How much will I earn?

Your earnings will vary based on how much data you decide to share as well as how well you are matched with brands looking for your behavioral profile. Many of our consumers earn $30+ per month, and we are working on additional features to help our community earn more. 

Please note that your earnings are also dependent on whether you are actively using the Chrome Extension to collect the data. The more you collect and share, the more likely you will be matched with brands and placed in communities. Each community you are added to contributes to your earning potential. Remember, you always have full control over what data you share and restrict.

To earn more money make sure the Chrome Extension is actively collecting data. The “Data collected today” number in the extension should be increasing as you browse the internet. Just because your data collection is increasing, it does not mean that we have found you a match. You will be compensated when we find the right brand fit and you are placed in a community. Increase your chances of being matched to a community by sharing your real browsing behavior. 

Where do I see how much I’ve earned?

In the extension you can see "Data collected today" listed. To track your payments and see how much you have earned click on dashboard in the bottom right of the extension, and in the dashboard click on Sales and Activity from the options on the left.

Is there a minimum earning amount before I can get paid?

Payment threshold: You need to hit a minimum of $30 in earnings in order to withdraw. Additionally, you must be matched with a community before you can withdraw your earnings. In certain circumstances, such as participating in referral programs or being a loyal customer, additional earnings may accrue in your account. However, withdrawal is only possible once you have been assigned to a community.

Will I see earnings in real-time as I browse the internet?

Your earnings are not a real-time meter related to how much you browse. It is true that the more you browse, the higher the opportunity that your data will be matched with brands. However, earnings are assessed weekly based on whether your data has been matched with a brand community. Your data has to be matched first before it is reflected in your earnings. So if you aren't seeing a change or you seem to be earning less than before, either earnings have not been assessed yet for the week, your data has not been matched with a brand, or you dropped out of a brand community or it has ended.
