Opening globally in August 2026, Bixberry turns people’s idle internet into rewards — helping AI access current, real-world information, with 5,000+ gift cards to choose from, including Amazon and Steam.
VILNIUS, Lithuania, Sept. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bixberry has announced the global launch of its network that helps AI systems retrieve fresh, real-world information from the live web. In return for supporting the ecosystem, users earn rewards by sharing their device’s idle internet connection.
AI models stop learning the day they are built. To answer questions about today’s prices, news, or a local detail specific to a user’s city, they have to check the live internet in real time. Much of that web responds to what looks like a real person on a normal home connection rather than a data center, which is why real people’s connections have become part of how AI stays current. Bixberry is designed to support that process. Users can download and run the Bixberry application in the background of their phones, tablets, and laptops, using minimal resources so everyday use isn’t affected.
“Most people don’t realize that AI’s knowledge freezes the moment it’s built. The world doesn’t freeze with it. So something has to keep it connected to what’s actually happening right now — and that doesn’t come from a data center; it comes from regular people who’ve agreed to share their connection. That’s the product: you know what you signed up for, you can watch it work, and you can turn it off whenever you want,” said Egle Maldute, Chief Product Officer at Bixberry.
As a reward for contributing their idle internet, users can choose from more than 5,000 gift card options from leading global brands, including Amazon, Steam, Spotify, PlayStation, and Visa prepaid cards. Payouts start from just $10 earned, among the lowest thresholds in the category, and gift cards are delivered directly to the user’s inbox within minutes of cashing out.
During early access, Bixberry’s network supported real-time retrieval for AI applications that rely on real-world web access. The company’s primary focus is on simplicity and accessibility. From the outset, Bixberry is built around quality and genuine demand, prioritising real AI workloads over volume so that participation stays meaningful. New signups can be done in seconds, and users are immediately able to start earning from any part of the globe. The network is available worldwide, including emerging markets that are often excluded from mainstream rewards-based platforms, giving people everywhere a way to take part in the growing AI economy and benefit directly from it.
Bixberry was built around a simple standard for consent: participation is explicit, visible, and reversible. Users choose to join, can see what their connection supports, and can stop at any time. The network never accesses the private contents of a device — no personal files, cookies, or browsing history — and reaches only publicly available data. The network only carries traffic for verified, legitimate businesses, vetted before any traffic flows through the system. For Bixberry, GDPR and California’s CCPA compliance are ongoing commitments rather than one-time certifications.
Bixberry invites users from all over the world to become a part of its growing ecosystem. As part of its global launch, the company is offering a free $2 welcome bonus to all new members for a limited time.
