I love Crowdtap because it has a variety of ways to earn points: product testing, open ended questions, grid questions, multiple choices, discussion groups, sharing posts to social media etc. The UI is super cool because it's color coded and easy to understand.The BEST part is that you need at least 1000 points to redeem for gift cards, but it doesn't take weeks to get there. I usually redeem points in two days. Crowdtap is adding more gift card choices over time so that's nice. But it's one of the most fun and productive online communities I've joined.
I've been paid out roughly 20 times from prizes that range from 5$-25$ gift cards. I usually only get Amazon, and they pay out within 24 hours each time.
Never had any issues with them. Just put effort into your posts and you'll never be wronged by them. Cashed out around 300$ so far in my 9 months of using them.
They also run free samples, so far I've been accepted into a free battery pack and it's pretty good quality too.
Everyone who says this company is a scam, is SPOT ON! I decided to give it a try because there are positive reviews as well. Right before I was set to cash out at a 20$ gift card, my account was closed. I emailed customer service, and received a generic response. They told me my answers were inconsistent, irrelevant, and went against their terms of use. Considering I actually spent a substantial amount of time answering the questions and not just randomly clicking, the only conclusion is they boot people to not pay out rewards.
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.

I absolutely love Crowdtap! I was able to collect 3- $5 Amazon gift cards in less than 24 hours of joining. It is a lot of fun and hard to not join in. If you have free time like myself, this is a must do, especially for stay at home moms.
I love Crowdtap. As a stay at home mom every bit of alone time counts. With Crowdtap I now have something to do when I'm not doing anything. Plus earning gift cards gives me a guilt free reason to treat myself.
We love that, Gabby - a guilt free reason to treat yourself! Keep enjoying your alone time (with us).
My account was disabled, yet I had not violated any term and answered each question extensively. The customer service does not respond in a timely manner. You could be wasting your time because they cancel your account when you are points away from getting a reward.

Crowdtap. Is one of my favorite sampling sites. It's very easy to navigate. I enjoy helping out the brands and I get points when I complete missions in the form of grids, questionnaires or social media sharing of photos or videos, which I redeemed for numerous amazon e-gift cards and I receive great full size products to test and review.
Crowdtap is well worth my time and anyone who had bad experiences, maybe you not doing something right or following clear instructions or rules!
We love your enthusiasm, Clara. Thank you for taking the time to review!
Crowdtap is so dishonest! After I posted something to Facebook because it was required I was hacked by someone in Washington! Coincidence I Think Not! They also never sent the Gift Card they said they were! Such a scam, sure they are sharing/selling personal info hand over fist! Junk.

