It has been over a decade since we first learned about Bitcoin. Now there are a lot of different cryptocurrencies being developed and we can earn them for free from these faucet programs.
Some of the faucets even have a small page dedicated to explain what Bitcoin or cryptocurrency is. That is in the hope that more people will be using these cryptocurrencies.
However, most of those pages are just templates that they get alongside the script for the website. For those who want to contribute and help to create content and explain further about the subject matter, there is a cryptocurrency faucet program where we can earn and also support the website for this purpose.
CRINF.net is one of the cryptocurrency faucet program where we can earn and have some empty pages to fill with content about any features related to cryptocurrency, primarily in German language. The faucet itself is very easy to earn from and we can probably expect more earning options there.
So, who is CRINF.net? Is CRINF.net legit or scam? How do we get paid and support their goal?
Those are probably just a few questions that came to mind after hearing about the program. Well, in this article, I’m going to share with you my CRINF.net Review based on my experience and what I can find from the internet.
Hope this helps. Is CRINF.net going to be the best cryptocurrency faucet program out there?

News and Update
May 2024. Republished the article again from 23 August 2023.
March 2024. A major update. They set a daily claim limit for the faucet to 10 claims only.
August 2023. Republished the article again from 4 May 2022.
January 2023. I think I finally know the issue with the cookie. The browser kept referring to the previous domain which include www before the domain. I can access the site again from the browser by removing it.
Also, now we can earn more different cryptocurrencies from their faucet. They also change the currency system so 1 satoshi is no longer the lowest amount. So, if we choose to claim BTC, the smaller amount will get accumulated eventually.
October 2022. I don’t know what happened but the browser that I regularly use cannot load the page for this. It says that the page keeps redirecting me to different page. It suggests clearing the cookie which I did but didn’t fix the issue. So, I have to switch to a different browser.
It seems they added a new feature now. Maybe a loyalty bonus for consecutive claims each day.
May 2022. Republished this article from the original date of 27 November 2020.
August 2021. They finally updated their platform mostly with the security feature. To withdraw, we will get a code via email that we need to copy and paste back to the account before they process it.
Another improvement is that we don’t need to enter the amount to withdraw manually if we want to withdraw the whole funds.
April 2021. There will be some upcoming security update to the platform.
February 2021. Another double reward event. For DASH happened on the last day of January 2021 and in February, we get a week for BCH.
January 2021. Bitcoin price keeps getting higher. CRINF.net decided to change their timer again for Bitcoin faucet into 8 minutes. They might change it again if things keep going this way.
This is my first time saw this but on the last day of the year, CRINF.net apparently runs a double reward event per claim. We will get twice as much per claim for the whole day.
December 2020. At this time, Bitcoin price has reached all time high surpassing $20.000 per coin. A lot of cryptocurrency faucets will have to adjust their reward.
CRINF.net also reduce the interval time for the Bitcoin faucet to 5 minutes like their other faucets. Bitcoin faucet reward is still the highest. However 1 satoshi per claim is already the lowest possible reward.
Also, CRINF.net already reduced the minimum amount to withdraw via FaucetPay.io.
About CRINF.net
Judging by looking at their homepage alone. at a glance, I thought this is going to be a big program with a lot of earning options. They are not and I couldn’t tell because they are primarily in German.
The owner of CRINF.net wants to create some kind of wiki page for cryptocurrency where anybody can learn anything related to the cryptocurrency. One of them is of course, the faucet where we can earn coins for free.
Most of these pages are currently empty. For those who are interested only in the earning features, they can skip to the next section of this article.
We can actually participate and help CRINF.net to create these content. I’m not sure what they are offering by helping them out but we can read more about that from the SUPPORT page or COOPERATION page, the second and the fifth menu from the bottom respectively.
If we want to contact them, the only way I can find is to send email to support@crinf.net. One of their first plan is probably to create content in German and then translate them into several different languages.
However, I think if the browser has built in translator, we can easily read them in English.
We can sign up via this link. Just enter email, nickname, password, gender and year of birth. I’m not sure the purpose of collecting those info though. We can still edit some of them later.
Cryptocurrency Faucet
The main feature on CRINF.net that we can use is cryptocurrency faucet. From a cryptocurrency faucet, anybody can earn money, usually in cryptocurrency for doing almost nothing.
The least we should do is just a click of a button. Nowadays, these kind of programs will require us to do more like click or view ads, go through links or couple of pages, and solve some captcha systems.
The amount of money we can earn from any cryptocurrency faucet program is actually not that much, considering how little and easy the effort is. However, we can repeat the process, claim the free money over and over again after waiting for a period of time.
Overtime, those small amount of money can eventually become something big. That is just from one program, and there are a lot of these programs out there.
In the case of CRINF.net, we can claim once every 5 minutes and we can earn several different cryptocurrencies, from Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dash and Bitcoin Cash.
How does it work?
After we sign in to our CRINF.net account, we can click on the FAUCET menu from the left navigation widget of the website. The previous picture displays the faucet page that we will see.
