Have you come across something named GetPaid.Social lately? What is GetPaid.Social about? is it a scam or a legit opportunity? Can you make a lot of money and is it worth your time? These are the questions we are going to get answers to in this review.
Product: GetPaid.Social
Website: www.getpaid.social
Owner: Jeff Long
Price: $0 Free
Who is it for: People who wants to perform simple tasks online to earn money
What is GetPaid.Social about?
The GetPaid.Social is a brand new website, that (for the moment) is free to join, and start earning money at. It was launched November 10 (2015) and The community has already over 30,000 members!
What you will be doing here is paid social media jobs mostly, but there is also going to be surveys to complete (if you want).
You will be given tasks everyday, only easy things like: watch a youtube clip, like a facebook page, follow someone on facebook, follow someone on Twitter, etc.
For this you will get paid, and this you can start doing for FREE without any hidden fees (or catches).
You can also (if you want) invite others to GetPaid.Social and you will make money that way to, you will get 10% from what they make everyday! “You will also get 10% of the service that the business owners buy! If you have invited this business owner to GetPaid.Social!”
There is also paid memberships to consider if you like this idea, the benefits of having a paid membership is simply that your earnings will be bigger.
But it is FREE to sign up and start earning money, you do NOT have to pay anything att all for doing this. You can of course, IF you want, always upgrade later.
How does it work?
The GetPaid.Social website is made so business owners can get help to improve their social reach, following, exposure, engagement, etc..
How it works is that business owners are buying tasks from GetPaid.Social and the members of GetPaid.Social complete the tasks.
Everyone get´s happy and everyone get´s paid.
For example if you have a business you would like to have a lot of followers on social media, right? It is going to help you reach a lot more people with your services or products.
If you have a business and want to have things done, then you can of course become a member of GetPaid.Social to and create tasks for other “working” members to complete for you.
It is really that simple!
To the right you have a screenshot from inside of the membersarea. It has a very simple design and is very easy to understand. At the bottom you can see that GetPaid.Social already has 33,650 members!
Why you should/should not do this?
This is actually a good idea!
However, I would recommend you to go with a more stablished and well know site that allows you to do pretty much the same things. Because you never know with this new sites… So, my best advice would be to go with one that has been around since 2007. The one I talk about is, of course: Clixsense
I can actually don´t see any cons of this, (atleast not yet). Me myself became a member today and I will be doing this for some time (the tasks takes no time at all to complete).
Below is a screenshot of some of the task I have got today:
It is not big amounts (I am a free member) but it is not hard work either so that is probably fair.
I mean… to like a facebook page, and follow someone on Twitter don´t even take a minute. All this tasks together might take 5minutes, and for that you will earn $0.60
I checked back 30minutes later, and there was 6 new tasks to complete (all of them fast and easy ones) and they was going to give me $0,71!
Seems like you can be doing this all day! And it is FREE, so it is a great opportunity!
I really hope this site will be around for a long time! :o)
Worth to mention: I can not do any of the tasks, because I am a free member and ALL free members are going to be able to complete task from Monday the 14 december. This is to allow the premium marketing partners the time they need to create and setup their tasks for you (and me) to perform!
Update 18/12 2015
I have now been a member at Getpaid.social for about a week, I have shared my links on Facebook, Twitter and Google+ and I have managed to get some refferals in this short period of time, I have also made some money…
It might not be much, but I will update more when my earnings start to grow. Also, this is only for the referrals, not the tasks. The money I have made with the task is not much, it is about $4, but I have also not doing so many.
Final words and Verdict:
Verdict: Legit! (But NOT Recommended)
Overall ranking: 5/10
I don´t know yet if this can make BIG money, but I guess time will tell.
Inside of the membersare there is a (top 100) leaderboard of members who have been most active. Some of them already have earnings over $1,000 so it is definetly not bad!
The reason I don´t show their names and faces is simply because I don´t know if I am allowed, to do that… But you can take a look yourself as soon as you have signed up as a free member.
Maybe I change the rating to a higher one later, or maybe I lower it.. But for now I have to give it a fair rating, and 5/10 seems fair.
But for now, I think this is an ok opportunity, it is actually a decent chance for ANYONE to make money, you DON´T even need to recruit other people (if you don´t want of course) and you don´t need to sell ANYTHING.
It doesn´t get easier than this. That´s for sure.
It is also free to join..
I mean how many of you are just wasting time online everyday on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, etc… I mean you can actually make money with snapchat now.
What if you got paid a few cents, or even a few dollars to do things like this:
- Liking a Facebook page
- Liking a Facebook post
- Sharing a Facebook post
- Visiting a website
- Watch a YouTube video
- Follow someone on Snapchat
- Leave a comment
- Etc.
These are just examples.
Well the year is 2015, soon it will be 2016 and now this things are actually possible! And it is free :o)
ANYWAYS…My recommendation would be to go with a simmilar but A LOT more established site instead that has been around for a long time:
Click here to read about that one instead!

UPDATE! JANUARY 10 (2016)
I have got questions in the comments, to prove that I actually have got paid from GPS and I promised to show proof here so… here it is: a screenshot from my PayPal account after my first month as a member… No BIG money, but I cannot say that I have spent much work on it either… So it is very welcomed 🙂
Dominic says
Hi John, that is a very interesting take on GetPaid.Social.,and I must say the concept sounds good and make sense as well. Kudos to the creator for doing such a concept work for them. I will probably read more and test it myself the link given by you. I hope to hear more from your experience from this platform as well. Thanks a lot for sharing this interesting platform John!
