Have you tried MyPoints?  I've earned a lot of gift cards and United Airline miles from them, mostly for just reading e-mails.

 

I have tried several, but MyPoints.com is the only one I still use. That fact alone tells me this is the best one. The others I have tried (most of which are now defunct) took too long to earn enough points for anything meaningful. With MyPoints.com, I have cashed in points several times for resturant gift cards and other things. 

MyPoints! Without a doubt! This one has no strings and will pay you in gift cards year after year. I have cashed in over the past 5 years or more for over 400 dollars in FREE gift cards just for opening and reading the emails. It is by far the quickest and easiest way to rack up the $$$ in gift cards.

I too agree with MyPoints! I've been on that site since 2003 and have earned many gift cards by earning enough points. I should tell you that I've never purchased anything through their site that would earn me points, I've earned my points simply by clicking on their emails and visiting the website they are currently featuring. But if you are an online shopper, you could earn even more faster buy purchasing products on sites they support!

I would have to say Mypoints.  I have been with several different sites that pay for reading emails, but this is the only one that I have stuck with.  No strings attached.  No hassles when redeemimg your points.  They have tons of giftcards and different levels.  I often tell my friends and family about this site.

I too think MyPoints is great.  It is the only way to go in  my opinion.

Mypoints and Inboxdollars both give points for reading emails, I've noticed that Inboxdollars sends MORE emails, but MyPoints gives more for reading them.

I do both, Mypoints and Inboxdollars. Yes, Mypoints does give you more, and you can redeem for gift cards, amazon money, and paypal. (I think). With Inboxdollars you have to wait until your total reaches $30.00 before cashing out. If you like survey's I could give you a few names that pay out money, it doesn't cost you anything, some even send you products to try and give opinions. Never pay for any of these types of programs, the legit ones pays you.

I was with inboxdollars for a long time and it took FOREVER to cash out and with mypoints I have cashed out over and over and over again.  Just didn't like it, the ads felt spammy and on my points i felt like i could trust the site and my purchases. 

Another good thing about MyPoints is that you find so many great online shopping sites.  This is how I found Drugstore.com and some other great ones.  Incidentally, MyPoints was the star which pointed me to my T-Mobile cellphone service which I am still using after all this time.

 

I don't remember how I joined MyPoints, but it lured me in with its promises of free gift cards, even though I was somewhat skeptical.  The first time I ordered a $20 Wal-Mart gift card it came in the mail 2-weeks later!  I was hooked 100%, and now I do all my on-line shopping through MyPoints from Avon to Wal-Mart to GNC!  They all offer free delivery or site-to-store delivery, and sometimes I don't even have to pay sales tax, so it's a win-win situation all-around. :)  Not only am I saving money, I'm also earning money at the same time!  My last gift card was $50 for Home Depot that I've used to by supplies for my new house and flowers for my mom's garden. It's a nice site! 

Forget Mypoints! Mypoints doesn't pay you in cash. YouData is a good site that is similar to reading emails, but you visit sites instead. Each site you go to you get 5 cents.  Go to insidersin.com to read the review under PTC + GPT Sites. The review says the good and bad about YouData. 

My points is the bomb but have you tried mysurvey.com it is just as interesting and CASH pay out use me as a referral papa-bears-girl@hotmail.com

https://www.mysurvey.com/

Paste in ur browser and you will go there directly, I have been a member for years and it really sends out all the perks it says it will.

ew I can't even imagine getting even more spam in my inbox than I already do.  No thanks!!!!

InboxDollars pays the best,mysurvey.com takes to long to get points on ,a waist of time really inboxdollars or sendearnings.com are the two best ones so far.

But, you have to have mobile to join YOUdata.  I for one don't own a mobile and if I ever have one, I am not going to give my numbers to anyone or list it online.  MyPoints and IBD is the best for me.

MyPoints is good.  I like earning the gift cards and it doesn't take long to collect the points.  IBD is okay, the the ads repeat so much it gets annoying and the cash surveys I seldom qualify for, so it takes so long to earn enough for a payout on just reading emails.  And to add insult to injury, they charge you, for paying you.

Are you still consistently getting offers though??  For me it seems like it has dried up so really I stopped visiting.  They are prompt with payment and payout well, but thirty cents per week isn't worth it  for me.

As for PTC (paid-to-click) or PTR (Paid-to-read) sites I would deinitely agree that mypoints has the best prospects.  There are e-mails just about everyday, small things you can do on the site, paid to shop and survey opportunities.  If you get their credit card you really rack up the points as well.  I've primarly done just the e-mails and I can cash out a few times per year in gift cards.

I've been with a company called Send Earnings, which is exactly set up like In-Box Dollars and it has taken forever to accumulate enough to cash out.  After my next cash out with them I'm thinking I'm done.

I stopped using mypoints for reasons I don't remember, likely having to do with how much time and effort it took to get the cards, and the cards that were available.

Definately MyPoints.  I have earned numerous gift cards and often shop through to earn points per dollar.

I currently use Inbox Dollars and Mypoints...I like IBD but just requested my check from them only to find out they charge you $3.00 to send it and also it takes like 2 months for your first check to arrive!  Too much hassle!

Another vote for MyPoints.  It's a great way to get gift cards to give away for special occasions.  I do plenty of on-line shopping and get rewarded for it, so points grow quickly and easily for me.

I have never tried to redeem My Points even though I have been there for years.  I'm not sure why I stayed as I didn't really realize you could get that much.  Thanks for the information. 

I also vote for mypoints! It is by far the best site I have found. I earn all year and by the holidays I cash in for a lot of gift cards for Christmas gifts. I earn a ton of points for the holiday shopping I do online and all other online purchases I make I do it from the site and earn (why not earn for things you will purchase anyway). Planning trips, clothes shopping, beauty, electronics, there list is huge and even includes ebay! Check it out if you haven't already!

Thanks for all the great new sites. I used inboxdollars, sendearnings and snapdollars. These three are slow to earn money only if you read emails. If you shop and take advantage of other opportunities on there then you can earn money faster. I also am a fan of surveyspot.com. They offer a lot of cash surveys and you can cash out at $5.00. I am definitely going to try some of the sites suggested on here. Thanks.

I do agree with my points,I have gotten several gift cards

I agree that my points is the best.

I have also been with MyPoints for about 6-7 years. Just open the email, click thru to the site and you have an instant 5 points. They also send you surveys for 50 points completed and 10 points if you don't qualify. You know if you qualify within a page or two, so you don't take half of the survey and then get dumped. That's an easy 10 points for less than a minute. I seriously have lost count with how many gift cards I have gotten from them. I usually order a $10 Olive Garden/Red Lobster gift card every 3 months.

A great tip is to make sure you update your profile and check as many boxes as possible for your interests. That will ensure you get the most emails to click thru.  Just a heads up.........you will get a lot of spam in your "junk" folder. But it's all worth it to me. 

Good Luck!    www.mypoints.com

Gee, seems no one mentioned MyPoints.com - lol - just kidding ;) that's my fave

I have used both inbox dollars and mypoints, but definately like my points the best!
