As I mentioned earlier in my Intro to Making Free Money Online post, I plan on doing more research on free money sites to help you determine what best fits your personality and amount of time you’d like to invest.

I have already mentioned Inbox Dollars since it was recommended to me by a friend.  I decided it was time for me to join and try it out for myself.

I signed up two weeks ago and here is a summary of my experience:

  • I now have $6.59 in my account.  I received $5 automatically when I signed up.  I received $.84 for clicking on e-mails, $.25 for signing up for Beyond the Rack through their Cash Offers, and $.50 for completing a survey.
  • I have attempted several times to complete surveys, but have always been informed that I didn’t qualify.  (I am trying not to feel too badly about this–don’t they like me?)  There are new surveys that you can take each day if you DO qualify, however.  You can earn $.50 per survey.

Important information:

  • You can request a check once your account reaches $30.
  • Once you reach $30, you will have Gold membership status.  This means that you get to be a part of the pool of new non-referred members which allows you to earn some extra money from these referrals.  You will also receive exclusive monthly offers that will allow you to make even more money.
  • You will be paid $.01-$.10 per e-mail that you click on.  Be sure to look carefully at the bottom of offers that you have clicked on through e-mail.  In some cases, you are required to click again once the ad pops up.
  • I recommend checking out their 100% free offers in the left sidebar to boost your earnings.

Check out my Intro to Making Free Money Online post for more information on rewards programs like this.

Estimated daily time investment: Less than a minute (unless taking surveys)
Estimated amount earned in  a year with no referrals: $40+
Referrals incentive: Earn 10% of your referrals’ qualified earnings (does not include clicking on e-mails).
