Datacoup (US only)- Earn passive with your social media accounts

Datacoup

         Datacoup pays you for connecting your social media accounts like facebook and twitter then sells the data to other company. You might be thinking that it's a stupid idea since your selling your personal data for others, the data they are selling are usually the common ones like: gender, hometown, relationship status on facebook which are usually shown in public. If you want you can connect your smurf or dummy accounts just to be safe (yes, you can create new account then connect it to Datacoup). Here is the list of accounts they support for now: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Foursquare, Google+, LastFM, Tumblr, Meetup and Instagram.

          Basically, you need to set up your account first, add your PayPal account and connect your media accounts (the more accounts you connect, the higher money you will earn) then it will earn you money passively every month. The website shows the projected value of your profile, which is the price your going to get per week if your data has been purchased.

"Purchasers of data have access to a large pool of aggregated, de-identified, anonymous Datacoup user data. For example, when you start selling your data, we combine it with all the other Datacoup users' data, take out anything personally identifiable, and then analyze the large pool, looking for patterns across different demographics and other data characteristics. None of this aggregated data can be traced back to a particular individual user." -Datacoup FAQ

Note: Payouts are done via PayPal every month and there's no referral. They got a new payment provider (Stripe), you can currently get paid out directly to your Visa or Mastercard,

*Try at your own risk.

EDIT #1: March 11, 2015 they send an e-mail that says that they are moving out of PayPal and switching to Stripe. They won't accommodate other users outside US for now.

Paid Surveys with AIP Online Surveys and GlobalTestMarket

What are Paid Surveys?

"A paid or incentivized survey is a type of statistical survey where the participants/members are rewarded through an incentive program, generally entry into a sweepstakes program or a small cash reward, for completing one or more surveys".

-Wikipedia 

Note: Usually paid surveys are targeting specific group of audience that's why most of the time you'll get zoned out or disqualified for taking a survey.

Neobux and Clixsense - Two of the best pay per click out there

What is a Pay per click site?

         PPC is a type of sponsored online advertising that is used on a wide range of websites, including search engines, where the advertiser only pays if a web user clicks on their ad. That's why it is called "pay per click"

In layman's term: You click an advertisement and you'll be redirected to the webpage (you need to stay on the page for few seconds) and you get paid.

You must be thinking by now that it's too easy to be true. Yes, you may doubt but pay per click sites like Neobux and ClixSense are legit.

I think it's too easy, so what's the catch?

• You click an advertisement and get paid for at least $.001 (WTF? what do you expect of a too easy job)

• There's a minimum amount of money on your account before you can cash out to your PayPal, Payza, etc.

• Slow earning unless you invest and recruit some friends.

Shall I still use it?

         Yes and No (mostly depends on you),  Nowadays pay per click sites offer more ways to earn more which can vary depending on the site that you are using.  Clicking advertisement everyday doesn't take much of your time (not even a half hour). When using PPC sites you'll understand that every click everyday is important since you only earn few cents. Basically, don't use it if your lazy and you want to earn money immediately. As far as I see it, PPC sites are long term goal.

         There are many pay per click sites, but I'm only going to tell the sites that are legit based on what I already used and it's up to you to figure out other PPC sites.

Neobux

          

• Ads: 20+ ads per day that pays $0.001-$0.015 per click.

• Payout: Payments are instant to AlertPay or PayPal. Minimum $2 (Each time you request a cash out the threshold increase by a dollar).

• Bonus pack for every click - exchange for an upgrade or an AdPrize (win up to $50, 1000 neopoints, or Golden membership for free).

• One of the most trusted PTC sites since 2008.

• Referrals: $0.0005-$0.005 per referral click.

• Features direct (users that signs up under your referral link) and rented referrals (referrals that you bought on the website and serves you for a certain amount of time) .

• Features Offers section and Mini jobs (This are usually jobs from CrowdFlower, eg. Help us validate Authors and Articles, Musician Biographies, Are These People the Same, etc) to earn more. 

My experience: Your first dollar will be a bit slow but when you rented your first referral pack your earnings will be much faster. Your rented referrals needs attention everyday since they are helping you earn a lot. There are various guides at Neobux's forum on how to manage your referrals. Basically, the more rented referrals you have and as long as they click, the more you will earn. I'm not lucky at their AdPrize but on their forums I saw some people to win golden membership, $5, etc. (F*ck those guys). You can invest in this site as long as you have the knowledge to manage your referrals.

ClixSense

• Ads: 10 per day, click rate $0.001-$0.02.
• Payout: Minimum $8 for standard members, to PayPal or AlertPay.
• Online and paying since 2007.
• Chance to win $5 every day by playing ClixGrid.
• Referrals: $0.0002-$0.008 per click. Unlimited number of referrals. (Only direct referrals)
• There is a task section which is similar to Neobux's mini job.

• Features survey section (demographic surveys which you need to get qualified first and when you do you get to answer some questions and get paid for it).

My experience: Since there is no rented referral system here, you are earning by yourself only. Ad clicking, answering surveys, doings tasks and offers, and clixgrid are some ways to earn at ClixSense. ClixGrid is a game where you click at a certain part of a picture shown and you will be redirected to an advertiser website until the timer is completed and you will see if your a loser winner or a loser. You get bonus when you complete their daily checklist (Viewing PTC Ads, Playing ClixGrid, Completing tasks, Completing Offers, Visiting the Forum).

Payment:
• Minimum balance to cashout is $6 for Premium members and $8 for Standard members, for PayPal, Payza and Paytoo only (*Payza is available for limited countries)
