Inbox Dollars is a great website to earn a little extra cash. It's easy to earn money just reading your email and searching online. Once in a while I also do a couple of surveys and offers. They also offer the opportunity to earn while playing games or watching videos but I don't use those. The program is not a scam, I got my first check already. This is no way to make a living, but a nice way to make extra cash while doing minimal effort.

Waste of time
October 11, 2017

This site is a waste of time. Rewards take a long time to acquire. Once acquired they take even longer to payout. Beware you can get deleted out of the blue with all your earnings lost. Also spin a wheel never wins money.

5 stars!
August 14, 2021

Inboxdollars is the first legitimate site that I have found! And they do not send unnecessary emails. I have been able to cash out quite a few times. From receiving a check by mail to getting gift cards for shopping and dining out.

I've been filling out their surveys for about 10 months. The checks always came in on time however they were never more than $ 40. I recently accumulated more than $ 50. I submitted a request for payment and guess what. NO CHECK! It never came so I got on their chat line, discussed the problem and the "Chat Person" told me that it was cost $ 5 for a new check to be issued. I agreed and I am still waiting for a new check.

Scam
December 31, 2017

Surveys don't pay anywhere enough to make the surveys worth your time. All money making offers, even the 100% free offers asks that you pay silver and gold sponsors 1000% or more than what inbox offers in return. The Spin and Win wheel is rigged. I've spun the wheel a lot. Each time it lands on sweeps ticket or lose turn every time. I've seen the wheel slow down, then momentarily pick up speed to avoid landing on cash prizes, I've literally seen it stop on $1 and $5, then the wheel flashed and moved off the winning spot, just to land on sweeps ticket or lose turn again. I've recorded it for proof. I've mentioned this before and it is somehow my fault. As they tell everyone. Beware this is a scam.

I just wanted to submit feedback - I have been using this site for a couple of months and for the most part it offers a variety of ways to earn. However, on the surveys that dont qualify, you have taken a good 10-20 (or more) mins before they tell you you dont qualify and you get a spin and win. This is a good idea in theory, but to have 2 spots with no wins and the fact that most of the time it seems to land on no win, it makes me feel my unqualified efforts were a complete waste of time and discourages me from participating in any future surveys. I think either pre-qualification should narrow down surveys better so you dont have to waste so much time, or something should be added to the spin and win to make it more favorable. I would share this site with more people if some of these things were cleaned up, but I am afraid that I would be wasting time of friends too. If you dont do survey's - all their other categories are just pennies worth and so takes forever to earn anything!

Pending time
August 1, 2021

I like that you can cash out to other platforms such as PayPal, Amazon, eBay and much more.
I just don't care for the pending time. Not just from the other sites but the cash out time as well.
But hey, it's nearly free money all in one place.

Surprisingly quick payouts.
September 12, 2024

I'm always apprehensive when it comes to "free" money. I anticipate fine print, endless loops and solicitation. Inbox hasn't been that. I've honestly only engaged the app here and there for 2 or 3 months and have already cashed out $10 through PayPal twice. The first one took about 2 or 3 weeks to receive, but the second payout only took a few days. Of all the b*ll$#*! "free" money out there, this is one of the few I would recommend. Though for some reason I'm getting kicked from almost every single survey due to not being a "good" fit. Aka, inbox claims I may have been dishonest during a survey apparently. Which is false. I have no reason to lie in an anonymous testimony that is worth $2. It might just be their cute little way of advertising high paying surveys, but not really offering them. Either way, it did pay out and that's worth 3 stars.

Inbox dollars
September 21, 2016

This site I would consider one of my top five. It consistently has surveys of all kinds. It does take longer to get to the amount where you can get a payout but once you day it does come in pretty quick. I have been using this site on a off for a couple of years I have received some payouts just not as often as others. On top of surveys they have videos, shopping, referrals and search engine that you also get points on.

Take endless surveys and one or two might pay out some chump change. They direct you to thousands of other ads and claim no responsibility when you realize they are trying to scam you. Also, the $5.00 they promise you to sign up only gets paid when you hit $30 on their site. Something conveniently left out in the sign up presses. Cleaver but futile

Hi William,
Sorry to hear your experience with our survey providers was not a positive one as we do try to find the best surveys available for our members but it is important to note that the amount of the survey offered is listed on the survey prior to the attempt. This way you can decide what surveys and the amount you'd like to try for.

All surveys are provided by third party advertisers and we do clearly state in our terms that we work with third party advertisers so all crediting is provided based on completion of activities on the site.

I'm including a link to our terms that are always provided to members prior to joining to help clarify our request payment requirements which does state a minimum of $30.00 is required to request payment.
http://www.inboxdollars.com/pages/terms

When a member does create an account with us we do issue the $5.00 as promised as soon as you activate your account.

We do realize that our site may not be for everyone but we do try to disclose up front how our site works and how crediting can be obtained. We also have some very helpful articles in the support center as well as 24/7 live chat agents.

Forget It

About the only good thing I can say about them is, when I signed up I got a $5 bonus. After several months building up enough to get a payment, this past Friday, I have enough, and today they close my account. Don't waste your time.

I've been using Inboxdollars for a few months now and they are easily one of the best money making websites out there. The cash out is quick the only thing is that customer support is kind of slow getting you help but once they do get around to it they are usually very helpful and can easily fix the problem your having pretty quick. I like Inboxdollars it's a great side gig to make money. They offer so many different ways to earn money my favorite is playing games to earn money they have all types of games you can play to earn money I definitely recommend Inboxdollars to anyone who wants to earn a little extra money.

I was with InBoxDollars for almost exactly 9 years. God only knows why I stuck with them that long. They informed me yesterday that I could only take surveys from Peanut Labs and when I tried to do that this morning I was kicked out of every one of them. When I was asked to give feedback on my delightful experience I said I thought I had been rejected due to age discrimination. At that point my account was abruptly and permanently locked. I have a little over $24 in my account, but I need six dollars to cash in. They've paid me exactly 10 times in all these years and the last time was March of 2019. So... the little..."bums" are going to cheat me out of money I've to acquire for more than a year. They are just the worst. I had a better experience at Toluna and they were pretty bad.

Needs Improvement
December 20, 2023

I cashed out $100 and have not received it. Now I'm being asked to do a review on cashing out. It's a joke. No one is happy with the way it's being run now. Getting help is quite difficult. Things don't pay out as they should. FIX IT please.

Overview

The company has garnered mixed feedback from customers, with positive remarks highlighting the variety of surveys and the potential to earn extra cash. However, significant concerns overshadow these strengths, primarily revolving around prolonged payment processing times and difficulties in receiving rewards. Customers frequently report frustrations with survey accessibility and completion, as well as inadequate customer support when issues arise. The overall sentiment suggests that while the platform offers opportunities for earning, the execution of payouts and responsiveness to customer inquiries require substantial improvement to enhance user satisfaction and trust.
