Hey there! I've been using Clixsense for a while, and I decided to write a guide to it becouse many of my referrals don't really understand what is the best way to make money there.
TLDR: complete everyday your checklist, and make money mostly from offers, surveys and tasks (as soon as you get lv3 on crowdflower you will get a great choice of tasks to complete). Don't expect to make money only watching ads! It's a medium term commitment
First, I chose this site becouse it has really a lot of offers, tasks and surveys available for people in Europe, Asia and even Africa - there are international forums in Indian, English, French, Greek, Turkish, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese, Netherland and many other. It's truly a global site.
There are many ways to earn money: PTC ads, paying a few cents each, so they are not really worth your time, you should only watch them to unlock your checklist bonus (more on this later); tasks, offers, surveys and Clixgrid, a luck-based game where you can win up to 10$ just clicking on a grid and watching an ad for 10 seconds. Only 30 chances per day, 60 if you are a premium member.
I make most of my money completing surveys and offers. The daily surveys available will pay from 0.85 to 1$ each, and are a reliable way to earn money everyday; plus if you complete your profile you will receive random invitations to surveys with different pays. Like in every other survey site, you will get kicked sometimes, but the key is not to fail the tests and stick to your answers. However I found out that you will be admitted in most surveys if you are full employed and 30+. Friendly tip: if the survey ask you if you or a friend/family member work in a specific field, always answer "None of these" as they are looking for an unbiased and impartial opinion. If they only ask where are you working, answer honestly. Sometimes you will see surves marked with a red flag: they have an higher pay (1.5$+) but will be credited only after 30 days. They are pretty rare and always flagged.
Offers come from third party sites, and many of them consist of other surveys or downloading apps. Few offers require a subscription fee and have an high pay: I've never done those so it's up to you. However there are really a lot of free offers so you can stick to those. Download the app, complete the survey or play the game, and wait to be paid.
Tasks are an interesting concept, and are done via Crowdflower. At the beginning you need to "level up" your Crowdflower account, only with a few low paying tasks available. However after a few days, if your accuracy is decent, you should be able to achieve lv3 having access to all the tasks, some of them paying 28cents for two minutes of work each. They are pretty different from each other: sometimes you have to classify facts, to evaluate tweets or topics in a forum, to transcribe receipts or watch videos. If you have enough time and don't make mistakes, you will really make a lot of money from tasks, as they are almost endless as soon as you reach lv3. My advice is to be patient and get it, at the beginning you won't have a lot of choices.
Lastly we have a checklist, consisting of: visiting a forum page, watching a few ads, completing either 2 offers or 10 tasks or 1 offer and 1 task. If you complete it, all your daily earnings will be multiplied by 5%; 6%-7% if you complete it for 3 days in a row and use the Clixsense addon for at least 1 hour (just browse the internet normally, you can deactivate it when you are done. It just notifies you when there are tasks/ads or surveys available). If you are premium, the bonus increases to 16%.
If you decide to upgrade to premium for 17$ a year, you will earn double money for tasks and offers, 60 clixgrid chances, more ads and with higher pay, plus you only need 6$ to cashout. As the site states, it's really worth it only if you plan to use the site actively, and it will re pay itself in one or two months, but if you are not very active it's best to stick with the free membership.
There is also a referral campaign: you earn 5%/10% (for premiums) of your affiliates earnings and 1$/2$ as they make 10$/5$, plus a fixed amount for every ad they watch. You can buy clixgrid links and ads via the the site, if you are interested in it.
There are weekly payouts via Paypal, neteller, Payplaza or checks, minimum cashout is 6$ for premium members, 8$ for free members, and you can expect to make them in a week if you follow my guide.
