Treasuretrooper FAQ Frequently Asked Questions



Treasuretrooper Frequently Asked Questions:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is Treasuretrooper
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Treasuretrooper is a GPT website. GPT websites compile a list of various opportunities paid for by companies looking for market data on current and potential customers. Treasuretrooper compiles these lists and offer them to members. Treasuretrooper is paid for completed offers and/or agreements submitted to a company and in turn, a portion of those earnings are given to the members.

What does that mean? Basically Treasuretrooper finds an opportunity, you as a member complete it and the money is split between the two parties.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it REALLY free to join?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes. Treasuretrooper is 100% free to join.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How much money can I make
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That is really dependent on how much time you are willing to invest. People need to understand that unless you get lucky on the Megabucks in Vegas, there are NO get rich quick schemes. The more time you invest completing the offers available the more money you can make. Typically $70 - $80 per month for a few hours a day or even every other day is highly attainable.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How do I get paid?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Treasuretrooper offers payment via Paypal or check.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How often do I get paid?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Payments are processed monthly between the 12th and 15th.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What if I don't meet my minimum payout amount?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you don't meet the monthly minimum payout, your current earnings are rolled over to the next month and so forth until you do. You will get paid once that threshold is met.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do I have to provide my personal information?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes. This is done to for accuracy. After all, companies are paying to have these offers completed and inaccurate information does not help them. Information you will generally have to provide are name, address and telephone number.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will I get phone calls?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sometimes. The GPT website itself will never call you or pass out your information. However, when completing an offer, a phone number is often required. Why? I don't know. However, in the majority of cases you will have the option to NOT have them call you.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will my email get spammed?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes. Unfortunate, but yes you will start to receive a lot of SPAM emails. For this reason, it is HIGHLY recommended that you have multiple email accounts. DO NOT use your primary email account to complete offers. Gmail is a GREAT service to use.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is an Offer Survey?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are the most common types of earning options available. Basically you enter your information and click on a variety of different questions. The types of questions cover a broad spectrum and range from household products used to yearly salary wages. 99% of the answers are done via check boxes or option ticks.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is a Personal Survey?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Personal Surveys are issued by companies looking for a specific criteria. You fill in the requested information and if you fit into the demographic that the survey is looking for, you proceed. If you are ineligible, the survey ends and notifies you that you aren't what they are looking for.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is a Trial Offer?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is as it sounds. You sign up to either test a service or product. GPT websites offer much larger earnings on Trial Offers, but a credit card is usually required.

There are two types of Trial Offers -- Service Trials and Product Trials.

Service Trials require that you sign up for a trial membership which can range from between 7 and 30 days. Some are free, but you MUST remember to cancel the trial membership. If you do not cancel the trial membership within the allotted trial period, your credit card will be charged the standard monthly fee for that site. Also, you cannot simply sign up for a trial membership and cancel immediately. Doing so will prevent you from getting your GPT account credit.

Some actually require you sign up for membership. Either way, you will almost always be offered a GPT account earnings that is greater then your cost.

Product Trials want you to test a particular product. The product itself is free, but in most cases you are required to pay shipping which ranges from $1.95 to $4.95. IMPORTANT: For many Product Trial Offers, you will also be automatically signed up for a trial membership of some kind. Be sure to read the Terms And Conditions CAREFULLY to see how long the trial membership will last.

Trial offers are a good way to earn money faster, but more 'work' is required. So long as you ensure that you are happy with the GPT earning amount minus your costs they are another method to increase your earnings.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do I need to use my credit card for Trial Offers?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As previously stated yes you do. However, an alternative is to get a prepaid credit card. They work exactly like a normal credit card, but there is a set amount of money on it. Once the funds run out, the card is empty. This way, you don't have to worry about forgetting to cancel a trial offer! Prepaid credit cards can be found at:www.giftcards.com

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why is my account not being credited for a survey that I completed?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In order to prevent as much redundancy in surveys as possible, companies use Internet cookies to 'track' who is taking them. The same email or registered information showing up for the same survey company sends a red flag. It is HIGHLY recommended that you have several email accounts and rotate them between offers. Also, be sure to clear your internet cookies between offers. These two, simple steps will greatly increase your offer approval rates. This applies mainly to Freebies, not Trial Offers or Daily Surveys.
