Earn Money Online – Join Swagbucks!

August 13, 2012 By Beth_Anne 1 Comment

Welcome to another post about making money online! Several months ago I wrote a post about using Superpoints. I believe that Superpoints is the easiest program to make money with but it is also the SLOWEST.

Another reward program I have grown to love is Swagbucks. Over the past year I have learned a lot about using swagbucks. Like anything in life there are pros and cons. My blogging friend Mandi wrote a great post a few months ago that you can find here about her experiences using swagbucks. Today I am going to share my pros and cons about using swagbucks.

Swagbucks PROS

Doesn’t take a lot of effort – you earn swagbucks just for searching the internet
It can be fun!
You earn REAL PRIZES!
You don’t need a million points to earn prize
If you have an ANDROID phone download the SWAGBUCKS TV app to earn up to 50 swagbucks a day! (It only takes 9 days to earn enough for a $5 Amazon giftcard!)

Swagbucks CONS

Can take a long time to earn enough swagbucks to buy rewards
You can only purchase 2 rewards in 1 day & 5 of the same reward in one month
Can be time consuming if you OBSESS over trying to earn by watching videos, using coupons, and completing tasks

MY TIPS

Over the past year EVERYONE told me to save all my swagbucks for Christmas, birthdays, or other big spending occassions. A few weeks ago I had over 5000 swagbucks! After researching the swagbucks catalog I found the best prize for your swagbucks is the $5 Amazon giftcard for 450 swagbucks so I had enough for close to 10 giftcards.

The problem I ran into was that you can only purchase 2 prizes a day. This didn’t seem to be that big of a deal I just bought my 2 giftcards a day and went on my way. But after day 3 I ran into another problem. You can only redeem 5 of the same reward in 1 month.

Well at this rate it would have taken me until October to redeem all my swagbucks and I wanted to buy something NOW. So I caved and spent a few more swagbucks and bought a $25 Amazon giftcard instead of waiting. So my suggestion to you is as you go purchase the $5 Amazon giftcards as soon as you hit 450 points. These giftcards never expire and will stay in your swagbucks account until you are ready to use them.

Has anyone else had any success or failure’s with Swagbucks? I find it a good program that doesn’t take too much effort for things your already doing already (like searching the web)

Earn Money Online – Join Superpoints!

*Please note that Superpoints has shut their services as of 2012*

Welcome to a new series on how to Make Money Online! In this series I am going to teach you how to earn money online using several reward programs. The two reward programs I use the most are Swagbucks and Superpoints. Today I am going to teach you how to use Superpoints. Superpoints is really slow in earning money but it also takes the least amount of time and effort. Over time you can earn $5 paypal gift cards (which is equal to cash) or other rewards.

SUPERPOINTS is still a newer reward site and because of this it is INVITE only. Don’t let that worry you if you click my link you can join since I am a member! After you click my link you will come to this screen:

I recommend creating a separate email address to sign-up for any offer I promote on my blog. I recommend gmail; but hotmail, and yahoo work as well. After you fill in your information and accept the terms click continue. You will receive a confirmation email shortly. In the email click on the link in order to confirm your account. This is the next screen you will see:

In the above screen shot I have marked all the sections in the top right part of the screen in BLACK. You need to make sure to COMPLETELY fill out your profile to 100%. You need to fill out the following parts of your profile: Account Info, Member Info, Upload a photo (any photo will work even a photo of your pet will work), and advanced profile in order to get your profile to 100%. Once your profile is at 100% your membership level will increase from NONE to BASIC.

There are four different Membership Level

	FRIEND REQUIREMENTS	PROFILE COMPLETEDNESS	SUPERLUCKY BUTTON	REDEMPTION THRESHOLD
NONE	0	Account Created	5 clicks per day	NONE
BASIC	0	E-mail Verified & Basic Information Complete	30 clicks per day	2,500 SUPERPOINTS
GOLD	2+ (Basic Members or Above)	Email Verified, Basic Information Complete, Advanced Profile Complete, & Valid Picture	50 clicks per day	1,000 SUPERPOINTS
PLATINUM	5+ (Basic Members or Above)	Email Verified, Basic Information Complete, Advanced Profile Complete, & Valid Picture	100 clicks per day	500 SUPERPOINTS

From the chart obviously it is to your advantage to have at least 2 friends sign up under you so you can get 50 SuperLucky Clicks per day and redeem your points by only having 1,000 points.

Now that we have learned how to sign-up and the membership levels let’s talk about how we actually earn SUPERPOINTS:

1. EMAILS – About once a day you will receive emails from SUPERPOINTS saying you have won anywhere from 1 – 19 superpoints. Just click on the link and the points will be added to your account.

2. SUPER LUCKY BUTTON – The super lucky button is just what it sounds. It’s a button you click on and you may or may not win superpoints. It is Superpoints version of a slot machine. This can take a while (especially if you make it to platinum and have 100 clicks a day) and be very boring but is easy to do while your watching TV, reading, killing time. (I have friends whose children LOVE to do this for them.)

3. Complete Offers – In this section you can purchase different things to recieve superpoints. For example if you purchase a subscription to NETFLIX you will receive 1250 superpoints. In this section there are also videos you can watch and surveys you can take.

4. INVITE FRIENDS – Like I said earlier the more friends you have the higher your membership level gets. However, for every friend that registers you receive 25 Superpoints and then a percentage of any superpoints they receive.

If you try and make a goal to get 15-20 Superpoints a day you will be able to earn at least 1 $5 giftcard a month. That is $5 free money that you didn’t have last month. You can also save all your points for Christmas and cash them all out then and not have to spend as much come Christmas time.

If you have any questions about how Superpoints works or setting up your profile just let me know and I’ll be sure to help you!

I also want to thank Mandi @ The Catholic Newlywed for helping me learn about Superpoints so I could help my readers in return!
