Honestly, I can't see why I would pay for a referral on here or on any other site. The reason, I have four referrals on fusion cash right now and only two of them have even verified their account. Of those two, only one of them have ever completed an offer. So, I can safely say that I would be losing money to buy referrals.

That is the thing that you have to keep in mind when looking a referrals, there is occasionally one or two that will be active on a site, but the vast majority of them will not.

Look at OldBuddy for example, he stated that he has over 800 referrals and only 5-10 of them cash out each month, that means that only approximately 1% of all of his referrals are regularly active on the site.

In all fairness to my cherished referrals, that is not entirely accurate. Some of them take much longer than one month to cash out, but they are none the less valued. I have also had some months where as many as 15 cashed out, so the number is probably closer to 5% that are active at some level. And who knows when a new one will see an ad some day and grab his old account with new vigor.

Hello,

I like that fusion cash is free mostly.  This is why I keep coming back.

I like the fact that they don't deactivate your referrals if they have been inactive.  Like Oldbuddy says, just because someone has not seen the value in their account, one day they may wake up and come back and see what it is all about.  It is nice that the work you did to get them may eventually pay off even if it doesn't at first.  I have about 39 referrals and only one ever cashes out.  It takes a lot of referrals to get even one that stays active, but if you find a pretty simple way to get them that doesn't take tons of time it could add up over time.
