Want to know how much you need to earn before you can cash out? Here's how minimum cash-out amounts and the welcome bonus work on EarnStar.
Do I get a welcome bonus?
Yes. New members receive a $5 welcome bonus when they open their account. It's added to your balance automatically, so there's nothing you need to claim or enter.
What are the first-claim rules?
Your first cash-out has a higher minimum than the ones that come after it. Your first cash-out needs a balance of at least $20. Your $5 welcome bonus counts toward that $20. Once your balance reaches $20, you can process your first cash-out.
What is the minimum cash-out amount after my first claim?
After your first cash-out, you can cash out from $1.