If you email our team at support@crowdtap.com you should hear back in 1-2 days. If you're missing a gift card we will provide it to you.
I've been a crowdtap for over two years and I'm quite happy. I answer questions that give me points for gift cards and you can apply to sample items. It's legit, fun, and totally worth it... Not to mention easy!
I've been a member for for over a year now and I can honestly say that this website is a legit place to earn gift cards for taking simple surveys/polls. I've lost track how many gift cards I have earned :) Compared to other sites, 1000 points for a $5 gift card seems like a lot of work for little payout, but it add up quickly. Not only can you earn gift cards, but they also run campaigns to receive free products to test in return for writing honest reviews. To date I've tested food products, cleaning products, hair care products, and skin care products. Sometimes I'll go several months before being selected to test and review, but then there are times like now I've been selected for 3 separate campaigns in the last month. It's a great website and I'm thrilled I discovered it!
I got 15$ then took a break and came back and cant log into my account :(. glad i didn't save up for 20 though i did have almost another 5 dollars. I'll probably make a new acc but i was rlly enjoying the site.
I have been with Crowdtap since the very beginning. A lot has changed since then. I have been able to sample so many products with them- when they first started they had these amazing Old Navy deals. I miss those recently I have sampled some kids' food products and I cash out about once a month for a $10 Amazon gift card- they have many options of gift cards available. You put in the time and you will get rewarded. It's not quick money though it is fun!
Thank you so much, Laressa, for your enthusiastic review. We love it that you've been a long-time member and hope you'll continue to enjoy sharing your opinions and participating in fun polls and surveys.
They disabled my account
For no reason. When I tried to contact customer service support by email for the past two weeks they have not responded back to me. I have sent several emails under high priority and nobody gets back to me so basically I give them one star. It was a good app while it was working but then after that I'm not so much I don't recommend people using this app because eventually they will do the same to you
I love crowdtap. It is a great site for trying and reviewing products. There were some glitches after the new upgrade, but you have to learn how to navigate the site and you wont have a problem. I love the fact that you earn gift cards while answering some survey questions. I believe the open ended questions can be improved though. Sometimes you dont get rewarded for answering the questions. But aside that, love it real good.
Thank you, Evelyn, for your feedback. We do have a points and rewards history feature in the works so you do not have to worry about missing points. Feel free to reach out to us at support@crowdtap.com.
I'm 19 and I signed up for my Crowdtap account because I love to try new things and give my opinion on them to help develop a product to be better or build upon something that already is as quality as it gets. A definite bonus is that I love make up & since just joining a few months ago, I've already gotten my 2nd chance to review full size cosmetics and keep them when I'm done. Revlon Kiss Cushion Lip Tints in two different colors was my first project. Now I'm getting some new make up to try out again! How does it get any better for a college student? Take it from me, it doesn't. Sign up for a free Crowdtap account, take fun & short surveys to get samples and test for free! The more interactive, honest and open you are the more gifts you will receive :)
Super photos and a fantastic review, Alyssa. Thank you for your enthusiasm!
I've been a loyal customer of theirs for at least a couple of years. During this pandemic, I was rarely logging on with so much going on at home. When I finally did try to get on a few weeks ago, I saw I was blocked and reached out to customer service. I got some message that it looks like others have received about Crowdtap's "security system" and "rewarding members for their honest engagement". I was appalled as I have never broken the terms and conditions and proceeded to email them back to let them know their response was not sufficient and if they could explain in further detail. I have sent at least two email follow-ups and have not received any response from them. I can also attest to the fact that they had blocked my mother's account too. At this point, with the way the customer service is ignoring my messages, it makes me not even want to be a part of their community and to tell everyone not to use their product!

Hi Noelle, We'd be happy to investigate further why your account was disabled to provide you with more information. Please provide your Support Request # either via Sitejabber messages or you can edit your review and add it on.
This website has so many quick and easy reviews that just takes very few minutes to take. I cannot give 5 whole stars (but would 4.5 if it was an option) because I have gotten only one of three products asked to review so far. So they just need to work on that process. Once they do, I can definitely give this company 5 stars. The product that I received so far to review were full size products. And they have very clear instructions on what you need to do to leave an honest review. I do recommend this service.
I am updating my review since I have learned more about it. The problem with the company is that when I joined they did not explain anything. I have learn from experience. Your points do ad up. You earn 1000 points and then get a $5 gift card from Amazon.com. You are very reliant on Facebook and expect you to have at least 25 friends. You have to click an icon to post on FB or Twitter or Instagram for just about everything. Your page becomes an advertisers dream. They can reject you when it comes to getting samples without telling you why. They want a lot for what they give you. I would rather have money. Amazon.com does not pay my bills. I do. Many times they will not respond to your emails.
My mom and i both signed up to use our accounts. When they noticed our address was the same they disabled our accounts stating that there are multiple accounts being used in the same location. How petty of them after spending hours on my account that still works and trying to make an account for her only for her to be unable to redeem all those points for her gift card and if we try to make another account to try again that will only get us banned. What kind of service... do not use them. You are better off using swagbucks.
I personally enjoy answering surveys, even more so when samples for new products are available, Go Go squeez was a refreshing new item that kids love. I will continue to participate with crowdtap as long as I'm able.
We appreciate that review, Casey!
Answer: You are not compensated for anything. You earn points. The points get you entries in contests. You could win just like you COULD win the lottery. You do not earn points that you can cash into gifts card or money. Remember this. Many times people who work for the company will do reviews on sites like this to make the company look good.
Answer: If you don't answer questions their way you're getting kicked off with no explanation or a response. And they will keep whatever points you have earned. They purposely ignore your emails. Sinister.
Crowdtap has a rating of 2.4 stars from 348 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally dissatisfied with their purchases. Reviewers dissatisfied with Crowdtap most frequently mention gift card, customer service and enough points. Crowdtap ranks 10th among Survey sites.
Tiffany, what a cool review. We are so glad that you enjoy Crowdtap and find it fun while earning points.