Even though the entire website is in German, the owner makes the earning features in English so a lot more people can use it. Of course, we can always just use the translator feature from the browser.
As we can see from this 1 faucet, we can choose which coins we want to get paid with.ย At the top of the page, we can choose from BTC, BCH, DASH or LTC that we can click on.
The chosen one will have a lighter blue color. To make sure we choose the right currency, we can look at the top or header part of the website, and check the currency from our balance.
Then we can scroll down a bit on that page and we will see the timer that says 00:00 left to claim, the reward for the chosen coins, a captcha from Google and the CLAIM button. To claim, we can simply solve the captcha and after we get the checkmark we can click on the CLAIM button.
The page will then reload and now the faucet page will start a timer. We can see that the balance at the top page will be updated. Before the timer is done, we will not see the CLAIM button again.
If we claim Bitcoin, the timer is set for 10 minutes and for other coins the timer is 5 minutes. There is no need to just claim one coin, we can claim the other coins next.
Just remember that this is still a single faucet, with different currency to choose from. The timer is based on the previous claim not the next one.
So, if we claim Bitcoin, we still need to wait for 10 minutes regardless of what we choose for next claim. At the bottom of that page, we can find more details about each coin like minimum withdrawal amount, reward and timer, as displayed by the second picture below.
That is actually it with the process how to claim free money on CRINF.net. We can keep claiming until we reach the minimum to withdraw or use their other earning feature PTC. More about this later.
Earning Rate and Comparisons
Based on the displayed conditions, the reward for each coins per claim are as follows.
Bitcoin: 3 satoshi of BTC
Bicoin Cash: 80 satoshi of BCH (1.76 satoshi of BTC)
Dash: 250 satoshi of DASH (1.46 satoshi of BTC)
Litcoin: 370 satoshi of LTC (1.54 satoshi of BTC)
The reward per claim remains the same so far from one claim to another.ย I think the owner can change it though.
The conversions above are based on the current rate between the two coins. That means, the actual amount in BTC can be different from time to time.
So, the rewards are more or less the same just 3 satoshi of Bitcoin per 10 minutes or about 1.5 satoshi per 5 minutes with other coins.
That means for an hour, we can get like 18 satoshi with 6 to 12 claims. If we choose the altcoins, the number of claims is probably less because of the time we miss and the more time we spend for each captcha. Which is why 3 is probably the right average rate.
For a day, we probably can get up to 432 satoshi. But that is if we claim like really every 10 minutes for the whole day, which is very unlikely. Sadly, there is no other feature to boost this earning rate.
The question is, is that a good earning rate? One way to find out is by making a simple comparisons to other similar programs or other cryptocurrency programs. Here are some that I have tried so far.
Freebitco.in, usually as my standard for good earning faucet, can give us like 15 to 20 satoshi at this time per claim every hour as the base reward which is what we will get most of the time. There is a chance to get higher rewards per claim from this. The rate is similar as CRINF.net, assuming we are willing to claim 6 times in an hour.
Cointiply.com, now the faucet can only give us 2 claims per day. For me right now about 20 coins a day and with 100 coins equals to $0.01 means $0.002 per day, or about 20 satoshi. With just 7 claims from CRINF.net a day, we can already get higher than this.
Free-Litecoin.com and their group, each as hourly faucet can give altcoins about 1,600 litoshi at this time or in Bitcoin around 7 satoshi as the base prize. With 3 claims in an hour from CRINF.net we already get higher than the base prize of this.
AllCoins.pw, a 6 minutes faucet as well, with 50 claim limit, right now can give like 4 satoshi per claim or 200 satoshi per day. We can get higher than this with CRINF.net if we are willing to claim every 10 minutes for 11 hours or so.
DailyFreeBits.com, also can give constant amount but only 3 satoshi every hour at this moment, which could go less thanks to dynamic price. That is the same reward per claim as CRINF.net but longer interval time between each claim.
BestChange.com, has a faucet feature, give around 15 satoshi in average per hour. Assuming the number is right, which, depends on luck, we can probably get more if we claim 6 times an hour from CRINF.net.
Bitcoinsfor.me, as a 5 minute faucet, at this time, I can only get like 4 free claims per day each with 5 satoshi. Based on their explanation about the internal currency, we should get even less than that. With just 7 claims from CRINF.net, we can get higher than this for a day.
3BTC.org can give like 0.11 DOGE as the base reward per claim per hour or in BTC about less than 3 satoshi as the base reward. That is the same reward per claim as CRINF.net but longer interval time between each claim.
DigiTask.ru, a 1 minute faucet and no limit can give like 0.15 DOGE (about 3 satoshi) per claim. That one claim is the same rate as CRINF.net but with shorter interval time.
Monitocoin.com, recently became a 3 day faucet, offers like 30 Bitcoin satoshi per claim or 10 satoshi per day. We just need 4 claims from CRINF.net and we already get higher than this for a day.
FireFaucet.win, an auto faucet, at this time, with maximum bonus, can give like between 6 to 8 Bitcoin satoshi per hour. With 3 or 4 claims an hour from CRINF.net, we can get higher than this.
