I recently cautioned against paid surveys, stating that the only legitimate survey site I had discovered was Harris Poll Online. Since that time, I’ve been reading about CashCrate and the many bloggers who have had success with it. Some of these bloggers are earning hundreds, and even thousands of dollars per month with CashCrate.I signed up for CashCrate a couple of weeks ago, and though I haven’t been as active as I should have been, the time I have spent on the site has been fruitful. Just a few minutes per day participating in surveys and free offers quickly adds up. The greatest earnings potential, however, comes from referrals.

CashCrate has a very generous referral program, offering you 20% of what your direct referrals earn, as well as 10% of what their referrals earn. You also receive a $3.00 bonus for each referral who meets the $10 minimum payout. Monthly earnings are paid on the 20th of the following month, provided that the minimum payout has been met.

Another interesting feature of CashCrate is that you can be paid to shop at the online stores they have partnered with. By using the links provided, a percentage of the money you spend will be credited back to your CashCrate account. Cash back ranges from 1 to 100% of purchase price!

If you’re interested in earning some extra cash each month, I highly recommend CashCrate. My only advice is that you sign up with an alternate email address so that your main mailbox doesn’t receive any related spam. I haven’t received a lot of spam from my participation in this program, but I have received a few emails here and there.

I wish you the best of luck if you decide to give CashCrate a try!

    Well, I signed up. I expect to start raking in the dough at any moment, or I’m coming after you! ;)

    Seriously, I hope I don’t start getting spam or worse - unsolicited phone calls - from this…

    Tish, why would you suggest using a dedicated email address? Is there a danger to using a non-dedicated one? I like to use one of my gmail accounts for things like that as I do tend to get SPAM from some of these types of programs, so just in case, it leaves my dedicated account clear. Do they not let you sign up with a “free” email provider account? Or are you just saying a lot of emails could get stuck in SPAM filters?

    Barry - Thanks for signing up! I hope you have good luck with it. I suggested an alternate email address so that you don’t start getting spam in your regular mailbox.

    Andrew - By dedicated email, I just meant an email other than your main email address. By using an alternate email address, you keep any spam from making its way to your regular mailbox. :)

    How much have you earned so far? Does it take less effort than writing paid posts? ;)

    Malin - From what I understand, the major earnings come after you get a team of referrals going. I’m not making great money yet, but I only have two referrals. I’m making much better money with paid posts on my personal blog. :)
