How to make money with Get-Pay-To (GPT) sites

Like all of us, I am interested in making more money. One way to accomplish this task is to look for sources of income to add to the income from Hubpages. In this pursuit, I recently investigated FusionCash and other Get-Pay-To (GPT) sites for their potential as an income source. Some websites reported FusionCash as one of the sites to take surveys for money. FusionCash provides a $5 sign up bonus, and it is reported to have a rating of A+ from the Better Business Bureau (BBB). The GPT site opened in June 2005; it is claimed that FusionCash has paid nearly $2 million out to its members. GPT sites are sites that pay you to do offers and surveys.

A list of GPT sites includes the following:

· · InstantCashSweepstakes

· · Rewards1

· · Cash4Free

· · Points2Shop

· · CasinoGPT

· · SquishyCash

· · CashCrate

· · CashPirate

· · GrandTheftCash

· · Points4Rewards

· · DollaPal

Typically, GPT sites are fee to join. Therefore, beware of any site that asks you to pay. Many people are concerned about GPT sites actually paying out and the amount of time required for making money on this matter. I investigated the earning potential of GPT site and this is what I found:

Table 1

Elements Data: Summary

Date Started: 6/19/2009

Total Earned: $1,299.71

Total Paid out:$1,017.09, As of: 04/16/2011

Both tables are provided to show the amount of income that are typical of GPT sites. The information shows that this type of sites pay. But, they do not pay a large sum of money. The implication is that you should not expect to earn large amount of money or get rich quick from this type of activity.

Beware of expire earnings

Many would be GPT user have expressed frustration about expired earnings. Some argued that you have to have$100 before they allow you to cash out. The argument here is that it is more likely that your earnings will expire before you are able to cash out. Not everyone agreed with the $100 limits.

I found reports that clearly show that GPT pays out less than $100.00

· · Requested cash outs: Amount $71.10, Date 2007-06-18, Direct Deposit Transaction ID: XXXXXXXXX

· · Requested cash outs amount: $38.40, Date 2007-08-06 Pending Cancel What is this?

· Expect payment on or before: September 20^th.

Cashing out

Cashing out is important, and reportedly there are two balance requirements for cashing out in some sites. Some sites will allow you to cash out when your balance reaches at least $25, and $15 of the balance must come from offer completions. One area of concern is that you have to complete offers to get paid, and then if you forgot to cancel the trials you will get debited from the account.

Some will find it a valuable as part of strategy to make money online, while others will claim that GPT is a waste of time. This article does not make judgment about this income potential. It was written to provide information to help you make an informed decision.
