All Get Paid to Surf
"GPTS" programs are not the same. Some may pay better than
others, but may be too buggy to use, or too annoying. Some require just a
little of your monitor space, some require you to give up very little
personal information, a few let you
choose your favorite charity or theirs, and referral rates vary.
GPTS: Honest Info has taken each factor into consideration, and
rated each of the programs below.
You may scroll through the
listing, which is sorted by the best to the worst rated programs, or click on an
alphabetical listing, below, to take you directly to that program.

Paybar
Rating: 64% $$$$$$
-
Paybar™ takes up little space on
your screen, respects your privacy by only requiring the
minimum information needed to cut your checks, has almost
no bugs (this program will keep chugging along when the rest are
crashing and burning), outstanding customer service (all email's are answered in
person by the founder, William) and an interesting story (see an
article comparing them to Alltrade). Paybar has also contracted
with Paypal so that you can immediately receive your money through email. In
fact, the only downsides to Paybar are that it requires a small
download, and the maximum they'll pay per month is currently $9.00,
unless you've referred others. But the referral levels only go
two deep.
Payout: .60/1000 ads (about .10/hr) Max:
15,000 ads/month: $9.00
Referrals: .15/1000, .05/1000

GoToWorld's banner docks nicely with
AOL, Earthlink, and Internet Explorer. Plus, it opens
automatically (no logging in or remembering to start it
manually). However, it takes up the entire width of the
monitor. Their payout is very competitive, at .40/hr, and their
referral payouts are interesting: you get paid more for indirect
referrals, although these only go three deep. There is a
150kb download, which is very small, but the install program seems
buggy. Numerous attempts were made to install the program on all
of the platforms listed above, before it finally installed
successfully. If it weren't for this problem, this company would
have rated much better, because once it is up and running its quite
good.

aAlladvantage.com was one of the
first programs offering this kind of opportunity. Now, with over 4
million members they're also the largest get paid for surfing
program. This really speaks for them and it shows how profitable
these programs have gotten.
You get $ 0.50 per hour from Alladvantage.com, with the max
you can earn being 25 hrs/month and you have to get at least $ 20
before they send you your check. If you only earn money for
yourself, it can take a while, but fortunately there are
referrals. So you will get money for their surfing even if you are
not online. And your friends can refer their friends and so
on, up to 5 levels. If you have maybe about 20 direct
referrals it should be no problem for you to get the $ 20 in a
month.
Payout: .50/hr Max: 25 hours/month

Rating: 51% $$$$$

ClickDough's referral level is very
good, going down eight levels. Their payout, at 50% of the ad
revenue they generate (which they estimate to be about .18
per hour) is not bad either, especially since there is no maximum.
However, if you don't keep
a pretty close eye on the banner it'll ask if you want to continue
using it, and if you miss that announcement you'll be logged
out. Sometimes after being
logged out its nearly impossible to log back in. Plus, every time
a new ad pops up, the program grabs control of your computer, and
prevents you from typing or going to another web page.
Payout: 50% of ad revenue (about
.18/hr) Max: No maximum
Referrals: 20%, 10%, 5%, 5%, 5%, 5%, 5%, 5% Limited to

Ignifuge
Rating: Not yet available
This program is totally different but not less
interesting. It is unique of its kind and I love it. The system is
that simple: Every time you visit the Homepage of Ignifuge.com you
get paid. You can only do ten visits per day, 300 a month. For every
ten visits you get $ 0.50. They propose to set Ignifuge.com as your
browser start page and I think that is is a really good idea. Then
it is so easy to make money. You just must sign up for this program
and make sure all your friends do so, too. The referral rate is
really good. Have a look at the page's calculator to see how much
money you can make.
Payout: .50/day Max: No maximum
Referrals: .20, .10, .10, .10

WinDough
rating: 38% $$$$

WinDough takes up a fairly
large amount of screen space (over 500 x 150 pixels), as well as being
extremely buggy, and offering only to give prizes based on "EGP's"
- or Electronic Game Pieces, which they claim will appear in their
banner every so often, and which the user has somewhere around 30
seconds to click on to claim. Their site does display
the Trust-e banner, which is a plus.
