"Paid to do" sites

We know there are writing sites and survey sites. There are other sites that offer those things and more choices.
Some offer games, or uploading video content. Some offer reading ads and trying apps. Others offer watching videos, or at least they used to.
I am a member of three sister sites: Swagbucks, Mypoints, and Inbox Dollars. All owned by Prodege. I do not do most of the things on the sites, but I used to watch videos, for a few points or cents.
As of June 1 none of them offer videos, or the watch option for earning anymore.
If you use these sites, you now will not get to earn that way.
I am disappointed, because I count on those "Watch" points to make my goals.
Guess I will just do more surveys. I just cashed out again at Paid Viewpoint.
I do not earn a lot anywhere, but I take what I can get.
I am glad myLot keeps it simple. I can count on it, and see my friends as well.

@GardenGerty I have redeemed there many times but lately they are changing the site and keep having a notice of no surveys available so I will see how that goes

I have heard many people watching videos and playing games to earn. I have never been in to any of those.
And you are right about Mylot. It's simple and fun.

So many things are not international. I am glad myLot is for many countries. I have met a lot of nice, interesting people.

@GardenGerty Yes, some despite being international work better for tier 1 countries. There are many Indians who play games and watch videos to earn. It never interested me.

myLot does not overpromise, and that is a good thing.

I never really did the videos so I won’t miss it but I am sure those that did do them will miss them for sure

I miss them because I could count on 20 points minimum there daily.

If it is too much stress I will not do it.

@GardenGerty - I tried some surveys, I spent time going through questions and at the end "my country did not apply for that survey". After a few failures I decided not to try anymore. This sounds like a scam, you first check the country and then you submit the questions.

Pretty was telling me yesterday that Swagbucks no longer offers watching videos. (Apparently, she used that option a lot.)
I have no idea what other sites she uses.

Yes, I relied on watching videos quite a bit.

@GardenGerty I suggested Pretty look at some of the play to pay apps but she didn't sound interested.

I joined all of those. But as they have went towards surveys more over time I never log in anymore

I do not like that all of them want you to shop all the time. I cannot do that, due to both location and income.

@GardenGerty I have checked a few times when making an order if I could earn swagbucks. They mostly seem to only pay on the high dollar items.

@GardenGerty I found that, and maybe our rural internet isn't the best for videos.

I use at least one site that if they send you a survey you will at least get ten cents. I like it. The kind you describe are so frustrating.

I have tried all of these sites. I don't think they are taking any more members at this time; but you might try Prolific. I have a survey group on Facebook; and we all have made good money there. Good luck.

I probably should at least try. I have had some sites change names or just stop sending me surveys.

@GardenGerty I've probably belonged to 100 different sites over the past 12 years. I only belong to a handful now.

Mylot keeps its efficient payment on schedule. Have you tried ForumCoin? It is good site. It pays on time when you request it.

It is simple and if you are honest here, you do not run the risk of being banned or having your account taken or having money taken back. All problems with SB.

I do not make a lot on myLot. I probably could do more. I get a lot more satisfaction from it though.I relied heavily on watch on SB. and a bit on My Points. I seldom used it on Inbox dollars. As others have said, much of the content is the same.

You can earn from some other countries but not all. I believe you are the first person I have met here from your country. Welcome.
