Memolink Pays - $10 Amazon.com Gift Certificate Redemption

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 08 Jan 2011 06:39:00 +0000

I am reporting my $10 redemption from Memolink in the form of an Amazon.com gift certificate. Memolink’s site states that the rewards are usually processed and shipped within 7 days. The code was emailed to me within 4ys after redemption. I submitted the redemption via Memolink’s website on October 17 2010 and I received the email containing the code on Oct 21 2010. You need 19200 points to redeem for a $10 value reward. I chose Amazon.com gift certificate because it is one of the rewards which can be fulfilled via electronic delivery instead of risking snail mail’s delivery time and also risk of it being lost in the mail. (I’ve had experiences with MyPoints which I redeemed for a $50 Amazon.com gift certificate which never arrived and I basically lost my hard earned points). Just to be safe.

I have been a Memolink member since 2004 and I have received my rewards promptly after submitting my redemption request. Memolink pays!

You can collect points via various activities at Memolink (surveys, daily clicks, trivia, lotto, etc). You can also get points when you complete purchases from various popular merchants online (similar to cashback concept at BigCrumbs, only that you get points instead of cashback.) Points per dollar vary from merchant to merchant.

For certain activity completed, you receive a star which will entitle to MemoGold status once you have 10 stars (your Memo Meter filled up). Once you have filled you’re your Memo Meter with 10 stars, you’re eligible to upgrade to Memo Gold status which will be valid for 6 months. (Yes, you must manually upgrade to Memo Gold status, they don’t automatically upgrade you).

Below are the benefits of having Memo Gold status:
Additional 10% more points earned (for e.g. 5 points will now become 5.5 points)
Eligible to take Memolink Gold Trivia (10 questions per day for 11 points – because you get 1.1 point for each correct answer)

Other quick ways to help you earn more points:
Install the Memolink toolbar and get 1000 points (points rewarded once only)
Conduct internet search via Memolink toolbar – 5 points each (maximum 50 points per day)
Memolink Tasks - various point levels
Surveys – various point levels
Refer a friend – 100 points each.

I log on to Memolink daily to collect my points. Available guaranteed activities:
Daily trivia – 5 points
Daily site of the day – 3 points
Daily surveys – 10-15 points
Daily site visit – 1 point
Email click throughs – 3 or 6 points each.
Daily search via Memolink toolbar – 50 points.

Drop me a comment if you would like me to earn some points by referring you with your name and email address. Comments are moderated and your name and email address won’t be displayed unless you specify to. We should protect ourselves from spam. Bots can pick up email addresses published in blog comments easily and normally once you start receiving spam, you can’t stop them even if you keep unsubscribing them).
Of course, you can register for free on your own without giving me any points.

FreeRide $25 Amazon.com Gift Certificate Redemption (31,500 Tokens)

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 13:26:00 +0000

I checked my FreeRide account and realized that I have enough tokens earned in my account to redeem for a $25.00 value gift card/certificate. Then I proceeded to the redemption page "Redeem Tokens" to check out the available reward selections. You can redeem for a gift card/certificate from 15 options: Amazon.com, Ruth's Chris, Overstock Web Certificate, Home Depot, Olive Garden, Red Lobster, Smokey Bones BBQ, Walmart, Target, Bahama Breeze, FreeRide Visa Gift Card, Barnes & Noble, and Options GiftCard Inc. You may also redeem for a donation to ASPCA and Make a Wish Foundation. I chose a Amazon.com gift certificate.

Amazon.com gift card will be sent via email only now instead of snail mail (+ point for going green). Once selected the redemption choice, the confirmation message will notify you to expect the redemption to be processed within 6 weeks and you have 24 hours to cancel your redemption in case you change your mind.
And I received a notification email to my registered email address notifying me about the redemption made. Also, it can be checked in the My Account page.

If you're interested to join, please leave a comment with your email address for referral. You can also sign up directly at FreeRide.com if you choose not to reward me with a referral worth 200 tokens :)

SurveySpot Pays with PayPal, Changed to Points System

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 04:26:00 +0000

I've been a SurveySpot member for quite some time and they have now changed to the points system instead of specifying the reward value by the dollar. Anyway, 100 points = $1, so it doesn't affect much in terms of the final value of the reward you receive from the surveys. The most important thing is, now SurveySpot pays out through PayPal! Previously only the check devilery through US mail option was available, but now thanks to this addition, cashing out is a lot more easier!

SpotWinner is Dead - No Relaunching in 2010

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 05:19:00 +0000

Dear all, it has been one whole year and I would say for now SpotWinner is dead. The promised updates and relaunching of the SpotWinner site for 2010 was never done and this is very disappointing because they were looking pretty steady at one point. Google around and you'll see many comments about delayed prize fulfillment. They owe me some points too. SpotWinner is a failure.

