FAQ-
How does it work?
You view websites in 30 second sessions via the "Surf Ads" page. Once the 30 seconds is up, you'll either get a green tick sign or a red 'X'. The green tick sign means you've earned $0.01 as a normal member and $0.015 as premium member for the visit and the 'X' means you have not earned money for the visit. You'll get red X's when you have more than one website from the "Surf Ads" page open. When this happens, you get no credit.
Can other people in my household join?
They must have a valid unique e-mail address and valid unique Alertpay address/account to register with our program, but can't be referal of each other. As far as cheating goes, our software detects users who create fictitious accounts and use the same computer so if someone else in your household wants to join and will legitimately use their account; you shouldn't be flagged for abuse.
Can I have more than one account?
No. There is no need to maintain more than one account. If you've lost your login information, you can request to have it sent to your e-mail address. If you are caught with more then one account open (we have a very strict auditing process before payments are sent) your account(s) will be terminated, your ip address(es) will be banned and you will not receive any earnings.
My network, school or ISP all use the same or randomly used IP addresses, can I join?
Yes, this is fine. The same general rule applies from the previous question. No referal between this accounts also valid.
How much money can I make?
We pay you $0.01 for each website you visit and $0.005 for each website your referrals visit. As premium member $0.015 for each website you visit and $0.010 prices can vary fir different sites ..for each website your referrals visit. There is no limit in the amount of websites you visit or referrals that you obtain. Your earning possibilities are virtually endless.
How do I refer others?
Use your unique referral code found within the user area "My Stats".
How can I cancel my account?
Inactive accounts are automatically cancelled after certain time.
Why I have to click twice to see the green tick?
Check your antivirus, antispyware/adware programs, your browser settings for cookies and java script acceptance. If this doesn't work, try cleaning your cache or reboot your computer.
Why I have not received my welcome email or password request?
You need to make sure that mail from the domain is not being blocked, Try adding "domain " to your address book.
I can't see any ads!
If you see no ad links on the "Surf Ads" page but you DO see stats on the right hand side then you need to disable all antivirus and antispyware/adware programs. If this doesn't work, try cleaning your cache, temp files, cookies, etc. If you're still having problems after all of that, try changing or updating your browser.
My stats aren't updating!
This is either because your browser is saving the page in it's cache or you're not waiting for the dollar sign to appear after the timer is complete. Try cleaning your cache, temp files, cookies, etc. If you're still having problems after all of that, try changing or updating your browser.
I keep getting "Invalid verification code entered." when I try to register or login!
First, make sure you are correctly typing in the verification code. If you are typing in the correct code and still having problems then it's something to do with your browser caching the previously used session image. Try cleaning your cache, temp files, cookies, etc. If you're still having problems after all of that, try changing or updating your browser.
How often are the statistics updated?
Stats are updated immediately.
How do I get paid?
If you have at least $5.00 accumulated, you can click on your account balance within your stats area and it will submit your request. Currently, we only make payments via Alertpay. We will soon be using other methods of payment.
When do I get paid?
You can request for payment once you're account balance is equal to the amount which is required to cashout . Your payment will be processed and issued via Alertpay or paypal within TOS. You can only request one payment at the time.
What is Alertpay?
Alertpay is the payment processing solution that we use to pay members. Your Alertpay address is the e-mail address you use to register with Alertpay. You can get a free Alertpay account at http://Alertpay.com.
Why did I get paid less then what I was owed?
If you have a business account with Alertpay, they charge a 2.9% transfer fee plus an additional $0.30 base fee when you receive funds.
Why did my account got suspended?
If you have used an autoclicker, automated tools to browse or any other mechanics/software to login and make ilegal money inside the site. Lying about accounts origin also gets the account to be banned. After 15 days of inactivity, the account may be deleted in order to maintain the database clean and update.
i've Joined a Site and Clicked all the ads at once but im getting these errors and I'm not getting paid.
You can only view ads one at a time. You Click and view one ad then once the time is up close the ad (if you dont have to click a button to be credited then just close the window) and click another.
Why aren't my ads aren't showing up when I click on them?
Your Ad Blocker Might be preventing them from appearing, Either change your Ad-Blockers settings or hold shift when click the ads.
Ive viewed an ad for the amount of time it said, but im still not getting paid!
Some sites require you to click something after the time your suppose to view it for is up, Best to check each site. Also you may have tried to view more then one ad at a time.
Viewing ads is boring but I need to money!
Do something while your waiting, read a book or whatever or if you want you can play A game then press Alt+Tab to swap between game and the PTC sites. It's like less then 30 seconds per ad so it won't be to hard to occupy yourself while you want.
Are these links your refferal Sites?
Yes, but you lose no money whatsoever and you actually can gain an extra 50% of whatever you earn just by being my referral.
How can I make more money?
