Earning Passes - Part 3

Time to wrap up my three part pass earning guide. This post will be discussing web sites that allow you to earn money for doing simple tasks.

How do these sites work?

These sites work by having you complete tasks and offers, for which they reward you with a small amount of points you can exchange for real prizes - including money and prepaid game cards.

Common tasks include answering surveys, watching videos and completing sponsorship offers but all this really varies from website to website.

Why use them?

A lot of these websites are very trustworthy and have great track records. They're much more likely to reward you than Howrse's own SponsorPay offers. These sites are secure, pay well, and make it easy to earn rewards.

What are the drawbacks?

Like any online offers, sometimes these websites don't reward as promised. Some take a while to reward, and others may intentionally make it difficult to complete offers. It all comes down to what site you're using and how carefully you're following the offer instructions.

Are they safe?

Some are safe, and others are not. I'll be discussing two sites I know are safe, but if you want to know about any others feel free to ask me specifically. I'll be happy to help. Alternatively, you can also look up reviews.

What sites should I use?

I'm glad you asked! I'll show you my two favorites and give you some pros and cons.

Swagbucks - This is probably the premier website for earning rewards. Swagbucks has been around a long time and they're very trustworthy and reliable. This site offers many different ways to earn rewards - including videos, surveys, polls, flash games and special codes you can redeem for points.

I personally suggest this website to Howrse players because they have a great rewards shop that not only allows you to transfer your points to Paypal, but you can also buy Zeevex giftcards that you can use to purchase passes. This is great for users who don't have access to Paypal.

You can easily earn a dollar a day on here, but even at less than that you should still be able to afford some passes once or twice a month. It doesn't take much time or effort at all.

GiftHulk - Gifthulk is basically a Swagbucks knockoff. This site is newer, but it works almost identically to Swagbucks. You can complete offers in exchange for points. This site doesn't have as many offers as Swagbucks, but their videos offers do pay more.

One downside to Gifthulk is that they have a rather limited reward shop. You can transfer your points to Paypal but you cannot buy any gamecards that are compatible with Howrse.



Disclaimer - If you choose to use either of these sites, please practice common sense when completing offers. Remember that offsite partnership offers may not be safe or secure and some may be phishing for your personal information. When in doubt, always play it safe! If you're concerned, stick to onsite offers like videos and polls.

If you need help or have questions please don't hesitate to ask. I'm happy to help.