QweroFaucet.com, an hour faucet, offers like just 1 Bitcoin satoshi per hour. We can get higher but it is almost impossible to achieve. CRINF.net and most of other faucet programs can offer higher than this.
BitsFree.net, a 30 minute faucet, offers like 10 satoshi per claim as the base prize. That one claim is slightly higher than 3 claims from CRINF.net for the same amount of time.
4Miner.me, another hourly faucet with multiple faucets, offers like 17 satoshi in average per hour from the Bitcoin faucet only. We can get about the same hourly rate from CRINF.net as this if we can claim like 6 times an hour.
FreeDGB.com, an hour faucet, can give us like 0.01 DGB or about 2 satoshi per claim. With just 1 Bitcoin faucet claim from CRINF.net, we can already get higher than this.
Lolifuu.com, a no timer faucet, with 50 claims per day will give about 300 LPONS per claim or about 3 satoshi per claim. The reward per claim is almost the same but we can do more in a day with CRINF.net.
ES Faucet, another lump sum claim faucet, which we can earn from 30 minutes, offering 13 different coins, can give like 2.2 satoshi after waiting for 30 minutes per faucet as the base prize only. If we claim every 10 minutes for half an hour from CRINF.net that will give the same rate as 8 faucets from this.
TopTap.website, an auto faucet, could offer like 1.8 satoshi per hour or 43.2 satoshi per day. We can get the same amount if we claim like 15 times a day from CRINF.net.
FreeBitcoin.io, an hourly faucet, can offer like 3 satoshi per hour or up to 72 per day. That one claim is the same reward as CRINF.net but longer interval time between each claim.
DogExpress.xyz and their group offers like 0.2 DOGE per claim per 10 minutes or about 4.5 satoshi. That one claim is 1.5 times higher than what we can get from CRINF.net.
Fautsy.com, a 5 minute faucet can offer like 5 satoshi per claim or 60 satoshi per hour. That one claim is almost twice as much as what we can get from CRINF.net and with shorter interval time between claims.
Yannik.biz, another lump sum faucet, offers like 4 satoshi after 10 minutes waiting, without the bonus. That one claim is slightly higher than CRINF.net.
AltHub.club, a 30 minute faucet, can give us like 5 ALTH per claim or about 0.28 DOGE or almost 6.4 satoshi per claims. With 2 or 3 claims from CRINF.net and we already get higher than this.
GetZEN.cash, a 20 hour faucet can give like 2 satoshi per claim as the base reward. With 1 claim from CRINF.net, we already get slightly higher than this.
FaucetCrypto.com, a 40 minute faucet, offers like 5 satoshi per claim. With 2 claims from CRINF.net we already get higher than this.
HerzCoin.tk, a 60 minute faucet, can give like 0.2 DOGE per claim or per day about 0.6 DOGE that is about 9 satoshi of Bitcoin. We can get the same amount if we claim like 3 times from CRINF.net.
DogeMate.com, an hour faucet and we can claim like 2.7 satoshi per claim as the minimum. With just 1 claim from CRINF.net, we already get higher than this.
CoinMoster.pw, a 15 minute faucet can offer like 2.5 satoshi per hour. With 1 claim from CRINF.net, we already get higher than this for an hour.
CoinBid.ro, and their group can offer like 5 satoshi per claim and we can claim once per 5 minutes per faucet. That one claim is almost twice as much as what we can get from CRINF.net.
StakeCube.net, a 24 hour faucet offers multiple coins. If we claim all of them, we can get about 30 satoshi per day. With about 10 claims from CRINF.net, we can get the same or higher than this for a day.
BonusBitcoin.co, a 15 minute faucet can offer like 1 satoshi per claim or up to 96 satoshi per day. With just 1 claim from CRINF.net, we already get almost 3 times as much as this.
PipeFlare.io, a daily faucet, where we can earn about 4 satoshi each day. With just 2 claims from CRINF.net, we already get higher than this for a day.
MoonBit.co.in, a lump sum faucet, can offer like 1 satoshi per 30 minutes as the base prize. With just 1 claim from CRINF.net, we can get 3 times as much as this.
FreeFaucet.io a once a day faucet can give us like 36 satoshi per day. With 12 claims from CRINF.net, we already get higher than this for a day.
TimeForBitco.in, a 5 minute lump sum faucet can give us like less than 3 satoshi per claim. In 10 minutes, this one is higher than 1 claim from CRINF.net.
This is just comparing strictly between the faucet earning rate. There are more things to consider like the claiming process or how easy to withdraw.
Some programs can offer other earning feature or bonus that could make them a better choice. On the other hand, some users might not be able to use those other earning feature and can only rely on faucet.
Comment and Suggestion
I think the best part of CRINF.net faucet is that there is very minimum for ad even the static one, no pop ups, very easy to use. However, I think they are being too generous and I’m not sure they can stay that way.
If they can, that will be great. Otherwise, I don’t mind if they add a couple more, especially if the ads are just the static ones. They said that they do get revenue for displaying affiliate programs of other similar faucet programs which they do display banners of those programs.
