Money With Just A Click!
PTC (Paid To Click)
Earning money by visiting sites is the simplest way to define PTC. It's a business model that utilizes PTC websites bridging consumers and advertisers. Advertisements are displayed on the PTC website and are paid by advertisers. In turn, a viewer gets paid just by visiting the site advertised. Here are the PTC sites that offer such service.

Advertisements
PTC sites offer various ways for an individual to earn money. Viewing advertisements is the most common one. In Clixsense for example, you can click on the View Ads tab to see the advertisements available in your region. Ads come with a rate. Every time you click to visit a site being advertised, you will receive a corresponding credit. Different PTC sites each have different rates. Rates usually depend on the number of seconds an advertisement is being exposed. For example in Clixsense, an advertisement that needs exposure for 5 seconds is rated $0.001. You will earn money, $0.001, every time you click the ad to visit the site being advertised.
Once you click an ad, the PTC site, Clixsense for example, will load the advertised site you clicked in a different tab or window.
A picture CAPTCHA will appear at the top and the site advertised at the bottom after loading the page. Clixsense will require you to solve the CAPTCHA by clicking which of the 5 images contains a cat. Note that some PTC sites have a different way of thwarting spams. Some CAPTCHAs require you to carefully click which image is upside down while some presents a pattern. You will earn credits for solving the CAPTCHAs.
​
After solving the CAPTCHA and earning the credits, in the View Ads page, you will notice that the advertisement you clicked will have an indication that you have already visited it. The advertisements will refresh the next day.
The Grid
You won't miss playing with the PTC Grid because most PTC sites offer an additional feature to further boost your earnings everyday. All you need to do is to spend a few more clicks. You will have a chance of winning a certain credit by just clicking a cell on the picture that goes directly into your account balance. Each cells corresponds to different sponsor's site which are exposed for seconds. After the countdown, only then you will know whether you won or not. It's actually a sort of a gamble. You might say that the feature depends entirely on your luck. Considering the number of cells there is on a picture grid and its tendency to load up randomly every time you get back to it after viewing a sponsor's site you clicked from the latter, you might think that it's impossible to win but actually it's not and most PTC site display those accounts who recently won in the Grid.
​
Note: You need stay on the sponsor's site to allow the PTC sites countdown timer to finish. Plus, you should also make sure that you have a decent browser window size where the sponsor's site is viewable - it's best to maximize it. Only then you will know if you won the Grid or not.
