If haven’t already heard, the World Cup begins today!

As BeRuby is available in 9, yes, 9 different countries, it’s an interesting time for us in the office. Germany, Brazil, France, the UK, Holland, Italy, Portugal, Spain and of course the United States are all competing for the grand championship with lots of might and determination. While we all can’t be with the crowds and the teams in Johannesburg, BeRuby is ready to join in the excitement with our World Cup Invite-a-Friend promotion.

Here’s how it works:

First, we’ll start off by giving you $0.05 for every friend you invite to BeRuby, otherwise known as a referral. Depending on how the USA team does, we’ll up the amount.

So, get your red, white and blue on and hope our guys can go far, so you’ll have a little extra money in your pocket! Naturally, the more people you invite to BeRuby, the more money you will make. Especially, if we can get past the first round!

Here’s a break down of the rounds and how they will be “priced”:

Dates:

This promotion starts, June 11, and will include any referrals you have through July 11, 2010. Hopefully, it will be a month full of “gooooooooal!”! for the US and for your BeRuby account.

• A minimum of $0.05 will be given for every new user you bring to BeRuby. You may be living outside of the US, but the friends you bring to BeRuby must reside in the US to count for $0.05

How can I earn money on BeRuby?

If you are unsure about how BeRuby works in regards to payments, here’s some important information.

First:

It is important to remember that there are different payout times for different advertisers.

For example, a visit to the BeRuby blog will show up immediately in your Pending Balance. At the end of the month, when we pay the bills, it will be converted to your Confirmed Balance.

It works a bit differently when you complete a registration or purchase. If completed correctly, your purchase will register in your Pending Balance within 2 to 3 days after the action date. Then, it will be converted to your Confirmed Balance when the advertiser pays us. This usually takes 1 to 3 months. It just depends on how quickly they pay their bills! Typically, BeRuby enters in all existing payments at the end of the month, so keep an eye out for an increase in your Confirmed Balance around that time.

If after a few days you don’t see your purchase or registration in your Pending Balance, you can make a claim with BeRuby so we can investigate what went wrong. Remember to check the Terms and Conditions of the advertiser first, as you may not have completed their requirements. You can find this information by clicking on the commission amount, located next to the advertiser’s logo. Occasionally, visits may take a bit of time to register, but usually, they are automatic.

Second:

Once you have reached the minimum payout (in your Confirmed Balance), you can request a payment by clicking on the Balance tab in your BeRuby account. If you have reached this amount, you will see a link allowing you to request your payment. At this time, we only make payments through PayPal. If you have another idea of how payments should be made, (other than electronic transfer companies like PayPal) feel free to let us know!

Remember that you can request your payment via AlertPay.

Just send your AlertPay account data. If you do not have an account, you can create one for free.

 If you want to take part in the 10 cents for each friend you bring to BeRuby promotion, but you don’t know how to invite your friends, here’s a quick guide.

Now, you can choose from two options.
First, you can write an invitation email from your own email box and simply copy and paste your special link (this lets us know that you invited the new member) into the email.

Secondly, you can put your friend’s email addresses into the blank box and then send our default invitation message (you may edit this message if you’d like), then press the send button. Don’t worry, we don’t store these email addesses anywhere and we promise not to send them any other mail!

Once your friends have registered and confirmed their account (and they meet the necessary requirements of the promotion) you will be in line for your 10p. Remember, all payments for this promotion will be given in early March, after we have the grand totals.

With over 500 advertisers at BeRuby you can easily find stores to meet your needs. Here is some valuable information related to purchases on BeRuby.

BeRuby Links

First and foremost, to be eligible to earn any money for your purchase, you MUST use the links on the BeRuby page. When you click on these links and purchase (register/click) something, the advertiser recognizes that you are from BeRuby and pays us a commission, which we share with you. This is very important because if you use any other link the advertiser will not pay us.

It is easy to use our links to get to your favorite stores. Simply search for them in BeRuby, check out the Directory, or click the Advertisers tab.

How do I know how much money I will earn when I buy something through BeRuby?

