You can adjust your mining speed in the left bottom corner of CryptoTab Browser window for best results.

Mining is blocked, what can I do?

In case you see a warning that mining is blocked, is means your account is terminated. This can happen if CryptoTab Browser terms of use are violated in any manner and your account will not be recovered, unfortunately.

Can I mine cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin?

In fact, CryptoTab software mines Monero (XMR) and converts Monero to Bitcoin according to current exchange rate. That's why your balance is displayed in BTC.

At the moment, this is the only cryptocurrency we offer as it’s the most popular one, but we keep working on new alternatives for you and will update you as soon as new coins are available for mining with CryptoTab Browser.

What kind of resources CryptoTab Browser uses to mine Bitcoins?

CryptoTab Browser is designed to use only the unused resources of your computer. This way it can run without interfering with your normal computer usage.

I've been mining for 10 minutes, but the stats won't update!

At this time we are not able to display real-time data, so the stats are updated several times an hour. Please be patient and wait a while until numbers are updated and you will see your mining results.

How can I make mining work non-stop?

With CryptoTab Browser running, you will be mining Bitcoins as long as your browser window is open and mining mode is on. At the same time, you can always increase your mining results if you participate in our referral program and invite as many friends as you can to install CryptoTab Browser. You will get additional commission from their mining activity and boost your earnings.

Should I always keep mining mode active?

Not necessarily, it only depends on how much you are willing to earn. The more friends you invite using your personal referral link, the more Bitcoins you get.

In addition, if you are interested to boost your earnings from mining, you can buy traffic to your personal referral link from global advertising platforms and traffic exchange networks like Google Adwords, Yahoo, Adcash, PropellerAds, Adsterra and many others. This will help you maximize your payouts significantly.

Payment information

Do you really send Bitcoins to your customers?

No doubts. We do make payments and we are transparent on this. All transfers of funds are confirmed in Bitcoin’s blockchain transaction database and available to check. You can find it in our payment journal. Let’s grow and make money together!

Why you pay in Bitcoins?

Bitcoin, first released as open-source software in 2009, is generally considered the first decentralized cryptocurrency. Since then, over 4,000 altcoin (alternative coin) variants of Bitcoin have been created.

It continues to be the most valuable and leading cryptocurrency at present. That is why we pay you in Bitcoins.

Can I get paid in Bitcoins only or any other cryptocurrencies?

As of now, we can only pay you in Bitcoins and in order to do so, you will need a Bitcoin wallet. A Bitcoin wallet is a piece of software that contains the “keys” and the address that allows you to send and receive bitcoins.

In addition, if you want to convert Bitcoins to any other cryptocurrency you like, you can create a wallet in any trading platform that supports Bitcoins like Bittrex (https://bittrex.com), a global leading blockchain trading platform, accept your Bitcoins to your trading platform wallet and exchange Bitcoin to other cryptocurrency.

How to create a Bitcoin wallet?

Please always remember to use reliable services only when it comes to transactions. There are several well proven providers like Blockchain you can use to create a Bitcoin wallet. We recommend you use the blockchain wallet due to its ease of use, simplicity and popularity.

Please go to https://www.blockchain.com/wallet#/signup and press “Create Wallet”.

You will be asked for an email address that will be used to verify your identity each time you try to open your wallet (optional) and a password. It’s important to use a password as strong as you can think of with more than 10 characters, low and uppercase letters, numbers and symbols.

When finished, you will be asked to write and store a phrase that will be used to get access to your wallet if you forget your password. This is important because there is no way to recover it if you lose your password.

Once created and verified through the confirmation email, you are set to open it and start operating with bitcoins. To do it you have to introduce the identifier included in the mail and the password.

How can I withdraw Bitcoins?

To withdraw your Bitcoins, you will be asked to login with one of your social network accounts. This is requested for security reasons to protect your access and make it possible to recover your ID, if needed.

Then, please go to CryptoTab Browser menu (icon in the form of three horizontal lines) and choose Withdraw BTC. Enter your Bitcoin wallet address that you would like your Bitcoins to go to and the amount you want to withdraw.

When can I request a withdrawal?

You need to earn at least 0.00001 BTC which is our minimum amount for withdrawing. It won't take long and you can probably reach this amount right on the first day! And it will take even less time if you invite friends to your mining network.

How long it will take to process my requested payment?

We are currently processing payments twice a day in a manual mode. Due to the increasing number of payments, we are going to switch to automatic payment mode soon. You can find the history of recent payments in the journal

How do I boost my bitcoin earnings?

The best way to earn more Bitcoins is to invite as many friends as possible with your personal referral link and motivate them to lead others. The more referrals you get, the more money you can make as our referral network includes up to 10 levels. Please find more details on how exactly our referral program works further down in this FAQ or get more info at the following link: https://cryptobrowser.site/boost.

I have lost my earnings and referrals, what should I do?

It seems you have reinstalled your computer or switched to new operating system.

If you have previously logged in to CryptoTab Browser with one of your social network accounts, then you will be able to login on any other computer and all the data, including the amount of Bitcoins mined and referrals, will be saved.

In case you have not previously authorized your access with your social network account, your data will not be restored, unfortunately.

Can I top up the balance in my CryptoTab account?

No, you can't add funds to your balance from sources outside the CryptoTab system.

Referral program

What is referral marketing?

Referral marketing is a method of promoting products or services to new customers through referrals, usually word of mouth. Such referrals often happen spontaneously.

Referral marketing is a process to encourage and significantly increase referrals from word of mouth, perhaps the oldest and most trusted marketing strategy. This can be accomplished by encouraging and rewarding customers, and a wide variety of other contacts, to recommend products and services from consumer and B2B brands, both online and offline.

Online referral marketing is the internet-based, or Software as a Service (SaaS) approach, to traditional referral marketing. By tracking customer behavior online through the use of web browser cookies and similar technology, online referral marketing can potentially increase brand awareness, referrals and, ultimately, revenue. Many platforms allow organizations to see their referral marketing return on investment (ROI), and to optimize their campaigns to improve results. Many of the newest systems provide users with the same experience whether they are on a desktop or mobile device. Offline referral marketers sometimes use trackable business cards. Trackable business cards typically contain QR codes linking them to online content for sale while providing a way to track that sale back to the person whose card was scanned.
