Please explain Sunshine Rewards....

[DisneyMomma81]

I noticed a couple people posted about this program, I had not heard of this before now. Please let me know what this is.

I'm as clueless as you...

Sunshine Rewards is a great program that pays you for shopping through their links, doing surveys and doing offers. You can cash out to Paypal or get gift cards (including Disney).

There are a lot of Disney lovers over there!

interesting I have never heard of it before either.

It's a great program! I'm taking a little over $200 in Disney gift cards in May and paid for half my Disney cruise in October just through shopping I would have done anyway and surveys.

Check out the Rewards program board on here for more information (or I am happy to answer questions)

I, too, have been VERY happy with Sunshine Rewards. I do quite a bit of online shopping through their links (both personal and business) and I turn my rewards into Disney gift cards that I tuck away in my wallet for fun at Disney, both WDW and DLR!

I don't believe we are allowed to put a link to them but doing a google search should garner you some links to choose from. They have a great forum as well.

You turn rewards into Disney gift cards or Disney Dollars! Very cool. You can get points in your account from shopping through their links, completing offers (sign-ups for mailing lists, etc.) or paid clicks. It is a great way to earn a little extra vacation money!

I started last May to have some extra spending money for WDW and in 3 months was able to cash out $170 in disney gift cards. There are a few things you can do to build up your account:
1)daily greenfield survey ($0.90)
2)daily OTX survey (($0.75)
3)daily Your 2 cents survey ($0.60)
4)daily scratch games (up to $0.03)
5)paid clicks (not daily, but i always check 1st thing when i log on)
6)sign up for the forums (i think $0.10, but more importantly will help you learn more about sunshine rewards and the members can answer any questions you may have. it'll also let you know what free offers are automatic credits)

I've earned over $600 in a little over 9 months and less than $10 was from shopping. The bulk of my earning are from surveys.

I'm a member but haven't been able to get over $7.00 in about 9 months. I check the surveys and free clicks, but find I hardly ever qualify for the surveys. I don't shop online that often so don't get anything there, and I really found that alot of the things I could sign up for would flood my mailbox with lots of spam. I'm glad it's worked for so many, but not much luck for me. I do like My Points as it's so much easier to earn stuff..I've already eaten at Rainforest cafe on their dime..I wish MyPoints would offer Disney gift cards!

I find that if I don't get into a survey immediately, I try again after an hour or 2. I'm a SAHM so I have the time to check throughout the day. More often than not, I'm able to get into 1 or 2 surveys a day.

Definitely set up a gmail account as you will definitely get lots of spam. I have 3 or 4 emails just for sunshine rewards freebie offers.

I also do mypoints and it's definitely alot easier but my payout with sunshine rewards is 4 times more than mypoints. And since I have the time, I might as well earn some vacation money.

That's how it works for me. Since I'm not a SAHM I can't click until I get home from work, this just doesn't work for me as well as MyPoints does. And yes, we eat at RFC almost every trip and I have a $25 gift card every time.

I'm not a SAHM but I can still do very well. It does take a bit of patience but it is worth it. Just ordering my photos through the site gets me tons. And I just ordered a gift basket for my work and will get almost $10.

Hmmm, maybe we are in different time zones. All I know is everytime I try to get onto SR I don't have anything to do..maybe it's my settings, I don't know. I do know that MP works much better for me.

Well there are three daily survey opportunities, but you don't always get one on the first try. Even if it says there are no surveys for you today you can still try again. You usually get that message if they think you went to fast so keep it slow.

The main way to make money with SR is the daily surveys and shopping. Many people have good luck with the offers (definately use a separate email) but many of them aren't available up here so I tend to stick with surveys and shopping.

If you are struggling, definately check out the forum. Users of the forum tend to earn more because they learn from each other.

Thanks! I appreciate the feedback.

Thanks! I appreciate the feedback.

No problem! For a little bit of fun - if you are on Facebook there is a contest being run on the Sunshine Rewards fan page (just do a search and it should come up). You could win an ipod shuffle or a 50 dollar Amazon gift certificate!

I have a question about cashing out Disney Dollars. The site says that they are not responsible if they are lost in the mail, but doesn't have the same wording with the Disney Gift Cards. Has anyone ever had trouble with the disney dollars not making it to them?

 

[bbangel]

I've never had a problem but the Disney dollars go through the mail and are essentially like cash so they can't be replaced. The gift cards go through the mail but there are numbers so the cards can be cancelled and reissued if they get lost.

Hope that helped!

 

[victorandbellasmom]

I've only cashed our for disney dollars once and I receieved them just fine.
