Along with saving money, I always keep my eye out for ways that I can earn a little extra money also. Over the next couple of weeks, I plan on introducing you to some of my favorite methods.
InboxDollars
There are several companies that will pay you to read your e-mails. Last week, I let you know about MyPoints, and now we're going to talk about InboxDollars.
What is InboxDollars?
Basically, they are a site that allows you to earn extra cash for various activities (see below). You get a $5 bonus when you sign up, and you will need to reach a $30 balance to cash out.
How Do You Earn Money with InboxDollars?
- Read e-mails – you earn several cents per e-mail just for clicking on the periodic e-mails that InboxDollars sends
- Surveys – $0.50 for every completed survey - I find that many of the other survey sites pay more
- Offers – some of the e-mails include offers…like sign up for such and such and earn x dollars – depending on what it is, I don’t usually sign up
- Games – you can earn points when you play their games – I’ve never done this
- Shopping – you can earn points when you shop through the InboxDollars site – I’ve never done this, because using the cash-back sites seems a better deal.
How Do You Join?
- Visit InboxDollarsto register. You will get a $5 bonus in your account for registering.
- You will receive an e-mail from InboxDollars. Click to validate your e-mail address and you're ready to go.
Please Note:
If you want to avoid extra e-mail in your personal account, just create a new e-mail address just for offers like this (or create a filter in Outlook or Gmail so the e-mails go to their own folder). I usually get a couple of e-mails per day.
Also, if you were formerly a member of SendEarnings, they are closing the SendEarnings site to focus on their sister site, InboxDollars. You have until 6/23/20 to transfer any existing earnings to InboxDollars, and the SendEarnings site will close permanently on 7/2/20.
