Project PayDay.com Review - Scam or Not!
For a few months now, I’ve seen a lot of Project PayDay.com ads all over the web and search results. (I make it a habit to do searches related to my industry just to see what’s hot at the moment.) I have to admit - when I first stumbled across Project Payday I thought it looked a lot like so many other scam sites out there. I noticed that ProjectPayDay.com ads were being shown a lot on my other site Work At Home Careers.com via adsense. But I never really took the time to look into it. I even received an email from one of my subscribers about it. So I referred her to my scam section so she could do the research.
Again, no interest on my end. A few weeks later I received an email from the owner asking me to promote the program. I get a lot of these offers because of my other site. And I have one major rule, the opportunity has to be free for me to heavily promote it on my site and it has to be legitimate. Usually the fact that it is free kills any chance of it turning out to be a scam. And if by some miracle it does end up being a scam. I rest easy knowing that none of my visitors or subscribers had lost any of their money.
So I asked the owner my usual questions:
* Is this opportunity free to my users? (Yes!)
* Is this a scam or get rich scheme? (No, but of course I didn’t take his word for it.)
* How much can I earn and how much can my users earn? (Pretty decent money)
So I decided to learn more, I actually saw something that I don’t think I’ve ever seen before …
They actually come right out and tell you that you will NOT get rich using this program. I thought that was interesting, so I keep reading and ultimately signed up to check out this program in detail.
I must say as soon as I was in the member section, I already knew that this had potential. But I’m a skeptic by nature because of this industry but I’m not a cynic so I read through the site with an open mind.

ProjectPayDay.com is basically a website that gives you step by step directions on how to earn money doing get paid offers. Get paid offers are exactly what they sound like, you get paid to do offers. Usually how it works is that you join a site like FusionCash.com for free, Log in, pick offers that are of interest to you, do the offers, and get paid. It’s really that simple. The offers can range from trying out a subscription of blockbuster.com for free, or filling out a survey form. Either case you get paid a certain amount of money for trying one or more of these offers. And trust me they have a lot to choose from! What you can earn can range from $.50 to $50.
So at first I really didn’t understand what Project PayDay.com was bringing to the table. But apparently there are other techniques that can be used to make money with Get Paid offers that I wasn’t aware of. So ProjectPayDay.com goes into 3 methods to really maximize the money you can make.
I won’t really go into all the details of each because their free website and QuickStart tutorials does a better job of this. But I’ll say this, they do provide a very concise step-by-step Training Guide, that covers the 3 different methods for making anywhere from $200 to $5,000+ a month working just a few hours a day.
… there is even a video done by 2 of their members where they tell you step-by-step exactly what they both did to average over $2000 in their first month, and how one is already making $5,000+ a month by month 3.
Overall The concepts revealed were eye opening … and the best part is that 2 of the 3 methods don’t even require that you actually do any offers yourself.
I was very impressed with the information. I know for a fact you can make money with get paid progams because I’ve done many of them via FusionCash.com and other sites. But ProjectPayDay.com shows you a way sustaining a long term living with these programs.
It’s one of the only programs I know where you could actually earn money today! Not waiting for a check a month from now or waiting for a work at home employer to hopefully hire you. It’s something that can be started right away.
I think the best thing of all is that in addition to the training guide they also provide over 15 different QuickStart videos that show you exactly what to do, step-by-step, so you literally can’t fail.
There is even an entire section in the Training Guide that shows you exactly what to do in order to make money within hours of starting.
Project PayDay isn’t the "sexiest" program out there, but when the dust settles all that matters is that it really does work. If you’re still struggling to make money online, Project PayDay is THE program for you.
At the very least you should try the program because it’s totally free. So you have nothing to lose in my humble opinion. But opinions are like ….holes, everyone has them. 
I can totally see how Project PayDay.com may not be the best option for many. But I’m a firm believer in giving things a try and making your own decision.
So let me know what you think.

Liar, liar, pants on fire!
The offers are not free. You must buy something or pay shipping charges at least.
This does not fall into the free category.

Hey John,
Thanks for your feedback. From what I understand you don’t have to select the offers that require you to pay shipping. And with some of the other offers, they’re risk free meaning that you can cancel before they ever charge your credit card. But that’s assuming you stay organized enough. But aside from those two type of offers, there are free ones that require no out pocket expenses at all.
I’m going to email the folks at ProjectPayDay.com and have them chime in. Maybe I’m missing something here.
August 20th, 2007 at 11:07 am |
Eddy is absolutely correct.
I’d also like to remind you that if anyone chooses to do an offer with a small S&H fee, we rebate them double the fee within 24 hours via PayPal or check. In this case the user actually makes anywhere from $2 to $10 profit just for signing up.