The amount of money you can earn from visiting, registering or purchasing through BeRuby can be seen below:

Notice the circled area. This number tells you the amount of the purchase you can earn back. It is important to click on this number, as it will explain any terms and conditions.

Another item to mention is that in the circle you see the word “shop” this means that you will receive this commission when you make a purchase. Other commissions may fall under the “Visit” or “Register” category.

What should I expect once I’ve completed a purchase (registration or click)?

Once you have completed an action (purchase, registration or click) it will take 2 days to show up on your account under the estimated list. It will remain estimated until the advertiser pays us. This time depends on the advertiser.

You can check your balance at any time by clicking on the “My Balance” tab in your BeRuby account. After 2 days if a transaction has not appeared in your account, you are welcome to make a claim. Please include all requested information so that we can expidite your claim as quickly as possible. Additionally,  please make sure you followed all terms and conditions listed by the advertiser and that you used the links provided on BeRuby to navigate to the Advertiser’s website.

Do you have friends in Germany? Your brother is studying in Paris? Do not forget all this as it is important to expand your network in other countries.

And remember, as BeRuby user can also register in all countries but do not live in them.

What do I need to do to be part of BeRuby.com and earn money?

To register with BeRuby.com you just need to provide your email address, a password and the email address of the friend that invited you. If you prefer, you can designate a non-profit organization to receive part of your earnings from using the BeRuby site.

Your account is immediately activated and you can set BeRuby as your homepage to search the web, check your email or do your shopping. All the logos of the companies that you see in BeRuby take you directly to their internet sites. Remember to use BeRuby as your starting point for every search, purchase, etc., so that you can earn money!

Only sites with a Ruby symbol next to them generate cash back.
                        

How do I earn money using BeRuby.com?

It’s easy! BeRuby shows you all the companies that pay some kind of a commission when you use their services, or buy from their site. On the BeRuby site, we indicate which companies provide a commission with either one, two or three rubies. Do you use BeRuby? Earn money doing it!

The more rubies located next to the site’s logo, the more money you can earn. The rubies indicate the companies with which we have a commercial agreement and where you can earn money.

Commissions can be earned from different activities: shopping online, registration, or simply by visiting a site.

Finally, you need to take into account that there will be sites that earn you no money, but that you probably use every day (like your email, your favorite search engine, or even a social networking site). We have listed all the most popular sites in once place, so you can personalize your BeRuby page in any way you’d like.

The important thing to remember is that by using BeRuby as your starting point for all your web activities, gradually you will find you do earn money. And isn’t it about time to start making money from your use of the internet, instead of just spending money?
                        

What do I need to do to incude other sites on my homepage?

All the boxes on your BeRuby homepage have a “+” symbol (found in the bottom right area of each module) that will take you to a page where you choose four logos to display in that module. If you cannot find a site you would like to have, please let us know and we will add it for you. BeRuby is all about user choice: we want you to be able to personalize the page with whatever site you wish!

Remember that you can personalize the “weather” module with your local weather forecast. Just enter your zip code on your Full Profile page, and the weather for your city will be displayed.
                        

I have just bought online; why doesn’t the “Balance” on my account increase?

In order to earn money, two things need to happen: first, the site needs to have one or more rubies next to its logo in the BeRuby portal; second, you need to buy (or register or visit) from the company after visiting the site from a BeRuby link.

Once you have bought online, BeRuby needs to have confirmation from the store that this transaction took place… this may take from a couple of hours to a couple of weeks (depending on the merchant).
               

On my Account Page, what is the difference between “Pending Balance,” “Confirmed Balance,” and “Total Account Balance?”

Pending Balance: When you complete an online activity through BeRuby (such as buying online or registering on a site), the company will first need to tell BeRuby that this activity actually took place. When this happens, your pending balance is calculated.

Confirmed Balance: When a company which you have made a transaction with pays BeRuby, the amount is “confirmed” by the outside source, and your confirmed balance goes up. At the same time, your pending balance will decrease by the same amount.

