POUNDS AND PENNIES

Getting Started A guide to the recurring/daily clicks that can be found on the majority of cashback websites to help you get them to track successfully. Also includes other top tips to get you started.

Daily Clicks A list of cashback sites that have daily clicks - going from highest to lowest. Also lets you know how many times you have to visit the cashback site to achieve the total amount from each site. Includes the amount you can earn per year and how long it will take you to reach minimum payment.

Daily Click Routines Three daily click routines i.e. beginner, intermediate & monthly income. I swap and change between these routines, depending on what mood I'm in and how much time I've got to spare. If it begins to become a chore I take a day/week off.

No Purchase Required A list of no purchase required offers that pay out considerably more than daily clicks i.e 25p - £2. Includes the information you have to enter i.e. name, address, telephone to get the offer to track. Also includes warnings i.e. lets you know if your email account/phone line is going to be bombarded with junk so you can decide whether the inconvenience is worth the cash received.

Latest News W/C 9th Jan 2010 Competitions Most cashback sites host some form of competition and I think competitions are an excellent way to boost your account balance because they take approx the same amount of time and effort to do a daily click but you have the chance to win pounds. I've added details of the various competitions to the daily click routines to try and encourage more of you to take part.

I received £1044.10 from cashback and survey sites in 2009 which means I achieved my goal of £1000 despite having off days, weeks and even months. Pricedigger Has been reduced from 3 to 2 clicks per day. HW/US Clicks A daily cap has been put in place and the limit is being reached around 2pm which means you now have to be a night owl or an early bird to make sure you get all these clicks done on all the cashback sites as it states you have to leave an hour between the 1st and last click. I'm doing these clicks on Getpoundsback and Crunchcashback site first so that I have enough tracked transactions to be able to enter the competitions (fingers crossed this will pay off). If I've got time I'll go and do the clicks on other sites. W/C 19th Dec 2009 2010 Daily Click Routines I know this is early but I'll be busy over the Xmas/New Year break - and the early bird catches the worm. I've created new click routines for 2010, the beginners guide no longer includes 1p clicks which means 50% cashback sites have been replaced with 100% sites i.e. MBM & Loyaltyshopper have gone, Getpoundsback has been included. For those of you that don't want to change your routine, the original daily click routines are still there and I'll continue to update them. Top Titbits from 2009 News Topcashback You can now submit Missing Cashback Claims for any amount of missing cashback - even for as little as 1p. The only exception to this will be certain 'No Purchase Necessary' offers. Its Your View Pays approx 1p on the following sites when there is no survey or you don't qualify. Loyaltyshopper (homepage), Topcashback, Quidco & Quidsinuk. It appears on other sites but they don't pass the 1p on to the clicker. Amazon Only a few cashback sites offer cashback on Amazon purchases – even if you pay using vouchers you have received from other cashback/bingo sites. Quidsinuk - 3.75% up to maximum of £5. Unfortunately you have to log in to the site before you are able to access this offer. Log in to the site then click on Cashback A to Z, then click on Amazon.co.uk. Have to submit a claim once you have received your items. Loyaltyshopper - PM Shirley or Phil for details. Check out the platinum club section of the forum. Paypal Paypal charge 3.4% + 20p however the recipient or the sender can pay this fee, some sites pay it others don't (OpinionWorld do, Quidco don't.) It also depends if the person sending the money states it's personal - gift/other. It is something that should be taken into account especially on paid to click (PTC) sites as it can work out to be weeks/months worth of clicks. If you really want to use Paypal its worth asking around on forums or contacting the site owners to see whether or not you will be charged. If you want to continue receiving payments via Paypal I suggest you increase your minimum payment threshold on cashback sites that automatically send out payments i.e. Quidco to reduce the number of 20p you have to pay.

Payments received TOTAL 2010: £23.12 Received in Jan 2010 - £23.12 Fatcheese - Paypal payment for £4 (no fees deducted) Moneybackmadness - Paypal payment for £12.30 (no fees deducted) Getpoundsback - Paypal payment for £6.82 (no fees deducted)

• Moneysavingexpert - This site introduced me to cashback sites and click-your-way2cash website. It has a referrers boards where you can post your own referral links.
  
• Kate the owner of Click Your Way 2 Cash - I found this site a god send when I first started doing daily clicks. The routines were very helpful and kept me motivated. I decided to set up my own website with routines as my clicking went out of sync when I stopped following a routine.
