Can I use a VPN to complete offers?
This is a common question, and the answer is simple: No, you should not use a VPN to complete offers on EarnLab.
Why VPNs Are Not Allowed
Using a VPN, proxy, or any tool that masks or changes your location violates both EarnLab's Terms of Service and the Terms of Service of our offerwall providers. Here's why this rule exists:
Advertisers Pay for Real Users: Advertisers target specific regions because they want to reach genuine users in those markets. Using a VPN to fake your location is considered fraud.
Tracking Depends on Accurate Location: Offerwall providers use your location as part of their tracking and verification systems. A VPN can break this tracking entirely.
Offerwalls Have Detection Systems: Most offerwalls actively detect VPN usage. If they identify that you're using one, your offer won't credit—or worse, your account may be penalized.
What Happens If I Use a VPN?
If you attempt to complete offers while using a VPN, you risk:
Offers Not Crediting: The tracking system will likely fail, meaning you won't receive credits for your completed work.
Credits Being Revoked: If credits were awarded before VPN usage was detected, they may be removed from your account.
Account Flagged or Banned: Repeated VPN usage can result in your account being flagged for suspicious activity or permanently banned from EarnLab.
Offerwall Bans: Individual offerwall providers may also ban you from their platform, limiting your earning opportunities even further.
What About Privacy?
We understand that some users rely on VPNs for privacy reasons. However, when it comes to completing offers, the tracking systems require your real location to function properly. If you're concerned about privacy, here are some things to keep in mind:
- EarnLab and our offerwall providers only use your location data for offer targeting and verification purposes.
- You can use a VPN for general browsing, but make sure to disable it before accessing offerwalls or completing offers.
The Bottom Line
To protect your account and ensure you receive credit for your hard work, always complete offers without a VPN or proxy enabled. It's not worth risking your earnings or your account.
