1.1 Introduction:
Rewards1 is a site that lets you, the user, earn points to gain prizes. You may earn these points from different surveys that are posted on the site. The site provides 4 different categories.

Free -
The title says it all, these surveys are the most abundant on this site, but provide the least amount of points. The surveys may require you to finish the whole survey or just finish a part of it (read the instructions by the survey on Rewards1).

Credit Card Only (Free - Trials) -
You might be wondering, I want more points, but how can I get them for free? Well here is your answer, your credit card. Trials such as eFax, Gamefly, or eMusic are here and can signed up using a credit card. Their trails can last from a week to possibly 1-2 months, you may cancel their membership at any given time. Even though these offers are free, they provide a much higher point total.

Credit Card Only (Pay) -
Want to rack up even MORE points? Paying is the only way. Using your credit card, or possibly your paypal account, you can pay for different sites to credit. Sites range from book clubs to opening a bank account, and points can go up to as much as a staggering 70 points! If you're out of free offers to do, I recommend going to this category if you want to rack up some quick and easy points.

Cellphone -
These offers require a cellphone (obviously). Things ranging from ringtones to just simply putting in your PIN. I have never actually use this method, since I do not own a cellphone. You should try it yourself though.

1.2 Referrals:
There is yet another way to earn points, by referrals. Referrals are links that are given out to the public on forums, youtube, myspace, xanga, etc. (Your referral link can be found Here (http://www.rewards1.com/referrer.php)) If a person signs up under you and completes offers, you gain 20% from the offers. You may also refer as many people as you wish!

ex:
Bob signs up under Richard
Bob completes a offer that credits for 1 point
Richard receives 20% of 1 point, resulting in Richard gaining .20 points
<Repeat for every offer Bob does>

***1.21 How To Get Referrals
1. Create a Blog

If you create your own blog, you can show people how this site is legit and how it works. Make sure your blog is informative and organized, also include your referral link several times through it. Link your blog from your signature on a forum or spread it around to your family or friends.

2. Post Ref Links in Forums

Sites such as FreebieScout, CheapAssGamer, and others allow you to put your referral banner inside your signature. After you do that, just post away. After a month of being a member on CAG, you gain access to their "Referral Central" part of the forum, and you can create your own thread based on this site.

3. Tell Friends and Family

Telling your Friends and Family are a great way to earn points. You will be able to contact each other and help each other out. Furthermore, they know they can trust you.

4. AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Xfire, etc.

AIMing, MSNing, etc. will help get some decent referrals as well. Very simple and you are more trusted in this situation.

1.3 Prizes:
There is already a nice collection of items to order from the "Available Items" section. If you would like to order something that isn't in there, you may custom order your prizes. You may order prizes from Amazon.com by submitting a ticket through the Support (http://www.rewards1.com/support.php) section of the site. Orders ordered from Amazon that total above $25 will include free shipping, otherwise you will have to pay the shipping cost of the item.

1.4 Surveys:
You do surveys to earn points to order your prizes. As explained in [1.1], there are 4 different categories of surveys. Each survey ranging in different amount of points. My way of completing surveys:


1. Click on the desired survey you wish to do
2. Complete the survey all the way through with TRUE information
3. Clear your cookies
---->You can download the program CCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com/) to clear
your cookies for you
---->If you have the browser Mozilla Firefox, you can clear your cookies by going to:
[Tools] --> [Options] --> [Privacy] --> [Show Cookies] --> [Delete All Cookies]

4. Keep the survey up for about 5 minutes before closing the window.
5. Repeat Steps 1-4 for other surveys


Recommendation: I use the "period trick" while doing surveys. This means I use a period inside my email when it asks me for my email address.

ex: bob.13.4@hotmail.com
lu.cy4.15@hotmail.com
r.icky571@hotmail.com

1.5 Rules:
You must abide to the rules and follow them, or your account may be banned.

Great start, EL!
Keep it up. This will really help not only newcomers but the rest of us too.
I'd better inform one of my referrals about this.

EL, waiting 5 minutes before closing the page, will that make a big difference? I'm just wondering because that could also play a role (there's a bigger issue I have yet to resolve) in why I'm not getting credited.

It's good to leave the page open from 2-5 minutes after you complete it. It's not a big factor, but it should help.

Hey uhm, what i DONT understand is that. Rewards1.com is telling everyone to tell your friends and FAMILY about this. well i have 7 computers around my house. My father is using his account for Rewards1.com and i am using mine. Why should we both get banned?

You might want to add to the original post, in order to get the points from the cellphone offers, the companies will charge you $10 to your phone bill when you receive the pin number and submit it to the site.

Gotta read the fine print and know what you're getting into.
