A friend just pointed this site out to me tonight. Paybox is apparently an up and coming online payment processing company, much like the popular PayPal. Right now they have a special where new users who sign up are labeled as Early Birds. By taking surveys and giving feedback, you earn money in an online account on a daily basis before the full version of this service is launched. Users can also earn money by referring their friends at a rate of five dollars per referral. From what I was told, you can't cash the money in, but once PayBox is launched, you'll be able to use it for goods through a number of online stores, including eBay which I use very frequently.
There are a few rules. You must take at least one survey per week, and you must subscribe to them either through e-mail, or through a number of available social networking sites including Facebook and Twitter.
All in all it sounds like an interesting experiment to try out, and I'd advise anyone who's curious to go ahead and sign up!
thanks for this. just made an account and going to try and get $20 everyday. do you happen to know how long this is going on for?

ReplyDeleteI don't actually know, but I'm hoping it'll be at least a month or two. They do have jobs listed for programmers so maybe they still have a lot of work left before they put this thing up. Cross your fingers!
seems like a good idea maybe this will replace paypal in a few years
ReplyDeleteinformative post.
ReplyDeletei like that paypal is getting some competition, its never good to have only 1 company doing something
sweet, I'mma look into it.
ReplyDeletecould be interesting, but will wait until the site is fully operational
ReplyDeleteI'm usually skeptical with this stuff, but it never hurts to try.
ReplyDeletei usually dont really trust sites like this, but if they've teamed up with ebay and recommended by you, i might give them a go. I could use a couple of dollars too
ReplyDeleteSounds really interesting, hope they keep their promises...
ReplyDeleteI never used paypal.. I prefer moneybookers.. So I might just skip it :)
ReplyDeletemmm I remember a similar deal a few years back, can't remember whatever happened to the company of the account I had. Will be interesting to see how this turns outs.
ReplyDeleteMike,
Lifehack's guide to forecasting the weather without gadgets out now!
I'm going to check it out, thanks.
ReplyDeletepaypal is irreplaceable
ReplyDeletelooks suspicious..I prefer Paypal.
ReplyDeleteif only i had the time.
ReplyDeletelet me know if you make any money
ReplyDeleteHopefully it's something that can knock paypal back into line - they've been enjoying a pretty strong monopoly on online payment options..
ReplyDeletecool
ReplyDeletenot to be a downer but i wouldn't get your hopes up on this. i have a business degree and this kind of thing just screams marketing gimmick. no starter company has this kind of cash to give away, or equivalent credit to established affiliates (ebay, for example). i think either the company won't get off the ground and nothing will happen or when it 'opens' your credit will be redeemable at other starter businesses with very little to offer you.
ReplyDeletebut i realise you're not investing much time, it's just....highly unlikely anything good will appear from it.
Cool, thanks for the info.
ReplyDeletesounds like a scam... BUT HEY :) I'm probably going to try it anyway xD
ReplyDeleteill stick to paypal

ReplyDeleteI totally support this idea, I think this will replace paypal one day and I sure fucking hate paypal, every day I drive 101 north and I see paypal hq, makes me hate them so much, they took about 100 bucks from me :(
ReplyDeletePayBox is sweet, no doubt.
ReplyDeleteWas the guys from twitter setting up something like this?
ReplyDeleteI remain skeptical but thank you for the heads up :)
ReplyDeletedunno if ill ever use it
ReplyDeleteThese kinds of things are the future of the internet. Monetizing surfing is totally the way to go.
ReplyDeleteMight sign up just to check it out.
ReplyDeletelooks good
ReplyDeleteLooks interesting, may have to try it out tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI am always leary of these types of things. I'll check it out anyway though.

interesting blog dude!
ReplyDeleteI like your ideas here :)
ReplyDeleteIll definitely check that out.
ReplyDeletehmm this is interesting.. might try it out
ReplyDeleteI'd like to first see some payment proofs ;)
ReplyDeletepaypal
ReplyDeleteYeah, what James T said here. How will they be able all those people who signed up for the money?
ReplyDeleteHm, I'll have to check this out. Although, paypal is entangled with many other big companies so I think they might have a hard time surviving.
ReplyDeletethanks for the post. It's nice to know there are other options for payment. :)
ReplyDeletethats a good idea thanks for the info
ReplyDeleteyour about me is cool i like it
