Cash Crate
Does anyone know much about Cash Crate? I tried it out today and am still trying to make up my mind about it. My time was divided, as usual, but I estimate that I spent around 45 minutes earning $15. That seems like a good return on my time, and I think I could do better with a little practice.
Basically, it’s a site that collects various offers for surveys, mailing lists, credit cards, etc and pays you a portion of what they make when you sign up. Credit card offers and cash advance applications pay the best but I skipped those for obvious reasons.
I have tried doing surveys for $$ in the past but I rarely fit the desired demographic group and spent all my time looking for the right survey, making little or no money. However, Cash Crate makes it easy to find suitable offers and keeps a running total for you right at the top of the screen. Even though many of the offers I did were less than $1, it was encouraging to see how quickly they added up.
I use a separate email addy especially for junk mail so that all the offers I’m signing up for don’t drown my regular email, and we don’t mind junk mail in the old-fashioned mailbox. The postal carrier may feel differently; maybe I should apologize to her. 
So tell me; have you ever tried Cash Crate? What did you think? Did you stick with it?
If you’ve never tried it and your curiosity is piqued, please consider using one of my links above. You’ll add a bit to my earnings for the day and help confirm my tentatively positive opinion.

Hey I have been wanting to try it.. I think if you refer me it helps you right? So let me know if you want to refer me and then I will sign up. I have only heard good things about it!
Yes, I’ll make a bit if you decide to join through one of my links. I edited the post to make that clear. Thanks for asking - I hope you make some $.
My friend has been using Cash Crate for a few months. It takes a bit to get paid, since you get paid a month after the last day of the month you earn the money in, but they are a legitimate company. Good luck!
Hello!
I have done cash crate and they did pay, so for that I can say they are legit. But, the problem I had was that they only paid me for small amounts. I did about three of the higher paying ones ($8.00 & up) but did not get paid for them. When I contacted them by email they asked me for the proof I had done them which I provided. (Emails from the companies that said I had done the sign ups.) Then cash crate contacted me and told me they were checking into it but I never heard from them again even after trying to contact them several times. Maybe it just happened to me.
Blessings.
HI Kim,
I am wondering if you still think that this is a good thing. It looks good, but I am always so skeptical. Did you get more junk email after signing up? Did you find that they paid you for big things, or just the smaller ones? Tahnks!!