Based on the comparisons above, the earning rate from CRINF.net is nothing special, not the best but not the worst. If they can keep doing the minimum ads, I think this could be my favorite among faucets with shorter interval time.
What I also like is the idea of different interval timer for different coins. This give us a bit of flexibility. If we have time, we can collect the altcoins, otherwise, we go for the longer ones.
I kind of wish they can have longer ones, especially for Bitcoin, maybe set for 15 or 30 minutes. It seems that they only do this because of Bitcoin value is to high, not necessarily that they want to give some flexibility.
Maybe they don’t want to give 2 satoshi but 1 is a bit too low. Other programs may decide to offer small amounts, lower than 1 satoshi. If somehow Bitcoin price goes down, they may switch the Bitcoin faucet to 5 minutes, I think.
The only problem is there is no alternative for captcha system. The more we use and solve Google captcha, the more difficult to solve them later.
Especially during peak time and if we are also using other programs with Google’s captchaย as well. When that happens, we can only wait and try to claim again later or the next day.
With all of that in mind, we will probably have to collect at least two of the offered coins. If we have to choose from the 3 altcoins, we might want to consider the minimum to withdraw amount.
More about withdrawing later. Litecoin will require the least number of claims compared to all of these coins to withdraw with about 136 claims. Bitcoin Cash requires the most with 250 claims.
That number is still very low considering how easy the claiming process is and very short interval time. We can probably reach that amount within about a week or so.
The only problem is that there is no internal exchange feature for swapping coins. Which is why we might want to collect just 1 or 2 at a time.
Another nice thing is that there is a notification on the left widget of CRINF.net, when the faucet timer is done. If we can see a green dot right after the word faucet, then it is time to claim again.
For now, it may not be useful much because it is not like we will be spending time on other page currently. It will be useful if they can include some sound alarm to notify us.
Sadly, that is all of it that I can say about faucet from CRINF.net. Sadly there is no way to boost or increase the reward like leveling system, daily bonus, or anything. But then with minimum ads we have to deal with, this is probably better.
Also, this is not the only earning feature that we can use on CRINF.net. More about this next.
PTC (Paid to Click)
The other earning feature we can use on CRINF.net is the PTC or paid to click. This is also similar to faucet where we can earn or get paid by clicking on ads. The difference is that the advertiser is usually another member of CRINF.net
CRINF.net only become the host. Whether there are available ads to earn from are based on whether the other member is willing to advertise here.
We can also become the advertiser to promote other online program and pay. Some of the payment will then become the reward for the other member who view or click on our ads.
To access this feature, we can click on the PTC menu from the left side navigation widget on CRINF.net. The next picture is what we will see from that menu.
How to Earn
As we can see from the picture above, there will be two links. One for the advertiser who wants to promote or advertise and the other is the Earner. If we want to earn, we can click on the second menu.
The next picture displays this Earner section, If we scroll down a bit on that page we can see several columns of ads as we can see from the second picture below. We can keep scrolling down and the page will load all of the available ads.
Each of these ads will display the title, the reward and currency, the advertising type, some description and finally the VIEW button. If the advertiser use the ad type with timer, they will also tell us how long do we need to view the ads.
To earn, we just need to click that VIEW button.
It will open a new browser tab and load the page of the ads. The current one will instead display the result as we can see from the third picture below.
Because there is an advertising type where there will be no timer or how long we have to view the ads, from my example here, I immediately got the reward. For ads with timer, at the end of the timer, we will need to solve captcha from Google before we get paid.
The reward is 0.00000010 LTC and advertiser can choose which cryptocurrency they want to share as the reward.
So, with different ads, we can probably earn different coins from the 4 accepted coins on CRINF.net. After the result page as depicted from the third picture below, we can click on the CONTINUE button to return to the PTC earner page.
At the top right corner of this earner page, we can see the number of available ads for each of these cryptocurrencies. Right before the list of ads, we can see that there are 3 filtering options if we just want to earn from specific type of ads.
The first filter is about the AD TYPE. We can either view all of the ads, or choose between, no timer ads, with timer on new window or framed windows.
The second filter is the currency type. This can be useful for those who just want to earn specific coins. Actually, the color of the ads, represents the currency logo color like blue for DASH, green for BCH and grey for LTC.
Then, the last filter is the Category. The available categories are ADMIN, FAUCETS, TOP SELECTION AND CURRENCIES. We can actually choose several of them, not just one like the other 2 filters.
If there are ads available, we can see a notification from the left navigation widget. The PTC menu will have a green dot right next to it to indicate the available ads.
If somehow we want to revisit the previous ads, we can fine the link by accessing the VIEWED PTC ADS page at the top of this earner section.
Also, depending on the advertising credits that the advertiser put to their campaign, we may view the ads again after a period of time. The advertiser can also set when we can view them again, from 1 minute, up to 24 hours.
Learn about how to advertise might help us understand how this works.