John says
Thank you Dominic! Yes I know the concept sounds GREAT! Also the platform has such a simple but clean look. It feels very easy, and professional. Yep try it!

Manny Comelli says
Hi John, i would like to sign up under your link and even pay the membership, but some of my refs would like to join as free members and they would like know if the site pays free members in cash, and how. because you unlock paypal when you pay the membership. Thanks! Best Regards!
John says
Hi Manny! Well if you already got some refferals you really should sign up (and upgrade to premium)! I think free members get´s paid by checks or gift cards they can use on sites like Amazon.com, Macys, etc. But I think the GetPaid.Social team are working on making PayPal an option for free members also, I am not sure. I have to check it up. I get back to you as soon as I got the info Manny, will be looking into it right now.
Thank you!
/John
Manny Comelli says
Thanks So Very Much For Your Prompt Reply, i opologyze for posting my question twice,(you may delete it if you would like to) i did not find it the first time i posted it. I will Sign up right now, and encourage my team to upgrade. Thanks Again. Best Regards! In case you have a FB Account, Please Add Me… Manny Comelli with a picture of a blue shirt of FaithBook

No problem Manny:) I have added you on Facebook now. We talk more soon. /John
Gabriel Florin Robciuc says
Hello there, John,
Look at the following message which I just found on my Getpaid.social account dashboard:
“As of 11:59 PM (Eastern Time) April 15th, we will no longer be supporting your FREE membership. You can activate your Premium membership for only $9.97/month
+ a small one-time $10 setup fee. If you do not upgrade before the deadline, your account will be de-activated and you will forfeit any owed earnings.
Don’t let that happen! Upgrade now as we are about to ROCK this thing and you WILL be missing out if you’re not part of it! Thank you for your support
and membership. If you choose not to stay with us…we wish you well!”
So, I’m a member since the 30th of march, having too less activity on this site, because I just received a very very small number of tasks; that means, only 1 or 2 tasks per day, and sometimes, none. Now, I don’t have access to my dashboard until I pay this $9.97 or something like this, otherwise, my account will be suspended.
The biggest irony is that, when I try to see that page for choose the right option to pay this fee, my Firefox browser keeps refreshing like a crazy piece of crap! In internet explorer, the following error message appears:
“500 internal server error!
We encountered an error handling your rewquest!
For solving this problem, please, contact the admin at webmaster@getpaid.social:
So, I just described with my own words the error that appears.
The stupid situation is that I’m unable to contact any of their support team, because the links don’t work at all!
In your opinion, what can those things mean?
Best reguards!
John says
I am not sure what those things mean, but I hear the other day in the GPS facebook group that there will not be possible to stay as a free member at GPS anymore, it will be a free 7-day trial and after that you decide yourself if you upgrade or not.
Hope that helps?
/Best regards
Pranav Patel says
Biggest scam of 2016. I had one year premium membership of $97 and I got a mail today that if I will not upgrade my account then I will lose my all earnings and my premium membership. I had already paid then why they are asking again to pay? And my withdrawal is pending from 5th Feb, 2016.
Brandy says
Hi John,
Good review! I have not heard of this program before but it sounds quite interesting. Getting paid, even a little amount, for doing something as simple and quick as ‘liking’ a page seems like a no-brainer to me.
I think I will check it out. Thanks for providing the review and the link to sign up!
John says
Thank you Brandy! Yes try it, I signed up two days ago and it seems like it will only be free to sign up until this tuesday!

mmm says
have you got paid your rewards from getpaid social and by what means. can you please proof how u got paid
John says
Hi there, yes I got my first payment the other day actually… It was not a monster payment but I got $148 for my first month… I got paid by PayPal. I will put a screenshot proof of my PayPal account in the review. Are you a member? Have you not got paid?
Jill says
Hello John,
trying to join , creates a user name and password- stops there. Also unable to contact support team!
John says
Hi Jill! The site is down for maximum 5 hours because they are installing new servers on the site… They start to get so many members so the old server became to small. Try again in a couple of hours again and it will be ok.
NemiraB says
Hello John. Thanks for review of GetPaid Social.
I wonder how long have you been a member of this site?
According to you, it is really new website. It is few weeks old if I understand in a right way. If not, you can correct me in your answer below my comment.
I guess that this information would be helpful to your visitors.
Of course, it s great to be paid with simple button push. How much time members spend in this site? I wonder how long it takes to earn substantial income?
I wish you success being a member of your described website.
All the best, happy writing, Nemira.
John says
Hi NemiraB! I have now been a member of GetPaid Social for 2 weeks. I have made $172 in this period of time, but I have not been very active to be honest… I am also a premium member, that means that all my earnings are 4 times bigger than it would be if I was a free member… One important thing to mention is that free members are only allowed to earn $250 per month… As a Premium you have no earning limit…
Hope that helps!
