What is AllAdvantage.com all about?
AllAdvantage.com is a community of Internet users in which members get paid to surf the Web. AllAdvantage.com also pays its members to refer their friends to the community (and for those friends to refer more friends, etc.). AllAdvantage.com is supported by advertising sponsors who recognize the value of Internet users, and who make it possible for us to pay members.

When you sign up, you download and install the Viewbar™, a message window about an inch tall that sits at the bottom of your browser. AllAdvantage.com uses the Viewbar™ to deliver our sponsors’ messages and useful, entertaining content to members. Over time, a member’s Viewbar builds a unique profile of preferences and interests, so messages can be precisely tailored to what members want to see.

How do I get paid to surf the Web?
Sign up, watch ads, get paid. It really is that simple. The first step is to sign up and become a member. It's fast and it's free (takes about one minute) and there’s no survey to fill out! Click Here to join and start getting paid. 

As soon as you sign up, you get a member ID number. You record that number and a password you select, then go to our Viewbar™ download page. The Viewbar™ is a communications device about an inch tall that sits at the bottom of your browser and delivers consumer messages and useful, entertaining content from our sponsors. Log on with your member ID and password, follow the prompts, and download and install the software. 

Then launch your browser and surf the Web! The Viewbar™ opens automatically and records your time while you’re actively surfing, and we pay you for it. That’s all you have to do. 

However, if you want to take even MORE advantage, then refer your friends and family, because we pay you for them too! Click here to see our referral center where we have tips for referring other people to AllAdvantage.com.

How does the referral payment system work?
The chart below helps demonstrate the AllAdvantage.com referral system. AllAdvantage.com pays you an hourly rate for surfing the Web with your Viewbar™. When you refer friends and family (your "direct referrals"), you get paid an hourly rate when they surf with the Viewbar™. When they refer their friends and family (your "extended referrals"), you also get paid an hourly rate when extended referrals surf with the Viewbar™. Extended referrals continue for four levels past your original referral, and there is no limit to the number of referrals you can accumulate. Check out our Get Paid to Surf the Web page for details on our current hourly rates.

Where does the money come from?
AllAdvantage.com’s sponsors pay us to send messages to our members via the Viewbar™, whether the messages are traditional ads, special offers, or other deals. We pass money on to AllAdvantage.com members as a payment for your time and attention, and as a reward for selecting our sponsors when you’re purchasing goods and services. 

This is a great deal for advertisers – they can send personalized messages to an active, growing community of Internet users and trade on the goodwill between AllAdvantage.com and its members. It’s a great deal for members, because in addition to the money, you get messages of real interest to you, that are tailored to your preferences, and a variety of special offers, interesting content, and other deals.

When do I get paid?
Each month that your account exceeds US$20, you will be sent a check by mail from AllAdvantage.com (amounts below $20 are carried forward to the next month, and that month's surfing added to the total). You can check your account balance (how much money we owe you) and the number referrals in your direct and extended referral groups (your earning power) at the Account Center

When can I start?

Are there any rules or restrictions?
There are some rules, and all are intended for the benefit of AllAdvantage.com members:

  • Each person can only sign up once, creating an account for him or herself, and may not establish an account on behalf of anyone else. Nor can accounts be transferred between people.
  • No spamming. AllAdvantage.com strictly forbids spamming to get referrals. This means you can only tell people you know or who explicitly agree to receive your invitation to be referred. See our anti–spam policy.
  • The number of payable hours per month is 25. Over time, that number will increase.
  • You have to surf yourself to get the benefit of your referrals' surfing. If you surf only 10 hours in a month, and your referrals each surf 25, you will be credited with 10 hours of paid referral time for each referral.
  • Members who deal with AllAdvantage.com in a fraudulent fashion will forfeit their memberships.
All of this information is in our Membership Agreement, which you need to read before downloading and using the Viewbar™.

What countries is this available in?
AllAdvantage.com membership is available worldwide. The Viewbar™ is currently available in the U.S., U.K., and Canada – with other countries coming soon. 

There’s no reason to delay joining up, even if you don’t have the Viewbar™ yet. Each person can only be signed up under one account, so if you start referring friends and family early you’ll benefit the most when we have sponsors in your country. We'll update you on AllAdvantage.com’s international status as details become available. Until then, sign up and visit our Referral Center to get helpful tips on how to tell your friends and family about the exciting opportunities that AllAdvantage.com has to offer.

What else can I get at AllAdvantage.com?
We plan to offer our members cash rewards for online shopping at leading Internet retailers, auction rebates, group discounts, and richer content on the Viewbar™, just to name a few. We’re starting up a digital content division that will be offering software utilities of one sort or another. And we’re always on the outlook for new ways to deliver value. Our objective is ultimately to make the Viewbar™ worth at least US$1,000 a year to each member. 
 

Is the Viewbar™ compatible with the Macintosh?
The Viewbar™ will be available for use with Mac soon, as we are currently developing this version of the software. Members will be notified as soon as our Mac Viewbar™ becomes available.
