One of the simplest forms of making extra money on the internet is through sites known as GPT (Get Paid To) sites.
The most famous one of them all being SwagBucks, which we reviewed recently.
Some people confuse these for paid survey sites, but they are not!
These are basically a form of loyalty and reward programs where you are rewarded for doing a variety of online tasks – reading emails, completing offers, shopping online, visiting advertiser websites, and so on.

They may have a survey for you to take here and there, but they are not actual market research companies that conduct studies.
And while there are a lot of them, like many others, you probably find the payment method to be an important consideration.
While most GPT sites pay weekly or monthly, there are those that pay after 24 hours or even instantly.
The difficult part is in finding these sites, especially since there are already too many GPT sites out there today.
The good news is we’ve already done the work for you and scoured the entire Internet just looking for the gems that pay instantly.
After searching long and wide, even taking the pains of going through pages and pages of the top-rated GPT forms, we compiled a list of instant payment GPT sites that are totally legit.
Keep in mind though that there are GPT sites that pay, for the most part, immediately. They may not pay in the next second, but you will receive the payment within 24 hours, even on the weekends.
1. InstaGC
This site is very popular amongst stay at home moms and anybody how loves getting free gift cards.
It works the same way as other sites featured here, as far as earning goes, but the main difference here is that you get paid in the form of gift cards.
Since these are digital codes, like Amazon gift card, you receive them via email the moment you redeem your earning.
2. Points2Shop
While Point2shop is considered an instant payment GPT site, sometimes, you have to wait for 4 hours.
But the great thing about the site, especially if you live outside the United States, is that they allow international users.
At the moment, this GPT site has more than 5 million members and counting.
If you can tolerate the delay every now and then, make it a point to join.
Payment methods include Dwolla, PayPal, gift cards, checks, and more.
3. Quick Rewards
This is my favorite online rewards program.
Despite it being awesome, it is relatively unknown, compared to other sites like SwagBucks or MyPoints.com.
Not only there are tons of ways to earn free money, they also allow you to get paid in many forms, from PayPal payment, to check, gift cards, magazine subscriptions and more.
Perhaps the best part of this site is that there is no waiting to get paid, there is no minimum requirement for cashing out.
Yes, you can cash out even if you have 1 cent in your account.
And to top that, if you cash out via PayPal, you will receive it in a matter of hours.
The fastest I have gotten paid was 15 minuets after requesting a cash out. Now that is fast!
4. SquishyCash
SquishyCash is one of the many instant paying GPT sites out there today.
All you need to do is to reach the minimum payout requirement of $20, request the payment, and you’ll get it immediately with no fees deducted.
You can be paid through Skrill, PayPal, and gift cards.
5. Irazoo
If you’re so used to GPT websites that require you to have a minimum of $20 for payout, irazoo.com will surprise you.
Here, the minimum payout is a $1 and they can send it to you through Liberty Reserve, PayPal, and Payza.
6. Treasure Trooper
Another top-rated site with instant payment is TreasureTrooper.
This site features surveys, tasks, offers, and even has an online treasure hunt where you can win a $100.
If you love playing games, then you will enjoy this website.
You can be paid through gift cards, checks, and PayPal.
7. Get-Paid
This site has been around since 1999, and if I am not mistaken, it’s the oldest GPT site ever.
While they do not “technically” make instant payments, you will often get your payment within 24 hours. In fact, speaking from experience, I’ve had payouts in a little under five hours.
You can earn money by taking advantage of offers and filling out surveys where you are awarded with GetPaid coins.
These coins can be redeemed through Payza, PayPal, Western Union, WebMoney, Neteller, and Perfect Money, among others.
Even better, the minimum payout is 50 cents, which amounts to 250 GetPaid coins.
8. RewardingWays
Rewardingways is another GPT website that offers instant payment.
You can work on tasks, fill out surveys, and complete offers.
Unfortunately, they can easily mark you as a “cheater” account the minute that you login in using another IP address than what you typically use.
Rewardingways can pay you through gift cards, check, Payza, and Paying.
9. SuperPay
Superpay is another fantastic website that combines PTC and GPT, while paying their members instantly.
Payment methods include Payza, PayPal, Neteller, and Moneybookers.
You can also get paid via gift cards.