Thank you for your comment /John
velit says
free members can not earn more than 10$ per month, .
i am since 5 days free member and till now my account less than 2 dollars (1,76) and i am very active daily with it, the site and dashboard work too slow and if you see 7 task, 4 from them for premium and two not work and just you got one and this one sometimes i got error with it , so all the days i can solve only 6-9 tasks with free members and average per task 5 cent or less so in total can get daily 30-35 cent so from where can get 250 dollar monthly????? dream, i have very fast internet, i want to join premium but i want to know if the site work same slow as free members then cannot fill 50 task daily
John says
The site works slow now because it is going through some updates. Jeff Long informed us inside of the community 2 days ago that soon it will be MUCH more tasks to do… The site works slow for me to (as a premium member). Free members are limited to 25 task per day… I agree most task only pay 5 or 10 cents. But it will come tasks that pays more, it was also clearified in the message from Jeff. We need to be a little patient I guess. If you are eager to start working towards making big money online, maybe this is what you should try insted: http://bit.ly/1MX4Wzg It is a smart move having more than one income stream online 😉 That link can actually make you A LOT of money if you are ready to put in some time and work… But everything is explained and it will take you step-by-step to making a so called passive income online. Hope that helps! 🙂
Thank you for your comment/ John
Brian says
Wow, thanks for sharing that! I might just give GetPaid.Social a try. I’ve joined other sites in the past where you do simple tasks and stuff such as do a google search for a specific keyword and click on the first keyword that pops up. We all use social media these days and like you said, why not get paid to do some simple tasks and I like the fact that it is free to join. That’s amazing to see that some people are earning over $1,000 already for it!
John says
Thank you for reading Brian! Yes I think you really should try this!
Yes, the members that earns those amounts already are most definetly paid members, but you can as a free member earn good money to, atleast a couple of hundred bucks a month, I would guess!(if you get serious about it)
It is going to be exiting to see how many task there is to complete on Tuesday when the tasks will be open to free members also!
Thank you for your comment!
/John
Derek Marshall says
Hi John,
I like this, may not be ideal for me as I am trying end my social media addiction and the time I waste on them but defo forwarding this post to my friends. The $ amount earned is actually good amount here is Asia way more than 2 days hard labor ohh and here freaking social media addicts! Bit of luck it can help people get out of poverty!
John says
Exactly! This is for ANYONE and EVERYBODY that is what I like most! This can help people that don´t have money… I mean what might sound like small money for you and me, can be A LOT for someone else, right?
Riaz Shah says
Hey John,
Get review you’ve laid out here! Getpaid.social seems pretty decent but I was skeptical to give it a try until l came across your review. However with that amount of time being spent online, I think its much better to start our own Online Business since we can definitely control how much we earn depending on how much effort we put in.
John says
I totally agree that starting an online business is a WAY better way for making BIG money online… But some people just don´t have what it takes to do that.. Or more correct: Don´t have the determination and diciple that it takes…
Also many people just want to make some extra cash performing simple task…
Not that I think starting a business is hard (if you get the right training of course). If that is something you are intrested in the absolute best place without a doubt to do that is this community: http://startmakestopwaste.com/the-wealthy-affiliate-review-2016-insider-information It is also FREE to become a member so you have nothing to lose trying it out.
Hope that helps. /John
darren says
What a cool review. I’m always looking for new ways to get paid from doing normal internet browsing. Since i’m always browsing! But i will say this. I haven’t found one yet that is really worth it.
is this is actually making you money?
i have heard of others like swagbucks that claim similar things.
John says
I have actually a review on Swagbucks on this site to, Swagbucks is a great thing to! But not as good as this because I really think you can make more money, and also in less time (easier tasks) with GetPaid.Social.
David says
Thank you, John! You can tell you are very serious and interested in this opportunity. It seems like a good opportunity. Sometimes too good to be true is just that, but your trust in this program is noteworthy. I appreciated your review and it made me curious to take a look at getpaid.social.
John says
Thanks David! Yes for me it sounds like a really god idea… The biggest reason I trust it so much is that I really understand the concept… I think it is a genius consept actually… It is also free to start (and earn money)..
But of course you never know… Anything can happen of course,.. If I change my mind I will also have to change my review.. But I don´t think that will be the case… I am going to ride along with this! :o)
Igor says
Hello!
It is not every day I see new things online that are valid. Very interesting! It reminds me of sites like fiverr, where services are provided but not for sums so small. I would bbe interested to see how much money can be made with this cause i would not waste energy on small sums at all. Good review!
John says
Try and see for your self, I am trying it out my self right now, I am not going to waste time for small money either… Guess we will find out about that on Tuesday!
Ankit says
Hey,
Very interesting article on GetPaid.Social, actually very useful to me. Being a business owner of around 4 websites I am always trying to reach out to more people who can follow me on social media, share my posts and their are some decent paid options out there to get that but I always thought that why cannot I also earn money by following someone or watching a video etc..
Will definitely give it a try !
John says
Exactly! This is not only for people who wants to make money clicking, it is also for people who want´s to “reach out” to more people with their stuff, whatever it might be
Do it! You will find it very simple and useful I am sure of!
Thank you for your comment
/John
Zuzana says
Hi John,
Very interesting review, i’ve not heard about this yet, but after reading your post I might have a better look and give it a try. You really made me interested. Why not getting paid, even if only small amounts, for simple things such as liking a page or watching videos. Very intrigued indeed!
