Do you like free stuff? We do too! We here at SkipIt love giving away free skips. Right now, there are 3 simple ways to earn free skips with SkipIt:
- Sign up –all new users who sign up for SkipIt will receive 5 free skips to get started. You receive 1 free skip when you sign up and 4 more skips after you verify your account via a verification email that we send to you. You do not need to verify your account though if you sign up through Facebook, Twitter or Google. You will be awarded your 5 free skips immediately.
- Fund your account – you are awarded one free skip for every dollar you put in your secure digital wallet starting at $10. So, if you put $15 dollars in your account, you’ll get 15 free skips. If you only add $7 to your account, you won’t get any free skips, though, so consider starting with $10 to get those free skips!
- Refer a friend – once you have a SkipIt account, you can earn lots of free skips by referring your friends and family to SkipIt. Once you sign up for an account we’ll give you a unique URL that you can share with everyone. If they sign up for SkipIt and fund their account, you’ll get 5 free skips. The more people you get to sign up and fund their accounts, the more free skips you’ll get.
Very soon, we’re going to have an offer wall on our website that allows you to download a coupon, take a survey or interact with various brands to earn lots of free skips. You may never have to pay to skip ads again!
But for now, try these ways above. If you have any questions regarding your free skips or account setup, contact help@skipit.com or visit the SkipIt Help Center.
SkipIt…SkipIt good!
A big welcome from the SkipIt team! After months and months of hard work, we are happy to announce that SkipIt is officially live.
You may be wondering why SpotXchange, one of the world’s largest global marketplaces for video ad inventory, designed a platform that allows consumers to skip online video ads. Trust us, we get that question a lot!
The truth is, with abandonment rates averaging 16-37%, we decided it was time to design a solution that gives consumers the ability to skip online video ads while still benefiting the advertisers and publishers involved. It’s a win-win situation!
Founder and CEO of SkipIt and SpotXchange, Mike Shehan, describes how he came up with the idea, the market’s initial reaction, and ultimately how SkipIt ended up where it is today
Read Mike’s open letter: “Why is SpotXchange Launching Skipit?”
After months of hard work and preparation, we’re beyond excited to launch SkipIt.
SkipIt is a new service that lets you control your online video ad experience by having the option to skip video ads when you want to.
We know some of you get frustrated and bail on video ads if they interrupt you before you get to your content online. In fact, people can click away or “abandon” video ads up to 40% of the time! Those folks never got to the content they wanted to watch, and that doesn’t make for a good online experience.
With consumers sending such a strong signal to the market, we decided to do something about it. That’s where SkipIt comes in.
Signing up for SkipIt is free, simple, and comes with 5 free skips. You can either sign up at www.SkipIt.com or when you see the SkipIt invites. Then you get 5 free skips to start using anywhere you see the next SkipIt invite.
Talking about free – you can earn tons of free skips. For each friend you refer that also signs up and funds their account with $10, you earn another 5 free skips. Plus, for every dollar you put in your SkipIt account, you earn 1 free skip. So $10 = 10 free skips. Then you can start skipping video ads to your heart’s content (SkipIt always uses your free skips first). Skip on!
