Get Paid To (GPT) Programs for Work at Home Mothers

“Get paid to” programs (or GPTs as they are often called) are one of the many ways hat WAHMs (Work at Home Mothers) can make money from home.  If you’ve been looking for a work at home job, you’ve no doubt run across ads that claim that you can make money by reading e-mails, answering surveys, and trying free samples.  The good news is many WAHMs make money doing those exact things.  Plenty of people earn free cash online simply and legitimately every day (including myself.)  If you’re not into it 100% though don’t count on earning enough to pay your rent.  Part timers, however, can indeed earn enough (significant amount) to pay a few bills around the house here and there.

The bad news is that this particular industry is rife with scammers.  If you are interested in getting involved with GPT programs, you’ll have to do your homework and take special precautions to protect yourself and your computer.  Stick with those programs that have been recommended to you by a reliable source.  All the GPT programs listed on this site (www.DrGPT.com) have been tested by me to be 100% trustworthy legitimate paying sites.

For many WAHMs, the GPT programs are a fun and easy way to earn some extra money when they need it.  People who have experience with the programs recommend that you never rely wholly on GPTs to pay your monthly bills.  But they can be a perfect solution to earn money for a special occasion or holiday shopping.

Just what are GPT programs?  They fall into three basic categories: get paid to read e-mail, get paid to fill out surveys and get paid to try products. Each type has its own pros and cons.  Before you start any GPT program, you should take some steps to protect your personal information.  You will be required to give your personal information for many of these programs and the less you actually say about yourself the better.

To start you should register a separate e-mail address for your GPT purposes.  Many programs can result in a lot of spam mail, so you’ll want to keep your main e-mail address separate.


Get paid to read e-mail programs will pay you a few cents for receiving e-mail and clicking on links.  Normally these e-mails offer special deals on products or encourage you to sign up for programs.  Sometimes, depending on the e-mail program, you will get more money or “points” if you try the offer.  You are not obligated to try the offers, and will get paid a small amount just for clicking on the link inside of the e-mail.  There are many popular paid e-mail companies.  Do some research before you sign up for a program to make sure that people are actually getting paid.  Try not to sign up for too many programs at once or your GPT e-mail address will be swamped.

Getting paid to fill out surveys works in a similar way.  You will sign up for a survey program and then fill out some personal information.  You will be matched to surveys that are looking for the opinions of people in your income bracket, of your age or one of several different qualification factors.  Depending on the company, you will get paid per survey, or completing surveys will earn you points that can later be redeemed.  Just as with get paid to read e-mail programs, do research on survey companies before you sign up.  There are hundreds out there but only a handful are worth the time and effort.

Finally there are get paid to try products programs.  These programs pay significantly more than the other GPT programs.  However, you will be required to pay anywhere from $1 to $10 to try the products.  When you use these kinds of programs, you have to be careful to take complete records of what you will be receiving and when you need to cancel service or return the item.  Most of the time you will be registered for recurring billing for a monthly service, which can be canceled within the initial 7 to 14 days if you are so inclined.  You can call the companies and cancel the service, yet still be paid for signing up for the GPT program if your find the product or service undesirable.

Considerations in Choosing the Right GPT Site to Join and Frequent.

Below are my suggested criteria to consider when evaluating which GPT sites to join and frequent.  Also included are obvious red flags indicative of potential sites with issues that should be avoided.  These criteria (below) are listed in the order in which I, myself, prefer to choose my favorite sites – your “order” may differ depending on your own preferences and requirements:

  1. Site Stability, Honesty, & Financial Health / Backing
    Sites that look great and have great advertisements with superlative headlines boasting that they are the best site may not necessarily be the best choice.  I will do you little good to join a nice looking site, spending time earning to reach a significant internal account points balance only to find that you’ve ultimately been duped into a basically unsupported long-forgotten stagnant site that never pays out not matter what you do – chances are such a site is being milked by an administrator that:

    1. has lost interest in the site and rarely bothers to take the necessary steps to pay its members but leaves the site standing in the hopes that one day seen he/she may again suddenly start to care; and/or
    2. is disorganized or incompetent resulting in incessant excuses, delays, partial payments, and general headaches from the member’s perspective to such an extent that the site is basically useless as a reliable source of income; and/or
    3. has become financially insolvent  though he/she may have every intention of eventually paying the site’s members, never seems to have enough money when the time comes; and/or
    4. tends to delete accounts, steal from (reduce) the member’s account balance, never (or rarely) approve or credit member’s offer completions, or ban members when they have or are about to reach the minimum cash out requirement amount (playing dirty tricks); and/or
    5. is unscrupulous (fraudulent to a criminal extent) by allowing new members to join and present members to continue completing surveys and offers without any intention of ever paying those members for the work they have done while still collecting regular payments from the sponsors and pocketing it.

    How can you tell if the site you are evaluating may suffer from stability issues?  Look for red flags that may merit further investigation such as:

    1. Sites offering only private support options (a BIG tip off!) such as “contact us” forms or a private “support ticket” system while providing no publicly visible support such as a proper open support forum where gripes from present members can be openly read and evaluated (or having an open support forum but suppressing (deleting posts / banning complaining members) all gripes/complaints regularly; and/or
    2. Sites with an excessive amount of scam complaints posted elsewhere on the internet.  Take the time to Google the site name and take a look at what others are saying about the site.  Granted even the most legitimate and stable sites will inevitably have a few gripes out there from people who will never be satisfied (such as former members banned for fraud, etc.) or past issues that have been dealt with and solved but remain public because they reside within Google’s cached results or the original complaint had never been removed from the source web site; and/or
    3. Sites listed on GPTBoycott.com’s Watch List or worse, Boycott List.  GPTBoycott is an industry standard member complaint based voluntary pseudo-accreditation program offering trusted credentials to stable, paying sites while revoking credentials and publicizing issues related to sites with serious stability problems and those with documented allegedly fraudulent activities perpertrated on members.  GPTBoycott publishes a list of programs supporting their efforts and also has a rather informative and popular open discussion forum.