I agree with John, free should mean free, not sign up for a free trial offer which requires you to give up your credit card number. That is what promotes skeptesism from people looking for @ home jobs in the first place (at least for me). Also, Payday says this is a limited time offer and after that you will have to pay their subscription fee of $34.00, so there it is not free! or you can pay it now if you do not want to do the trial offers

Hi,
I joined a couple of days ago and I really believe this program has promise. However, I am very confused. The freelunchroom.com board is filled with warnings about not cancelling offers. Most “Average Joes” like myself are broke to begin with. That is why they are on the Project Payday website to begin with. Using myself as an example, I had to sign up with 3 offers yesterday to get one 1 full credit to go green. I made $20. It cost me $7.82 in shipping fees. I do see the potential for profit but I simply cannot keep the 3 programs after the trial period (even though I tried to pick offers that I would actually try). They cost anywhere from $39.90 to $59.90 per month for keeping them. I will have absolutely no choice not to cancel or it would literally ruin me. (I’m talking car payment and mortgage checks bouncing and plunging me into a deep hole that I could not possibly climb out of.) For this reason, this program scares me. Does Project Payday really expect “average joe’s” to keep these programs and still make money?

Hi Rosanne,
Thanks for your comments. I’ve done get paid programs before and I have definitely canceled programs after giving them a fair try. I agree it wouldn’t be cost effective for us the average Joe to make money if we were being bled dry by those monthly fees of some of the trial programs we do.
I think what freelunchroom.com is expressing is that you should really only try to do programs that you have a real interest in. Because chances are if you like it then you’ll stay. I think where there is some abuse is when people just join programs that they have no interest in at all, cancel really quickly and then that raises red flags to the advertisers. This then puts everyone in a bad place because advertisers won’t pay the get paid sites and we as average joes can’t earn money. So it’s a fine balance.
Advertisers are paying us because they hope to get some customers. But if they get no customers then it’s flushing money down the toilet for them.
So I understand from both points of view. But considering your circumstances. You have to do what is best for you.

When I signed up for project payday I signed up for the auctionmonster.com program. I paid $1.87 for shipping and I did read that they will charge $59.99 a month to your card if you DO NOT cancel within the 10-day free trial. I actually became interested and looked into auctionmonster.com for the purpose of selling electronic products on EBay. They actually let you post items on Ebay to sell right away (within the 10-day free trail). Auction Monster works with a company called ‘Doba’ to offer all the selling products at the so-called wholesale price (about 250,000 products). What sucks about Doba is that the wholesale cost of the products for the seller cost more than many many retail prices of competitors!!!!!!!!! For example, I was really interested in selling LCD 19-inch computer monitors. I was about to get ready to post a listing on Ebay. It was one by the brand Acer. The wholesale price of one was $217 with a shipping cost of $13.($230) Doba says the MSRP is $355.00 and the suggested starting bid to sell on Ebay is $265. Weellllll, I did some research by looking for competitors who were selling the same item on Ebay and I was surprised. Very surprised. Not one competitor was selling this product even close to my wholesale cost of $217. I found one for $149.99 (retail price) and $30 shipping!!!!!! I did not find one, I MEAN ONE, that sold the product for more than $200 (with shipping included). THAT ALONE, made me say Doba and Auctionmonster you are history!!!! I am canceling this ASAP!……and……..I DID!!!

Hi Cat,
Thanks for the comment. This is exactly a perfect example as a legitimate reason to cancel on of the offers one does. Thanks for sharing. =)

I have a few friends that are doing this and making money, so after investigating I decided to give it a try. The Project Payday site has some of the most thorough training material I’ve ever seen. The video tutorials are excellent and really help you understand how to get started.
If you want to sit around and wait for money to fall into your lap, this is not the site for you, but if you’re willing to put a little effort into it, you will make money. After working their method 1 for a while, I’m moving into method 2 and hope to make even more money there.

I signed up for Project PayDay a while ago. I really haven’t used my account yet, but I recently contacted their customer service and was amazed at how quickly my questions were answered. I’ve always heard horror stories about never being able to get a response with on-line businesses, so I was pleasantly surprised.
November 12th, 2007 at 6:04 pm |
I tried to join Project PayDay. I signed up for one of those “free” offers. Paid the $1.97 shipping, received confirmation from the offer and have waited all day to get my account verified with Project PayDay. I sent them an email with the confirmation as instructed and have heard nothing. Did it take along time for others too?

I agree with rosanne. i checked out their info and it sounds so simple. BUT in the faq section they do say that if you cancel your trial offers, you will not be credited for them, in return making method #1 pointless. I was on the same page as rosanne in thinking “o.k, if i don’t cancel, whats going to happen to me next month when i start getting charged for these numerous offers.” I believe that the program could work for the first month as far as making you money, but i really don’t see how you can continue to make money in following months with such minimal work.

The other down side to signing up for any supposed free offers or trials is getting swarmed with email. Because of this, I couldn’t with good conscience recommend it.

Hi Bobby,
Thanks for your comments.
It’s funny you mention that because it’s easy to address just by setting up a separate valid email account for this opportunity or any of the get paid to try offers.
We actually recently covered some additional tips that can be followed to address some of the negative aspects of these opportunities in a video:
http://www.workathomenoscams.com/2008/05/07/getpaidtotryoffers/
But with that said, the excessive emails can be annoying if you don’t manage it by creating another email account soley for the purpose of this type of opportunity. Thanks again for your feedback. It’s really appreciated.
By the way, I like your website.

Thanks a lot Eddy for recommending ProjectPayday. I have completed my first offer (with Extremebuys)and he is a great mentor. Now I’m just waiting for tomorrow to get paid, and continue to my next offer. At first, I thought it was a little overwhelming, but I kept at it and everything worked out. So, I say that to say this, anyone if I can do it anyone can JUST DON’T GIVE UP.
