Step 2: Complete offers from our Best of the Net offer sections.
We constantly strive to find the best advertiser offers on the internet for our members by researching and testing each offer. These hand picked offers are added to our Best of the Net sections. You will find an extensive selection of advertiser’s offers to choose from within each of the three Best of the Net offer sections. Just pick and complete a total of six (6) offers to receive your free gift: two (2) from Best of the Net 1 section, two (2) from Best of the Net 2 section, and two (2) from Best of the Net 3 section. We will update your ‘Account Status’ with the total number of completed offers upon notification from the advertiser that you have met their requirements.
