ySense referral bonus

New member: Not applicable while the referral programme is suspended. ySense occasionally runs promotional new member offers that vary by country and period, separate from referrals.

Referrer: Suspended as of 2026-08-30: ySense's affiliate page states the programme is temporarily unavailable pending a review. When running, it paid a signup commission of $0.10, or $0.30 for referrals from top tier countries, plus a further $2.00 once a referral earned their first $5, and an ongoing percentage of what they earned from approved surveys, offers and tasks. That percentage was reported at various times as 10%, 20% and 30%, so it was already unstable before the suspension.

Taken from ySense's own published terms and last checked on August 30, 2026. Referral offers move, sometimes without announcement, so treat the terms shown at signup as final.

Getting the money out

A bonus is only worth what you can actually withdraw, so the two numbers that matter alongside it are the floor and the routes out.

Minimum payout
Reported between $5 and $10 for PayPal depending on account standing and region, and around $25 for Payoneer. Check the cashout page for your own figure, since sources disagree and it appears to vary.
Payout methods
PayPal, Skrill, Payoneer, and gift cards including Amazon and Walmart

Worth knowing

Open worldwide to members 16 and over, though PayPal's own rules mean you need to be 18 to cash out that way. ySense's terms prohibit sending referral traffic from paid search ads, redirects, pop unders and similar manipulations, which is the same clause Swagbucks carries and rules out advertising a referral link rather than sharing one. Sharing is explicitly encouraged: ySense's own guidance tells members to promote creatively and to disclose the financial benefit under FTC guidelines when promoting to US consumers. Keep screenshots of completed offers; credit disputes are the usual complaint here, as on every site running third-party offer walls.
