Honeygain Review (May 2022) – Tricks to boost your earnings
Ever heard of Honeygain where you can share your internet connection and make money?
I have used it for more than a year and this will be a complete review and hack on how you can boost your earnings with it.
But before we start with the article, let us clear out the most important question which is if Honeygain is legit.
Is Honeygain legit?
Honeygain is a completely crowdsourced residential proxy network that helps businesses and people to access content from the Internet which is censored in their country.
Currently, it has over a million users with 250,000 active ones. The website also gets 10Mil-15Mil visitors per month which is huge.
It was founded in 2018 and has been working since then. It has paid thousands of its users and has a 4.5 overall rating in Trustpilot with more than 6000 reviews.
I have worked here for over a year and have also received a payment from them. It is surely a legit website and can earn you a good passive income.
How does Honeygain work?
There is a lot of content that is censored and is not available in different countries. Now to access it, businesses use the Honeygain proxy network by paying rent on it.
You can be a proxy in the Residential Proxy Network and let the businesses access content for which Honeygain will pay you.
Now you must be having a big question on your mind, will it be safe to use Honeygain and provide access to others for using your network.
Is Honeygain Safe?
Honeygain uses only the internet connection and nothing else from your device. You can even stop the application with just a single click.
I have frequently checked if the Honeygain process is running in the background when it is closed and I have never found it. From my experience, it never opens anything without your consent.
It provides our internet connection only to verified clients and also monitors their entire activities throughout the process.
It might affect your public IP reputation but that doesn’t really matter as our public IP changes every few days over DHCP. Hence, it’s absolutely safe to use Honeygain.
Getting Started With Honeygain
First head over to their website and register using your email address. After that verify your email to complete the signup process.
Once you are done with registration, download the Honeygain App. It is available for almost all platforms.
If you are a mobile user and don’t find Honeygain listed in the app store, then do download it from their official website.
Once you complete downloading, you can start the application to make money for you in the background.
In mobile devices, you can even set the maximum amount of data that you want the application to use in a month. This is to make sure you are not losing out on a lot of data.
Now let’s see the different ways to make money and also our secret method which you can use to boost your earnings.
Honeygain Earning Modes
This is a fairly new section that has been recently added. There are two earning modes currently present in the platform. Let us discuss both of them.
1. Honeygain Wallet Mode
This is the default earning mode in the platform. Whatever you earn stays in your default wallet and you get multiple payout options which we will discuss later in the guide.
If you want easy payout options, then I will suggest you use this one.
2. JumpTask Wallet Mode
Recently, Honeygain partnered with JumpTask (JMPT) crypto to provide extra bonus. If you earn using this mode you will make an extra 50% bonus on all your earnings.
You can change your mode just by a single click in your dashboard which is shown below.
If you want a boost in your earnings, then this mode is surely going to help you.
Different Ways To Make Money With Honeygain
There are three usual ways to make money on the platform and one more secret way which we will reveal later in this guide.
Data Gathering
This is the basic way how you make money here. You just need to start the application and it will gather as much data as possible.
There are various factors that might affect the amount of money that you make through gathering data which are:
-> Your Location
The amount of data gathered will highly depend upon your location. If there are more businesses near your location using the Honeygain network, then you will make more money.
If you are from a Tier-1 country like the USA, UK, Canada, etc then you are going to make the most amount out of it.
-> Network Speed
The higher the network speed you have, the better it is. Honeygain has mentioned that your network speed will actually affect the amount of money that you will make.
Tip: You can use up to 10 devices in one Honeygain account to boost your earnings.
In the end, it all depends upon how much data you have shared, the more data you share the more money you make.
Honeygain Content Delivery
This is a new feature where you will share your internet connection for bandwidth-intensive content such as videos, photos, etc.
Unlike the Data Gathering method where the earning depends upon the data you share, In content delivery, you will be paid for the total time that you share your internet connection.
The earning rate is quite high than the normal Data Gathering method. You are going to make 6 Credits per hour. We will learn more about credits in the coming section.
Content Delivery is not available everywhere. You can check out if it is available in your country in their documentation.
Let us see a few important questions that are frequently asked about Content Delivery.
Is Honeygain Content Delivery available in mobile?
No currently it only allows Content Delivery on PC as most mobile devices run with a limited data plan.
Content delivery showing “In Queue” constantly
Honeygain only allows a limited number of devices to be connected to the Content Delivery network at the same time. Hence if there are no spots available, you will be added to a Queue.
Referrals
Honeygain provides a great referral deal where anyone who joins with your referral link gets a $5 joining bonus and you get a chance to make 10% of whatever they earn.
That’s a win-win situation for both you and your referral. If you are finding this article helpful, you can join through my link below.

The Lucky Pot will give you free credits and you can open it once a day. This will boost your earnings for sure.
If you are an active user, then you will get a notification shown below whenever you open the Honeygain dashboard.

How does Honeygain Pay?
Honeygain calculates everything you earn on the basis of a local currency called credits. 1000 credits equal to $1.
In the default Wallet mode, there are three different payout methods which are Paypal, BTC, JMPT (new crypto). You can choose any method out of it.
In the JMPT wallet mode, anything you earn is directly stored on your JMPT wallet which you can withdraw using some exchange.
Honeygain Payment Proof
Paypal charges a 15% fee on payments. Hence I received almost $2.5 less than the actual amount.