Please note that your “Confirmed Balance” will show a zero balance until such time as the minimum threshold of $10.00 is met.

Total Account Balance: This is the total amount of money (Pending plus Confirmed) that you can expect from BeRuby.
                 

When and how do I get paid?

You can ask for the confirmed amount to be paid to you at any given time. Please note that there will be a processing cost of $2 if the amount paid to you is less than $100. After you reach the $100 threshold, the transfers are free of charge.

The initial method for payments will be via an email transfer to your PayPal account. PayPal is an online e-commerce business that allows payments to be made through the internet.

You can sign up for a PayPal account at any given time – if you do not have an account, you can sign up here. Once your money is in PayPal it is very easy to transfer to your bank account or to your credit or debit card.

How much money do you pay out?

A third of all the commissions generated by your own activity will go directly to you.

In addition to this, you will earn a sixth of all the commissions generated by your friends and by the friends of your friends. If you recommend the site to ten friends and those 10 people recommend the site to another 10, you will be earning a sixth of the commissions generated by 100 MiRuby users.
           

How much money can I earn?

The amount of money that you make will be determined by your activity on the net. If you frequently shop online, make travel bookings and register on community sites you will earn more revenues than a less active person.

Your network will also play a key role in determining how much revenues you earn. A network of 10 people inviting another 10 people will enable you to earn part of the commissions generated by 100 people. A network of 20 people inviting another 20 people will allow you to earn part of the commissions generated by 400 people!
    

How do I invite friends to my network?

Just visit the “Invite” section and write the email that you will like your friends to see; put in their email address and you are all set.

You can also copy your personalized link that you see in the “Invite section” and send that link over to your friends.

Finally, you can ask them to register and tell them to include your email address in their sign-in process.

BeRuby.com pays you cash back for your activity on the web.

BeRuby.com has commission agreements with all the sites that display a Ruby symbol and gives one third of these commissions back to you (through shopping, registering or sometime just visiting the site). The amount of commission that the user receives will vary by site and will often depend on how much is purchased from the merchant. The more rubies that are displayed next to the store, the bigger the potential commission.  For specifics, go to the commissions page, and click on the icons under the Visit, Register or Shop column to find out how to earn your cash back on that site.

On your direct commissions from the sites with rubies, you receive 33% (or one third) of the cash back generated. Another 33% (or one third) of the cash back generated goes to one of the non-profits working with BeRuby.com.

BeRuby.com pays you commission for the activity of your network and friends.

BeRuby.com pays you cash back from your own activity (”direct”) and also from the activity of the friends and contacts that you refer (your “network”). When someone you invite joins BeRuby.com, you will receive 16.6% (or one sixth) of all the revenues generated by that person for life and another one sixth from all the people that they invite. The BeRuby.com network marketing effect lets you exponentially grow your earnings! For example, if you invite 10 people and they each invite 10 more you will earn lifetime commissions from 100 people!

You receive 16.6% (or one sixth) of the cash back from each and every person in your network (up to two degrees away from you), for the entirety of the time they are using BeRuby.com, paid out over your lifetime. Then you can decide how to use your earnings, whether immediately, or by saving them up over time to pay for something special. In addition, your network helps you generate money for a designated BeRuby.com non-profit.

How much Money can I earn from BeRuby.com?

The amount of cash back that you earn from BeRuby.com is determined by how much you use the BeRuby.com service and the size of your BeRuby.com network. Every time someone that you invited joins BeRuby.com you get one sixth of the earnings that they generate, for life, and you get another sixth of the commission for each person they invite. The larger your network the more you can earn, both directly and indirectly.

The best part is that you are simply receiving cash back from activities you would normally already do on the Web: shopping for presents, searching the Web, buying your next travel tickets, etc. Just remember you only earn cash back from sites with a Ruby next to them.

BeRuby.com keeps you updated on the revenues you have earned.

BeRuby.com provides you with information on all the revenue that you have earned both directly and through your network. This information is updated regularly, although it is based on the information that is supplied to us by the different merchants, so there will be a delay between when you shop at a site and when your balance is updated.