John says
It has only been online for about 1 month so it´s not many people who have heard about it… YET 😮
Brandon says
I must say that is pretty impressive. The website has only been up an running for about a month and it already has 30,000 people signed up. The task seem pretty easy to do. Liking and adding certain peoples Facebook pages. The rewards are in cents but I am pretty sure doing these task will definitely add up especially if you do it full time. I see this being a great way to make some side money. But I wonder how much it cost to be paid member?
John says
Yes I know it´s crazy how many members they have already, I just checked today and there is pretty much 40,000 members now! If you want to become a Premium Member it will cost $97 per year, you can also pay per month if you want but that will be a little more expensive. The best bargain you make if you buy a lifetime membership for $197.
But you acctualy don´t need to buy anythin, you can go with the free membership as long as you like.
Hope that helps

CHIb says
Hi John I just joined after reading ur review and I paid for the monthly premium package. I hope you get something for that :). However I can’t seem to fin a way to login or begin doing tasks. Thanks for any help
John says
Yes you can absolutely make money, I have ablmost $80 on my account, been member for only a week :o) Going to write an update on this review tonight and show the fast results! and show
You can´t login? Try to change browser! Tell me how it worked?
/John
Beuo says
Hi,
Thanks for the review.
Can free members also cash out, and if so, at which monetary level?
John says
No problem! Thank you for reading!
Yes free members can also cash out, but there is a limit on max $250 per month. There is also different alternatives such as bitcoins, Amazon giftgards, Walmart giftcards etc… There is also more options to choose from…
I am going to look what more options there is and update the review.
Thank you for your comment /John
michelle says
I installed the fb application yesterday and it was great. I got a premium account (I guessed it was free for a while) but today everything is gone and I get a window telling me I have to install the fb application !!! maybe I will try another time and if it’s still not working i give up
michelle
John says
Did you get a premium account for free? It is free to sign up and start “working” but to get a premium account, you have to pay.
No don´t give up, I have made $168 in one week now… and I haven´t even put much time on it. I am a premium member though.
I suggest you start as a free member, as soon as one of your refferals upgrade, then you do the same. That way you will get the commission, you have 24hours to upgrade after your refferal did to get the commission. (I even think they have changed this to 72 hours now).
If you still have the problem come back here and tell me, I can ask the support why you have this problem.
/John
Rhoda says
Found your website by typing is “Is getpaid.social legit?” I have a question: Do you need a Facebook account / page in order to sign up? I have resisted opening a Facebook page because I think that Facebook can be a time eater, and, besides I can use someone else’s account when I need to. Would it be possible for me to sign up and use this other person’s Facebook account to do the tasks? Just wondering, and thanks for your time!
John says
Hello Rhoda! No you don´t need a Facebook account to sign up to Getpaid.social. Many of the tasks don´t involve Facebook. I know what you mean by Facebook being time consuming… Maybe you can create a facebook account but not add any friends :o) Because to complete some of the task Facebook is required, but you don´t need friend on the account :o) You can make one in a “anonymous name :o)
I am not sure if it is possible to use someone elses account, but I belive it is… Sign up for a free membership and you will notice very quick… That is the best advice I can give :o)
Thank you for reading Rhoda!
and hope this helps! :o)
John says
Hi John.
It seems like the point of Get Paid Social is to get paid for things you might be doing anyways like hanging out on Facebook or watching YouTube. If this is something fun for you to do, you might as well think of a way to get paid for doing it. If everybody could get paid for playing video games all day, that would be even greater.
Thanks for the information. I’ll check it out. By the way, how do you get paid? Are funds put in a PayPal account?
John says
Yes I agree with you on that! 🙂 If you like playing video games you should check out this: http://startmakestopwaste.com/make-money-writing-video-game-reviews-you-can-make-a-fortune
As a premium member, you have the option to get paid from PayPal yes. The free members don´t have that option yet, but I think they are working on that.

Alka Anil Kumar says
Hi John
I live in India, so is it possible for me to join this site. And what do I have to do to be a premium member???
John says
Hello Alka! Yes of course it is possible, as a matter of fact I know a Indian guy that has made a REAL success for himself by recruiting others to the community. If you want to go premium you just pay the membership fee… But I recommend you join for free first and try things out.
Thank you for your comment! Hope that helps! / John
Alka Anil Kumar says
John can we do this work in a tab or is it necessary to use a pc ???
John says
No you don´t need a PC you can do it on your phone, ipad, etc… I don´t really understand the word tab? But I guess you mean Ipad? Sorry but English is not my first language 🙂 Hope that helps?
Diana says
If you don’t pay the membership fee tasks are not available for you to do as a free member.
John says
Yes they are, but premium members get the task 1 hour before free members does and sometimes the tasks are finnished before free members can do them… But soon it will be A LOT more tasks to do… The site is going through some updates at the moment, that is also why it is sometimes slow. Guess we need to have a litlle patience. Free members are limited to max 25 task per day though…
mourad meskini says
the commission plan is not explained on details!! we earn 10% in all cases? free or paid membership?!! the referral commission goes untill which level? only the first? or until 2nd and more?
John says
As a free member you get 10% of the earnings that your refferals make, and also your refferals refferals… Premium members get 40% instead on the exactly same things.
If one of your refferals upgrade you have 3 days as a free member to upgrade to premium… if you want (40%) commission for the upgrade.
I am not sure what you mean by level?
Joy says
Hi John. I’ve registered in GetPaid.social yesterday and started doing tasks today.
