Is Cashcrate A Scam. Another “Get Paid To” Survey Scam !?!
If you are wondering or maybe just did a google search for “Is cashcrate a scam“.
Well, let me share a little free information and my personal experience!
A while back (a little more than four years ago), I was thinking about how to make some extra money online without much effort and not spending any of my hard-earned money to make money!
I started doing a Yahoo search, (Google wasn’t my main search engine back then), for “easy ways to make money online” and was fortunate enough to come to a blog that shared some different ways to make an online income. Now, I really took the time to read the different tips that the blog author has posted! What really caught my eye was the posting about making money from doing online surveys!
Well to make a real long story short (okay, to really to keep this article shorter), I clicked on the banner that was posted! It took me to the site, I signed up and almost instantly got my “Cashcrate Welcome Email”. Now, I kinda took my sweet time about doing a survey or offer, mainly because I was new to this online stuff. When I finally did a few offers and surveys (just did the free ones), I was amazed at how fast my earning was building up, it didn’t take me long to make payout! Then I started to make more money by recommending (referring) my friends! Unbelievable referrals payouts!
Okay, maybe your wondering, what so special about this article? Well, like I mentioned earlier, that was four almost five years ago, and I have made the $20.00 pay out each and every month since then, quite easily! That kinda makes me a real experienced about the Cashcrate survey site!
Now, don’t get me wrong. If you are looking for a full-time online income, doing surveys and offers may not be the thing for you. Sure won’t make you a millionaire overnight but you can make some good money doing surveys from Cashcrate.
So, if you want to make some extra money without much effort then do like I did and sign up!
Also on a final note…
(1)Cashcrate pays you by check, not by Paypal!
(2)Minimum payout is $20.00 (USA Funds) and if you make payout
by the end of the month, you should get a check around 10 days later (that the average time fom mine).
(3) If you don’t make payout, your earnings will be “carried over” to the next month.
(4) You will lose your Cashcrate account if you do anything fradulent! Read the FAQ’s and TOS and make sure you don’t spam!

Thank you soooooo much! I was wondering how this website works!
Your more than welcome Cutie Pie! Feel free to post anymore questions that you have, I will do my best to help you!
I have to say that this article is one of the more informative ones, especially at the end with your pointers. I think what really sets Cashcrate apart from all the others is the fact that they pay via check and not paypal, as you pointed out. I’m not sure everyone knows that, but it’s pretty awesome.
Thanks for making an informative page on Cashcrate. People really need to know that Cashcrate is once and for all not a scam, but a great way to earn extra income.
so do you have to pay to get an account up?
Hi Nick,
No it is 100% free and doesn’t cost anything to join up.
heyy i know you must of spent a long time writing that .. but are you sure that it isn’t a scam ? I can’t afford to have given all of my personal details & its a scam.
Hi Caitlin,
I’ve been a member with Cashcrate since 2008 and have received a check every month since. I wouldn’t go to the trouble of creating a site like this if it was a scam. Cashcrate has in excess of 2 million members and that wouldn’t be so if it was a scam.
I can certainly understand people’s concerns, but I can honestly say that not every money making opportunity is a scam and Cashcrate is one of the sites that isn’t but ultimately it is up to you to decide to give it a go or not.
thank you but sorry i am still scared,,
I agree with the admin, but understand your apprehensions David. I have been a member of CashCrate since 2009 and have received all of my checks on time. Your social security number or credit card number are never required and there is no fee to sign up and try it out.
cashcrate has 2 million people that signed up, but that doesn’t mean they’re all still active or even did anything. offers will spam and you will get tons of telemarketer calls. if you’re willing to go through the hassle, they do pay though and have the best referral system.
Do you need an active phone? I don’t have a land-line or a cell. My parents do but I don’t, and they don’t want me using theirs unless I have to.
Oh, and could you mail me a link back to this page please. (just look at my username)
Plus, I’ve herd otherwise on different sites about the telemarketers, nobody had any problems and they just got email spam. I think it would at least be wise to make a secondary email just for this service that way it’s a lot easier to separate the Junk from your important files.
P.s.: sorry for the triple post.
Hi there, no you do not need an active phone to signup to Cashcrate and get started although some of the offers will ask for a phone number, how ever in my experience you will get a lot of marketing email as you said and yes it is highly recommended to get a couple of throw away email addresses. You may get one or two letters a month and rarely any phone calls.
It is basically free to send an email for marketers, but it costs them money and time to send out mail and make phone calls so it rarely happens.
That is some good information. Especially about getting a check and not by paypal. I personally would rather have a check.
Have to agree with you, Lauren! Not everyone can set up a paypal account and it is generally much easier to cash a check!
While I am here..sure would like to thank everyone that posted a comment in this “Is Cashcrate A Scam. Another “Get Paid To” Survey Scam !?!” article!
