FusionCash is certainly one of the more established GPT programs on the internet. They have just about 18,000 members and have reportedly payed out $1.426 million since June 2005 (an average $80 per user!). Arguably the most successful GPT website, FusionCash delivers exceptional service, plenty of offers, 3 payout options and a cash out minimum of $25 dollars. While it falls short on community, ease of use bumps this to a strong buy.

Jimvesting gives FusionCash a 4-out-of-5 rating

FusionCash is my play for people over the age of 21 looking to make their money online. Over 21? Why!? I see this site as a more professional move into GPT cash. There are no type of forum-based contests available, there is no incentivized contest like Treasure Trooper’s Treasure Hunt or SWATcash’s Missions and there is no credit system like that on basically every other GPT website. So how are they bringing in all of these members? I think their age demographic is higher than other websites, mainly because it is more “adult” and seems to be the place to make money without wasting time on side-quests. If you want to cut the crap and take cash off the table, FusionCash is the place to be.

FusionCash gets a 4/5 rating because they are superior if not for the lack of bonuses. Taking a look at the website objectively, their payouts are high and they offer three methods of payout: check, PayPal and direct deposit. You really don’t see people offering direct deposit anymore, and that is an indicator of security in the business. I myself chose “check” and was payed on schedule at just over $25, the minimum cash out. Lots of people on the FusionCash forum have argued claims on having missing payment, and that the site is a scam. But I assure you, they are no scam. Understanding the GPT business goes to show there is really no incentive to cheat customers. Established in the GPT community, you can trust these guys. Read the rest of this entry »

SWATcash is the Net Fool 2008 GPT Website of the year. Why? Because they care! We all get sick of websites throwing around empty promises about what you will be receiving, and why they are better than competitors. SWATcash locks it down with superior payouts, unbeatable bonuses and a user community that can’t be beat.

Jimvesting gives SWATcash a 5-out-of-5 rating

On January 14th, 2008, SWATcash unveiled a brand new template without releasing any previous indications there would be such a major upgrade. While the old layout wasn’t the worst, it was certainly cluttered. As they have upgraded their look, I have upgraded them from a 4 to a 5 in my ratings system. Now, everything is easy to read and the template gets a 5/5 on cleanliness and professional appeal.

The best part of SWATcash without question is their forum. While many other GPT offer support forums with minor contests running occasionally, swatcommunity.com offers monthly contests worth $1000s and a lot of helpful content. If you are going to be a member at SWATcash, you are going to want to join the forums to maximize your payment. I know I did.

One of the things I like about SWATcash is that they pay the highest percentage of earnings in the business. You will notice first that they propose $1 per “free offer” whereas other gpts offer only $0.50. But all of their credit-card offers provide more revenue as well. Taking “eBay” as an example, Treasure Trooper pays $6 and Cash Crate pays $8, but SWATcash currently offers a $10 payout! Read the rest of this entry »

CashCrate is a professional GPT website that has been thriving for the past three years of operation. I was one of the first members at this website, and since the beginning it has been a reliable source of cash flow. Sure, they may not have the frills offered by the likes of TreasureTrooper or SWATcash, but with their clean-and-simple layout and high payout ratios, CashCrate is a name you can trust.

CashCrate is nothing special, and this remains a part of their charm. While other websites promise to get you involved in contests that require a lot of your time, CashCrate is their in the background updating offers and making you money. Their main campaign promises “up to 75% payout ratios,” which we know to be above average. Currently, only check payments are accepted, which is a big downside for many people. But with a low $10 minimum, it’s easy to get paid. Some previous payouts:

As an alternative to what I call a “game” (such as a treasure hunt), CashCrate offers a point-based rewards system. By collecting “points,” you can redeem them for rewards in the “prize shop” for things like gift cards and iPods! There are a variety of ways to earn points too. A percentage of every cash offer gets you points, and you can do offers for points exclusively if you choose. I don’t know the conversion ratio of points-to-money, but it doesn’t seem very good.

Treasure Trooper used to be the king of GPT (get paid to) websites on the internet. Over the last two years, they have lost a major share in the market to competing businesses due to a supreme lack of bonuses and incentives. If you want to be paid, rest assured with Treasure Trooper, but if you are trying to “make a living off GPT,” (as they claim you can), you need to look elsewhere.

A lot of people give me grief over my apparent disdain toward the self-proclaimed “#1 GPT service,” yet everything that they do has begun to irritate me. Now that I have seen that the grass is greener with other GPT sites like CashCrate, SWATcash and InboxDollars, looking at Treasure Trooper is a slap in the face. Why? Treasure Trooper is stealing your money!

Stealing money? Let me explain. GPT websites function by giving clients incentivized offers and taking a cut from the profit. In the case of Treasure Trooper, they have manufactured a way to take an enlarged cut and give NONE of it back to the members. Websites like SWATcash give back money in the tens of thousands every month, the best Treasure Trooper has gotten up to is a $25 gift card to Red Lobster. Here’s another example. December 2007, Treasure Trooper announced that a “last member to post” contest winner was announced, claiming a $5 prize; yet the same contest at SWATcash offers a $1000 prize to the eventual winner!

Before I get too far ahead of myself, let me back it up by saying that I have indeed earned money with Treasure Trooper, almost $300 to be exact. They do an excellent job of involving members Read the rest of this entry »
