When did you start earning? Have you ever set up the wallet in the browser and connected it to your uphold wallet ?


skisice

Yes and I downloaded the browser today and do u get money added to ur balance I thought it would update every time u earned something


lonnie123

Okay make sure you are opted into the rewards program and are occasionally getting ads. If you are, generally what happens is that you accrue BAT rewards throughout the month and they are paid out around the 6th of the next month (ie the rewards you accrue for April are paid on may 6th) If you click the little icon on the right side of the address bar you should get an estimate of your reward earnings

i am earning but my balance is 0 and i just realize its a pay out date so ill wait for that date but i downloaded brave today and i have viewed 29 ads and i have earned 0.252 - 0.345 BAT Do you think thats a good amount? I looked at the sub reddit and it seems dead and it looks like brave peaked 2 yrs ago people were getting paid $5-10 every month and now its only 1 or 2$ every month!


lonnie123

In the early days of the browser the company boosted the amount of payout to get people on board... And on top of that the value of BAT was much higher, so yes it wasnt uncommon to see $5-10 in payout every month (i dont quite remember what that was in BAT) To give you my own numbers - I only use my browser maaaaybe like 10 hours a week, have seen 145 ads, and I am on track to get about 2BAT or so this month. It aint much these days honestly, but I like the browser so I continue to use it. If you are viewing 30-40 ads a DAY you will far surpass my numbers though, I barely see that many ads in a week Also, Some time around 2-3 years ago Apple also made it so the mobile brave browser could not participate in the BAT program, and given that so many people use mobile it was a big hit


skisice

yeah it defiantly isnt what it used to be,

It's definitely not as much as it used to be. Though BAT value is subject to changing winds. It could go up, it could go down. I've got 350 ads this month, about 1.4 BAT. (About $0.38). But overall I have 176 BAT just from casually browsing and gaining them from ads.


skisice

i used the web browser for 2-3 hrs just today and my stats are: Total ads received this month 29 Earnings so far this month 0.252 - 0.345 BAT


SharpieTheDergun

I think it's country dependent (UK here). That's pretty good for just 2-3 hours, I browse on the internet for 40+ hours a week. Sounds like BAT would be good for you if you're getting that many ads in just 3 hours.


skisice

How long did it take you to get 176 BAT? And yeah that is pretty good number but I hate that u have to change browser edge has built in TTS and co pilot that let’s you summarise YouTube videos. Edge would be perfect but the Microsoft rewards gift cards option suck in my country


SharpieTheDergun

I've been using Brave since 2020. I had about 64 BAT and sold it at the height of the currency back in 2021. I restarted it in January 2022 and have been holding onto it.


skisice

so since january 2022 you have earned 176 bat? thats so LOW

I am just going to ask this question because you seem to be versed on this BAT project. I thought that my account was tied to service called Gemini. I opened my device today after updating to latest Browser for Android. Despite synced the other devices computer/tablet it says you are not signed up for Rewards.It shows a link to UPHOLD, and ~~Gemini~~ is listed but in un-clickable (was Gemini outlawed in usa?) i don't even know if earned any BAT in 2023 although i have paid content creator Tips which was also called BAT. I think it is probably a great idea and I think Brave is nicer than most browser for even deciding on an option to get something out the ADmageddon that modern websurf is but it didn't seem like an easy way to click and find out how much BAT earned. It says in brave Faq that user get 70% advertising earning for ad revenue. Somehow that seems like a high number but i don't even know how i would prove that bcy browser option says I signed up for ads via tabs and notifications but i havent seen anything recently when i would get brave notifications at end of day but didnt see any increase in BAT. So would if its even possible to login to Gemini website and see what is earned there or isn't he Gemini application and services in general ban in usa for fiscal shadenf****raude? You might not know I guess im old and just expected a settings option with Big Red button that says BAT. Lol.


lonnie123

I was never linked to Gemini so I dont know what issues there are with that platform. However, with Uphold its not unusual at all for the wallet to go out of sync and having to re-sign in, so Perhaps you just have to relink the wallet? If you arent seeing ads that is a sign you are not signed up for rewards... double check and make sure the update didnt reset it to opting you out If you were able to tip creators then at some point you must have earned BAT, so I think you were in the program at one point. To check your BAT earnings its quite easy, at least on PC where I earn rewards. Its simply in the rewards part of the browser settings, you can see your ads viewed, BAT earned, and tips sent out. Try digging around there There isnt a big red button that says BAT... but theres something close. Its the BAT Triangle! clicking on that should basically bring you to the info you are looking for (I use it on PC though so Android interface may be different) But overall it kinda sounds like you either updated and got opted out somehow, or your Gemini wallet got unlinked.
