[edit] Note sharing
Any student who signs up to the website is granted full access to view all of the shared notes from any college or university in the United States.[3] Members may also participate in uploading their own documents where they can receive incentives based upon the number of documents they submit. Upon submission notes are viewed and determined acceptable based on content, length, and accuracy.[4]
[edit] Rewards
Once it is determined that the uploaded notes are acceptable then users will be rewarded with a US$10 Amazon.com giftcard for every 10 current semester notes that they post.[5] According to Isleptthroughclass.com the earning potential for its members is unlimited. Meaning that as long as members are submitting acceptable notes then they can be rewarded an infinite amount of times.
