My Experience with Cash Crate

Cash Crate is one of those money making sites that you either love or hate. Some folks will give up on Cash Crate without ever really giving it a chance. I’ve been working the site now for over a year. I’ve been a member of Cash Crate for about two years now, but the first year I didn’t do anything with the site, because I felt I had worked really hard and made payout, but never got my check. I had reported after several days that I didn’t get my check, and asked for another one to be issued. I was told by email that I would have to wait for 90 days. I waited and still nothing was done to make things right.

After a year had passed and I still had not gotten my $28 check I put a discussion on Mylot about my experience with Cash Crate. I felt it was a scam outfit, because I seemed to be getting the run around. Of course I got lots of responders to tell me they got their checks every month like clockwork, but they offered me no help on how to get my check. Finally someone on Mylot did come to my aid. He sent my discussion to a person known as Cash Crate Joe. Joe signed up in Mylot just to talk to me on there. He said that he was sorry that I had had such a bad experience, and he would personally see that a new check was issued. I am happy to say that in just a few days my very first check arrived that had been due me for so long. Since then I have had no problems at all getting my pay.

Depending on how you work Cash Crate you can make payout every month or every other month. I make payout about every other month, because I do only certain kinds of ads. I have learned which ads pay for me and which don’t. The ads that are 25 cents each and tell you fill out the form with valid information and then click on two offers. I learned by experience that I don’t have to fill out the two offers. I fill out the information with my name, address, phone number, email address, and whatever else it asks for and then I am directed to a small survey, and then pages for offers come up. I don’t fill out those offers, I just click on the “Skip” button on two ads and then I go back to the original Cash Crate directions for the offer and then click submit.

I’ve learned through experience that many of the ads are only good for one time, so to keep working at Cash Crate I have learned to make a new email address each month when new offers come in. I also do not enter my home phone number into the forms that I am filling out, because telemarketers use the number to call you. I give a valid number, but it is to my cell phone that I don’t use.

Cash Crate has offers that are free, and those that are for free trials, and those that you have to make a purchase. I do not do any of the free trial or the ones where I have to purchase anything. Some people do these offers and have good luck with them. Some offers are for $30 and $40 and you might have to pay up to $5 or more or so to complete the offer. The people that do this often cancel the purchase as soon as the offer confirms. I have heard people say they have had no problems canceling their credit card purchase, and then other people have gone through a nightmare doing this. Being that I don’t want my bank card information to be out there in cyberspace I don’t complete those offers where I have to use a credit card or bank card. You can read more about earning $100 a month or more by reading the articles listed in my sources.

Over all I have had a good experience with Cash Crate. You won’t get rich filling out offers at Cash Crate, but depending on how dedicated you are, you can make payout, which is $20 each month, or every other month. Right now I have $28 in Cash Crate, so I will receive a check on or about March 20. Tomorrow, March 1 will start a new month for Cash Crate and I will then work on another payout.

For me, filling out offers gets pretty boring, so I don’t spend a lot of time each day doing it. As I mentioned earlier only certain offers confirm for me. The 25 cent offers are a gold mine for me. A quarter doesn’t sound like much, but when you have a slew of them, they do pay off. There are quite a few 50 cent and a few $1 and $2 offers that will confirm for me also.

I steer clear of the offers that ask me to fill out a questionnaire type of survey, because they have never confirmed for me. I treat Cash Crate like it is a part time job. Between networking with AC to get a fairly high page view payout, and working other sites such as Mylot and Gather, I check on Cash Crate in between.

You can make more money if you get referrals under you. If you get a referral to sign up under you and they fill out three offers you get $24. I have heard that the fastest way to earn money is to do the trial offers, but like I said earlier I don’t do that. If you do the trial offers, you don’t get paid unless they confirm, just like with the free offers. Once the offer confirms and you get your money credited to your Cash Crate account, be sure to cancel your trial offer or you will be paying for it. I would also advise canceling the trial offer if it does not confirm in a day or so. If an offer is going to confirm, it will usually confirm within a few hours or a day at the most. If your offer did not confirm within a day, be sure to cancel, or you will go broke filling out offers.

My source says that some of the trial offers are fairly easy to cancel after they confirm, but others are more difficult. With some offers you can make a phone call to cancel your account with them, and others you have to go through an online chat to cancel. Some trial offers are offered through the same company under different names, and they won’t confirm your offer if you already canceled with another offer that the company offers. For me, remembering to call customer support, or going online to a chat room to explain why I want cancel when I just signed up is too much of a hassle for me. I will stick with the free offers, but you may like doing the trial offers, and you may be successful at it.

Another word about the referral program. If your referral makes payout you get 20 percent of their earnings on top of your own. You also make $3 for every referral that earns their first $10 at Cash Crate. If you are interested in working Cash Crate and you can sign up under me: http://cashcrate.com/177720

There is one more way to earn from Cash Crate, and that is from the daily surveys. Each survey is worth 80 cents, and you can do 2 surveys each day, so if you qualify for both surveys 7 days a week, that is an extra $11.20 a week. Each survey could take more than 30 minutes to do, but they are not at all tedious. You may be asked to watch a video, or you might get some flash ads that come very fast. The survey may test your memory by asking if you saw certain ads in the video. I would suggest you keep a pen and paper handy to jot down what  you see, because the ads go so fast that you may not remember what ads you saw otherwise.