How to Advertise
To advertise, we need to click on the other menu from the PTC main page of CRINF.net. The next picture is what we will see from that page.
That is the form to create the ads. We can start by entering the URL, some HEADLINES and DESCRIPTIONS of our ads.
Then, as displayed by the second picture below, we can choose the setting for the ads. Starts with the currency that we want to use to pay or share. Then, we can set the price per click and the number of clicks for the ads.
The AD STATUS field is to either activate the campaign and people can view and earn from or pause to save the money. I’m not sure what MY AD ONLY field means. After that the next field is to choose the advertising type,ย with timer or not, etc.
For option with timer, we can set them from 1 second up to 5 minutes. There will be no extra fees for different timer.
The next thing we need to fill is the optional targeting system. This is if we want to advertise something local for viewer in specific continents or countries down to the postal codes.
After that, there is an option to put them into different or several categories. There is even an option for subcategories which currently no subcategory is available.
The last part of the campaign setup can be seen from the third picture below. We can choose the LANGUAGE of the ads, then another targeting system for when the ads will be displayed in specific hours (GMT).
Finally, we can set the limit for daily clicks and when the viewer can view the same ads again. It can be set from 1 minute up to 24 hours.
We can also upload a related image to the ads. Check the earner page for an example.
The last part is where we need to click on the small box to acknowledge that we are agreeing to the terms of service. The term of service is about what kind of website they will allow or not to advertise.
The fourth picture below displays the restriction. If we break the rules, they will immediately take down the campaign with no refund. We can click on the CREATE button to proceed.
Once we have created our campaign, we can manage them by accessing the MANAGE PTC ADS. The link is at the top of this advertising page.
The REQUEST NEW is to add more POSTAL CODES and DEPARTMENTS for the geographic targeting system.
The minimum for price per click has to be 10 satoshi of the given altcoins but 1 satoshi for Bitcoin. CRINF.net will then charge the fee based on whether we choose to advertise our ad only or let them display other ads alongside ours.
If we set to display only our ads, they will charge 50% fee. It is free if we allow them to include other ads from them.
They will also charge the fee differently based on the ad type we choose. For the 1st type, the one without the timer, they will charge 25% for each click. They will charge 100% for the 2nd and 3rd type.
So, even if we choose to set the minimum price of 10 satoshi, activate ONLY MY ADS option, and with the 1st type, the cost will be 17 satoshi for each click.
Then, for each targeting system we activate and how we put the ads into category and subcategory, they will also charge additional fees. Here are the details.
Continent: 5%
Country: 15%
Department: 20%
Postal Code: 30%
Category: 5%
Subcategory: 1%
Language: 5%
As we can see from the next picture, there will be some calculator each time we input the setting.
We can start advertising by either making a deposit or use the earning we get on CRINF.net like the faucet or the PTC itself.
Comment and Suggestion
First of all, I haven’t tried the advertising part so I can’t say for sure. Let me know if I am wrong for what I’m about to say.
We can set the price as low as we want and that will be the reward for the viewer. The extra percentage will become the fee for CRINF.net.
The higher the price, the higher the fee will get. It is nice that we can start advertising with very low number of clicks or rather cheap. Other PTC programs might require a minimum like 100 or even 10,000 views.
However, I think it is very uncommon practice compared to other PTC program. Usually, the timer is what increase the quality of how the ads are being displayed. The longer the timer, the higher the reward. That is not the case here with CRINF.net.
That means we can also try to advertise using the timer option, set them with 5 minutes or the longest timer but reward the viewer very low. The viewer may not get the reward because they are being impatient and close the ads early.
At the same time, the advertiser will still get exposure for their ads without losing the credits. The one without the timer at all is probably the worst option because viewers don’t even have to view at all and get paid.
The timer will force people to check the new tab or window, or the timer will stop counting down. In addition, the viewers will also need to solve a captcha after the timer before they can get the reward.
The targeting system is nice and that for each feature we activate, we have to pay extra fees. I think that is very reasonable.
The problem is that I don’t really think that these kind of feature is needed for this kind of program. Here we can target the audience down to their postal code.
This feature is probably a must have for a rather general advertising website like Google Ads. But those are ad network which they will display the ads on different multiple platform.
Here, it is a PTC, where the user will consider CRINF.net as earning program. They will not actually care for the ads. Some will but mostly don’t.
I think there is something missing here. If they really want to include those features, they must allow an option so the ads can only be viewed by the corresponding target. What they do is actually, every member can view them and the targeting system is just to filter the other out.
We also have to remember that CRINF.net is a cryptocurrency related platform. The background of those who use this program is very limited. If the viewer is here just to earn, then, they will not care.
As long as they can earn from any ads, they will just view all of them regardless of the advertiser’s intention. So, unless they fix it, I don’t recommend any advertiser to use the targeting system at all.
The viewer may not even care to setup their location on their profile. This should be a requirement after signing up if CRINF.net wants advertiser to use this feature.
As for earner, those ads with no timer at all is an opportunity to earn. We might want to avoid the other ad type, especially those with longer timer.
