Can't Beat Free

[missamyliz]

So, I saw some posts about SwagBucks (which I love) and thought I'd share my fave Reward Site which is www.cantbeatfree.net (no referral there, ty :P) The rewards are much easier to get and you get them MUCH faster than other sites. It's not as professionally laid out, and can be confusing to navigate at first (some different buttons lead to the same place), but it's the most worth my time as far as reward sites go. There are PayPal, Amazon, and eBay gift cards to choose from, and I've personally never had to wait more than 72 hours for a reward. Just thought I'd share

PS - if this post is breaking the rules (I looked around and tried to make sure I didn't post anything prohibited) I'd like to apologize in advance!

About how long does it take you to get, say, a 10 dollar gift certificate?

I'm trying to register, but it keeps telling me the security code is invalid. The thing is, I don't see a place to enter the silly code!

I usually go for the $5 cards, and I can get 1-3 per week depending on how much time I put into it - especially in the beginning, there's lots of one time offers for newbies that add up fast. Sometimes I save up for the $20 card instead, that usually takes me about a week. Also, if you get referrals, and they get referrals, it'll be a lot faster. I don't have any referrals whatsoever, but I believe you get a percentage of earnings down to like the 3rd line? Meaning your referrals' referrals' referrals earn you points.

It's a drop down menu to choose the code from

Awesome! If you need any help feel free to hit me up, although if you email the admin he's usually pretty quick about answering & sometimes hangs out in the chatbox there.

i signed up but am thoroughly confused at how to earn points lol

[missamyliz]

LOL I was too when I first started. If you click on "Offerwall" it will take you to the different companies that have offers - Can't Beat Free, Peanut Labs, CrowdFlower, etc. When you click on each of those, you'll be taken to their offers. Most walls except CrowdFlower have videos you can watch for a couple points - I usually start by opening each wall in a separate tab, then I go through and find & load a vid in each one and let it play while I go through the others.

Most walls (again, CF excluded) also have free offers, and you can usually filter results to only show free offers. Personally, I don't do any that require downloads or credit info. But a lot are like requesting insurance info, surveys, website sign up, email sign up. I set up a separate email acct to use for email sign ups so I don't have to deal with unsubscribing later. Peanut Labs has a lot of surveys too, I'm not a big fan of reward site surveys because I usually have a hard time qualifying.

When you look at the offers, under each one should show the requirements - some only require entering a zip code. Also, I recommend cleaning cookies & cache often (at least once or twice a day) to make sure you get credit when offers get re-posted.

CrowdFlower posts a lot of the same tasks they post on mTurk, only you get points instead of cash. You can use your points to get PayPal gift cards though.

You also get points from the daily jackpot. I believe any offer you complete worth more than 3 points gets you jackpot entry, and 100 entries are drawn at midnight that split the pot (jackpot total is shown on the left side of the page). You won't win every night, but some nights you'll get more than one winning entry so you get multiple shares of the pot.

The best advice I can give you is to pay attention to the chat even if you don't socialize. Anytime an offer credits, it's announced in the chat box, and a lot of veteran users are there discussing which offers are crediting, how fast, etc.

Hope that helps you guys get started

Thanks for the very useful information. Now, just as an offhand comment, hopefully you will take it as intended and not report me, but I find your avatar sexy, a beautiful woman with a duct taped mouth, how can you go wrong?
