Question: What are the types of surveys I can complete?
Answer: There are 7 different categories of surveys/offers, which can be completed for points:
100% Free These offers are 100% free. You fill in information, your e-mail address and such, and get credit. The majoritty of these are worth a small amount of points but they are plentiful and well worth it.
Credit Card Required These offers require a credit card. Some of the surveys dont cost anything, others cost a small trial-fee of about $2.95 or so. I strongly suggest that you read the ToS on each of the websites to avoid fees. Every one of them is a subscription, and if you dont cancel then you WILL be billed. Most offers are very easy to cancel, just read everything. These offers are generally worth a lot of points and are well worth signing up for.
Purchase Required - These offers you must use a credit card or check, to pay for things. You buy things and you get credit. Read the ToS on each site to avoid future billing. These are worth a LOT of points and very well worth it.
Cell Phone Required Cell phone offers are what they say. You need a cell phone with a major carrier to do these offers. MOST of them cost you money, so read the ToS of each one very carefully
Free But May Not Credit Always These surveys are complete free to signup to and complete. However, the chances of them getting approved is less likely than other categories of surveys.
Financial These are surveys such as credit card applications or load applications where you can gain those things. Worth many points, read the ToS very carefully.
Daily Offers These surveys are completely free to signup to and complete. You may only complete Daily Offers once a day and receive credit for them once a day.
