If I had to take a guess, I would say advertisers have to do this to get hits from these richer areas. Let's say the advertiser wants too advertise

expensive items.... It would be of little worth for a advertiser to advertise his banner in a 3rd world country, where the majority of the people are poor.

The 200 Satoshi in 3rd world countries are also valued the same as the 2000 Satoshi in the 1st world country, due to the exchange rate between these

countries currencies. Both of these users get effectively the same value from the two different locations.

living in england/america/australia.. NO faucets pay 15625sats every 30 seconds(equivalent to a fiat converted minimum wage per 30 seconds).. at most its 2000 but on average it is 250

in third world countries at most 1000 but average 100.. which is still not enough to be the equivalent to the lowest minimum wage of them all.. (bangledesh).

so never assume that you can make a minimum wage income from raiding faucets.. not matter how quickly you can raid them to average better than 1 hit per 30 seconds.

its just not viable.

I supose it depends on advertisers rates, if they pay more for users from some countries rates on faucet could be better for this countries. I don't want to think this as a racist system, its more like economic system. I don't like it, but if they don't do this difference i supose that faucet payments will be lower for all.

I also already noticed the Difference of the Claim when logging in from another location.
Seemed kinda random to me.

I can see why it would be irritating for a user, I can also see why advertisers would do it. If I was the OP I'd be signing up for a sig campaign. Way more money and there's not a sniff of discrimination anywhere.

Define racist. I went to the faucet mentioned in the OP but I do not see any racist content in the website mentioned.
The reward might be less for your friends because they might be from the third world countries and most of the ad network pay less for impressions/click/etc from the third world countries. That is why the reward might be less for most of the user from the third world countries.

That's not about being racist. That's not just in the Philippines. The wealthier the country from which you connect the more satoshis you will have.
And also I noticed that I got higher amounts if I connected from my smartphone than my computer. Like right now, I haven't claimed for a bit more than 6 hours and if I connect from my computer it shows 171 satoshis but if I connect from my phone then I can claim 581 satoshis.

That's an interesting fact. I'll do a test. I hope that it will work for me too. Maybe this is because your smartphone has a better location detection and it detect that you come from a big city.

Yeah I figured the same thing out too, probably they consider that developing countries earn less and thus get us paid less, or probably they aren't earning as much from their CAPTCHA's and ads from developing countries, hence the payout could have been less.

Wow i don't know about this, because the last time i use faucets it's still normal reward, not like that. But i agree with Wapinter. It's about ads from your region.

Is this really a thing? I thought everyone gets the same rewards at the faucets regardless of what country they are connecting from.

hello
so i m in Philippines sins a couple of days
and i would teach my friend to do some faucets but it s worthless
because 1st problem connection is so slow , that you need to much time to make a claim

and if that is not enough  some website looks racist
when i leave my place   moonbitcoin if i remember was more than 200sat /5min
and here is Philippines  it s 15 sat /5 min  ??  Huh  Roll Eyes seriously ?

same for bitcoin zebra  if i remember it was 500 - 1000 -3000
here it is 10 - 200 - 3000    10sat ? is this a sort of joke?

bitcoinker  100sat  when i leave my place 3 days ago it was 800 i think

can someone check how much he get is his place ?

all this website belong to the same owner






thanks for bringing this up , i thought it was equal pay who ever used it.is this how its suppose to work? wonder what the owners explanation is? and i also wonder how many more countrys are affected by it.
Poor countries should refer to the third developing countries! It is set by the faucet script meant to maximize the faucet owners' and advertisers' interest. But it is not fair for the users.

Traffic from countries as the Philippines is considered to be low quality and thus not worth much which might be the reason for the lower payouts for you. (correct me if I'm wrong)

It is not racism it is business.Even if you were faucet owner,you would do the same.Faucet depends on ads income to run.Ads network pay more for some regions visitors so do faucets

Why is it racist?
The problem is that the faucet gets lower rates from banner advertising for people from various countries like Phillipines. Faucets get the highest rates from banner advertisers for visitors from industrial countries like USA, European countries,... Therefore they need to adapt the claim amount depending on the country in order to stay profitable.

It doesn't matter what the site is related to. It could be Bitcoin, USD, Rupees, and you'd still get a low pay if you're on a lower tier country. It's not because the site doesn't like you, it's because of the way ad networks are. They pay higher for higher converting leads, and those are usually in the top tier countries ie France, USA. Basically the richer countries. I've learnt to stop going on these sites as it is a big waste of time. Takes forever to get a single dollar, while you could be doing something much more constructive in that time for much more money.

its not the faucets who are to be blamed, its the ad networks they use, ad networks pay less for poorer countries like yours so faucets can only give as much as they get so they dont lose money

Indeed. The adds that are displayed are getting smarter and smarter, which means that in the Phillipenes they serve less expensive adds, which leads you to earn less.

One way to get around this is to run a proxy or a vpn from a country in Europe or United states. That way, higher earning adds are shown and you earn more.

ok i understand but it s not fair