Once you join you will get a referral link (each site has it in a different spot) get your friends, family, co-workers and others to click the link and join up, everytime they visit an ad (if they joined via your refferal link) you will get money as well! Some sites offer other ways to earn like completing surveys etc.. which you could try also.
I click an ad then close it straight after, why aren't I getting paid?
You need to view it for a certain amount of time, also some sites require you to click something (not actually part of the ad) before you can get paid.
Are these sites safe?
Most of them are, I haven't had a problem yet but just in-case have your anti-virus and other software up-to-date and ready.
Is there any other example of a crediable company using this sort of ad clicking system?
Yes, take Google for example, say you type in cheese and press enter you will notice some sponsored links to the right and above your search results, although you don't get paid to view these ads everytime someone visits one of google's sponsored site the ad sponsor pays google a certain amount of money, this is sort of like the same thing except you are getting paid a small amount to view these ads. This is based on the PPC(PTC) System.
How can I get more ad links to click?
Certain times of the day can offer more ads then others, also many ads "expire" after a certain time period so best to check every hour or so.
I dont understand what the site is telling me or how to use it!
Each site should have its on FAQ section but you don't have to join every site listed, I'll try my best to make sure each site is user friendly.
Does it cost me anything to join up with these sites?
The sites I provide on this site will not cost you anything to join, some sites offer "upgrades" of sorts for a fee but you don't have to pay to join.
Do I have to buy anything from an ad within a site to get paid?
No, you just view the ad then once you've viewed it for the time it wants you to view it for you can just close it (some sites require you to click something else before closing)
Does paypal cost me anything?
If you join up with a personal account it does not cost you anything to join or to send/receive payments.
Why do some sites say they will pay $0.01 per click and others say $0.001, is this a scam?
Here's a few examples of ad values
$0.005 x 2 = $0.01
$0.001 x 10 = $0.01
$0.0025 x 4 = $0.01
Many sites have varying values they will pay you per click and just because a site offers a lower value doesn't make it a scam (it actually makes it more sustainable). Although if a site pays $0.001 per ad and they only ever have 3 ads daily then common sense usually kicks in and tells you the site isn't worth it.
WHY SHOULD I DO THIS?
You don't have to, i'll try to give you as much information and help as possible but if your still not convinced that's fine, good luck to you in whatever you decide.
What's PTC and PPC?
PTC is short for Paid to Click and PPC is short for Pay per Click.
I've clicked some ads then later on when I got to click them it doesnt credit me, why?
Most ads you can only click once every 24 hours, it best to log out everytime your done instead of staying logged in so your ad availible to be clicked can be refreshed, also deleting your cookies can help.
Why do I have to enter a security code to log in on some sites? is this so they can track me down?
No, some people use programs to log in and click ads for them and this isn't allowed, these programs can't read the security code and if they can't enter it they can't log in, basically it's to make sure only people are logging in and viewing ads.
Whats the minimum pay-out and how does it affect me and getting paid?
Most sites would like you to view the ads that they are paying you to view so they created the "minimum payout", what it is basically is you have to have a certain amount of money in your account to be able to able to use it for other things (like donating it to the server). For example if a site has a minimum pay-out of $7 then you must have at least $7 in your account before they will pay you to Paypal etc... some sites minimum pay-out will be high and others will be low, while on rare occassions there will be no minimum pay-out at all.
Ive seen you on the forums and a few people seem to give you crap about this.
Not everyone is 100% trusting I can easily understand why but ill try to help you as much as possible. A lot of it is because people believe in myths or have misconceptions which simply aren't true.
Can I trust paypal with my personal information?
Yes, you can. The majority of the time its only there for thing such as credit card transactions etc... and they probaly won't contact you for anything, just make sure you have your phishing filter on in case you end up visiting a fake site someone has made to scam your paypal details.

How long does it take to cash-out/How much can I earn in a week?
This is always an iffy question to answer and it's usually asked by impatient lazy people. I believe there are 2 broad factors that affect how long it will take. The first is attitude, if you have the right attitude towards understanding how PTC's work and ask for help you're already doing very well. The second one are the general PTC factors which include things like How many ads you click daily and what the minimum cash-out is on the site.
I don't live in the United states, can do I this also?
Most PTC sites accept international members.
You can get money so much faster by getting a real job and donating via a credit card
Not all of us can donate real money to the server and im pretty sure a lot of us aren't allowed to use a credit card to donate to an online game, this is just an alternative people can try if they don't have too many options.
It's impossible to cash-out unless you have referrals!
No, it's not. It really depends on the site your with, It might be a bit slower but you can cash-out even without referrals.
What is a referral?
When you join a site you get what is known as a referral link. If you get other people to join the site via your referral link they become your referral. Each time a referral clicks an ad you also get paid some money (the referral still gets paid from clicking the ad, you just get a bonus for referring them). Referrals are not needed to be able to earn money fast on most sites but they do make things easier.
Hope I Have Helped ...
