Common Questions

Everything you need to know

About tasks, credits, timing, and what happens when life gets in the way.

Credits are applied within 24 hours of task approval. Most tasks are reviewed within 2–4 hours of submission. You'll receive a notification the moment your credit clears — and you can watch your product progress bar move in real time.
You can change your goal product at any time as long as the new product is equal or lower in price to your current goal. All earned credits transfer automatically. You'll never lose progress — only gain flexibility.
Never. Your credits wait for you no matter how long you take. Your enrolled product price is also locked at enrollment — you'll never pay more even if the retailer raises prices. Take a month off. Take six. Your progress is yours.
Absolutely. The calculator uses average task availability and a conservative $18/hr rate. Power earners who complete high-value tasks consistently — UX sessions, beta tests, search evaluations — can earn significantly faster. Top earners report finishing $999 products in under 5 weeks.
Yes. EarnIt credits represent earned labor compensation. If you earn more than $600 in credits in a calendar year, EarnIt will issue a 1099-NEC form. We recommend consulting a tax advisor for your specific situation. We make all documentation available in your dashboard at tax time.
Most tasks work on any smartphone or laptop. Some tasks (like local store audits) require physical presence, and some UX sessions require screen recording capability. Your task dashboard only shows tasks compatible with your registered devices — you'll never see a task you can't actually complete.
