What you need before starting:

The needs are minimal, but they’re not flexible. If you’re missing any of the following, you’ll need to get them before you start your freebie trading career. If you’re unable to meet any of these requirements, it’s just not going to work for you, and I’d prefer you know that now before spending any more time on this.

1. You must be at least 18 years old.

2. You must have a PayPal account. Getting a PayPal account is free and takes about fifteen minutes. If you don’t have a PayPal account, you can get one here. You’ll eventually need to get the account verified, which takes 3-5 business days, but that’s NOT necessary to begin. For details on how to get your PayPal account verified, log into your PayPal account and click on the link that says “Status: Unverified”

3. You must have a valid credit or debit card. (NOT a gift card or a pre-paid credit card.

4. You must have a valid home phone number. A cell phone is fine, but neither Vonage, Skype, nor any other VoIP will work for freebie-trading.

That’s it. If you meet all four of these qualifications, you can be making money on line by trading freebies within the next hour.  There are a few rules you should know as well:

1. Nearly 100% of the offers are only good once per household.  Never do the same offer twice, even on different IFWs.

2. Always use real contact information.  They check this every time.

3. Since the offers are only good one time per household, the IFWs only allow one account per household. Never let anyone else register from your home, or your account is likely to be suspended.  If you want to refer your friends to the sites, make sure that they use their own computers, not yours.  Similarly, only log on to the IFWs from your home computer.  Checking your status from work, school, or anywhere else raises red flags.  If you forget, it can be fixed, but it’s a nuisance you don’t need.

And that’s it!  You can move on to my “Get Started” pages and just get started if you want, but I promise that you’ll be more successful if you contact me before you do.  I’ll be happy to give you step-by-step instructions on the phone, by IM, or by email.  The tutorials are great, but there’s no substitute for live support.  All of my contact information is at the bottom of this page.  Please don’t phone me after midnight Eastern time.  I can’t talk on the phone and access my computer without waking my wife.  She’ll be unhappy, and I’ll be in trouble.  I’m usually up a bit later than that for IM/email support, but not for the phone.  Thanks.