Advertiser must use a timer option. I guess they can use it for promoting their video on their YouTube channel. This will force people to view up to 5 minutes. I’m not sure if it is legal based on Google or YouTube’s rule though.
What kind of programs can we promote here? The best suggestion would be something related to cryptocurrency, faucet or online earning programs, preferably in English.
This site is primarily in German. I thought at first the targeting system is ready at least down to some German Postal Code so this can help their local business. They are not.
Referral / Affiliate Program
As I said earlier that the amount of money we can earn from CRINF.net or any faucet program is actually very low, They are just pennies and some people think they are not worth the time.
However, by offering an affiliate or referral commission, any program has the chance on becoming a long term passive income source. We can still earn while we are asleep.
What we need to do to earn the commission is to invite other people to join the program and let those people use the service. In this case, the program is CRINF.net and the service is to earn money from their faucet.
As the referrer we will then get commission, a percentage based on our referral’s earning. It is true that means we will get even less. However, we can earn them passively, no need for us to do the claiming ourselves.
Also, that is just from one faucet claim from one referral. The more referrals we have and the more claims they do will increase the commission that we will get.
In theory, with unlimited number of referrals, we can have unlimited income source.
How does it work?
Like on any other online program offering an affiliate or referral commission, each of their member will get a unique link with their ID attached to it. It is called as ref link or referral link and this one below is mine for CRINF.net.

If anybody click on that link and join the program, they will become my referral. And if they use the service, claim from CRINF.net faucet, I will get commission 10% based on the referral’s earning.
We can find about the rate from the faucet page, for the Conditions section. That also means, the referral’s earning is just from the faucet but not the PTC or other future earning feature later.
I could be wrong about this and also that CRINF.net will have the opportunity to change it.
What we need to do is to share the link to anybody on any online platform that we regularly use. The platform can be our social media accounts, forums, group messengers for family or friends, emails, or even blog and website that we own.
Anywhere we can post or publish the link and the public can access the link will work. Even Google Docs can do.
We can find our own unique link on the DASHBOARD part of CRINF.net account by clicking the menu at the top middle part of the website. On that page, we have to scroll down a bit and after the withdrawal section there will be a GET REFERRAL LINK section,
The AFFILIATE menu on the left side of the page is not for this feature.
The previous picture displays what it looks like. There will be a copy button that we can use but unfortunately, there is no share button.
The other tool provided on CRINF.net is the referral statistic which we can also find on the Dashboard at the top part of the page. It will say REFERRALS TABLE with red font color as displayed by the next picture.
Other than that, there is no promotional banners or such. The link is the essential one though.
How to get (more) referrals?
Well, sharing the link is a must but how exactly? Sharing to the wrong people is like a salesman approaching stranger. People hate that.
If we try to share on our social media, people might get annoyed if they are not interested. Especially if we are spamming, sharing over and over again like multiple times within a day.
We could lose our followers, risking any network we have built. Maybe it’s better to have alternate account specifically just to share this kind of program.
We look for community or other users that we know are interested. Or only when they ask, then we can share with them the link.
A better way might be to share on forums. Not just any forum of course, but related to online money making program, bitcoin, or other cryptocurrencies.
The problem with using any free platform like this is that we are probably not the only one who promote the same program. We have to offer something more than just the referral link like anybody else.
Another thing is that these free platforms have rules that they can suddenly change about promotion and not to mention, shutting down their service entirely. We have to start over our campaign if they delete them.
A better way would be to have our own website. We can share anything not just one program but others with the same, similar or related topics.
Having a website is like having a shop in real life. People can always come back to and find out more programs to use.
Then we can use those free platforms, forum or social media accountsย just for promotion. A good way to get backlink or generate traffic.
Since it’s an online shop, it will stay open 24/7, no need to wait for us to wake up and can be accessed from everywhere around the world. The best part of having our own place or website is that any search engine like Google will do the promotion work non stop.
And they will show the website as a result to exactly people who are interested in it. They use the search engine to look for it and get the website we build as the result. No need to worry about being annoying salesman.
Those people will access the website, see what we have to offer. Maybe a review like this, other or similar program we use, sharing experience, opinion, views to let people know that we understand this kind of program.
If they are interested, they will become our referrals for any program we promote. Once we have enough referrals for CRINF.net or every programs we promote, we can have passive income even full time income.
That is exactly how people can build their business online. They own a website, fill the website with contents that can help promote a program, and let it work automatically.
If you are interested to know more about how to build a website and turn it into an online business, keep reading. I will share with you later about a training program that anybody can use.
In the meantime, let’s head back to CRINF.net for a little bit.
Comment and Suggestion
I did say that with affiliate or referral commission we can turn any program into a passive income source. Also, that we can even get unlimited income.
That is just the general and basic idea. In reality, that is not always the case. So, can CRINF.net become one?
Even if we do get a lot of referrals, it doesn’t mean all of them are going to generate a commission. They may not even do one faucet claim. Other programs say that only like 8% of them will be an active one. It can be lower for CRINF.net.
