Ever since I joined Associated Content, it has allowed me to make money online by writing articles like this one. But I have become more eager to earn even more money online, which is why I clicked on a link on the forums about Cash Crate. Cash Crate is one of many GPT sites on the Internet. GPT stands for Get Paid To and on these sites you can earn money by clicking ads, completing surveys, signing up for free trials and samples, etc. Some of the offers cost money, but many of them don’t cost any money at all, and I personally stick with the ones that don’t.

To make money online, all you need is some free time and an extra email address, and we all have about fifty of those lying around, right? If not, they are free and easy to set up. I recommend G-mail because you can add the little dots in your email address and it looks like a brand new email address. A good rule of thumb for making money this way is if you want to try the service/product anyway, sign up through a GPT site and get some money back into your GPT account. But personally, I don’t sign up for anything I don’t want or haven’t had before.

You can earn more money if you choose offers that require a proof or shipping and handling costs. But you don’t have to choose these offers to make money. To risk nothing, stick with the free offers. There are many of them, and not all of them confirm it, but many do. Here’s how to work on these GPT sites to earn some extra cash.

First sign up using real information, including an email you check often. They will use this email to confirm your membership, send newsletters (if you opt in), and send you an email when an offer is confirmed. Some of the sites will use your real address to send you a check for the money you’ve earned. For those sites that use paypal, be sure to include your paypal email address.

Once you’ve signed up, take a look at the site. Some sites list the most recent paid offers at the bottom of the page. These are the easiest money on the site, which makes them great deals to start with. Find the free stuff and click. Maybe you’d like to try out some of the higher paying offers later. Maybe not. It completely depends on you.

When you click on an offer, fill it in with real information and your additional email. If you don’t want to use your real phone number (because you’ll be called), you can get a private number at privatephone.com. Continue through the entire offer until you receive a message saying that your information has been accepted, or you are registered, etc. It usually comes with a thank you. But keep an eye on your additional email because sometimes these registration sites and offers want you to confirm your registrations and contest entries. And until you click on the confirmation email, your offers on the GPT site will not be processed and you will not be able to earn the money offered to you.

Between offers, it is very important that you delete your cookies. If you don’t do this, you won’t make as much money. In Microsoft Internet Explorer to clear cookies, you must click tools, then internet options, and then delete cookies. In Firefox, you need to click on tools and then options. You can then delete as many cookies as you like, or all at once. But keep in mind that if you delete all cookies, you will have to log back in to the GPT site and to your email.

There are all kinds of GPT sites to choose from, and these are my favorites. They all have more or less the same philosophy, and the same tips and tricks apply to all. They vary in the interface of the website and in the payment/payment methods. But these are my favorites because I have made money with all of them. Try them and tell me which ones you like.

Treasure Trooper is the most fun GPT site because by clicking on offers to earn money you can also collect gold and silver coins and pearls. When you complete an offer, you usually get a gold coin, and you can use these coins to buy map pieces and a journal to solve a scavenger hunt game, in which you could win a hundred dollars more. After a complete offer (whether it is confirmed or not), you can also play the shell game. If you guess the clam holding the pearl, you win the pearl. When you have accumulated eight pearls, you can buy two referrals. So you can earn more money with your referrals. If certain offers are not confirmed, you can try them again, and if you have already won a pearl, you do not need to find it again. You can try the offer again, and if it is confirmed, you still win the pearl. Treasure Trooper requires you to have twenty dollars in your account before you get paid.

Cash Crate is also a well-known GPT site that is known to pay a lot of people a lot of money. There’s no fancy game to go with the offers, but I’ve had luck getting deals to confirm. Cash Crate requires you to have twenty dollars in your account before you get paid. But just like with Treasure Trooper, you can make that amount in just a couple of hours.

Fairy Tale Treasures is a smaller GPT site run by two sisters who have a fascination with Disney. Every day they post a Disney related trivia question. If you guess the correct answer you can win a magic lamp. Magic lamps can be redeemed for referrals, which means more money for you. Fairy Tale Treasures also has a more frequent payout cycle for its members who make money. Currently they pay twice a month and the best thing is that they pay by paypal. No need to wait for a check or go to the bank to collect your money. Payment is automatic and punctual. It only takes ten dollars to be eligible for payment.

This site is very similar in design to Fairy Tale Treasures, but offers seem to be confirmed much more easily. With completed offers, you earn tokens, which can then be used to play and/or purchase prizes. You can also upgrade your membership if you have enough posters. I’m pretty new to this site, but I really like it so far. He also pays through PayPal, but he needs twenty dollars to collect.

Another thing that the GPT sites offer is the ability to shop online and receive a kickback from the stores that the GPT sites are affiliated with. For example, you can order something from Walmart and receive a percentage of your purchase in your GPT account. That’s a nice added bonus if you do a lot of shopping online. You will buy the items anyway. Why not get some of the money back when you do?
