Check an opportunity before you start

A five-minute check can save an expensive mistake.

Spot scams and protect your account

Be wary of pressure, unexpected payments and requests for secrecy.

Bank-switch rewards: read the conditions

Check the full requirements, not just the advertised bonus.

Cashback: tracking, exclusions and missing payments

Treat cashback as a possible extra, not money already earned.

Research panels and paid surveys

Check who is collecting your information and what your time is worth.

Freebies, subscriptions and trial reminders

“Free” can come with delivery costs, renewals or marketing conditions.

Keep useful earning and tax records

Separate expected rewards from payments you have actually received.

What to do if something goes wrong

Act promptly, preserve evidence and use verified help channels.
