Categories of Interest

What are these tick boxes for in my user profile?
These allow us to target the email ads that we send out. Three categories we will address below, but we ask you to carefully consider the options you select.

Contest Ads - These are either ads about contests, or, they are ads where we will pay a set number of visitors a larger than normal reward for visiting the advertiser's site. Full details are given in each Contest email.

Point Ads - allow you to share in AdPaid's profits. The value of the points is calculated at the end of each month, based on our results. Points are then converted to cash, and that cash amount is added to your account. If you wish to receive Point Ads please tick the "Point Ads" box in your user info page.

Search Ads - these advertise search sites that can be used to find just about anything you like. "no one" is required to search, no one is required to do anything other than properly Visit the advertisers' websites. If you would like to get search ads, tick mark the "Search Ads" box in your user info page. If you would prefer not to receive them (opt-out), then un-tick the box.

Referral Questions

Can I earn extra rewards for referring other people to AdPaid.com?
Yes! When you refer other people to our program, you will receive a commission based on their earnings.

How can I refer other members?
You may place a link or banner with your referral url to AdPaid.com on your web site. You may add your referral url to your email signature. You can give out flyers or advertise in any way you wish except for spamming.

What is my referral link?
Your personal referral link can be found in your personal "Referral Center" page.

Are my referral earnings working?
Yes, it takes several paid emails received by members to have referral earnings show up, even for members that have 100's of people in their downline. Referral earnings are displayed once a referred member has earned their referring member at least 1 full cent. Technically a member with 100 referrals that have each earned him/her 1/2 cent has earned $0.50 but their earnings will not be shown until an individual member has earned them 1 full cent.
