I have spent a lot of time talking about how you can make money from home by completing surveys. You may not get rich from them, but I think I have shown that they are worth the time to complete them. So far this year I have made $127.26 from completed surveys and have cashed out $86.90.
To really make an impact on how much money you make, you really need to have multiple income sources. Now that you have a list of 10 different survey companies to join(check sidebar for list), I want to move onto Cash Back sites.
I frequently add cash back sites to my online deal posts. If you are not familiar with these sites then let me explain. Instead of going directly to a retail website to make an online purchase, you will first go to one of these cash back sites. I have a few sites I use regularly, so I will check each one by doing a search of the store I am wanting to make a purchase from. Once I find the site that offers the most cash back on my purchase, I will click through to the store site and shop as normal. The only difference is that I will receive a percentage back from the cash back site.
Why do they do this?
Well they are receiving a commission by you using their link to shop at these stores. They are just sharing a percentage back to you on what they are making. So it really is a win-win.
Another way to make money from these sites is by referring others to use them also. Some will pay you $5 when your referrer makes their first purchase and others will pay you a percentage of your referrers cash back.
Here is a list of my favorite sites:
ShopAtHome- You will receive $5 for joining and also another $5 for everyone you refer once they make their first purchase. You will receive a check once your account reaches $20. Checks are mailed on a monthly schedule.
I have made $35.73 so far this year and a total of $145.98 from ShopAtHome since joining 2 years ago.
Mr. Rebates- You will receive $5 for joining and also 20% of all your referrals cash back. You can request a check or payment through PayPal once your available rebates hit $10. Payments will be sent on the first of the month.
I have made $88.41 so far this year and a total of $299.22 from Mr. Rebates since joining 2 years ago.
BigCrumbs- This is the only site that offers a cash back on your purchases at Ebay. If you sell on Ebay, you can also list your store on BigCrumbs to increase your exposure. Not only will you receive a percentage of your referrals purchases but will also receive a percentage of their referrals purchases. You will receive a payment every month your account is over $1 through PayPal or on a BigCrumbs Prepaid Mastercard.
I have made $.38 so far this year and a total of $2.04 since joining BigCrumbs 2 years ago.
Ebates- You will receive $5 when you make your first purchase and also $5 for each new qualified referral. You will receive payment once you have earned over $5.01 from purchases. Payments are sent out every 3 months by PayPal or check.
I have made $12.38 so far this year from Ebates.
Cash Back for the Year- $136.90
Since most of these sites have a threshold before you will receive a payment, I would reccomend only using a couple. That way you will not have a small amount of money in a lot of accounts and will receive a payment quicker.
