  • Yes, I actually aim for 375 at the moment.
    70 comes from the daily survey.
    Running SBTV, encrave and radio all day brings in around 220 a day depending how quickly I get to clicking them on.
    10 from games
    4 from the toolbar, poll and NOSO.
    Searches can be anything but I average 30 most days.
    Hopefully there are some videos to click through and a code or even two.
    The odd task if I need it.
    Then I hope to get a offer such as sign up to play a game, or sign up to a website or other but none that ask for bank details.

    I have all day to spend on it though. I work on my computer all day so it is no trouble to me at all to have encrave, SBTV and the radio playing in the background and not have the sound on. Luckily, none of them have to be in window view, so I can do other things.

    Inbox Pounds, Clixsense and Gift Hulk all seem to pay better. Gift Hulk have a card game to play that you can win a % bonus for x amount of hours so if you manage to get a 15% bonus on that, then you get even more for the surveys on there.
    Having said that, I didn't get any bonus wins until I was a gold member.

    The offers you get with companies like My Offers are not so good but there can be some really good ones. Reward TV is one and usually credits fine. You have to have a good look round.

    You'll pick it up :)
    I don't get through on any of the daily surveys for 70 :( Only once.
    I cannot run encrave in the background because it stops as soon as I click on another tab.
    I have to find another 48 tonight & I need to get up early tomorrow.
  • OK.....Open Encrave.
    Then you need to press Ctrl +Tab which then tabs out encrave to another window. Click the 'tick' on.
    Encrave will then run its 10-12 minutes without you touchiing it.

    If you have the extention, it will say "Your Swagbucks account balance has recently been updated" when the encrave round is finished, so you can keep an eye on things.

    So now you should have Swagbucks open plus encrave on a new tab.
    Now, open SBTV thought the extention. The extention version pops out a new window, which then can be minimised.
    Click through the videos when you remember.

    Then, go to radio. In Swagbucks, they have very nicely allowed a new window for the radio, so this also can be minimised and will still credit.
    It runs for half an hour on SBs so not as much messing around.
    Again, watch for the notification from the extention for when stuff has finished.
    You'll get to know with times what has finished and what hasn't.

    You have three hidden windows earning you cash while you do other things either on SBs or on other sites. :T

    Sorry, forgot to say. I use Chrome. I tried them all and Chrome works the best and has the best capabilities.
    Brilliant. Thank you. I too use Chrome, but it only worked if I didn't actually minimised them but clicked on the other window. If I used the - they stopped. Also I got SBTV in a new window by right clicking on the man picture. Having any of these in a tab instead of a new window didn't work. Bit late but need to reach my 2nd target today & it has been slow. :(
  • I have tried a couple of the offers & NONE have credited. MyOffers 30SB, Swagbucks 60SB, Active You 31SB to mention a couple. They did say a 15 minute delay but that was this morning. Tried on other days & same. Am I missing something here please? Struggling today & these would get me over my targets IF they actually credited. Thanks

    encrave WILL stop if you simply click on another tab, as the tab you are running it in will then become inactive
    in order to keep it going, use CTRL + TAB to make chrome move on to a different tab by itself, encrave will then think it is still in an active tab.

    In the past when i have been desperate and there has been no surveys so i have tried a few of those kind of offers.
    They have never credited for me so i tend to just leave them.
    No clue why they don't work though.

    It's very unlikely you're doing anything wrong. They're just very unreliable. Of course, do them if you want, but you're taking a risk with your time and effort.

    I tend to see which ones people post positive comments about here, that they credited instantly without hassle, were easy, simple, etc. then if i've got time to spare/am desperate to make goals I might try some myself! :)

    If you've got an iphone/ipad/android phone or tablet I find the app downloads on trialpay are the best bets.

    No smart phone unfortunately. Maybe SB could buy me one! :p