Tip
If you want instant payment, you need to make sure you have an account with online payment systems used by these GPT sites.
Here is a list of the most popular online payment systems used by most Get Paid To site for paying their members:
Final word
Remember that if you really want to make money with GPT websites, you need to join a ton of them.
Take the time to complete surveys every single day, find out how to earn from referrals, and so on.
That said, don’t count on them as a way to make a living. Online rewards programs are great for side income, that’s all.
They aren’t going to replace your day job.
As we discover more instant payment GPT websites, we will update this post.
thanks for this post ! have you personally tried any of these? If so which one would be your top one ?
Hi Crystal,
Yes, I have tried some of them myself, including QuickRewards, Pointst2Shop, Treasure Trooper, and InstaGC.
If I had to choose one, it would be QuickRewards. There were time where I got my payment within 15 minutes of requesting it. And I like the fact the owner of the site is very active and involved with his members.
What is the easiest way to make money with quickrewards? I was trying to use t but got confused as I am not really too familiar with these sites..kind of a newbie.
It depends. I’d go with surveys, free offers (sign ups, newsletter subscription etc.)
thanks guess ill give that website another shot been having problems with offers not posting but ill try again. thanks
Yeah, that’s one problem with may of these rewards sites. Sometimes offers don’t credit correctly.
Be sure to clear your cookies before doing offers. That’s one way to make sure you are credited.
Thank you great information.
You are very welcome, Connie.
Have you joined any of these sites yet?
Sir,
I am Pranav and I live in India………all these sites which you have listed here doesn’t provide any facility to users from India,that is really frustrating
And also to mention the famous gpt site Swagbucks is really waste if you are from India…..total waste of time
Could you please tell if there are sites which pay to its Indian members also….it will be really helpful for me
Thank You
Pranav, for you it may be a waste of time, but I write for everyone and not just people in India or any other specific country. That said, most surveys and reward sites target people in the U.S., and a few other western countries.
I am a filipino and I am very curious about this job but as I know this is a easiest thing to earn money.
Thank you so much Satrap for your informative posts, I have been sifting through them over the weekend, looking to supplement my work at home income. Although some of the postings are roughly a year old, they have given me some hope that I can possibly stay at home and be with my children in the evenings and work on tasks during the day while they’re gone.
I’ve had quite a lot of luck with Instagc, having used it maybe 30% of the year and I have made around $260. I have only done surveys, none of the other tasks really. Alot of the other users like the crowd flower tasks, but I can’t speak from personal experience. There are even tasks where you can listen to the radio and watch videos for money. I haven’t had much luck with the offers, usually seem never ending, and after I spend all the time going through the whole sign up process, I can’t even get the offer to credit.
If you are a Facebook user, they often post point codes on their Facebook page to redeem for free points. If you enable the chat ticker, they post point booster codes throughout the day, often to only the first 5 to 10 users. Alas, free money is free money!!
The first $50 you earn, is paid in gift cards, from there you can cash out to PayPal. You can even cash out for as little as $1. I have never used the paper check option or direct deposit choice, so I cannot speak from personal experience with either of them.
Most cases, my payment has directly posted to PayPal within 5 minutes of cashing out, there was a problem one time, where I had an issue with their servers, it took me around 15 minutes for it to post. Pretty good odds though, one time 15 minute wait and every other cash out for nearly the last year in five minutes or less. Of course, that is save the first time I cashed out to PayPal, it took 24-48 hours to post. Somehow I always manage to over look that fine print!!
Another thing I liked about Instagc is that they have a good amount of information explaining the how-to and what have you to be fairly successful.
They even have a link to refer users to sign up under you, you receive so many points and then receive a percentage of what they earn. I didn’t really refer anyone, a family member invited me to the site.
Thanks for sharing your experience, Alley.
Do any of these sites operate in South Africa?
No.
This is a fascinating blog. Personally, I’ve been earning online for several years. Some of my favorite GPT sites include; FusionCash, Swagbucks and Inboxdollars. I especially like using ‘paid to search’ search engines because I’m always looking for information when I’m online.
The GPT sites that I visit that are great for international members are GrabPoints and GiftHulk. All of the site I visit PAY. I wouldn’t waste my time on anything else.
