This is an amazing site that lets you apply to try out and review new beauty produts before they hit the stores. This sight in 100% legit. It works so well and you can earn gift cards for different stores I love this and despite others bad reviews it is a great sight.

Bad experience
October 18, 2018

I belonged to this platform for 4 years, I came from answering the reviews honestly, after being inactive for a few months I returned to the platform and I received many surveys to answer, many of them were double and I answered them and for no reason my account was deleted I tried to contact them and they never answered my emails... bad experience

Like many other people they closed my account without reason or explanation after I accumulated a bunch of points. I had enough for over $100 and as soon as I redeemed $60 worth they shut my account without sending my gift cards. This is a common practice. They have 1/5 stars on BBB. They are a shady company. Do not use

Well, the thing is after you qualify and try to cash out they don't let you!
Id been trying to redeem my points but they keep coming back for no reason, is like they don't want you to get your freaking money, This is the most stupid thing i've ever seen in my life.

Have been trying for months to validate my account so I can redeem my points to no avail... and have applied to sample with no response or follow up. So much better before the upgrade. Please just go back to the way it was!

Love it.!

I love using crowdtap. I've been using the website for the past 3 years. You get giftcards and you can complete missions to earn points. The other interesting thing is that they can send you full size items.!

Disabled
August 5, 2022

Hi my name is Jennifer I am grateful to Crowdtap and what they have done for me but a few weeks ago my account was disabled without any reason and so far the support has not wanted to do anything for me just reject my request and I have already been answered by several people and it seems that they are bot because their responses are automated and are very groceries on their part especially Ms. Betty S.

A Great Site
April 5, 2019

I have really enjoyed being on this site! I like doing surveys and answering questions about various products or my lifestyle or things in general. At times I get to try products too and this is fun! A very fun website and company!

I've tried to get this situated but their customer service is terrible and they don't even respond or try to help. I made a second account and the same thing happen.

Hello, Alicia. Although we wish it weren't the case, there are instances when profiles are banned and we take great care before taking that step. We abide by the regulations of our Terms of Service, specifically in this case, sections 4.7 and 4.8, with the intention of being able to reward and support the Crowdtap community members as a whole. We do offer an appeals process (humans do err), but depending on the specific cause of a profile's banning (i. E., evidence of duplicated accounts, accounts created and/or used outside Crowdtap’s allowed territories), that may affect whether or not you hear back from us.

In this case, Alicia, your account was incorrectly banned and your profile has been reactivated. We apologize for the inconvenience. You should have received an email from our support team already regarding this.

Crowdtap is a legitimate site where you can earn gift cards for answering poll questions and you can enter for a chance to sample free products. So far I've gotten a cracker barrel cheese pairing plate free certificate, revlon eyelash curler & mascara, revlon eyebrow colorstay & tweezers all for free & I have revlon foundation on its way.

I was banned and I'm not sure why. I belong to a lot of free for reviews sites and don't have any problems on any of them. When I try to sign in it says "sorry your account was deleted" by who? Why? Oh and I didn't earn a thing on their site because I was banned almost right away. I cant say if its a scam or not beecause I wasnt on there long enough.

Hi Jessica, If you see a message saying your account was deleted, you are not banned! It means you accidentally deleted your account, but it can easily be undone. Just email support@crowdtap.com and we'll fix it for you.

Be careful. I am so glad that I didn't make over $600 dollars in a year being with crowdtap. They actually tax you if your products combined with the amazon gift cards reached $600 a year. If you don't believe me, read this here: http://chasemyreviews.blogspot.ca/2016/01/crowdtap-review.html?m=1

Hi there - We're sorry for any frustration related to this! Unfortunately this is the tax law that we are required to follow. We're happy to provide you with more information about the law, guidelines and information we need if you meet the $600 threshold. To clarify, we do not tax you on the products you receive - the government does, and we apologize for any confusion along the way. Feel free to reach out to us at support@crowdtap.com with further questions regarding this!

I have been a member of crowdtap since their beta stage; when you would rank up from cardboard and all the way to platinum.

Crowdtap has come me a long way since beta, and so much has changed.

I love this website. I have sampled so many different products and written so many reviews. I have supplemented my income with their rewards ( which really helped me when I was a single parent and needed things for my daughter). And I have felt like my opinion mattered!

Degit give crowdtap a chance; you won't be disappointed.

Great company!
February 24, 2019

I love this company, not only to you get to test out products for free. They give your points for every opinion or question asked, unlike most companies. And you can get gift cards. I highly recommend this program if you want to help companies with their products and in return get free stuff.

I love Crowdtap!
February 22, 2019

I personally have recieved a few sample boxes from Crowdtap and was blown away, totally impressed! They were packed with full size products, not just little samples and always high quality. No gimmicks, just stay up to date on completing surveys on their site and follow the review process after getting your free box. You also build up points that you can redeem for gift cards. I've cashed in two $5 Amazon cards and working on my 3rd!

I have been an active Criedtap member for over a few years and they have never let me down. It is completely free, no "Preminum Membership" to purchase, everyone is treated equally.
Crowdtap works with specific companies who want feedback from real people. Based on your indicated preferences there are daily questions, surveys, sample opportunities etc that are rewarded with points and the points are easily redeemed through the site and turned in to gift cards for various retailers or you can choose to donate the money to a charity.
I also like that you are told whether you are accepted for a product trial or whether they were looking for a different demographic.
Lastly, every time I have emailed their Help Center I have had an helpful, efficient response within 24 hours.

Easy to do mission's. Samplers and rewards. Been doing crowdtap for a couple years now. Earned a lot of rewards and got a lot of samples. Even full sized products! <3 wish they had more samplers though. Because i love reviewing products leaving reviews and getting rewards

Terrible
September 21, 2019

I joined this site recently and was in the process of answering the profile questions. I kept getting warnings that I was breaking rules and not answering with quality responses. I answered everything honestly, wrote long answers to the open ended questions, etc. Account suspended. Emailed them and was told I broke rules. I asked how and they said I gave low quality answers. I asked for an example and was told again my answers were low quality, but they couldn't give me an example. They then told me that they would reactivate my account if I promised to answer with quality responses. So I log in today and immediately get flagged and not sure why since it was just a multiple choice question about what sports I like, I checked the ones I do and hit submit, account suspended. Not worth wasting my time on these scammers.