Paid by Greenfield Online. I Cashed Out $36

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 25 Dec 2009 15:12:00 +0000

Cashed out from Greenfield Online survey panel for $36.00 and payment was done through PayPal. Screenshot of payment as per below:

SpotWinner $20 Redemption Level Reached

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 13:06:00 +0000

Thanks to the recent win of $10 from SpotWinner, I've reached the $20 (20,000 points/SpotCash) redemption level. There used to be PayPal redemption options but seems like SpotWinner has removed them from the choices of redemption. Luckily, there are still the Amazon.com gift card option available and the Amazon.com gift card will be sent through email, which is a preferred option as we don't have to worry about the incidence of undelivered mail or lost mail.

Does Blingo Have a Future?

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 31 May 2009 03:58:00 +0000

Well, ever since Blingo changed its search engine provider, I used less of it and used the direct Google search page mainly for my daily searches. For your information, back then Blingo was powered by Google, inarguably the No.1 search engine on the web today. Then there was Winzy, which never won me anything really and is one which does not focus on the search engine concept alone, so I said byebye to it as well. But at least I know that Blingo is powered by Yahoo! and LiveSearch. I think I am going to spend maybe 30%-40% of my searches to Blingo to get back to my winning ways.

Your2Cents Surveys $56.20 Earned

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 09:31:00 +0000

I was a member of a survey panel named Your2Cents which rewards me with surveys with $2-$5 compensations. I checked my account recently and the figures show that I've raked up $56.20 from Your2Cents surveys and a pending balance of 30,000 points which can be redeemed for $10. Your2Cents has been sending me very little surveys over the months. I don't know whether this is a sign that they ditched me or that they are closing down. Anyway, online surveys do pay!

AWSurveys February 2009 Status $124!

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 04:54:00 +0000

As of February 2009, my A.W.Surveys account has a balance of $124! Pretty good silent money coming in I'd say. I shall stow this away for a new PSP, hopefully a PSP2 if it ever comes out this year. Earlier I blogged about me getting my 1st payment from AWSurveys in November. The A.W.Surveys check arrived safely in the mail so this time I am going for the check option once I reach the $150 cash out level. (You can only redeem in multiples of $75, i.e. $75, $150 and so on) You can choose to have it paid via PayPal, but it would slash $25 off your redemption money for "expedited service". Personally, I rather wait a few weeks and get the $25 which I earned!

BigCrumbs PayDay $14.07 - Feb 16 2009

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 15:17:00 +0000

Today I received my payment form my activities at BigCrumbs. I was delighted to see an email notification entitled "Payday at BigCrumbs.com" informing me of the $14.07 deposited into my account. It proved once again that BigCrumbs works! It gives you cashback on your Internet purchases on top of collecting points/cashback from your credit cards (assuming you're making your payments using credit card as I am).
I pulled out a report from my BigCrumbs account today and I saw that my BigCrumbs referrals have been spending $8498.66 via BigCrumbs! This makes me believe that many of us are fans of eBay, coz "whatever it is, you can get it on eBay."

Happy Valentine's Day 2009

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 13:16:00 +0000

Just would like to wish all couples a Happy Valentine's Day! Valentine spendings have declined in 2009 thanks (but no thanks) to the global economic downturn which has hit us pretty bad. I too, have cut my Valentine spendings this year. I did not order a bouquet from FTD or 1800-Flowers because the prices are ridiculous. They were already ridiculous in the past but since I am feeling a little bit tight on my finances like most of us all, I think the prices are absurd!

$2 Reward from Game Survey

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 07 Dec 2008 14:54:00 +0000

I completed a Game Survey survey and got rewarded with $2. It was a short and easy survey about gaming topic. Game Survey provides the option to choose the reward in the form of Amazon.com gift certificate or PayPal payment. I chose PayPal.

Viewpoint Forum Redemption: $11.07 Check

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 07 Dec 2008 02:31:00 +0000

I have cashed out from Viewpoint Forum after redeeming the points in my balance in exchange for $11.07. I've received the $11.07 check from Viewpoint Forum in a timely manner. I earn points by taking surveys and for referrals, I get 100 points per new user who signs up using my invitation. The only way to join is via email invites from current members. It used to be 50 points per successful invite. So anyone who would like to join Viewpoint Forum panel, contact me or leave a comment. I'll send out the invite, I have invites left.

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 06 Dec 2008 12:50:00 +0000

I completed a short SurveySpot survey for $2 today. That was quick and easy.

AW Surveys $75 Check Is Here!

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:16:00 +0000

I've received the $75 check from A.W.Surveys in my mailbox! I cashed out on as per mentioned in this previous post. A.W. Surveys pays! The minimum redemption amount is $75 and you can choose to have is sent to you via either PayPal, AlertPay or check. I opted for the slower check through the mail because the PayPal and AlertPay option deducts $25 off for speed processing fees (yuck). So thanks to all who signed up under me. Here is the photo of the check I received.
And here is the current status of my account with 58 referrals and counting! Woohoo!

