I'm not talking about beta-testing, or e-sports where you have to be really good to get something. French portal Prizee.com gives access to several flash games, where for each game you get so called bubz points. After making enough of them, we can exchange them into gifts or cash. The site is available in a few languages, including English.
There's a few types of games we can play, mostly logic games (feeding fish in the pond, directing a bunny through a maze), action games, and scratch cards. All of them look pretty cute, and the difficulty level raises the further we go. Most of the logic games have 10 levels in total. Finishing them all gives us some bonus points, but failing to complete a level usually means starting from the beginning. Each day we can play the games only limited number of times (1 for logic games, 3 for scratch cards), and it takes about 20 minutes to finish them all. There's plenty of gifts to choose from, like laser pens, mouse pads, LCD screens and video game systems.
How does that site make money on this? With real cash we have the option to buy MaxPacks. They allow us to play more of a selected game (15 for logic games, 45 for scratch cards), as well as give access to additional games, like Kaboom, where making bubz points is much easier. The first MaxPack we get for free after 3 days. Frankly, after we start paying for playing, the portal resembles a casino for kids. Most of the games have random elements in them and how many bubz we get depends only on luck. There's also a few games where we can play as much as we want, but we have to pay for it with bubz, hoping to get more than we'll loose. The game Kaboom mentioned before is a slot machine with some action elements.
All in all, this site shouldn't be treated too seriously. If you're looking into making real money, this is definitely not the right choice for it. You can always check it out though. The simple games can be amusing but after a while they will get boring. If you want to test your luck, keep in mind, after you start spending real money on it, you can loose it all. If most people would win there, that site wouldn't exist.
On this occasion I want to write a little about affiliate programs. What is it exactly? Affiliate program lets us get some benefits from promoting products of different companies. For example, previously mentioned site Prizee.com offers us a possibility like that. Joining their program makes us their sponsor and our job is to promote them. They get new clients and that means more cash for them. We get a link from them that we can use to direct people to their site. Now if someone directed from our site registers there and wins a gift, we get the same gift, or the equivalent amount of bubz. What more, which I think is a great idea from Prizee, the person that registers using our link gets twice the amount of go's for each game (2 for logic games, 6 for scratch cards) on the first day. In this situation everyone gets something out of it. Giving bonuses for people following links from the sponsors makes the whole process easier and encourages promoting of their product. I think other sites should follow Prizee in this matter because it's not often we come across bonuses like this. Though even if there's no bonuses for pointing out the person who referred us to the site during registration, doing so can be seen as simple 'thank you' for pointing me there. All the links here define me as the sponsor, so following them you can register and get the mentioned bonus.
