I've joined another site recently, which is celebrating 1 Year old 10th January. I'd been eyeing it for a while. It has a large memberbase, looks stable enough and has mostly positive reviews.
To celebrate their Anniversay they have a 20% bonus of adding funds and some special Packs including upgrades, rented refs and credits.
I took the chance and decided to invest there. So far my rented refs look good enough, but not suspiciously good like the first days at PTCSolution. I got 600 rented refs and will let the profits of the account deal with the renewing and growing.

The Grid is not the cheapest around, but it might be a bit more interesting while the bonus is valid. It seems the admin has some more sites, but Goldenclix seems to be the biggest (at least as far as number of members).

As far as I know the admin owns 5 sites.
SilverClix, GoldenClix, BalkanikaClix, Clixdo and Adzpot..

Paypal is reviewing GoldenGroup's account. Which means that all sites can't temporarily use Paypal.

Let's hope this gets solved quickly. It's getting frustrating to have paypal messing up with all PTC sites.

Well, my Grid Ad there expires at June 2nd, so there's no need to use PayPal there for me before then..
I was hoping to add a campaign in SilverClix as well though but I guess that would have to wait for now.

Well, it seems deposits are still allowed. They just can't send payments.

Amazing how it always works like that.

That's how Paypal rolls. I also had my account limited for some time. The same kind of restrictions were applied.

Well, the jury's out. Paypal account limited. Why am I not surprised?
Will this be a PTCbox or a PTCSolution.

At the very least, it seems this admin is also putting some things into gear. Since he seems to be on good terms with PTCSolution's admin, maybe the later can give him some good pointers.

Yes, I read that.. and it kinda sucks.. he owns a lot of interesting sites that I wanted to advertise on..  [smiley=sad.gif]

Since I'm in an update mood, here goes another one.  ;)

For about an year I had kind of lost faith in Goldenclix, since due to the site's problems older members were getting the short end of the stick (i.e not getting paid), in order for the site to be able to pay new members.
Fortunately the situation is back to normal now and both me and my best referral (my mom) are getting paid normally again.

That's good to know rui! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Achievement Unlocked: Refer your mom!  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I couldn't think of a best referral to have..   ;D

Good to know things go well with the program!
I haven't used its grid for a while though as they still have the most expensive prices in the market there..

I almost regretted that achievment, as it was shortly before the Paypal problems, and for a while I thought I had not only lost my money, but hers as well. That was a close one.  :phew

For the record, she's also with me at Neobux.

And this month's point contest 1st prize goes to....

....

PTCMan's...


Mom.  ;D

Now that's what I call earning in family. Take that familyclix, I took your slogan and applied it here.

This week there's a promo going on in Goldenclix, where RR price is fixed at $0.20, no matter how many referrals you've got.
This means that people with over 1750 referrals (who're paying $0.27 per month) can get a huge discount if they renew them right now.
:money

So do you think this qualifies for a team join?

Hmm, maybe not that much. Not everyone here is into renting referrals and this promotion is not all that useful for someone with a small acount (since the price for renting starts at $0.20). But for someone with a medium to large account, this is the best promo I've ever seen in this site. Once or twice a year we get an extra 5% discount when renewing referrals, but with this promo, the discount goes as high as 35% for people who are currently paying $0.27 per referral. That's gives opne hell of a margin of profit. Of course, if one has "ammo" to take advantage of this promo.

A tema join would probable better in December, in their Anniversary celebration. It usually starts with an add funds promo, then somewhere along the month we get rented referral discounts (not as big as this one) and membership discounts.

I think I'm going to drop this for RRs. I don't seem to be getting anywhere in the testing phase. Plus it seems I can't refer new members at all though I seem to think I have a knack in that department. With all the clicks I've sent their way I would say it is virtually statistically impossible to have referred 0 people over that time

Funny, I'm not all that great at referring, but I never had serious difficulty in referring members to Goldenclix. I'm mostly using RRs now, though.

I think the end is near. Payments are becoming more and more rare, some accounts (like my mother's) are being suspended, and I haven't received a payment for nearly a month.
Same for Silverclix.

Sorry to hear.. :'(

The crypto-currency explosion should give them a boost during 2017, so I was hoping PTCs would take advantage of them and make it through their debts.

I hope YGP stays strong!

Looks like I still got paid again on Silverclix. After I made some advertising purchases. Still, with the averages I'm getting there in my referrals, it's not like my account is sustainable.

