Frequently Asked Questions
How can companies afford to give away free gadgets?
One reason – commission. When you sign up to an offer, the company you sign up with (e.g. Lovefilm) pays a commission. When your family/friends sign up a commission is
paid again. This money pays for your gifts. It’s a simple idea and works!
This definitely works then?
Yes it does! The BBC (News 24 & Newsnight), NBC, CNN and the New York Times have all investigated this phenomenon and confirmed that these sites actually work. Check
out
Exceem for more proof (see the ‘I Got My Free Item!’ part of the forum).
Is this totally free - will it cost me anything at all?
When you sign up you need to complete an offer. Some are free (e.g. Lovefilm) whilst some have a small deposit (£5 or £10 at most) which you may get back. So, it can be
100% free but even spending £5 to get a
games console, iPhone or Macbook isn’t a bad deal!
Which countries do you support?
Our offers are now available to residents through the world, no matter where you reside. Please note that some of the offers may vary depending on your location.
Is it safe to provide my email address when I sign up?
I only deal with trusted companies who have a proven track record of delivering
free gadgets. These
companies will never share or sell your information. You can be 100% confident that you will not receive any unsolicited emails.
What is a referral?
Once you sign up you will be given your unique referral link. This is what your family and friends need to use when they sign up. These sign ups are also known as referrals.
I can’t get enough family/friends to sign up – what can I do?
Don’t worry. There are many other ways you can get people to sign up:
- Join an exceem.co.uk conga and get two referrals for completing one offer.
- Create a blog/website or email your colleagues and associates.
- Distribute some cards or flyers around your local area.
- Put an advert on your local free ads board or newsagents window.
- Get your facebook or bebo friends to sign up.
- Give people some cash to sign up. It's worthwhile if you’re getting a free PS3 or Macbook!
Is there anything else I should know?
Please don’t be temped to sign up under different names from the same computer or household. You will be found out and your genuine referrals will be wasted and your
account probably put on hold.
