Earning extra money online has never been as accessible as it is today. With a variety of platforms and reward sites available, it is possible to turn free time into lucrative opportunities. Cashback, which enables this earning, is an American strategy that has conquered Brazil and the world for almost four decades and is as popular as ever.
A survey by Wildfire Systems Inc., released by PR Newswire, shows that 90% of shoppers have shown greater interest in receiving rewards and cashback when they shop. Furthermore, as indicated by the survey, discounts positively influence e-commerce conversion rates: 82% of consumers said they are more likely to complete a purchase when they have a discount or reward.
How do reward platforms work?
Reward platforms are popular among consumers for offering ways to earn money or get benefits through everyday activities like shopping and participating in surveys. Both methods are advantageous as they provide an accessible and efficient way to earn money or save on everyday purchases. They are spaces for people to share their experiences and enhance their independence and freedom for consumption.
No MeSeems, a Mind Miners platform with over 10 years in the market and more than 5 million registered accounts, it is possible to earn an average of up to 500 points by responding to 10 surveys. People who respond to surveys on the platform earn points that can be exchanged for over 25 rewards, such as money in the account through Pix – a novelty of the platform, cell phone top-ups, credits to use at McDonald’s, iFood, Outback, and in stores like Americanas.com, Casas Bahia, Renner Stores, among others. Users earn rewards for participating in market studies and making purchases on the platform itself, which provides some financial relief in day-to-day expenses.
“The other possibility is to accumulate points in our marketplace. There are more than 150 online stores with up to 24 points per real spent. A person can also create and consume content about products and services. So, in addition to being paid for surveys, they can ask for suggestions or indicate any consumption experience they had with any other brand,” details MindMiners’ CEO, Renato Chu. “With the launch of the Pix redemption, MeSeems reaffirms its commitment to making its users’ rewards even more practical and accessible, turning their experiences into money quickly and securely.”
