| Weekly Pay and Locked Funds |
Jan 24, 2010 |
|
Some of the offers are higher risk offers and some simply require extra time for the advertiser to review the leads from the offers so these offers are considered Locked Funds. What this means is the offer will approve but it will go in its own private Balance.
Most every offer that is locked will be released between the 25th and 30th of the month following when it was completed. So if you complete offers between August 1st and 31st that are locked funds. They should be released between Sept 25th and Sept 30th. Some may be released sooner and some may take longer but I would have to say probally 95% of them will release between that time. As soon as those funds are in your balance you may withdraw them and you will be paid the next pay date.
Most members stated this would be easiest because then there is no confusion about what they are allowed to withdraw. So if its in your balance your able to withdraw it. This also means once its released there is no chance of those funds being reversed.
Remember we have switched over to weekly Pay. We are now paying every Friday. Request your withdraw by midnight on Thursday and you will be paid on Friday.

| Conversions are done |
Jan 22, 2010 |
|
We have finally finished converting every account. It was a long process as I had to do each account seperatly. Man oh man I am tired! LOL Been busy hussling since Sunday night. Thought I was done last night but spent the whole day fixing withdraws and fixing balances that were off. If you find a problem with your account please submit a ticket.
Anyways you will find everything should be in order – However, if you had a pending withdraw in December and do not see a withdraw pending in your points section or your cash withdraw section please submit a ticket.
You may now resume normal withdraws and requesting your payments. New payment terms have now begun. All cash withdraws are paid weekly starting Friday. You must have your withdraw submitted by Thursday night at
midnight to be paid on Friday.
All point withdraws are paid Net 30-60. I made a little calendar here so you can see when you requested the withdraw to see when you will get paid for it.

You will see some offers Marked **Net 30**. These particular offers will require advertiser verification before those funds may be released. These offers will be paid on Net 30 terms. So if you request your payment for a **Net 30** offer in February we will send that payment no later then March 30th. Please request these funds as you normally would at the end of the month.
You may now purchase upgrades with your points. Don’t forget you can also use points for giftcards, free advertising on anythingfree4you as well as game entries. I have also made a separate category in the Rewards section for members to withdraw their Daily Click Earnings via the normal withdraw methods such as paypal, check, amazon etc. If there is a method not listed that you want for your Daily Clicks please let me know and I will get it added for you.
Site terms will be updated as soon as I get a moment to change them.
Have a good night

