I tell you, most places that you earn online are just going downhill. I finally earned enough to cash out over at UniqueRewards and I find out that their Paypal is not working and they offer a $50 check, Bitcoin or Payza. To my understanding Payza is under investigation by the federal government and has been indicted. I don't have Bitcoin and if they can pay $50 by check, why can't they pay $20 by check just as easily? I am feeling so frustrated right now.

I'm rather glad I've never heard of this site and never joined it. I'm still waiting to see if Virily will pay me this month. I haven't been working very hard over there anymore until I see a check. I should have reached payout there now. Right now I'm focused on my own blogs that I'm behind on. I just can't get in gear. I've been spending too much time on Twitter.

@bagarad Let us know how it goes. I get caught up on Facebook instead of Twitter. I can waste a tremendous amount of time there.

@bagarad I can get buried in a book so easily. I have several new ones downloaded on my Kindle for Android. I try to read a bit every night before going to bed.

@Shellyann36 The FB site is so slow for me these days I don't want to spend anymore time than I have to there. Today I got buried in another books and almost completely ignored my computer and all social media. I finished the book half an hour ago.

Sites usually have higher limits on check payments because of the processing time and costs associated with cutting and mailing checks. It's definitely frustrating to deal with problems like this, and unfortunately seems to be all too common when it comes to sites to earn from. Hopefully they'll be able to iron out whatever issues they're having with PayPal so you can get paid that way. It's always a shame for the effort to go to waste when things like this happen.

@yukimori I am still skeptical of this. I really wonder if the site is not just going under.

Yes, you are correct Payza is under investigation. This is really frustrating, I suppose you have not reached the $50 necessary to be paid by check.

That's really terrible! I agree, it sounds very fishy. I have PayPal, all free and payoneer, that charges for loading payments. One site uses inly payoneer, so I had no choice but to get my account with payoneer. I have problem since February of not getting a Gcode, and the company insist that they sent my Gcode payment.

@oahuwriter Thanks, but this site does not use Payoneer. It is unfortunate that there are not similar sites such as Paypal.

@oahuwriter I had a similar problem with Skrill. I had x amount of money transferred into the account and they tell me that they need to charge me that much money just to transfer it to my bank account. Very shady.

@Shellyann36 Payoneer is just charging for the transaction. Maybe it's the same as Skrill...check their terms and conditions page to make sure. Good luck.

@shaggin I highly doubt it. After I tried to cash out I did some research and it seems that people have posted problems since December of 2017 and that is when Paypal dropped them. I am not sure how I am going to proceed. I don't really feel like putting in the work that it would take to earn the $50.

@shaggin That is not even for PayPal! That is a check form. Paypal ditched them and no longer works with them.

The only place I spend any time on is here mostly. Although I am starting to really earn some ongoing income from work I did at hubpages years ago. My one main article now has over 100,000 views. I'm also doing a survey that gives points for gift cards and everyone qualifies. My husband's got several cards already from Amazon from them although he never told me about it then. It wasn't until I asked him about the cards coming in the mail that I even knew about it. (edited).

I am not a member of that site. Yes USA is no longer supported for Payza. Bitcoin is very easy. Coinbase is just similiar to PayPal free to sign up and you can link bank account. Bitcoin RECEIVE address is a long ALPHANUMERIC, just copy it from 'Receive' button on your account and use it to receive payments. Most sites/apps that pay CryptoCurrency use Coinbase and Xapo and email address for payments just like PayPal but if they are not using Coinbase/Xapo and ask for Bitcoin address we should provide the long alphanumeric address.
Coinbase is a secure online platform for buying, selling, transferring, and storing digital currency.

it's a bummer there isn't more earning websites online. do you think that the uniquerewards website might be able to fix the problem with being able to pay out through paypal any time soon? that sure looks like a big burdensome emblem by the way.

The nature of the beast unfortunately when it comes to these kinds of sites. I swear they are akin to ponzi schemes in a way, just on a different level. Hopefully MyLot remains above board and can serve as an example for others to follow as to the right way to do it.

@Shellyann36 For whatever it is worth, and I actually think it is worth a lot, I have been hard pressed to find negative posts from members about the site. In other places you did not have to look hard or long to find negative posts from members. Let's hope they stay on top of it, and that the site stays above board. It's never a lot of money, but these sites ARE a lot of fun, and I just want one to stick around. Let it be this one once and for all and I am fine with that.
