bing Rewards You For Searching

If you live in the United States, are you using bing yet to earn Amazon Gift cards, Redbox movie/game rentals or even Xbox Live Microsoft points? It's so easy you should be. It's FREE and you don't even have to download a tool bar!

Just sign up with bing using your facebook or microsoft account and start earning credits for searching the web. You can do 30 searches a day that will give you 15 credits, plus there's always another credit or two you can earn by doing their "daily offers" which usually consists of clicking on the link they provide and that's it.

I like how easy it is to see everything at a glance. In the image below, it shows I have 219 credits, that I am at Gold level and that I still need to do a few more searches today to complete my 15 credits. The little arrows to either side of that take you to other info about your account.

I've been a member of bing rewards since May 2011. I joined, but then kept forgetting to do the searches so I missed out on a lot of rewards. It wasn't until almost a year later that I started participating regularly and I'm glad I did.  Every little bit helps and when it's something that you normally do anyway, it just crazy not to.

Here's some of my order history and as you can see, it takes about a month to earn $5 Amazon, which is what I always redeem my credits for:

 A month may seem like a long time to earn $5, but it's money you are earning doing what you normally do anyway. At least get $5 for it. :) If you save up for the Amazon cards, your balance just keeps adding up in your Amazon account and never expires.

Speaking of expiring, if you don't earn a credit for 180 days, your credits will expire. As with all site earnings, cash them out as soon as you can because they can always change the terms or close the program. Many of us have learned that the hard way. :(

Requirements:

Be a United States resident

5 members are allowed per household

To Claim Rewards:

Provide your REAL first and last names

Provide your REAL mailing address

Provide your REAL working phone number

Provide your email address

 There are a lot of different things you can redeem your credits for as shown here:

You can either shop for Gift Cards you want or enter some credits to win a prize. The "win" section changes so keep checking it if you want to use your credits to try to win something.  Right now you can enter to win a Nokia Lumia 1020 phone or Xbox 360 Prize packs: Madden NFL 25 or Splinter Cell Blacklist. You can also donate your points if you wish and there are a few choices of charities or you can help your school win a Surface RT bundle. 

I have always used my credits for Amazon. They have $3 and $5 Amazon cards that you receive via email. Last redemption a couple weeks ago arrived in less than a few hours. I don't believe I've ever had to wait more than a day to receive my reward. :)

Referral system:

You can earn 10 credits per referral up to 100 credits. So, the system only allows up to 10 referrals per member. It's not a great referral program at all, so don't get into it for building referrals. I hardly ever advertise it, so I don't have any referrals under me. If you would like to join with my referral link just click on the bing images at the top or bottom of this post.  ***Remember, 5 members per household are allowed and they must use their real information to redeem rewards.***

A couple of features I do like with the program are that you can set a reward as a goal, and there is also a little bar graph below each reward to show you how far along you are in being able to redeem it. The image below shows I have set the $5 Amazon as my goal and am just under half-way there. Since I am at Gold level, I also get a 50 credit discount. It's normally 525 credits.

If you want to take a glance at more items in your account, just click on the
icon in the top right corner of any bing page next to your name and credit counter. There you can look at everything to do with your account, change settings etc. If you click on the "Rewards" on the left black bar your page will look like this:

It shows a wealth of information and even has the share buttons for Facebook and Twitter for an easy way to share your referral link. You can also explore other areas of your account very easily. It's a very user friendly design!

If you are already receiving rewards from using bing for searches, you know how simple it is. If not, give it a try, it's not like you have to put forth any real effort since you most likely search more than 30 items in a day anyway so you might as well get something for it. I use Firefox as my browser and it works just fine. It used to not work with anything but IE, but now it works with Chrome and Firefox too. Just sign into your microsoft account or log in with facebook and start earning.  Since you don't need to install a toolbar, you can just use it to get your credits for the day and then go back to your normal browser if you wish. Maybe one day the other browsers will catch on and allow us to earn through them too.  Happy searching!

SUPERPOINTS ROCKS!!! (NO LONGER)

As of 11/7/12 SuperPoints closed up shop and gave ZERO NOTICE to its members. See new post: SUPERPOINTS becomes SUPERFAILURE

SuperPoints has quickly become one of my top favorite ways to earn money online.  It's an invite only website, so to join, you need a referral link. I've got several on this blog. Some are from myself and some are from my referral's. I believe THIS is the site to really focus on because in the long run, this will give you the most residual income.  I'll explain how to do this further down the page.

