We’re On the Move! – Sorry about this guys and gals, but we’ve got to move, and I’ve taken the oportunity to give the site a nice new look and a brand new name.
Cash on the net is the site’s new name, and this one will soon be gone, so please, go visit that and replace your bookmarks!
Many Thanks
Vi
There are two REALLY superb special offers listed on the site at the moment – over on the right there!
I know these aren’t MONEY, but they’re such good deals that they’re well worth a look if you can!
This is a cashback site. They give you £2.50 when you join as a thankyou for joining them, and you can earn up to 35% cashback on purchases made through the site with the various retailers they have there. They have a vast selection of retailers available including Amazon, Additions, Littlewoods, HMV and many more.
Unlike most cashback sites, this one also has codes that they have on site to help you with money off when you do your online shopping too, so it’s worth keeping an eye on these so you don’t miss out on extra money off!
When you reach £25 you can choose to cashout your money and you’ll be given another £2.50 bonus into your account to get you started again.
You can also earn £5 when you refer a friend to Ecashback. The referral bonus is paid when the referred user makes their first qualifying purchase through the site.
Pigsback is a site where you can earn points and then turn the points into either gifts, or gift vouchers. Earning points can be done in a number of ways, from buying through their links, to signing up to newsletters and sending for information. However, there are other ways to earn points as well. Every week they have adverts on your personal pigsback page which are worth 5 points when you click on them. You can also enter competitions where you can earn points if you win, and there’s a special betting section too where you can bet on all sorts of things from the football results to who’s going to win the latest big brother and lots more. You bet some of your existing points, and if you win, you win a proportion of the pot based on how many people bet the same way you did.
Another way you can earn extra points is by writing things for the site itself. There are a number of sections around the site where you can send in snippets of information such as beauty tips, or info on places to go in London and a variety of other things. If your piece is used then you get some points – normally 50 to 100 of them.
Your points are kept in your piggy bank on the site, and when you have enough you can spend them on a variety of things. Rewards vary from gift vouchers such as Boots, Topshop, Pizza Hut and many others (a £10 gift voucher costs 1150 points) to items such as pigsback branded items like mugs, shopping bags, soft cuddly pigs, keyrings and even a manicure kit. The cheapest item you can opt for is a set of 5 branded pencils for 175 points, and the most expensive item is a half carat princess diamond 18ct white gold ring at 85000 points! As you can probably imagine, there’s plenty in between to choose from too.
They also have a special section on the site where you can download coupons to print off. These can be taken to your supermarket and will give you money off your shopping, and they’re free. Not only that, but when you use them, you then get extra points added to your account as well, Not bad!
Bview is a site where you can write reviews about places near to you (or far away, as long as you’ve vistied them!), from your local butcher or supermarket to pubs and clubs, solicitors, and every other sort of business you can think of.
When you have writen your first 20 reviews and they’ve been checked (no getting away with copying from else where or writing one liners here!) BView will send you a free £10 Amazon gift voucher as a thankyou.
This isn’t a money making site where you’re going to make a lot, but it’s a nice touch that they’ve added allowing people to earn a bit, and don’t forget that you’re joining in and helping others out at the same time. Someone visiting or moved to your area who wants to know which butcher is good and which isn’t can go on there and see what you’ve writen about the different butchers and it may well help them to decide who to try for themselves. A clever idea and a nice site. Can I suggest you also take a look at this page before you start writing too, it tells you how long and what sort of reviews they’re wanting (So you make sure you do good enough reviews to get your voucher!).
This is a UK based ptc or ptr site, I know it might not seem it when it pays in American dollars, but it’s based in the UK and run by a bloke called Charlie from London.
Like most American (or american style in this case) ptr sites, it really doesn’t pay much per click that you do, but if you do all the clicks around the site every day it does add up. If you can get yourself a few referrals as well then it starts to add up even faster as they pay 18% on your referrals.
Cashout here at is low at just $1 (that’s about 50p in UK money), and you can opt for random payouts too which means that you might be paid at any time regardless of how much money you have in your account. Payment is made by paypal in $’s so if you’re based anywhere else in the world you will then need to convert to your local currency.
There are numerous different areas on the website where you can find links to click, and you can also opt to be sent e-mails with links in as well so you can earn even more from these. Most international members are welcomed here. Click on the banner at the top to join.
Ipsos is a survey site. You earn money for filling in surveys. What happens is that Ipsos look for people of certain profiles and then send them e-mails with links to surveys based on whether they seem to fit the required profile. When you recieve an e-mail, you click on the link and are taken to the survey. Assuming you aren’t screened out (the first few questions normally check to see if you really are of the right profile), then you complete the survey and are awarded an amount of points which are added to your Ipsos account.
You build points up in your Ipsos account and then you can spend them on a variety of different gift vouchers, including WHSmiths, Boots, Argos, John Lewis, Arcadia and Leisure vouchers. You can choose from different denominations, and the more points you save, the more you can get, for example a £2 gift voucher will cost you 350 points, a £5 gift voucher will cost you 750 points and a £10 gift voucher 1380 so as you can see it’s worth saving your points for a little longer and going for larger gift vouchers if you can.
Ciao is a site where you can write your opinions about various subjects from products you’ve bought to websites you’ve visited and make money from doing so. Basically the way it works is if you want to write a review/opinion, what you do is to go to the site, find the item or site that you want to write about, then write about it. When you’ve done so, you publish it on the site, and then people can read the review and your opinion of the item/site.
The idea is that when you write about something you’ve bought whether it be a washing machine, new car, stereo or cd, other people who are thinking about buying that item can read what you think and get an idea from that about whether the item is going to suit them.
The way you make money from this, is that if the person who is reading your review is also a Ciao member, when they read and rate your review then you get paid 1/2 a penny or 1 penny or even 2 pennies depending on what the review was about and if it’s an item/site that Ciao is trying to push hard or not.
The money gets stored up in your Ciao account and then when you have accumulated £5 or more, you can request a payout from them. They pay out via BACS so the money will be transfered directly into your bank account. They send payments once a month, for the previous month, so if you request a payment in June, it would be paid to you at the end of July.
To sign up to Ciao please click on the banner at the top.
Ciao Surveys was originally part of Ciao. It’s now been separated off and is run totally seperately with your income building up separately as well. Once you’ve filled in your profile, you will be sent invitations by e-mail to complete surveys and earn money.
Surveys can have a cash reward from 10p up to £5 according to the site, but I’ve personally never seen one over £2.50 in value.
When you have reached a balance in your Ciao Surveys account of £5 or more, you can request a payout. The method of payment that both Ciao and Ciao Surveys use is BACS transfer, so the money will go direct into your bank account. Payments are made at the end of the month for the previous month, so if you make a request for payment in April, you will recieve it at the end of May.
Ciao surveys has a referral scheme where you can earn £1 for each member that you refer to the site. You will be paid the £1 into your account when your friend has completed their first survey.
Mutual Points is one of those sites that falls partly under the category of cashback site, and partly under the category of other ways to make money. The reason for this is that although there are a lot of retailers on the site where you can get cashback – in this case in the form of points – when you shop with them, there are also quite a number of other ways of building up your points.
Firstly Mutual Points sends out regular e-mails to it’s members that contain links. When you click through the link to the site talked about in the e-mail you earn points – normally it’s 5 points for this sort of click. They also send out e-mails with special offers in them such as sign up to this newsletter and earn points, or arrange a test drive in a car and get points.
When you’ve collected 3000 points, you can request a cashout and your 3000 points will be turned into £20 which is paid in the form of a cheque to you.
