“The "inbox dollars: fast and fair compensation" review”

Jeanette H.
7/11/24

I highly recommend InboxDollars for anyone looking to earn some extra money online. One of the things that sets them apart is how quickly and fairly they make payouts. I'm always amazed at how fast I receive my compensation after completing surveys or other tasks on their platform. It's clear that they prioritize their users' time and effort, which is greatly appreciated. Overall, I'd give InboxDollars a 5 out of 5 stars for their quick and fair compensation practices.

“Ridiculous and Unfair”

Bryan N.
12/11/24

I'm completely dissatisfied with Inbox dollars. Every thing was good until I completed my latest offer. I was supposed to receive $120. I was given $12. It's ridiculous and bad business. I screenshot my offers upon acceptance so I have the proof of what I was owed. I've heard from others about this happening but I had hoped for better.

Inbox Dollars is my favorite site to spend time on. It is not always surveys, in fact, very few surveys due to my VPN. I am able to make money doing other things, like uploading receipts, checking social media sites, using the offer wall, playing games, and so much more! It's like my afternoon tea every day! Thank you Inbox Dollars for your diversity!

Tip for consumers:
IT IS NOT JUST SURVEYS! I DO FEW OF THOSE BECAUSE OF MY VPN. I AM STILL ABLE TO MAKE ABOUT TWENTY A WEEK, FOR AN HOUR A DAY, OF SMALL TASKS, LIKE RECEIPTS, PLAYING GAMES, AND USING THE OFFER WALL. SIMPLE CHECKOUT TO PAY PAL WITHIN A FEW DAYS. FUN AND EASY! I INVITE YOU TO TRY IT!

Products used:
INBOX DOLLARS IS A ONE STOP SITE FOR MAKING MONEY IN VARIOUS WAYS, INCLUDING SURVEYS, SWEEPSTAKES, GAMES, AND MORE. I HAVE UTILIZED ALL THESE AND MORE. SUPER EASY TO NAVIGATE, AND MAKE MONEY WITHOUT SPENDING ALOT OF TIME.

30 dollar cash out minimum too high when surveys that you are 'qualified' to take are few and far between. Also, seems as if I am spending 20 minutes on a survey only to be told at the very end that I don't qualify. There are better ways to spend your time. Don't get ripped off.

Inbox dollars pays, and if you don't notice a credit that you expected, they will take care of it. I was skeptical but now I am comfortable dealing with this company and use it toale extra cash to help pay the bills.

This is a survey site with offers to earn money. A side hustle if you will. Highly recommend.

It is possible to get money, its completely legit. BUT... Each survey takes about 30-40 min ( in average, 20 min at least). What do you get after 40 minute? $. 12... NOT WORTH MY TIME!
I believe its perfect for someone who has no life. But once you get started, you will receive junk mail.

Its a great site to earn money playing games and taking surveys. What pays the best and most often is downloading and playing one or two games that offer cash rewards for playing and getting to certain levels. Most only take a little bit of spare time to earn sometimes over $50. Make sure you read the disclaimer on each app as they all have different levels that pay out.

Great site to earn extra cash!
August 3rd, 2023
• Previous review

Take surveys, download and play games, take pictures of receipts for cash back, and check out great offers from brands and websites we already use and get paid for doing it. So many ways to earn and cash out after $10 for most reward cards and PayPal. Cash out after $5 with an American Express virtual prepaid card.

There aren't products you can but from inboxdollars. You can earn extra cash there.

I feel that it takes FOREVER to make any money on InboxDollars. If you work really hard you can get some money. I found that survey websites are mainly gunning for your personal information. There are some cash rewards sites that do have a legit system but I could only find cash crate:

http://www.cashcrate.com/*******

This website has the survey option, but it also has other ways to getting paid without giving too much personal information. I usually reach payout 4 out of 5 times just for 5-10 minutes a day.

I've used the site sparingly over a few years. A year or two ago, they started a system where you are often paid in "sweeps" that you can use to enter in their own lottery system. I can not see how getting maybe money (or, really, most probably not money) is appealing to anyone. I essentially only do paid emails and one or 2 surveys a month. Once I cash out, after reaching the pretty unreasonable $30 dollar mark, I'm done with it.

I've been using InboxDollars for about 2 years now and I have accumulated over $100. The tasks are super simple, ranging from taking surveys to submitting receipts from purchases. You've already made. They even pay you for searching on the web playing games and even following them on social media

I like inboxdollars.com because I can actually earn extra cash for fun money. This how I am able to have treats such as restaurant goodies that don't affect my budget. I only gave 4 stars because I feel like the goals bar keeps being raised which makes it a little discouraging and harder to reach. Even though I enjoy inbox, I'm starting to feel that my participation time may be limited.

Tip for consumers:
Read qualification instructions carefully so that you don't waste your time and not receive your reward.

I've been a member for a few months now and have cashed out twice. First, for $15 and now for $5. I do not participate regularly just here and there. So I think that's not to bad... U can make money playing games but I don't make time for all that! Inbox dollars is straight forward and in black and white. Other sites keep stringing you along with another step / task for completion. I would definitely recommend this website!