If you've heard about SuperPoints, then you've probably heard/read people talking about the SuperLucky Button. The SuperLucky Button is what makes this site different than SwagBucks, ZoomBucks or Irazoo or any other site similar to these.  With the other sites you can use Searches to win "bucks" or "points".  With SuperPoints, you can win random points by clicking or "spinning" the SuperLucky Button. :)  It's fun and easy, fast to do every day and you never know how much you are going to win.  You could win anywhere from 1 SuperPoint to 300 every time you click/spin! (you'll get some 0's but keep clicking!)

You also win SuperPoints in your email every day, sometimes even twice a day! The most I've won so far in an email was 75 SuperPoints and that was awesome!  So, if you join, make sure you check your email for SuperPoints Lucky mails, you can win up to 450 in an email! The points won in an email and on the SuperLucky Button are completely random too, in case you were wondering.


Other ways to earn points are by doing: 

• special offers 
• surveys 
• watch videos
• tasks
• Survey invite in your emails too, so watch for those! 
• OH and every Thursday at approximately 9am CST, they host a SuperPoints Twitter Trivia where they give away points to the winners!  Sometimes it's random trivia, sometimes it's SuperPoints trivia, sometimes it's Riddles......lots of fun! They also have contests throughout the year where we can win even more points too! They like interacting with their members and that means a lot!

***When you first join, make sure you fill out your complete profile and confirm your email! That will bring you to Basic member level and you will get 30 spins a day on the SuperLuckyButton instead of 5! Very important as that is 25 more spins and chances to win points which means more $$$!


There are 4 member levels and with each level comes more perks!

1. None = 0 referrals and not able to cash out (to move to Basic Confirm Email and Complete your Profile! That's all you have to do :)
2. Basic = 0 referrals/redeem at 2500 points/30 clicks a day on SuperLuckyButton
3. Gold =  2 referrals/redeem at 1000 points/50 clicks a day on SuperLuckyButton get matching wins from your referrals on their button wins and when they take SuperPoint email surveys!
4. Platinum = 5 referrals/redeem at 500 points/100 clicks a day on SuperLuckyButton and get matching wins from your referrals on their button wins and when they take SuperPoint email surveys!

So, you see, it pays to get referrals and all they have to do is click the button! So easy!  It is one of the best things about SuperPoints! Other sites have a limit as to how much you get from referrals, but SuperPoints doesn't. You get matching points forever! This is why I believe it is the best site to focus on for long term residual income! :)

One of the other things I really like about SuperPoints is that even if someone signs up under you and they don't do anything else but confirm email and fill out their basic profile, it still helps you, even if they don't ever participate! Once you get 2 Basic members under you, you start reaping the benefits because you then become a Gold Member and get 50 clicks a day and can cash out sooner! As you can see above, once you get to Platinum, all the better! I have 5 under me presently, but only TWO participate, but at least I can still cash out sooner and get 100 clicks a day!

***I want to help out my referrals, because I believe in helping those who've helped me. So, for every referral that participates regularly, and by that I just mean clicks their SuperLuckyButton DAILY, I will help promote their referral link. This also goes for their direct referrals. So, I will help you get to Platinum level by tweeting your referral link and also putting it on this blog!***

If anyone would like to sign up, here are a couple of my referral's who participate daily:

Join my referral OneLifesDream today!  Platinum now! :)
Join my referral 96tiger still needs people under him to reach Platinum

If you sign up under myself or my referral's, for every day that you participate and click that button, I will promote your link here and on Twitter! I really do believe in helping those who help me and my referrals!

When it comes to redeeming points, they couldn't make it easier! 

• 500 points =$5 in Gift cards or PayPal cash! 
• 1000 points = $10 in Gift cards or PayPal cash!
• 2500 points = $25 in Gift cards or PayPal cash and so on!

The amount of points stays the same no matter what you get, unlike other sites that have different amounts for everything. If you want, you can also save up your points for electronics such as an iphone, ipod, Kindle, laptop,  Nintendo Wii, XBox 360 or a PS3! Great selection of rewards for everyone! 

Every weekend you can redeem your points if your redemption threshold has been met and they pay out every Monday or Tuesday, so you aren't waiting weeks or even months for your rewards. :)

If you would like to join my team today, please sign up here or under one of my referral's above.

If you have any questions about SuperPoints please feel free to leave comments below or contact me by Twitter @MyIncomeHelper.  Please do not leave referral links here, contact me to add you to the blog and Twitter feed if you are one of my direct referrals or their referrals so I can help you get to Platinum! Referral links left in the comment section will be removed.
