Had an e-mail from Podengo so applying for some market research, tanku again to whomever posted it on here :A

Yep, as Aesop says in her post, it was me. I'm glad you're finding it useful, there are some brilliant campaigns in every email they send.

You probably already know but there's a limit to how many assignments you can do (I think just one every 3 months with the focus groups). Best check the small print of their Ts and Cs.

GoodLuck:beer:

So this Geolotto has me hooked. I have to admit that in my first week I used the money I earnt from free games to play the 5p square games but didn't win.

Any insider tips on this game?

does anyone use the ipoll app? what do the missions entail? theres one at my local Tesco - just wondered what sort of things it got you to do?
is it any good at paying out?

I used to do iPoll, have received last payment and am closing my account.

The missions are ok, involved a lot of photography covertly - which can be difficult in some situations.

Payment takes forever!!! and they do surveys on the site to help you reach goal faster, these take forever to clear as well.

if you like onepoll, yougov, and don't mind waiting an age for payment, go ahead and do it.

you will be taking photographs and reporting back on what you see in the produce,if tesco one.



if you like these kind of jobs, sign up for roamler, clic and walk, streetbees,

http://www.becomeabee.com/

http://www.roamler.co.uk/Join

http://www.clicandwalk.com/#!clicwalkers


they all pay much faster than iPoll and do the same kind of work, except no surveys involved.

All pay by paypal, I have been paid by all 3 more than once, and know it is not an issue and payment has been received for all jobs i have done correctly.

be careful with roamler as their tasks are very hard, and I have fedback that payment is unfair sometimes for volume of work involved in the tasks.

I'm tempted by bounts... is it maxed out at 7k steps a day or if I walked 70k would I get more?

Important stuff

As at April 30th, 2015 we will stop calculating points for everyone BUT instead we will reward you with the maximum points and credits each day based on your membership until further notice
Premium Plus members will earn 60 points & 9 credits each day

Premium members will earn 30 points & 6 credits each day

Free members will earn 5 bounts & 1 credit each day

This is likely to continue for a few days but we will keep you updated on progress via our social media sites and will send an email when it’s complete
Social points will not be awarded during this time. There are no activities being tracked in the bounts engine so we just can’t award them
Friend referral points will be awarded as soon as the bounts engine reconfigure and reboot is complete. If a friend has joined bounts and used your referral code AND completed their first activity after the reboot then you will both earn your referral points if you haven’t already got them now
What about the exercise I track during this period? I’m afraid it will be ignored by the bounts engine when it comes back up. That's why we are giving you the max points and credits for your account. You couldn't have earned more than that!
What if I’m missing points already? I’m afraid we will not be able to look back and check. If you have checked your history on your dashboard, that is what it will look like after the reboot.


Improvements & changes

More qualifying activities

Some of you told us that our new rule of 3 activities a day and 2 hour gaps make earning bounts too hard. We are improving it immediately.

We are increasing the number of activities that can earn you points and credits.

Instead of only being able to record 3 activities per day, you can now record 9 activities per day no matter what plan you are on. You can do 3 activities from each of our three categories per day. This gives you a lot more opportunity to earn points.



Lifestyle trackers (Fitbit, Jawbone, Misfit, MovesApp)

3 per day (3 x 7000 steps)



Exercise trackers (MapMyRun, RunKeeper, Strava, LFConnect)

3 per day (2 hours apart, at least 20 minutes each activity)



Checkins (membership card, coach scans or ipad scans)

3 per day (2 hours apart)



Premium Plus

members will now earn up to 180pts per day and 27 credits



Premium

members will now earn up to 90pts per day and 18 credits



Free

members will now earn up to 15pts per day and 3 credits



Lifestyle Trackers like Fitbit, Jawbone & MovesApp - Steps Only

Too many people are confused by active minutes and steps. Some trackers don’t show the breakdown on their dashboards so you can’t monitor what you are doing and we can’t accept manually created activities.

People are confused by the way active minutes are displayed, manually entered activities and timing of syncs where steps can sometimes be missed for 24 hours until the next sync.

We are making a change.

All lifestyle trackers which include Fitbit, Jawbone, MovesApp and Misfit will only earn points for steps from now on.

You will earn bounts points and credits for every 7,000 steps up to 21,000 steps a day.

Example: A Premium member can earn 30pts and 6 credits from their Fitbit for a single day. They can now track other activity such as a run or walk using an app like MapMyRun and earn points and credits too.


If the workouts are tracked automatically by an app like RunKeeper or MapMyRun then they should appear on your Bounts account about 5 mins to 1 hour after you complete the activity.

Note: we don’t award points for manually entered activity. The activity needs to have lasted longer than 20 minutes and have an average speed of greater than 4km/hr, which is roughly a slow walk.

If you’re using a belt like MyZone or devices like Fitbit or Jawbone please ensure you sync regularly. After syncing it should be on your account within the hour.

With devices like Fitbit and MyZone you need to reach a minimum number of steps or Very Active time each day to earn points. Again, manually entered data doesn’t qualify for points.

Depending on the activity, it can be up to 3 activities in one day. For example, using fitbit you can get 15 points for over 7000 steps. You can also gain up to 30 points for Very Active minutes. This would be a total of 45 points in 1 day!

I never play doug - unless it is bonus money which can only be spent on paid games.

I used to play the normal digger game, and would zoom in on the map looking for areas where people had already won coins and then dug around their coins. I would look for a pattern and follow it, if I got a lot of red crosses I would move somewhere else.

That was working well until someone told me about turbo. Now that is all I play.

with turbo if you find the hidden treasure, you earn 20p. That could happen on first dig as has happened to me and others, or after quite a few digs.

it is fast paced and as it is called turbo, someone might win quite quickly and you have to wait for next game to load.

again on this, I follow the coins, if someone before me has won coins, they usually play randomly, I dig on either side of the coins, as they are usually coins in a row, up or down. I do well out of this one.

May I please join, at £5 a day? I have some large bills at the end of May, so the push to earn some extra money will be very helpful! I have made £16 so far this month, so need to work a bit harder!
