Descriptions

Codes

Code Green: The site has officially been tested and proven by Cashie.net that it does pay and/or deliver.

Code Yellow: The site is still being tested and/or still in pending status and no payment has ever been received due to not meeting minimum payment yet or the site has been taking long to pay. Some additional info may be posted, such as notifying if it has been researched and concluded that it does pay or that it is a bit or somewhat risky to try.

Code Red: The site is either too risky or just a plain old scamming site.

Code Gray: Sites with this code means that the site has not paid (or does not have a paying feature) but it is not important due to the site itself not specializing in paying. Such type of sites include: advertising sites, safe lists, and traffic exchanges (where their specialty is to give you traffic, not money).

Overall Rating

The rating system is based on multiple factors (see below). The rating factors are calculated and converted to a 5 star rating system for an overall rating. Rating DOES NOT represent amount of money, credits or points you can make.

Example of overall rating display:

Rating Factors

To check for each rating factor for each site, hover over red-orange "Overall Rating" links to display the number of stars of each factor category. The more stars, the better rating it has. Here is a more detailed description of what each factor represents:

• Look (3 stars) - The look and professionalism in design:
  1 = Bad; 2 = Average; 3 = Good or Great
• Server (4 stars) - The servers' connection stabilities:
  0 = amazingly bad; 1 = terrible; 2 = average or so-so; 3 = good; 4 = fantastic!
• Security (6 stars) - The login securities features (1 star for each):
  Both username input & password input; password longer than 10 characters long; special characters in passwords accepted; captcha or security code input required; optional second password input; and SSL or other encrypting security feature included. For sites that have a low score on security, do remember that payment processors have their own security, which this rating system does not rate. For example, EasyHits4U has low security for logging in, however, paying and receiving money through their chosen payment processors (PayPal & AlertPay) are very secure.
• Function (3 stars) - The site functions (such as code errors, broken links, having to refresh a lot, not being credited, etc.):
  0 = stay away; 1 = too many errors; 2 = few to some errors here and there; 3 = rarely any errors or no errors at all
• Features (3 stars) - The features, options, free stuff, etc.:
  1 = very few features; 2 = good amount of features; 3 = lots of features!
• Easiness (3 stars) - For navigating the site, understanding how to make money, and/or how to make money (same goes for advertising credits and points):
  1 = Difficult; 2 = Average; 3 = Pretty Easy
• Admin/Support (3 stars) - About the administrator(s) and or their support team
  1 = Admin or support is pretty bad and may send too many promotional emails; 2 = Admin or support need to improve on their professional persona/writing a little, and/or answer queries within three days, and/or send less annoying promotional emails, however, they're not so bad and are pretty helpful, supportive and may surprise you in a good way from time to time; 3 = Fantastic support or professional admin, replies are fast, and promotional emails are sent a few times
• PAYMENT RELIABILITY (5 stars) - Each star in Payment Reliability is multiplied by 5:
  0 stars = Does not pay; 1 star = does not pay though it used to; 2 stars = very risky - most likely doesn't pay all the time; 3 stars = a little risky or takes too long to pay every time; 4 stars = It pays but either not instantly, takes more than a month, minimum payment is pretty high, or a combination of any; 5 stars = it pays -- either instantly, within a month, or is simply very reliable!
• EARNING TIME (5 stars) - Earning Time replaces the Payment Reliability rating on some programs. Each star here is multiplied by 5 as well. Earning time to meet cashout could take:
  0 stars = 3.5+ years, even with referrals; 1 star = 2.5+ years, without referrals (or 1¼ years with referrals); 2 stars = 1.5 years, without referrals (or less than a year, with referrals); 3 stars = around half a year, without referrals (or around 3 months, with referrals); 4 stars = less than three months, without referrals (or around a month, with referrals); 5 stars = around a months, even without referrals!