I just noticed that with every task I complete, my rewards earned is always deducted by some amount. Like when a reward amount for a certain task is $0.1, only $0.08 is actually rewarded to me upon completing it. Is it really like that?
And on your post you said you were paid via PayPal. I’ve read in the payment terms that only Premium members are allowed to withdraw using PayPal. So I assume you are a premium member. But did you get paid when you were a free member? What mode of payment did you use?
Thanks~
John says
Hi there Joy! Yes that is the case, the amount rewarded is always deducted like that, that is so not only you will earn from the task you are doing 🙂 It has to be that way, or else the whole idea would not work. I think some of the earnings go to the GetPaid.Social site and some goes to the one who reqruited you to the site.. I have gotten this explained in a video exactly but I don´t remember really… Will check it out.
To your other question, yes I am a premium member, I became premium member after only 4-5 days because I managed to get some refferals and one of them upgraded… So then I did to:) To get the commission from the upgrade of course ($80) so no I haven´t experienced the payment as a free member. I don´t think it is possible to get paid with PayPal as a free member for the moment.. But I think I read in a news letter on Facebook that it is going to change.. It will also soon be A LOT more tasks to do both for free and premium members.
Viljoen says
I must say that $140 is not that bad at all. I like the fact that it is free to start and that it is extremely easy to do. You earn little bit more than $7 per hour which is not that bad at all. If you work for 8 hours a day from Monday to Friday then you will earn $1120 per month.
That is if you get that many tasks to complete. The only thing that I do not like is that you cannot really scale your income to the level that you want to.
John says
The $140 was pretty much all from some of my referrals upgrading to premium membership.
Right now it is gonna be very hard to earn $7 per hour from performing tasks as there isn´t that many tasks to do, but it will be A LOT of tasks soon inside the members area we have been informed of.
Yes it is not a business that will make you rich, at least if you aint get A LOT of referrals (some members make $4,000+) but it can work as a good extra income and the amounts that you mention are possible to achieve.
I have to mention that the price for upgrading to premium has actually become cheaper now, it is still free to join, but if you want to upgrade it only costs $4,95 per month now.
Thank you for your comment!

Nelson M Jimenez says
How can you tell a site is a scam or not? I signed up to this, upgraded for $9.97 and add funds $50 for my task. I followed every instruction and made my facebook apps exactly I was instructed. It went through good but everytime I log in,they asking me to upgrade again eventhough I received an email that my upgraded is confirmed and made a couple of tasks. I send them message back but no respond and the site is somewhat disorganized,I couldn’t go through to where I want to go. I’m thinking this site is another scam. I lost $59.97 already and The site is awfully to access.
John says
The site is legit, I have got paid from the site. Just like all new sites (or programs) it has “growing pains” meaning that there is still some problems in the system and everything isn´t working smooth and the way it should yet. I have (and still) experience a lot of troubles with the site, also with (like you say) the support. But I have made much more money from it than I have paid for my monthly membership. This kind of problems are normal for a recently launched program, in the FB group we have been told that everything will work smooth and that there is gonna be A LOT of tasks (even for FREE members) very soon. Sometimes we need to be patient. I am sure all the problems you experience will be solved. Are you part of the FB group by the way?
Tamil arasan says
Hi john,
Do you think this program could survive long time?
John says
Hi there Tamil! Yes I think it can, it is a great idea. The design of the website is also so simple and easy to understand (user friendly) and that is a big +. Right now the site is still very new and there is not that many tasks to do.. But we have been promised that it will be FULL of tasks to do for both FREE and premium members to do this week. When that happens I think GPS will explode! It already has 120,000 members, they aim to reach over 1 million members in the next 2 months and I think they can do it.
Are you a member?
Thanks for your comment! /John
Tamil arasan says
Yes John, I’m a new member of GPS and I started to read GPS reviews. You’ve wrote a great review. In turn some people said bad about GPS and just confirmed from you about its consistency. If it does well with more tasks in future, I will start to promote it via my website.
John says
Thank you Tamil! Yes it hasn´t been that many tasks, yesterday I did about only 7 and today I found 4 new ones… We have been promised A LOT of tasks very soon and it feels like that what we all (the members) are waiting for. I am sure it will be many tasks soon and then GPS will be a success. It is still a very new program and like all new programs it goes through some “difficulties” in the beginning, that is normal.
Thank you for your comment! /John
Ragie Gawayen says
Let me try this.
Thanks for the great review.
John says
No problem! Thanks for your comment Ragie! There are not very many tasks to do right now in the task marketplace, but the GPS team has promised us (the members) A LOT of tasks very SOON for both free and premium members.
Andrea says
Nice one John
I am going to make an account you just gave e a nice insight today.
They might be not big cash but hey, exactly as you say, you wouldn’t get a dime just going to facebook, but facebook surely does so nice that everyone can get his own piece of the cake.
Thanks a lot
John says
Yepp it is definitely worth signing up for a free account, there is A LOT of tasks on their way the GPS team have promised us.
King Bright says
They not been paid about about 6 month and I been waiting for my payment and while I paid for the premium membership
william koopman says
Anyone know how to cancel membership subscription — the back office does not give much detail — says you must go to profile settings but nowhere how to unsubscribe.
John says
Click on your profile pic inside the members area, then you go to billing options, there you find a “red cancel subscription tab” click that one and you are no longer a member.
Why are you going to cancel your membership by the way?
