As we continue to grow and onboard more companies, rewards can vary. Please don't uninstall the extension during periods of lower rewards - your continued support helps us expand our network and increase rewards for everyone. The more users we have, the more companies we can partner with, leading to better and more consistent earnings for all users.
Your shared bandwidth enables companies to access websites from specific countries to gather public data they need (like product prices). For example, a company might need to see product prices on Amazon Spain. The websites are opened in sessionless iframes, ensuring no personal data is transmitted. We have strict rate limits and bandwidth checks to maintain your browsing experience, and all accessed domains are checked against a security blacklist.
Absolutely! We prioritize your security and privacy. We implement strict security measures: 1) All companies using our network are personally vetted, 2) Domains are checked against a security blacklist, 3) Websites are accessed through sessionless iframes preventing any personal data transmission, 4) We enforce strict rate limits and bandwidth checks to protect your browsing experience, and 5) We use Mellowtel's secure technology to ensure all traffic is encrypted.
We allocate 80% of our profits directly to tree planting initiatives through verified reforestation partners once we accumulate $50 (to minimize transaction fees). The remaining 20% is invested in developing new ecological projects and maintaining our infrastructure to ensure sustainable impact.
With just 5,000 active users, we can plant approximately 150,000 trees yearly! As our community grows, this number increases dramatically, making an even bigger impact on global reforestation efforts.
We work with established reforestation partners who handle the actual tree planting. Each tree costs approximately $0.33 to plant, and we maintain transparency about our tree-planting progress through our real-time impact tracker.
Not at all! Our extension is super lightweight and designed to be unnoticeable. We regularly perform speed checks to ensure zero impact on your browsing experience. The extension only uses your idle bandwidth when you're not actively using it, so your regular internet activities remain completely unaffected.