First, the commission, 10% regardless of the currency. It is not the best one as other program can offer up to 50%. Of course there are other that offers even lower like 5% or none at all.
The problem with this is about the Bitcoin. For the altcoins, the least amount is 80 satoshi of BCH and for that, we will get 8 satoshi as commission per referral’s claim.
Bitcoin, however, I’m not sure that we will get anything. The referral will get 3 satoshi per claim but 10% of that is 0.3 satoshi. At this point I don’t have any referral yet so I could be wrong, but most likely they will round it down and no commission for the referrer.
That means, we probably want to promote this as other than Bitcoin faucet. The solution from other programs would be to count the smaller amount lower than 1 satoshi. But that is not the case with CRINF.net.
A good referral program will always rely on a good main feature of the platform. There is no point on having as many referrals as we can if none of them are willing to use any of the services.
While the faucet as the main feature is good but usually people will like if there is other earning option so they don’t need to use multiple programs. They do have PTC but I don’t think we will get any commission from that.
At least, the referrals can keep coming back. Let’s just see if CRINF.net can add more feature in their platform.
The most important part would be the registration process that require using email address. Some other simple instant faucet programs only require to sign in with wallet address.
People can change the wallet address rather often and easily but not with email address. The point is, if they can change their ID, the next new account is probably not through our link. That means, we will be losing them as our referrals.
Even if they do, with the registration process, that is an indication that CRINF.net is keeping the data. Every referrals will be tied to the referrer forever.
Those simple instant programs don’t do that and probably the referral will stay as referral if they access the website each time through our link. With a proper registration process, as long as both the referrer and referral can keep coming back to the account with the same ID, the referral will keep generating commission for the referrer.
That is an important aspect for long term passive income. Which is why I consider CRINF.net is a good program for a passive income source.
There is no promotional banner which usually can be handy for those who wants to promote via paid advertising like PTC. Not here obviously but on other program.
I recommend creating our own banner so that will be unique and only ourselves can use them. That is if we still want to use some banners.
Some people say that those banners are just like another ads. The best way to share the link is still embedding referral link in a sentence or paragraph.
Make sure we copy the complete link when sharing. Missing just one character means losing an income source potential. The ID is very easy to remember, just a number at the end but always use the copy button.
With all of that in mind, I still think, potentially, CRINF.net is a good program for long term passive income. It is just that the platforms can use some improvements.
I would say, that for now, we should not focus on just promoting this program. Diversify with other better programs is always a good thing.
That is the good thing about referral feature. We don’t need to stick to just one program. Promote as many as we want and have multiple income sources.
Withdraw and Deposit
We already learned about how to earn from CRINF.net. The next question is how do we get paid or get the money out from there.
But before that, I also want to discuss about the deposit. We can make a deposit to CRINF.net and spend the funds for advertising.
To make a deposit, there is a menu at the left side navigation widget that says DEPOSIT. The next picture displays that page.
I’m not sure how it works but I really don’t recommend making any deposit until they fix something. Usually when we use cryptocurrency, they will not need to specify the amount. We can just send to the deposit address.
Of course, this will be different if they say about the minimum that if we send money less than the minimum, they will not credit our account. But it doesn’t seem like the case here.
I’m not sure if the page is working. Tried to click the ADD button and it keeps saying error. Maybe they are not ready.
At least, they have a plan to make it work. Just a note that it doesn’t seem they separate between the advertising funds or the main account balance. If that is the case, maybe we can use this platform later as wallet for the accepted coins.
There is a page that says SUPPORT and on that page there are several deposit wallet address for each of the accepted coins. Those are for donations, so, do not make a deposit there to fund the account.
Until then, we can just use them to earn and try to withdraw.
How to Withdraw
CRINF.net offers two ways to get paid. They will either send the money directly to our wallet address or via FaucetPay.io, a micro wallet service.
So far, I have only tried the second one. We can see that there is a minimum withdrawal amount, different for each coin and for each method. The details can be found on the faucet page, as follows.
BTC: 500 satoshi (FP), 50,000 satoshi (DW)
BCH: 20,000 satoshi (FP), 500,000 satoshi (DW)
DASH: 50,000 satoshi (FP), 500,000 satoshi (DW)
LTC: 50,000 satoshi (FP), 500,000 satoshi (DW)
With those minimum amount, if we only earn from faucet, here are the minimum number of claims to reach that for each coins. I recommend using the micro wallet service, especially for the Bitcoin.
BTC: 167 claims (FP), 16,667 claims (DW)
BCH: 250 claims (FP), 6,250 claims (DW)
DASH: 200 claims (FP), 2,000 claims (DW)
LTC: 136 claims (FP), 1,352 claims (DW)
To withdraw,ย we must first register our wallet address. The DASHBOARD page has the setting for this and to withdraw later. We can see this from the next few images.
As we can see from the first picture, they separate the wallet address for each coin and for each method. Make sure we enter the wallet address for each coin to the right field.
For FaucetPay.io, we first need to link the wallet address to our FaucetPay.io account. Read my FaucetPay.io review to learn more or use this link to create account.