| Daily Clicks / Points Change |
Jan 16, 2010 |
|
I want to keep everyone alerted of the changes and why some changes are being made.
First let’s talk about payments for these Daily Clicks. We have been told by advertisers
“Otherwise, your account status will remain unchanged and all earned commission will still be paid under your existing terms.”
“These click offers will be paid for all traffic after
Jan 31st, 2010 on a Net30-Net60 Basis. This will give us the ability to ensure that everyone's payment is ALWAYS on time, and that any review process”
So this means the advertiser review process is going to take longer to approve these payments.
November earnings as you know were all processed before Christmas to ensure that everyone had extra money for the holidays to get anything else they may need. I just now got paid for those clicks completed in November. So I paid all those earnings out of my own pocket for you guys to ensure you all had a great holiday. This month we have 10 times as many withdraws pending for December earnings. This advertiser has said they should have my account paid by the 4th. So payments for the Daily Clicks, Daily Click Jackpot, & Daily Click referral earnings will be paid as soon as that payment is received while I do not like doing this but with the abundance of earnings from the Daily Clicks I have no choice but to do the Click Earnings this way.
In order for your normal offer payments, contest prizes, referral commissions to not get delayed the Dailies will be converted to points. This is to ensure that all payments from the rest of your payments will be made in a timely manor and not be delayed by the daily clicks.
Now from here on out the Clicks will be a point value. Now because of the trouble by having them be points I will raise them from 3 cents to 4 cents. So you will receive 2 points for each click. You will find the same methods listed under the Points Rewards Screen in a menu specifically for our Daily Click withdraws so you are able to still get Paypal, check, Amazon etc. If there is a method not listed that you want please let me know so I can get it added. The way this will work is say you withdraw 2367 points via the Paypal option then each point will be worth 2 cents. 2367 x .02 = $47.34. So you will receive $47.34 sent to your Paypal when payments are processed.
Now I will need to go thru and manually change everyone over that did offers. So you are going to see your clicks reversed. However after all unpaid clicks have been reversed from your account, you will see Points added back to your account for all the clicks reversed. I will then request your points via the method you of payment you currently have pending. If you do not have a pending payment or your points were not enough to request that method then you will simply find those points in your account.
For referrals you will see all the referrals earnings reversed however when points are added back to a user’s account you will see a credit for those referrals to your points. This will take me several days to do everyone so please be patient as I am doing this. I will be doing one account at a time in order to make sure no mistakes will be made. Your January clicks will be converted and your points will simply be in your account waiting for your withdraw this month.
Now we have changed the point’s converter. You can no longer request your points to be changed into cash. However you can change your cash to points so if you are a few points short of requesting your clicks you change some cash over to do that.
For those of you who have been with me a long time you know that I have always paid early and done everything I could to help make sure everyone was paid for everything. For those of you who are know my reputation speaks for itself I have always shown the most respect towards my members and concerns towards the members well being. I am doing this to make sure the members and site do not get hurt while waiting.
Now here is what I am going to do for you. Now there was talk about going to weekly pay in January. These clicks changed that with so much in earnings being done daily. However since we are converting the clicks to points and processing those separately then as soon as I finish transferring over all the accounts then we will be switching to weekly pay. Certain offers will be still be on a NET30 basis those offers will be marked as such. Another email will go out as soon as I am done converting the accounts to let everyone know that we are on weekly pay.
Also as soon as all accounts are converted I will be processing the normal payment requests. Please bear with me while we make these changes. I appreciate your understanding and your membership and do hope that everyone understands these changes that I am making are for the better of the site and members.

I recieved the following email from Advertiser that offers the Daily Clicks
Partners
From time to time, our advertising partners make changes in the type and quantity of advertising sources they want to work with.
Unfortunately, at this time, we are going to need you to halt all traffic to our sites as the ROI metrics are not meeting our partner requirements.
We need you to take immediate action. All traffic must be stopped NO later than tonight: Tuesday, January 5th, at 11:59 PST.
We are hoping that this is a temporary setback and we can soon explore ways that we can continue our partnership once again.
Otherwise, your account status will remain unchanged and all earned commission will still be paid under your existing terms.
We hope to retain your business and welcome additional opportunities to distribute on a higher-quality basis.
Thank you for your compliance and understanding.
They were not supposed to come down til midnight however most all of them have ended earlier then expected so they have been pulled from the site. I did manage to save a few from another advertiser however the rate is lower. I do not know how long these will be available however I figured something is better then nothing at all. Same rules still apply to these clicks as they did with the higher paying clicks.
In light of this the daily jackpot will end tonight at midnight and will not be continue being used for the daily clicks. I am gonna think of something new to do for the jackpot and will let u know in a few days what we will do.

| Daily Jackpot Change |
Dec 29, 2009 |
|
There will now be 2 winners for the Jackpot. The Jackpot will be split 50/50 down the middle. So if the Jackpot is $31 each winner will win $15.50. This will spread the love around some more then it already has.

| CCURATE instant crediting for the Daily Clicks |
Dec 23, 2009 |
|
Ok we got the final Daily Click Change. We now have ACCURATE instant crediting for the Daily Clicks. Which means when you submit them they will only approve once the advertiser has credited them. It generally just takes a few minutes to approve but can take up to a hour for credit to show up. So no more reversing the clicks. The only time you will have your clicks reversed is if the advertiser tells us your not following the rules of these offers. The 2 rules are you may only do these once per day which means you can not do them on my site then turn around and do them on another site and the other rule is you must click on at least one of the advertiser links.
Now that we have this on accurate instant crediting I will be leaving these on the 24 hour reset. Which means they will reset on their own after 24 hours since the time they approved was. So if you do them at 3pm today they will reset at 3pm tomorrow. Now the offer still stands if you want me to reset them simply submit a ticket after midnight (Clocks is placed on the site) and I will reset them when I have a moment otherwise they will reset on their own each day. Keep in mind there are alot of things on the site I need to get done so if you don't need me to reset them it would be best if you wait. But I do realize sometimes you need them reset early because you wont be around later to do them so I don't mind doing that for you.
All pending Clicks that do not credit for you will be deleted some time between midnight and the time I get up in the morning.
Jackpots will continue to be held at midnight.

