Join to earn rewards, samples and have discussions with great brands and people.

I joined Crowdtap eight months ago not knowing what to expect. This site is great to interact with brands and members.
The site is much like a game site and has been described as such by other reviews in magazines. Users are able to earn points and climb through the levels by logging in, answering quick hits (polls) about brands and general questions random users are given rewards 1 in 25 wins. Referral bonuses are as follows, for 5 friends who join under you, 5.00 is awarded plus 100 points for each one.
Discussions are also a huge part of the earning power of this site. Users are given a question and then answer with their opinions. Each day users are given 25 points for their comments and for their first response to a topic 200 points.  One of the current topics for June 2011 is "What social sites do you belong to and why". Users are able to comment and give likes on the responses of members. Crowdtap and or the brands engaging the members award stars for great posts and each star is worth 400 points, for every 5 likes a user gets on their post a 50 point award is given. These points help a member gain status and a higher level. At the end of the discussion, winners are chosen and awarded Crowtap cash, that is redeemed for Amazon Gift Cards. I have earned about $300 so far and really enjoy the discussions. Badges are awarded and are fun to show on a members profile.
One of the great things that make this site stand out from the others is 5 percent of a users award is automatically donated to the charity that the user selects and Crowdtap meets the donation with 5 percent more. Users can also decide to give all their earning to charity also.
The brands offer sampling and house party's to some of the members who fit the demographics and some of the things that they have offered so far include Old Navy Jeans, shorts, dresses and accessories. Hawaiian Tropic House Party, Platex Sport Wipes and a few others. Members are given these samples and are asked to submit a report on the product. Earning rewards for their reports.