Scott says
I have tried several times to sign up and each time it kicks back to the landing or recruitment page. Any suggestions???
John says
hmm,maybe you can try to change browser? If it doesn´t work try again at a later moment. Tell me how it worked out for you, if you still can´t sign up I can send in a support ticket to ask what is wrong.
Scott says
No luck with different browsers. Initiallt tried to sign up several hours ago and again just now. Rather disappointed….
John says
I just talked to a person in the support team. She told me that they have had some problems with the system but that it should be fine now. Maybe you can try again? Tell me if it didn´t work and I contact her again she said.
Justin says
Hi John,
It is quite coincidental that I ran into your post because just a couple hours ago I started an account over at getpaid.social myself and so far I think it has potential to be a great site. Now they are offering premium memberships for 10$/month + a 1 time 10$ activation that gets you access to unlimited surveys.
Great article!
John says
thank you Justin! I agree it has a lot of potential, right now it has some beginner issues but hopefully it will be sorted out very soon.
Thank you for your comment. /John
edison says
Hello John,
i sign up under you, they are offering premium memberships for 10$/month + a 1 time 14$ activation that gets you access to unlimited surveys,i believe you have been a premium member for sometime now please tell me what is your experience like and how is the unlimited surveys,is it really real,please reply,i want to subscribe to all and see how it looks like but i am bit scared.
John says
Hi Edison, go ahead and sign up for the free membership and try things out, about the surveys it is like all online surveys, you won´t qualify for all of them. Also, most of them are targeted to people living in the US, Great Brittan and Germany, for now.
GPS is still new and like most new programs it still got some issues, bugs, things that ain´t working correctly, etc. You can subscribe for 1 month and later cancel if you don´t like it.
If you want to try taking surveys on another site (online since 2007) that is very similar to GPS look at this: http://startmakestopwaste.com/what-is-clixsence-a-scam-find-out-in-this-review
You can also make money there from doing tasks like clicking on ads, visiting websites, play games, etc. It is also absolutely free to join, tried it and withdraw $10 after taking about 5-6 surveys and playing a few games. Pretty good if you ask me, for doing easy tasks like that.
Hope that helps? Tell me if there is something else.
Thank you for your comment Edison
Best regards,
John
Helen Doyle says
I am a bit disappointed in the number of tasks I get. I have been a yearly member for a month or so and am lucky if I get 2 -3 tasks a day. So far I haven’t even reached a dollar! As for surveys, I don’t often even get one I qualify for. For some reason the Australian ones tend to forget that Tasmania is part of Australia so I don’t even have an option to check a box. Unless I lie about which state I live in and I won’t do that.
Anyway I will keep plugging away.
By the way you keep spelling Referral incorrectly!
John says
Yes, there isn´t that many tasks to do on a daily basis, the program is still new and there is going to be more and more tasks to do as the program evolves. There is a notification inside the GPS that you could apply so you get notified in your browser when there is a new task in the marketplace, or else you will probably miss out on a lot of tasks because you are probably not inside the members area all the time, right?
Also, I don´t know if you know about this but there is a similar site to GPS that has been around since 2007, you might get more surveys to do there, check out this review if you are interested: http://startmakestopwaste.com/what-is-clixsence-a-scam-find-out-in-this-review
Hope that help!
Lol! I know my spelling is not very good, English is not my first language, but I am getting better 😉
Shahrull Azwar Abdullah says
I found a few review on GPS, some good and some are not. I have been a free member for a few days now and only getting like 5 or 6 tasks so far. At this point, i’m not considering to be a premium yet. We’ll see how it goes.
Anyway John, love all the comments. very helpful.
John says
Yes, some like it some don´t one thing is for sure, you ain´t going to get rich from it. It is considered a small extra income for doing simple tasks. The tasks are getting more and more and one advantage of being a premium is that you get access to more tasks as you (as a premium) see the tasks 1hour before the free members does, many times the tasks are already “done” before the free members get the chance to do them. But, for now I think you are doing right not becoming a premium, this might change in a near future though.
Thank you a lot for your kind words Shahrull, I really appreciate it.
Best regards

Khan Habib says
Hey john can you guide me how to fix snapchat account details on Getpaid.social ?
Please need your help .
John says
Hi Khan, yes it should not be that hard to fix 🙂 This is what you do :
1) Download the snapchat app on your smartphone
2) Create a free snapchat account
3) Goto your profile in GPS and under settings & setup enter your snapchat username & password. Your password is NOT STORED ANYWHERE and only needs to be entered once!
4) Perform snapchat related tasks and earn your reward!
5) Add Jeff (the owner of GPS) as a friend to follow his snaps! His username is: jeffalong
Hope that helps!
Best regards

pragash says
Hi John,
I am a free member of gps for about a month but recently I have been receiving one or two tasks per day. Just tried to go premium but still have a doubt whether there will be enough tasks to atleast earn 10$ a day. Your confirmation is valuable to me.
Thanks and regards
John says
It will be hard to earn $10 every day, not saying it is impossible, if you get a lot of surveys to do (depends a lot if you live in the US or not) then you could probably make $10 per day… If not it will be very hard.. However, you can try, if you aren´t satisfied you can always cancel your membership, there is a 30 day money back guarantee.