I've had no real issues with payouts from Inboxdollars. I've been paid within 28-48 hours, though last weekend it took until Monday to get paid but that's probably because I cashed out over the weekend. Otherwise everything has been perfect! Only problem is I wish less survey's disqualified me but that's not an issue.

Everything has worked perfectly so far.

I absolutely recommend this website for making money. I'm not saying that you'll get rich overnight but I have cashed out a couple times and it is totally legit. My only issue with the site is how long it takes to receive your reward once cashed out. It doesn't take months but I would prefer if it would be 24 to 48 hours instead of 5 days

Tip for consumers:
Be patient it is totally worth it

This site is super easy to use and you do very little to get paid except relax and have fun on your phone playing around. You can play games,do surveys,cash in store receipts and much more. I made $65 in a month mostly from downloading and playing games. The cents look small at first but really add up when you play more than one game. I recommend this app to anyone who has time on their hands and needs a little extra cash every month. You can choose specific stores at cash out or a visa cash card code.

Tip for consumers:
Recommended for homebody people with lots of time on their hands to play multiple games at once for quicker earnings.

I spend 10 minutes filling out surveys for them to tell me at the end that I did not qualify. They get their survey filled out then don't have to pay you!? I should notify an agency and tell them people are getting ripped off. Also, the wheel with the free spins always lands on sweepstakes entries and you never win anything above. 05.

Have always loved inbox dollars but am somewhat disappointed that checks will no longer be issued after August. Checks have always been the easiest for me and gift cards are usually just a big hassle. Wish there was some way to continue with the checks

Inbox Dollars has so many great and fun offers that are very reasonable and mostly achievable depending on what kind of games you are into. I have had absolutely no problems with cashing out and they always do it exactly as it is stated. They are always offering surveys and different ways to earn and my sister has been using this Survey company for years and also referred me to it and I am so grateful she did! I have already made $40.00 just by completing surveys and game levels! If you are a mom at home with children like I am this a must try! You put in the effort you get the reward! Very worth the time and effort!

I have been with inbox dollars for 6 years and i really dont have anything negative to say due to the fact that i am cashing out on payment and hey the money is free! I know lot of you are getting frustrated because it seem like eternity to get $30 in your account but you got to realize this is not a get rich website, For those that think its a scam let them continue to be skeptical until they give it a try just like" we" that are making money are are doing. To everyone that is taking your time and earning good job.

I've been with Inbox Dollars for a while now, requesting payments every other Sunday (that way the card gets loaded the following Thursday) and for some reason recently I've been getting screwed out of credits. I will take a "15 minute" survey, which takes 40 minutes and then at the end (usually like 95% complete) it will say something like "The password you've entered has already been used to complete this survey." Come on! Get it together Inbox Dollars. I don't know what's going on. I have earned hundreds of dollars with you. Get it together.

I've used the site for years and have cashed out a few times. Now, however, I'm no longer receiving credit for anything. When I submit a support ticket, the tone of the response is like "how dare you question us?"

So I did a withdraw. I received it via PayPal. But now I can't gain access to the site at all! And I have money still to claim! Money I WORKED for and EARNED! I have been with inbox dollar for years and I am absolutely furious. Contacting support via email I'm told I need to submit a ticket in my activity ledger. Now just how the heck am I suppose to do that if I can't even login!? Can't login on the app either. And no one will return a message. I've tried email, apple App Store, Facebook messenger, Twitter, and Facebook comments. Nothing. Dead silence

I really love this site! It's 100% legit. It's as easy as reading emails, participating in surveys, and playing games! Yes, all that will earn you real cash! I've cashed out several times straight to my PayPal with no issues.

I've made actual money sitting on my couch which I never thought was worth my time but it's easy and only takes a small amount of your time to take surveys or play games and literally be paid to do it. My PayPal account is currently growing in funds thanks to Inboxdollars.com turns out that this is the easiest money I've ever made and I'm having fun doing it.

Inbox Dollars is one of my favorite apps of all time... They actually tell you exactly what you can make for each offer/survey/game/app. Then when you've completed it they credit your account. Once you make enough to cash out you can chose from tons of different gift cards even prepaid visa cards or have what you've earned sent to you in the form of a check. You won't be quitting your day job or become rich over night but a few extra dollars to spend at Walmart or eBay or one of the many clothing stores or restaurants that they offer couldn't hurt...

Tip for consumers:
Make sure you read the requirements for the rewards before you download the app other than that just have fun earning money playing games and taking surveys

Been doing this in spare time at work for the past few months. Over $300 redeemed and that really helps with inflation these days. I had a couple problems where i was locked out. And my phone would not verify. It was corrected quickly. I had a problem where 2 days after requesting a cash out that my account was locked and blocked with no explanation. It was resolved via customer service in a few days. I will continue to use them and click my surveys when i have down time at work. I will continue to appreciate the spare dollars it provides me and my household.

This is the another survey site that I have been participating in for years. Not only do they offer great gift cards but they now pay cash to your PayPal if that is your choice for redemption when you reach a minimum of $10.
