How online cheating sites make extra money

Many people who join cheating sites use them anonymously to find sex partners but could end up emailing their wife or girlfriend. You never know who's on the other side and if you send your photo first you could be caught! So when you are about to make your credit card payment to join, the website can ask you if you want to run a background check on the site and see if your girlfriend or wife is already there so that you can avoid bumping into her. If not, you set up an alert and the service will notify you if she joins in the future. Of course they will charge you a bit extra for it.

Telemarketers should pay for your time

What if consumers were paid-per-minute to take an unsolicited call by a telemarketer or from someone conducting a survey? The interested consumer will use a special-prefix number that gives consent to marketers to call. The money goes straight into the bank account or tops up phone credit.

Reduce rental car tank refill charges

Car rental companies charge ridiculously high prices per-gallon if the customer doesn't return the car full tank. Makes profit, sure, but also makes customers unhappy. Why not give small discounts (say $5-$10) to all customers who return the car full tank and charge a progressive flat fee (say $1-$10) on empty tanks based on the amount that has to be refilled? Customers on empty tanks will be penalized less than if they had to pay on a per-gallon basis and everyone gets the incentive to return the car full tank. The discount can also help lure more customers to the company.
