How do you earn cash with Gomez PEER?
Once your account is active, monthly payments are automatically deposited into your PayPal account as long as the monthly minimum payment is reached. Active PEERs that do not meet the monthly minimum payment amount will have their account balances carried over to the next month's earnings.
You can also earn bonus payments for referring friends. See our Refer a Friend page after applying for more details.
The Basics
- The Gomez PEER application only works when your machine is connected to Internet – so make sure you’re online as often as possible to maximize your earnings potential.
- After downloading the Gomez PEER and making sure you’re connected to the Internet, make sure to run the application as often as possible. Running the application in the background of your system as often as possible ensures that your machine will take advantage of all the testing opportunities available in your area. The more tests your PEER application executes the higher your payment.
Becoming Active
- Only PEERs with accrued system activity and online time will be activated. So run the Gomez PEER application as often as possible to increase your chances of being activated.
- Verify that the Internet connection type, country, and zip/postal code you indicated in the "Preferences" menu in the Gomez PEER application window matches the true location and bandwidth of your machine. Inaccurate information will make you ineligible for activation.
- Ensure that you completed the online application form completely by logging in to your account and clicking on “Change your profile.” Invalid or incomplete home address, email address and payment information can prevent you from being selected as an active PEER.
Maximize Earnings
- Increase your Online Time: Spend more time connected to the Internet and watch your Online Time figures increase! Plus, the more time you're online, the greater the chance of accumulating Processing Time!
