most likely try to get to the $20, I am very close by the end of this month, and get paid March 1, and then not go back to the site again.
