How to Earn Your First $5.00 on Earnit

Set yourself a goal of $5.00 for your first week on Earnit. Getting there takes you through everything that matters: starting an offer, finishing surveys and seeing rewards credited to your balance. By then, you'll know how much time you want to give the site.

Our guide to how to start earning shows the screen for each of those steps.

Your first session: set up, then start small

Do three things before your first offer, because they make everything after them easier:

1. Verify your email address. Every withdrawal needs a verified email address, and so does your welcome case.
2. Open your welcome case with the Free case button. The welcome case always pays a prize straight into your balance.
3. Complete your survey profile, a few short questions that match you with surveys.

Then start small, in this order:

Order	What to pick	Why it goes there
1	One short app or game offer	The offer takes the longest of the three, so start it first
2	Two or three short surveys	Surveys fill the time, and most survey rewards are credited within minutes
3	A short task from the tasks page	A short task rounds off the session

Pick a first offer with a step you can reach in one sitting, so you see how offers work before you commit to a long one.

The rest of your first week: short sessions, most days

Plan short sessions on most days rather than one long one. New surveys are added every day, and each day you earn $1.00 in confirmed rewards, you can open that day's case in your daily streak for free.

Keep one game offer going through the week, because its later steps usually pay the most and the steps you finish count even if you stop. Look at your task history now and then. A reward marked Pending is waiting for the partner to confirm it, or is held for a set time first, and most are credited automatically.

Your first week has two goals: your first $5.00, and finding the ways to earn you enjoy. The second one keeps you earning after the first.

Habits that keep your balance growing

• Pick by what an offer pays for your time, not by the biggest reward on the page: divide what it pays by the minutes it takes.
• Read the steps before you start. What an offer pays for is on its Rewards tab.
• Keep one honest survey profile, and answer the same way in every survey.
• Finish each offer on the device you started it on, with your ad blocker turned off.
• Withdraw on a rhythm you choose, such as once a week, and check your payment details each time.

The habits that make any offer pay explain two of these in more detail: reading an offer's steps, and finishing it on the device you started on.

When you reach your first $5.00

Reaching your first $5.00 means you've seen the whole path, from starting an offer to a reward credited to your balance. You can withdraw once your balance reaches the minimum for the payout method you choose, and your first withdrawal also needs a minimum of confirmed rewards you earned yourself. Comparing the payout methods helps you choose one before you withdraw.

Start on your earn page: verify your email, open your welcome case and pick one short offer.