Well at least they still pay.. slowly but at least they are trying.. :)

I'm bringing this up again since after some time where things were kinda muted on these programs, they actually have an interesing new dynamic now thanks to their special memberships.

Both Golden and Silverclix right now have special 90-days membership upgrades that substantially increase your click values. By clicking 4 big ads each day you get back the money of the upgrade plus some profit. The higher the membership, the bigger the profit.
In a way it kinda reminds me of PCTS/PV since the bigger investment you make, the bigger value in the ads you see, although in this case there's no BAP so you can withdraw or use it for advertising, you choice.
The key point is not forgetting to click.

Good that they actually evolved somehow! :)
Bad that GoldenClix actually has completely removed my account  >:(

At least on SilverClix they didn't.. and here is their upgrade table:

Is it the same in GoldenClix?

That looks tempting but are they going to let us cash it out? I see it says maximum cashout $30 every three days on the biggest ones. Will those rules magically change when our cash is in their hands :(

Based on the minimum cashout and the days between cashouts, I guess we will be able to *request* them.
However, I would be more concerned about the actual waiting period until the payment is processed.. :P

Just keep an eye for green flags too, not just red ones.. looking too much at red color may cause health issues. :P
It's good that they did a step forward with their new designs and features, so we have to give them credit for that.

I'll take a look at their payouts forum to see if people state anything about waiting times, delays etc.
If they have improved their old delays too, maybe they'd be worth a fresh shot.

Green flags may not pan out but red flags can kill you or take your money. If they aren't dangerous then they shouldn't be labeled red.  :)

Generally speaking, I ain't going to go around searching for new programs. Certainly not to the extent I was for a while there.

However, this happened to be placed right in front of me right here in the forum, not to also mention the potential teamwork we could do here.

Besides, at least I did also ask a good, constructive question...  ;)

I don't disagree with that, of course I do pay attention to red signs everywhere.. To be honest, I've always been kind of hysteric with safety measures in my life..

What I mean is that it's a bad habit to train our mind to only look at the negative/weak aspects in a program, or even worse in a person.. This way we might end up overlooking the good stuff too, or even worse, if it's a general way of thinking we can even grow depressions just by not filtering our thoughts..

Nowadays there's danger and bad news everywhere.. so I think we should be careful what we feed our mind with. :)

Now getting back to the Zigma Network, I've been played a fool by them multiple times in the past, so it's not like I would hop on to their train that easily again, but subjectively thinking I can't overlook that they did a good job with giving their sites a refresh.

If they also refreshed their way of dealing with their members and playing with rules, I'd be happy to give them credit for that.
Either way, time will tell.. :dontknow

It's around 1 week, give or take a couple of days.
I have the Special 250 in Silverclix and the Special 500 in Goldenclix. With the Special 250, you should be able to cashout most of it without it pilling up too much in the account balance.
With the highest one you do acumulate some cash in the account balance, which you can either use to renew your upgrade or spend on advertising.

Is that with referral earnings too or just from solo clicking?

Mostly solo clicking. I have 50 referrals or so, so it doesn't matter much

If we were in an industry that didn't have a 90+% failure rate I might tend to agree with you but this industry is 'special'. Most of our spending is akin to gambling, or worse. I'm shocked at how long I've lasted but some of those 10%ers really do play out or I would have been gone long ago.

It's a multi-pronged problem. We have the general swindlers. Then we have the admin incompetents who have no clue how the market or economics work. And then we even have a few honest ones who get burned by cheating members. If a person can get through those messes not only is he a good owner, he is a flippen' superhero

rui,

Is GoldenClix also a PTP? Do they have promotion contests, etc?

At some point they had a PTP typical of Evolution Script sites, where the conversion rate depended on the ratio of signups.
But now I'm not finding it in the new version. They do have some other stuff including referral contests.

[EDIT] Ok, so I looked into it more and Silverclix still has that PTP System, but not Goldenclix. But an interesting feature that exists only in Goldenclix is the task bonuses. For example, if you click 50% of all available PTC ads, you get 5% extra. If you click all the ads, you get 10% extra. Same thing for bonus ads and other sections. When you have high-value ads, even in the rest is low value, getting 10% extra of all the ads you clicked that day amounts to something.

My Special 250 membership on Silverclix ended yesterday, so I was checking some stats. Over these 90 days I managed to withdraw $220,5 with another pending cashout and around $70 in my main balance with a bit of income from referrals. Overall it was a good run and I can use this cash for the next upgrade.
