If the site has a paypal option you can choose that.

You just go in and click on "Change Prize" and then change to the Paypal reward.

No, I meant if I can get cash instead of the prize I want. For example, I order the platinum bundle from 3604free.com . Instead of Trainn ordering it, can they give me cash instead?

they answered that question.

twice.

you go into the prizes section and switch your prize. if you already completed the site and placed your order, you're stuck with the bundle.

Okay, so the bundle is worth $579, right? If I don't want the bundle, can Trainn give me $579 instead of the bundle? That's what I'm trying to ask.

no, but perhaps it would help if you understood how it worked a bit. check it out.

each prize has a specific amount of referrals that you need to find in order to cash out. i'm not sure how many your site requires, but that doesn't matter.

when you take the value of your prize and divide it by the amount of referrals you need to cash out, you get the value of each referral. usually it's around $50/ref for a Trainn site.

now that being said, obviously $579 is not divisible by $50, so they round.

keeping this in mind, if you want a cash prize for an equivalent number of refs, you need to multiply the amount of refs your $579 package requires, by $50, (or whatever the value per ref is) and then select that cash option.

in this situation, assuming that it is indeed $50/ref, your $579 package must require around 12 refs or so. If you want that much cash, you would need to select the $599 option which should also require the 12 refs. 12 x $50 is $600. $599 is given because $600 puts you in a different tax scenario.

So in a nutshell, NO you can not get $579, you have to do the math and find the most comparable cash prize for the amount of refs you wish to find.

If the site has a paypal option, you can choose that, but the only option I see on that site is $415. You can't just choose cash to replace any of the prize options they have on the site, if that's what you're asking. You can only choose to get $415. And if you want a check instead of paypal, they won't do that either.