Memolink $10 Amazon.com Gift Certificate Redemption

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 13:30:00 +0000

At the right time in November, I've managed to gather enough points at Memolink to redeem a $10 Amazon.com gift certificate. It took me 19200 points to get a $10 Amazon.com gift certificate, or something of equivalent value. Just in time for helping with my holiday shopping. In my Memolink account, there's a reward meter bar alwa displayed on the top right corner to let me know how far away I am from my next redemption level.
It was delivered via email within the same day! Yup, that's right, I received it in my inbox within 24 hours. I've been a Memolink member for a few years and they do fulfill their rewards.

$5 SurveySpot Survey Reward

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 12:36:00 +0000

I completed a $5 survey from SurveySpot this week (~20 minutes). A great reward for my time and effort. Will be credited within the next 4-6 weeks. I will update with photo after I receive my next SurveySpot redemption check in the mail.

SpotWinner $5 Amazon.com Gift Card Redemption

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 17:30:00 +0000

I just redeemed a $5 Amazon.com gift card from SpotWinner. I accumulated enough SpotCash (points) to execute the redemption. I used up 5000 SpotCash to exchange for a $5 value Amazon.com gift card which will be delivered electronically via email. The last time around, they had the $5 Paypal option but this time I didn't see it. So that's why I went with the $5 Amazon.com gift card.

MyPoints Redemption

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 12:55:00 +0000

November is usually the month I kick off the holiday shopping spree. In this present economic situation, I've decided to cash out on my MyPoints to exchange for some giftcards which would in turn be used to purchase the gifts. Now this seems like choosing a place to get a gift instead of searching for a gift. Well, it doesn't matter much because both Amazon.com and Banana Republic offer a wide range of quality selections at my disposal. So here's the redemption record.
I redeemed a $50 Amazon.com gift certificate for 7400 MyPoints.

And I also redeemed a $50 Banana Republic gift card for some 6500 MyPoints.

SurveySpot $1 Survey Completion

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 19:00:00 +0000

I managed to complete a survey from SurveySpot and earned myself a little $1 for it. Yes, not a big amount, a small and minimal amount in fact. But in the current economic situation where people are trying very hard to make ends meet, every dollar counts. I could get a McChicken for $1 you know. SurveySpot is a very good survey reward program and has been delivering many $3 and $5 surveys over the past year for me.

E-poll $10 Amazon.com Redemption

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 17:58:00 +0000

I've reached the $10 cash out level at E-poll so I promptly decided to redeem for a $10 Amazon.com gift certificate. E-poll is a survey reward program where each survey normally gives you a minimum of 500 points. The good thing about e-poll is that even if you don't qualify for the entire survey, you'll still be rewarded with 500 points! Additionally, some longer surveys credit up to 1500 points. I've been a member of E-poll for some years now and I do enjoy their easy surveys and reward redemption process.

BizRate's Misleading Newsletter Sign Up Page

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 17:39:00 +0000

BizRate is a site where you can rate the merchants after you've made your online purchases. One offer they have all the time is their Daily Cash Giveaway where 20 winners will get $25 everyday. The requirement is that you need to rate the merchant you just shopped at. It's pretty easy and quick. At the end of your rating, you'll come to this submission page where you can see why BizRate is misleading the users to sign up for their newsletter. Look closely. You don't actually have to sign up for the newsletter to be entered in the $25 daily cash giveaway. but because the default option bullet is for the sign up, and they boldly put Click here to enter... Good Luck" there, most users who don't read the fine print would go ahead to click the yellow enter button on the right. Slimy!

$5 off $25 Whole Foods Coupon

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 14:12:00 +0000

For those whose frequent Whole Foods for healthier and dearer organic food, save $5 with this coupon. This coupon is valid for $5 off $25 at Whole Foods, valid until Oct 22 2008. Judging the food prices at Whole Foods, it is rather easy to achieve a $25 worth of items and get $5 off. To maximize this offer, purchase about $25-$30 worth of items and use the coupon. That'd give you about 20% of savings. Compare to using it for a cartful of items worth $100, you're saving $5 also, but accounts for 5% of your total spendings. So use it wisely.

The minimum amount needed to cash out is $75. 3 options of redemption: check mailed to you (4-6 weeks) or have the money deposited into your Paypal or Alertpay account (a few days but they charge you $25 for that!). Might as well wait a few weeks to have the hard-earned $25 to myself. Thanks to all who signed up under me. I'll report back when I receive the check from AW Surveys and cash it out. AW Surveys is open not only to those residing in the US, but also for those who are residing in other countries of the world. Sign up now and get guaranteed $6 in your welcome survey.
