Ciao: When you write a review of a product or service, you are paid every time that another member reads and rates your review. You can also earn money by taking part in paid online surveys on a range of interesting topics from books to beauty products to breakfast cereals. Inviting your friends to become Ciao members also earns you money: for the first 6 months of their Ciao membership, you will earn a commission equal to 50% of their earnings on the Ciao website (excludes survey earnings).

Your earnings for ratings of your standard reviews by other members are calculated by multiplying the number of ratings per review by the remuneration rate for each of the reviews written. These totals are then added up and your overall earnings calculated once a month. In case of half pennies, the total is rounded up in member’s favor.

The different rates of remuneration are indicated by pound signs which appear next to the name of the product on the product overview page when you have logged in. The different payment levels are as follows: no pound sign is shown for non-remunerated products, one pound sign indicates 0.5p per rating, two pound signs 1p and three pound signs 2p.
