Questions, answered straight

Is this Honeygain?

No. The Passive Bee is an independent guide. Our buttons are referral links to Honeygain. You get $3 for joining, and we may earn a referral bonus.

Is it safe?

Honeygain says the app has no access to your personal files or browsing history. Businesses use the shared bandwidth for things like ad verification, price monitoring and market research.

How much will I earn?

About $0.10 per GB shared. Honeygain's average payout is $27. Most people earn a few dollars a month. It depends on country, uptime and demand.

Will it drain my battery or data?

It only uses spare bandwidth, so it is best on a PC or a phone on Wi-Fi with unlimited internet. Content Delivery mode, where available, can use noticeably more data.

How do I get paid?

PayPal from $20 (a $2.02 fee per payout). Or use JumpTask mode for gift cards from $0.50.

Can I quit anytime?

Yes. It is free, there is nothing to cancel, and you can uninstall whenever you like.
