I looked into Everve, a site that pays you for simple social media tasks like following pages and liking posts. It does pay, but very little, and the way you earn has ethical issues. Below is what I found, and which sites I recommend instead.
Not a good way to earn: low pay, and it sells fake engagement
Thousands of tiny social media tasks to reach $7, high cashout fees, and it can get your Instagram account banned.

The short answer
Everve really pays you for simple social media tasks, but it is not a good site to join. You earn less than a dime per task, so you have to complete thousands of tasks to reach the $7 threshold, and then it charges high fees when you cash out.
It is also an unethical way of earning, in my opinion: you help other people build a fake following. And the Instagram tasks can get your Instagram account banned.
- A simple way to earn
- A low $7 payout threshold
- Available globally, with the same tasks wherever you live
- Support tickets you can track on the site
- Very low rewards and limited earning opportunities
- High cashout fees: 5% to 7%
- Fake engagement can potentially hurt other people
- Can get your Instagram account banned
- No mobile app, and you can only sign in with Google

Screenshots from my test
Everve pays very little and sells fake engagement. These sites pay you better for your time.

Is Everve legit and safe?
Everve really pays you for the tasks. But I do not recommend it. Here is why.
- It sells fake engagement
Everve’s whole system is based on getting paid to increase the followers and interactions of social media accounts. You earn by helping other people fake their accounts, and you have no idea what this will be used for. Anyone can buy thousands of subscribers or likes and use them to convince people he or she is successful, and in some cases to scam others.
- Your Instagram account can get banned
I have received feedback from users that using Everve got their Instagram account banned. Instagram can now detect the Chrome plugin. Many users use a dummy account that has to look real, which is not the ethical thing to do either. Everve does not pay you for tasks done with “empty accounts”.
- Thousands of tasks to reach the threshold
Every task pays less than a dime. The $7 threshold is low, but you have to complete thousands of tasks before you can withdraw.
- High cashout fees
Payeer charges 5%, and Yandex.Money and QIWI charge 7%. The fee is deducted from your withdrawal, so do not expect to receive the full amount.
My takePersonally, I really dislike platforms that sell fake engagement. There is so much BS going on online today, and anyone can just buy thousands of subscribers or likes and try to convince people he or she is successful. While the tasks don’t really require a lot of effort, there are simply better options out there that have a better time-to-money ratio.
How you earn on Everve
There are 2 ways to earn. Social media tasks are the main one. Tap one to read more.
Social media tasksLess than a dime each
Click “Perform Tasks” in the dashboard to see all the tasks. You follow pages, like posts or share posts on Twitter, TikTok, YouTube and Vkontakte. You do these manually, which can be quite boring, especially since you won’t earn a lot.
Instagram tasks run automatically through Everve’s Chrome plugin, which mimics human gestures. I do not suggest you do them. Users report that Instagram can now detect the plugin and ban your account.
Referral program15% and 25%
Share your invite link. You earn 15% of your referrals’ advertising spend and 25% of their earnings. Only invite people who really want to use Everve to earn or to promote their own social media.
How much can you make?
Very little. You earn less than a dime for every task you complete. So even with a low $7 threshold, you have to complete thousands of tasks before you can withdraw, and then the fees take another 5% to 7%.
That is why I would say the earning potential of Everve is quite low. And the way you earn poses an ethical issue, in my opinion.
Payout methods, minimum and fees
| Method | Minimum | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| Payeer | $7 | 5% |
| Yandex.Money | $7 | 7% |
| QIWI | $7 | 7% |
Your earnings go to your Everve balance. You can withdraw them, or use them to set up a social media campaign of your own. The fee is deducted from the amount you withdraw.