For either payment methods, we still need a wallet address for each different coins.ย There are a lot of cryptocurrency wallet service out there and any of them will work.
For those who don’t have any, I recommend using the one from StakeCube.net. The reason is they also offer some daily interest or investment so that by sending the payment there, the money can grow itself.
Learn more from my StakeCube.net Review. Use this link to create account with StakeCube.net.
The problem is that StakeCube.net doesn’t accept Bitcoin Cash. For that, I can recommend using Crex24.com. It is an exchanger service.
Learn more from my Crex24.com Review. Use this link to create account with Crex24.com.
Alternatively we can use the deposit address for Bitcoin Cash from our FaucetPay.io account. However, don’t put that address on the FaucetPay.io address but instead the direct withdrawal section.
Once we are done setting up the wallet to withdraw on CRINF.net, we can click on the SAVE button, right below the field.
The withdraw page is on the DASHBOARD page as well below where we setup the wallet address. We can see that from the first picture above.
To withdraw, we choose which coin first, then, the payment method. The last is to enter the amount we want to withdraw. The number with the red font color is the minimum.
Once we are done, we can click the WITHDRAW button.ย The second picture above is the result that the page will say the request has been received and they will process the payment.
The last picture above is the payment proof on FaucetPay.io page. They will process the payment manually. There is no statement of how long but we can probably expect up to 24 hours, maybe longer for the directly to wallet option.
Conclusion
CRINF.net is a cryptocurrency faucet program primarily in German. The owner is trying to create a platform where anybody can not just earn cryptocurrency for free but also to learn more about the cryptocurrency itself.
There are a lot of pages for information regarding the world of cryptocurrency but currently most of them are empty. Their earning features, however is functional and in English so anybody can use them pretty easily.
CRINF.net offers 4 different coins, BTC, BCH, DASH or LTC in a single faucet. We can only claim once and wait to claim again the same or other coins.
The interval time is set for 5 minutes except for Bitcoin which is 10 minutes after the claim. This gives a bit flexibility even though that is probably not their intention.
The claiming process for each claim is rather easy, just solve 1 captcha but it is from Google and no alternative. There will be some ads but static and currently no pop ups.
The reward will be the same amount between each claim but different currency may offer higher for some. Compare to other similar programs with short interval time, the earning rate is not that bad but nothing special. It is just how easy it is to claim compare to others.
Sadly there is nothing else to boost the reward. Since they don’t have any internal exchanger feature, we should just focus collecting just one or two of them.
Luckily, they do use FaucetPay.io a micro wallet service. If we collect LTC, we need like less than 140 claims, the least among 4 coins and we can withdraw. They will not process the payment instantly and will take like a day.
The other earning option is the PTC which we can also advertise using our earning from faucet or make a deposit. One of the unique thing is that there is an option to view and earn from ads without any timer or captcha at all.
For earner, we should not miss that but for advertiser, maybe they should advertise using the other type. There is also a targeting system based on geographic location of the viewer. But it is not functioning very well at the moment.
CRINF.net does offer referral commission but only 10%, which is probably nothing if the referral claim Bitcoin. Potentially this is not a bad program for long term passive income, assuming they do improve the platform.
So, if you still consider this as an opportunity to earn more cryptocurrencies or turn it into a long term passive income source, you can start by creating account with CRINF.net via this link. It’s FREE.

Final Words
As mentioned before that what we can get from CRINF.net or any faucet program is actually very low. Usually, the key is to use the referral program, get a lot of referrals and let them do the work and we get the commission passively.
There is no need to rely on just referral program from CRINF.net. We can try and promote other referral programs as well. As many as we want.
In order to do that, it’s better to have our own website, promote the program until we can get enough referrals and they can generate income for us.ย This is not only limited to digital product but we can also promote physical product.
Share a link from a marketplace like Amazon, or directly from big brands like Apple, and if people buy something, we can earn some commission. It’s not limited to just tech product but any passion we have from food, travel, sports, movies.
That is how we can have an online business.
If you are interested to learn more about building a website and turn it into a business, even a passive income, there is a training program that you can try.
On this training, not only we can learn about how to, but we can actually set up the website, grow it until it can generate income. We can learn from a lot of experts who were once just like you and me, know almost nothing about online business.
This is an easy training program that even a guy without a college degree can use it. Within two years he started to have a full time income from his website and quit his regular job.
We can even ask the owner the help out directly. Try it. Join the program for FREE and try to reply their first message to you and see if they get back and help you out.
You can learn more about the training from my review here.
We grow the business and website by using affiliate programs just like CRINF.net. Here is my list of other affiliate programs that you can try.
I will keep updating the page and add more programs. So, stay tuned.
Well, that’s all I can share with you about the faucet program, CRINF.net Maybe I missed something and you have more question about it, or if you want to add your experience, view, opinion, don’t hesitate to use the comment section below.
Maybe you also have other experience with other similar programs with this, hopefully a better one, you can suggest something as well. I would love to help if I could and learn more about online program.
Hope my reviews can help. Thanks for reading.