Have you tried this free similar site by the way: http://startmakestopwaste.com/what-is-clixsence-a-scam-find-out-in-this-review
I made $10 there in 2 days as a free member, spending maybe 1-1,5 hours in total.
Peter says
Hello,
I want to disappoint those who contend that GPS is legal website. My story is simple – I have become a standard member, when on the site was registered about 110K members. Usually I am not investing until the first payment. I honestly listened Jeff Long’s audio reference, in which he promised within 3 months the one million members, over the next 2 months was registered not more than 8K members. And when I reached the minimal amount for withdrawal, I got this message:
You Must UPGRADE Your Membership To Continue Receiving Access to The Task Marketplace & Your Members Area!
As of 11:59 PM (Eastern Time) April 15th, we will no longer be supporting your FREE membership. You can activate your Premium membership for only $9.97/month + a small one-time $10 setup fee. If you do not upgrade before the deadline, your account will be de-activated and you will forfeit any owed earnings. Don’t let that happen! Upgrade now as we are about to ROCK this thing and you WILL be missing out if you’re not part of it! Thank you for your support and membership. If you choose not to stay with us…we wish you well!
This message is to all tabs, even not possible to contact with support team.
Draw your own conclusions, I am sure that site owner Jeff LONG so greedy that will make the website life very SHORT. I have no doubt that this is one more scam. Everything as always…. Please save your money and don’t waste your time.
Best regards!
John says
Well, I don´t know how things will turn out with GPS, I find it “boring” that it is not possible to be a free member anymore also. Do you know that there is a site that has been around since 2007 that is free and offfers pretty much the same task (but more of it)? If you are interested you can read about it here: http://startmakestopwaste.com/what-is-clixsence-a-scam-find-out-in-this-review
Thanks for your comment

VIPUL AGRAWAL says
Hey, I want to cancel my subscription of getpaidsocial. How do I do it?
John says
It should not be hard to do, go to your profile, there is a “cancel subscription tab” there
Earn With Me says
Do you know if it is scam now? Have not seen any updates lately and payments are also pending for a long time.
Thank you.
John says
I checked it out earlier today and it was pretty many tasks to do and my earnings have increased, from referrals doing tasks. Payout date is April 18, I haven´t tried cashout this time, will share how it goes when I do.
/Best regards
John says
The owner of GPS Jeff Long published this in the Facebook group of GPS about 2 hours ago:
Hi everyone!!! My apologies for the delay in getting you this update. I’ve been heads down in my “lab” coming up with new, exciting, powerful and lucrative ways to ensure GPS is a success for ALL of you!
First things first…let’s get this out on the table and address it head on as I have nothing to hide or keep from you regarding payouts.
I’m not going to lie or try and come up with some stupid excuse for why payouts didn’t happen on the 18th like most people in my situation would.
The truth is…with my merchant account shutting me down owing me more money than I care to even think about, it’s left me in a very challenging situation financially and until they release my funds in 90 days, we are basically starting over here with GPS.
I can’t pay you commissions and rewards on money that I haven’t received…it really is just that simple. It sucks and it’s not what any of us want but you know what, sometimes in life and business “shit happens” and you can either get mad and QUIT…or you can just realize it for what it is and keep moving FORWARD.
I’m moving FORWARD!
I am going to make GPS a MASSIVE success my friends. It’s been one hell of a hard road getting it there, but you have my commitment that I’m not going to stop until we have 100-200 tasks per day running through this community and at least 10,000 active, engaged, excited, profitable members!
So for those of you who are still owed money, I would like to make you the following offer to help ease the pain of this situation as much as I possibly can.
In 90 days (By July 1, 2016) I will receive my funds from my merchant account company. There’s nothing I can do to speed that process up unfortunately.
For every 30 days that you have money owed to you, you will earn 10% each month and by July 1, 2016 I will have received my funds from the merchant account and will be able to pay you what you’re owed plus the additional 10% you will have accumulated each month.
So from TODAY forward (April 19th, 2016) we’re drawing a “line in the sand” so to speak and literally starting over. Whatever you’re owed, you’ll earn 10% on each month and will be paid by July 1, 2016. This is my way of saying thank you and “I’m sorry” and it’s really the best I can offer.
MOVING FORWARD THOUGH…HERE IS THE PLAN so you can decide whether or not you want to move forward with us or not. It’s your choice obviously…but let me tell you what to expect from here on out.
By this Friday April 22, I’m going to implement a brand new compensation structure which will STILL allow you to earn commissions on premium membership fees AND make money by helping build our community.
It’s really quite exciting and powerful so check this out:
All new members to our community will have to setup a 7 day free trial to GPS. They pay $0 to set this up through PayPal. During the 7 days, they can earn rewards, add tasks to the marketplace and earn commissions by referring others to the community. After 7 days, if they don’t like what they experienced…they simply cancel and are not billed anything.
If they don’t cancel, on the 7th day, they’re billed $19.97 which is $9.97 for their first month plus a one-time $10 setup fee.
The direct referrer of that new member will earn $3 PER MONTH (Not just one time) and the next in line qualified premium member will earn $2 PER MONTH that the new member remains active.
You will be paid DIRECTLY & INSTANTLY to the PayPal account of your choice! That’s right…NO MORE having to WAIT to get paid! I am completely AUTOMATING your commissions from here on out so that we never again have to go through what we’re going through right now!