| CPC DAILY CLICKS |
Nov 8, 2009 |
|
Please read very carefully and please if there is anything you 100% fully do not understand please reply back to this email and I will answer you.
All members agree when they join the site to follow the rules.
They also agree to not duplicate offers.
You also know that by duplicating offers not only do you put your own accounts at risk but you also put at risk the advertiser getting upset and reversing offers. Which means you don't get paid.
Now we have this wonderful oppurtunity to have offers that reset each day and we can earn money in a great amount of time. I have had many new members come to the site and were able to cashout simply by doing the Daily Clicks we are allowed to run.
However we have some members who are not following the rules. These members can potentially not only ruin it for themselves, the members of this site but they could also ruin it for many other sites.
I added banners to our offers that look like this
I have also have sent many emails not only explaining how to do the offers but also letting members know that you may only do these offers once per day.
I want to make this clear for everyone who does not understand.
You may only do CPC Daily Click Offers ONCE PER DAY!
Doesnt matter if they are in the offers folder or the PTC section!
If you do these offers on another site DO NOT come to this site and complete these offers again in the same day.
I think its safe to say that any site owner would agree with me that if you do these offers on my site DO NOT go to another site and do them in the same day.
I realize its nice to earn money. I realize we all need extra cash. However what's gonna happen if you continue to do this. The advertiser is going to say No more. Don't allow incentive sites to run these offers anymore. Then no one will be making any money.
I have been very nice privatly emailing members if there was an issue. As I don't like to call members out. However I just wanna be sure that everyone knows the rules. I dont want anyone coming to me saying that they were never told they could not do these offers on every site every day.
From now going forward - If you complete these daily clicks then you are agreeing that you understand these rules. You are also agreeing that you are not completing these offers on other sites on the same day that you complete them on Anythingfree4you. If you are found to be duplicating these offers across multiple sites on the same day you will forfeit ALL earnings for your daily clicks. You will also be banned from completing these daily clicks in the future.
I appreciate those of you who are following the rules and want to say thank you very much. I also look forward to working with everyone on making sure these offers are here to stay. Please understand I am not saying any of this to hurt anyones feelings or because I am made at anyone. I just wanna be sure that everyone has the oppurtunity to do these offers and earn from doing these offers.

| Completed offer saying denied |
Sep 18, 2009 |
|
Sorry for those of you who have gotten approval emails today for an offer completed that say the offer did not credit. We were testing a new default function for the denied offers and it was sending it with approved offers also. I will try to be more careful about that in the future. Just for future reference if it should happen again. If the offer email says the offer was completed then it was in fact completed and not denied and you may not have your completed offers reset.

| Verifications & Updating Information |
Sep 2, 2009 |
|
Hey guys,
Keep in mind while I don't require your id for you to withdraw that I do random verification checks. It does not mean you did anything wrong nor does it mean I think you have done anything wrong. Just periodically to keep my affiliates happy I do random checks.
Please be sure that the information on file is up to date and correct. If your account is missing information or it is not valid it can delay your payment reaching you. Also be sure that your information matches your photo id because if you are checked this information needs to match. I am aware some of you have special situations such as a few of wonderful military members so if you have a special need just drop me a line to let me know.
Just to clarify - Valid account information will include your Name, Phone Number, Address, DOB (As I do require member's to be at least 18 years of age). Other information while it is helpful such as Aim etc is not required but always nice to be able to reach a member quickly if I have a question.
I want to touch base on email address's and subscribing to recieved updates and emails. The email address on file should be one you check regularly because I do send out site updates with contests and other important information. Sometimes if I am unable to reach you I also will send a direct mail to you from my email account. I do not spam and you will not recieve 100's of emails per day from us. In fact we can only send out 1 email per day. Any other communication must be done via the site inbox. If you choose not to recieve our emails from the site please check your inbox regularly at least scan the subject line's and if it is something important I will mark it as such so you can skip over emails. The longest and most important email I send out is the one I send on the 1st of each month so please keep an eye on that as that has tons of info from the previous months and what is coming now!
Anyways if you have any questions about this or concerns over the privacy of your information please let me know!

