Conclusion - Cashcrate #1

Looking to make money with online surveys? Join Cashcrate! Just click Cashcrate to start now! Get paid by check or direct deposit! Hands down the best paid survey site out there with the best potential!

After testing out a number of different survey sites, the #'s speak for themselves. After 3 months, I have managed to earn over $50 on Cashcrate, almost $10 on Opinion Outpost and not much on the other sites. Also, since ending the study I have not visited the sites in quite awhile and was surprised to find another cheque in the mail from Cashcrate for over $20 because of one of my referrals had made about $75 in one month.

#1 site is definitely Cashcrate for the biggest opportunity to make money through their daily surveys(which they have added a lot more since I ran this test) as well as their offers and definitely the best referral program.

Help me keep the ball rolling by signing up to be a referral! I want to see what an army of people can do! Also, I encourage your ideas on how to spend the money received. Tell your friends and keep doing those daily surveys, they add up!!

Do Survey Sites actually pay?

MY 3-MONTH STUDY
See "How Much $$$ are we talking here!!" below to get an update on how much I have earned in a 3-month period, starting Jan. 13, 2009 and ending April 13, 2009

POSTED JANUARY 12

Join me on my adventure as I test out different survey sites! I will be signing up for only free survey sites that do not require a credit card. I am Canadian, so I will find sites that accept International or Canadians as well as Americans.
Do they look promising?
Do they payout?
How long does it take for a payout?
Which one, if any will pay first?
Which one has to most potential to earn money?

I will try to find approximately 5-10 sites to sign up for, and then keep running tabs of of how they are each doing and update you with pictures of any checks or Paypal payments I receive.

Signed up and ready to go!

POSTED JANUARY 13
I am now signed up for 7 FREE survey sites that DO NOT REQUIRE A CREDIT CARD

New Gmail e-mail specifically for survey sites: Check
Fake phone number: Check
Auto Form Fill for FireFox: Check

On the 7 sites I have signed up for, I have entered my actual name and address in order to receive my checks. I only have a cell phone though and don't want telemarketers using my minutes so I have entered an old land line number that is no longer working.

I will be completing all of the profiles and doing as many surveys as each site will let me. I will try to check back daily so as to not miss any surveys that might expire after a few days.

CashCrate 1/3 of the offers went through for about $4. About 1 of every 3 days there is a daily survey that I qualify for, for $.80 - did 6 so far. Sitting at $7.90 expecting $8.70 soon.
Opinion Outpost
sent me a survey worth 25 points $2.50.
Jan 21-24
HOT TIP!! CashCrate
from $7.90 to $8.95. I think I found a loophole if you are Canadian! It allows you to do a daily survey actually daily(E-mail marvin346@gmail.com or use the message center within CashCrate for details!!). They usually credit them after the weekend, so I will see if I get a few more $ by early next week.
Opinion Outpost
from $2.50 to $4.50

Jan 24-27
CashCrate from $8.95 to $10.55. This one's starting to be my favorite so far!!

CashCrate from $12.15 to $15.35

CashCrate from $15.35 to $19.35
Feb 12 - Feb 16
CashCrate from $19.35 to $20.15 although not a lot of headway because I missed a couple of daily surveys, I should see some $$ coming my way in a little over a month.
Feb16-23
Opinion Outpost account from $4.00 to $6.50 and I received a check for $9.50US!
CashCrate from $20.15 t0 $24.66.

NetPanel from $6.25 to $6.50
Mar 6 - April 13
Went on vacation, didn't do survey's for about a month. Missed a whole bunch of opportunities, but still made a little bit and received my check from CashCrate. My study is now complete.
Opinion Outpost from $11.30 to $29.30
CashCrate is now at $10.99 plus recieved a check for $27.06 for a total of $52.06 received!
SurveyHead from $8.00 to $15.00
A.W. Surveys another monthly survey went from $29 to $30 (subtract $25 pay out fee) = $5.

PROOF OF PAYMENT!!

This is my favorite part. Seeing if they actually send you a check. Guess what? THEY DO!!

The first one is from Opinion Outpost for $9.50US. Here is folks:

Expecting one about 3 times larger from CashCrate after Mid March.






Second Check is compliments of CashCrate in the amount of $25.00.

While doing one of the $.80 cent daily surveys, at the end of 5 minute survey they asked where they could send the $25 check. I thought "yeah right". Sure enough about 3 or so weeks later it's here!! This check is in Canadian funds, as it was sent by the survey I took through CashCrate and not from CashCrate directly. The $27.06 check I will be receiving from CashCrate will be in American
Funds.





Here it is. Check #3 for $27.06. Thank you CashCrate

About Me

I'm Canadian. I have always been curious if these sites actually pay. So far I havn't been spending too much time on them. Checking my e-mail daily takes less than 1 minute. Surveys work out to about $2-$24 an hour - but that's maybe 10 minutes every few days when I would be killing time anyways. If your interested, please sign up as a referral - CashCrate seems to be doing the best right now. Also add yourself as a follower of the blog, comment, or e-mail any questions. marvin346@gmail.com
