Treasure Trooper Payments

Filed Under DIY (Do It Yourself), Business

Looking at log stats, I seem to be getting alot of hits about Treasure Trooper. Kind of odd, cause I'm not authority on the subject. Honestly, what is most surprising is that the "get paid to…" junkmail offers you get all the time are true. You do get paid. What's cool about Treasure Trooper though, is the offers are collected into one place, so you don't have to search through tons of spam to find the money. Here is my proof that I did get paid:

Proof that I got paid from completing offers from Treasure Trooper

$16 isn't much, but all I did was the bare minimum of work, just to make sure the system wasn't a scam, and you do get paid. What also holds true, is that you can make $422 in a few hours if you have a credit card. As of this writing, I’ve made $46. I’ve purposely done the lower paying offers first, because they approve quickly. I wanted to write this article from experience.

Tricks of the Trade

Browser: You should clear your browser cache before doing each offer. These sites place cookies to track you, and might ignore the fact you've completed an offer. Slimbrowser has a quick toolbar button that clears your cache, cookies, history right on the toolbar. Quite handy.
Email: Sign up for the “iWon” email account first!!! I really can’t stress that enough. There’s 200 offers on the site, and iWon will be close to the top. You get fifty cents for it. I know, big deal, and you probably don’t need another email account. But, by signing up for all these offers, the companies flood your email with junk. With this new email account, you can send all the junk there, instead of your primary email accounts.
Shell Game: To combat some of the boredom of clicking “NO” fifty times on a survey, Treasure Trooper has a little game used as an incentive. When you finish one of the offers, you play a shell game to find a pearls and coins. Collect enough, and trade them in for pieces of a treasure map. The point of this is to have special “Treasure Hunts” to win money, on top of what you’ve already made. It sounds stupid, but you’ve already been paid for the offer, so you’ve got nothing to loose collecting treasure. It also makes you part of the community feeling.
Forum: Honestly, this was what prompted me to not only join the site, but write this article and tell others about it. It’s just like the comic community itself, and it goes a long way to building up your confidence to know that you’re not alone, or being scammed.
Affiliates: Yeah, they have an affiliate program. However, the commission isn’t going to make much difference. Unless you’re one of those people who just love to go around gathering people to join. For me, affilates made me a whole dollar. I don’t care if you sign up or not. In comics, we’re lucky though. Even $1 can buy you an advertisement for a week.

Caveats

Residence: It helps to be a resident of the USA due to legal reasons no-one cares about. There are some that can be done internationally, but it’s beyond the scope of this article to point them out.
Credit Card: A card is not required. The offers where you can make serious money, like $15-150 will require you to verify with a credit card, and probably pay for whatever they’re selling. You get paid back for it when you CANCEL the service before the trial date expires. (For example, you sign up for $10 internet service, and cancel it before the trial period runs out. It doesn’t matter if you need the service or not. Sign up, they pay you $20 just for checking out the service).
Trial Offers: The quick money is offers for $1. They will approve within 1-48hrs. The big money offers may take days->weeks (until the trial period runs out). For this reason, I recommend not signing up for lots of these at once. You may forget about canceling and get charged, rather than paid.
Payout: Is every 15th of the month, and you must have made $10 before they issue a payment. So, plan your budget accordingly. They can pay by check or automatically through PayPal.

Conclusion
You’ll find that not only are people making money, but they’re actually happy about doing these offers! That was the thing that most surprised me. The typical reaction is to be aggravated by this opportunity. But this community regularly posts their payout checks for all too see. That also blew me away, because most keep that a secret.

Don't think for one minute that this isn't a "job". You will not make a mint with a few mouse clicks and no effort. But $50 a week is all you need. If you haven’t clicked here to sign up already, why did you read this far?