If you’re in a country that does not support PayPal, I apologize. PayPal is the only payment and payout option I will be offering at this time. I am looking into other payment/payout options such as bitcoin, payza and a few more.
On TOP of this…you will ALSO receive your earned rewards from doing tasks…AUTOMATICALLY!
Here’s how it’s going to work:
Every day, once a day the system is going to check your reward AND BONUS reward earnings (commissions you are earning from your team members completing tasks)…every time you are owed at least $10, you will be paid that $10 INSTANTLY to your PayPal account! That’s right…now there’s just a $10 payment threshold instead of the existing $25 threshold! Cool huh?
Just wait, it gets better….
The Founding Partnership Program
For those of you who have joined the powerful Founding Partnership Program and are participating in the survey profit pool, I have decided to make this a 12 month long program instead of the 3 months I originally gave you. What this mean is that for 12 months, you will be participating in the profits we as a company are generating from members completing surveys!
Here’s how this works:
I am capping the survey profit pool at 300 positions every 12 months.
When a member completes a survey in the survey marketplace, $1 is put into the survey profit pool and paid to the next in line founding partner. That member receiving the $1, is bumped to the “end of the line” and the next in line founding partner in the profit pool then moves to the “pay position” where they will receive the next $1 that is added to the survey profit pool and this process repeats and repeats until every member in the pool has received an equal share and then it starts all over again.
You will receive your earnings from the pool every 60 days once we are paid from our survey partners and you will keep your spot in the pool for an entire 12 months!
I’m going to really AMP UP my marketing efforts AND I’m going to even allow YOU ALL to INVITE OTHERS to participate in surveys and when they do…YOU WILL GET PAID! This will EXPLODE the amount of surveys being completed in the community and thus create a MASSIVE number of $1 payments being paid to founding partners in the profit pool!
The question is…are you going to be one of them?
Learn more about the founding partnership and secure your position in the profit pool by going to: http://bit.ly/1NkJW
Honestly…if it’s something within your budget…I cannot encourage you enough to secure your position in the profit pool by becoming a founding partner IMMEDIATELY! I originally capped out the profit pool to only 200 positions, but since I’m making this a 12 month long offer…I’ve decided to increase the number of positions from 200 to 300 as we already have maxed out the 200 original positions! So…these additional 100 positions will go VERY QUICKLY so do not hesitate and lock in your position now. And YES, you can purchase multiple positions if you want to increase your earning abilities.
Now, keep in mind…survey earnings are the only earnings in the system I cannot automate as I get paid from my survey partners every 60 days and I cannot pay on surveys until I’m paid Smiley smile
As I mentioned, you will also have the ability to INVITE OTHERS to complete the surveys in our survey marketplace and earn when they do!
THINGS I AM PUTTING IN PLACE TO HELP INCREASE NUMBER OF TASKS AND GROW THE TASK MARKETPLACE
– A targeted sales page specifically targeted toward business owners who want to leverage the power of our community and put tasks in our marketplace. You will be able to market this page and earn commissions when those you refer create a task in the marketplace.
– NEW TASKS TYPES! Watching YouTube videos, doing app reviews in the apple app store, creating craigslist ads, getting twitter followers, sharing on google plus and more in the works.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. What if I’m already a LIFETIME premium member? Do I have to spend anymore money to continue on with GPS?
A. Absolutely NOT! You would however have to purchase the Founding Partnership if you choose to participate in that optional program.
Q. I’m a FREE GPS member…can I still earn and stay active in the community?
A. Unfortunately, no. As of April 1 we are no longer supporting FREE memberships in the community. It was something I really wanted to be able to do, however too many free members took advantage of the system, were dishonest, disrespectful to my team and just caused too many problems. We tried it with FREE memberships and it didn’t work. If you want to move forward with GPS, you will need to activate your premium membership for only $9.97/month plus a one-time $10 setup fee. You may do so by logging in to your members area and following the instructions given to you.
Q. How do I setup or add my paypal account so I can get paid?
A. Login to your members area, click on the profile photo that appears in the top right corner and enter your paypal email address there. If any further action is required on your part, you will be notified.
Q. What I can’t wait 90 days to get my payment from you? I was really counting on that money, what can we do?
A. If you absolutely cannot wait the 90 days and it’s an emergency situation for you to receive your payment immediately…please contact support through your back office and we will work with you on a case by case basis.
Q. Are you offering annual or lifetime premium memberships anymore?
A. No. The opportunity for annual or life time memberships has passed. Everyone who is not already a premium member must create a monthly subscription through PayPal to remain an active premium member and participate in all of the exciting updates and enhancements coming to the community. You may do so from your back office by following the instructions given to you when you login.
Q. I’m already an annual premium member…what happens to my subscription?
A. You’re good to go until your annual subscription runs out. Once your subscription expires, you will be required to setup a new premium subscription through PayPal to continue having access to the community.
Q. I was on a $4.97/month subscription with the old merchant account…what do I do?
A. You will need to setup a NEW subscription through PayPal to continue receiving access to the community. Please login to your members area and follow the instructions given you to do so. You will still be able to lock-in your $4.97/month discounted membership fee if applicable.
If you have any more questions about any of this, please feel free to contact my support team from your back office.
I look forward to continuing this exciting journey with all of those who choose to move forward and will be in touch with more updates as my team and I progress with the enhancements and updates.
In Gratitude,
Jeff Long
