Our goal is to provide internet users a place to earn money using the web on a day to day basis. It's easy, sign up and start discussions, post responses or comments to current discussions, or refer friends! A myLot account is all you need to get started. You will be able to view your earnings on a daily basis when you sign in.
How does this work?
We have implemented a system to give everyone who uses the internet the ability to make money. The idea is pretty simple - if you contribute to the myLot Community - whether it is by posting a new discussion, responding to a current discussion, commenting on a current discussion, or referring friends, you earn money. Our goal is to provide internet users a place to earn money using the web on a day to day basis and provide access to information they need.
We pay each and every member of myLot based on their level of activity. As stated previously all you need to do is sign up for a myLot account and we do the rest.
How do I set it up?
We can’t stress to you enough how simple the set up process is, all you need to do to start earning is sign up for a myLot account and become a user.
How do I get Paid?
Get paid monthly with minimum account balance of $10 and carry forward of unpaid amounts. You have the option to increase your minimum payment to $25, $50 or $100. All payments will be in US dollars and made via PayPal, depending on the country you reside in. All users will be required to have a valid PayPal account. myLot is not responsible for any fees incurred in the payment process (i.e. translation fees, bank fees, credit card fees, PayPal fees, etc.) Click here to learn how to sign up for a PayPal account. We are only able to pay users residing in countries where PayPal offers their services. Click here to see the list of countries.
While we would love to pay everyone, regulations set forth by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), an office of the US Treasury, prohibits myLot is from sending money to certain countries. The good news is users from all countries will still be able to participate in myLot discussions, the bad news is users from countries included on the OFAC list will not be able to earn money for their contributions. Click here for a list of countries where OFAC prohibits myLot from sending money.
myLot retains the right to refuse payment to any myLot user for any reason.

What can I do to increase my earnings?
What an excellent question, and one we hope every myLot user will ask.
Use myLot, post discussions, respond to discussions.
Post quality content. For example, generate discussions that engage other users and provide insightful responses and comments to other users discussions to further the topic.
Refer friends. For each person you send to myLot you will receive 25% of their earnings.

It’s simple to refer new users. Just send out the following link to users you’d like to recruit.

Why does myLot reward its users financially?
We believe users are the most valuable asset to the longevity of any website so why only provide them with a service, why not reward them financially?
