“Easy and quick but probably not worth it”

So far I have had a great experience with Referral Cars. Its quick, easy. Great agent. The shipping fee is reasonable otherwise its totally free. The only negative things I can say is the 24 hour wait after activation and, at least for me I got an add campaign that probably wont make me anything at all. We will see.

“They make money; you don't!”

Informed a sticker for my car would only be $12 but then a bunch of add ons that I had to get which ended up costing me $40. I drive 110 miles everyday through 3 major cities I've found it strange that no one was calling the number on the back of my wind shield. Had a few friends and family call the number to get some credit yet whenever I checked my clicks I was informed that I got 0. H time I filed a complaint with customer service the only response I ever got was after 7 days explaining that if I had no more complaints they would close the file.

Well Ive gotten my sticker and applied it right away. Unfortunately the market I'm advertising in must not be paying attention as my dashboard is still empty after a month. I'm hopeful that people will realize what a bargain this service is and call in soon. I've driven about 2500 Miles from NH to NJ and around the towns near me. Someone will get the idea sooner or later

I got my campaign sticker for my car and had it on my car for over 3 months and drive my car over 80 miles a day five days a weeks back and forth from work and got nothing in return in the way of commissions. After 3 months I was given a $100 restaurant.com gift code, after being told it would be a regular gift card, that is near impossible to redeem. Never will I ever do business with this company again!

It's a nice little easy side business, but I've put out promotions aside from the decal and still have not made any sales. I feel like the decals should be bigger with less info, or we should have additional products (like business cards, etc.) to be able to promote the referral/decal. The staff are nice from what I've experienced so far, but don't expect to make a lot of money unless you are really good at marketing or in an area where people are more likely to respond to these decals.

Great way to make extra money while doing nothing more than driving around or while your car is sitting in the parking lot while you do your shopping or go to a sporting event. Frankly its a great idea and a win win situation for both parties involved.

One of the best service I had in a long time. Very friendly people willing to help anyway they can. Made everything easy for me to understand it.

The website needs a little more work to give it a better explanation of how things work! The charts don't really seem to explain it all to clearly and there really are still al whole lot of questions to be answered and no one to answer them. The layout is nice but not really functional I haven't seen my click count climbing and I know of several people that have called the number just for the heck of it and well I am not too sure that it really does work. I guess time will tell?

Everything has been good so far. The staff there seems professional and pleasant. I can't wait to start finding leads, and earning commission.

Referralcars and my advisors specifically did absolutely amazing getting me started and helping me feel comfortable with the process. I still haven't received my advertisement sticker yet, so the very quick and easy process is all for naught so far. I'm hoping I recieve my sticker soon in order to put it on my car and see how quickly revenue begins to accumulate. As said before, amazing start to the process, just stuck waiting for now.

I'm very pleased to have been introduced to ReferralCars.
I drive a lot! I've ofen wondered how I could find some way to make it worth my while when logging in so many miles.
This opportunity allows you to use your car for advertising to drive business to the company you're representing.
Once someone connects with that company, you receive payment for your advertising.
Pretty simple! And a passive way to earn while you are simply driving in your daily routines.

I'm loving the idea of making money by just driving around. I have a busy life so this is ideal! Definitely a no brainer for me!

I got sold a dumb sticker that noone even asks my what it is about. And i really dont see anyone signing up ever. It would be awesome if the company gave me a taste of what they sell. And if it is so rad- then I would be using other multiple media to inform people of savings benefits --- but I dont see or know of it/them, so it might as well be in Swahili and or Spanish..

I haven't had any issues since I got started. I hope to see great results. The customer service and email information is quite helpful. It's a step
By step. Uncomplicated process.

I had upgraded decal on my car for over 3 months. Drove all over, did not receive any sales at all. I figured at least I'll earn the $100 gift card... guess what people? It is a restaurant.com DISCOUNT card and the only restaurant that is near me refuses to even honor the card! I have to spend a minimum amount out of pocket FIRST in order to use the $10, $15, $20 certificate. So it is a big waste of time and I'm totally disappointed! Decal is now in trash where it belongs

I had my sticker for over 2 years and didn't make a dime! Don't waste your time and money. I wish I had never heard of this company

I believe there was good intent here, however, I have driven countless miles during my routine ride-sharing gigs. I have had only 7 clicks and no luck making any profit. I am contemplating removing the decal from my vehicle, as it is very hard to see out of at night especially when it's raining. The water beads up and forms a sheet of glaring headlights. The rear wiper doesn't seem to help.

THIS IS A 1000% SCAM! I DIDN'T EVER SIGN UP BUT GAVE THEM MY EMAIL THAT WAS FOUR MONTHS OLD AND NO EMAILS WAS GOING IT AND AFTER I GAVE THEM MY EMAIL AND NEVER REPLIED BACK TO THEM, ALL OF A SUDDEN MY EMAIL WAS RECEIVING OVER 60 EMAIL A DAY FOR EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN! THEY SOLD MY EMAIL TO ALL THE SCAMMERS THEY COULD!

Probably more effective for zoom benefits as the website is more prominent than the phone number... One month in and 0.00 dollars generated... it is about what I expected so not really disappointed. Staff was on point and fulfilled all expectations.

It's a great idea! Having an advertisement on your personal vehicle should be no problem for most, so the extra money is great. The staff is super helpful, and when my decals didn't arrive in the mail, they promptly sent out more and I even got an extra one. I haven't made a dime yet since my particular campaign is commission based, and no one has used my advertisement, but theres not a thing the staff can do about that. Five stars for helpfulness, and the greatness of the idea (regardless of results).

I work at the airport, I uber and lyft. I also live in the inner city, on got 2 clicks in 3 months. I made zero commission and the promises of a gift card if no commission is made are completely false.

I love the concept your company have for earning money while you're doing every day earns. This loving arrangement for a parent who has disabled child and travels alot. However, if no one ever calls what happens. I paid extra for more revenue but worried now might not ever make a dime. It took nearly two months to get my decal. I wish since I have it on the car can you at least earn for effort because I am riding everywhere w/Ad... can not make anyone call.