| Approval Testing |
Jul 13, 2009 |
|
You know what drives me bonkers. When I find out an affiliate expired a whole ton of offers and didnt even bother to have the courtesy to send an email letting me know they were expired for who know's how long. What's worse then that affiliates who leave the offers open on their site and they redirect to all sorts of offers. Anyways I removed about 8 pages of Email/Zip Submits that were expired with out any email sent out. I appreciate the member who pointed them out.
What drives me bonkers more then that?
Doing offers that don't credit!
I know you all have been then taking the time to do offers and then they just don't credit. Now in order to help stop that from happening I need to weed out the one's that are not crediting. Not every offer on the site has been attempted so what I will do is move 15 offers at a time to a folder called Approval Testing. If some of you guys would take the time to do some or all of them to test them then I can check the crediting ratio. If the ratio is low then I will remove the offer from the site. I need at least 10 people to attempt the offer so that I can check the ratios accurately.
The folder is located here
I appreciate the help - Once we have the ratios for these 15 offers I will add 15 new offers to the folder to test.
Thanks guys

Hey guys
I just wanted to mention as I have had 2 people email me saying they had not seen an email I sent out about needing some help looking for some offers which were goof ups. For those who helped find them they recieved a $1 promo code. Well after checking these members accounts who said they never got an email about needing help it appeared that they were not subscribed to our general mailings.
Most emails I send are via the Mass Email System as personally and this is just my preference when I get an email from the site I like to be able to read the email in my inbox oppose to having to log into the site to check my emails from them. So a majority of the messages I send are done to normal emails.
If you are unsubscribed to recieve these messages then you will not get them. I send promo codes and special announcements via regular email. So please subscribe to the listings so you can recieve emails. I just want to assure you that you will not be spammed. Our hosting provider will only let us send 1 email to your regular email address per day. All other messages have to be sent via Inbox if I want to send more then 1 message at a time.
Some members have purposely chosen not to recieve emails but others may have accidently unsubscribed at other times.
I want to mention this is no way required of you to subscribe and this does not affect your standing with Anythingfree4you. I just want everyone to be able to get all the messages we send all the time.
To change your account settings to recieve personal emails from me please go to the Edit Account page located here
You will see a box at the bottom that says
Yes, please send me e-mails regarding newsletters and/or notifications.
Check that box and you will be subscribed to recieve our emails.

I have fixed the Jackpot I did not realize it did not reset itself. Actually my fault cause I did not reset it since I was out of town. I had added back the 25 cents per ticket earned this month already which made it $4. Plus I added an additional $5 to the pot since I messed it up. So right now the jackpot at $9. I will add a few offers later on to the jackpot folder.
Also would you prefer it where it is now where its once a month for any number of different offers. Or would you prefer it that the offers are changed out once per week and the jackpot is done weekly.
Please vote here and if you have something else you want to say about the Jackpot contests or ideas you got add please comment on the poll results page

I will be going out of town tomorrow. I will be going to Oklahoma. Not to worry I will still have access to my laptop thanks to my godmother letting me borrow her wireless internet. But being that I am going to be out of town I am not going to process any Turbo or PTC payments until I return. So you may request Turbo and PTC at any time however they will not be processed until June 6th. When I return home payments will resume as normal back to same day payments for Turbo and PTC.
