The offers alone on InboxDollars make you some serious money in a hurry! They take longer to actually pay you when you cash out than it takes to complete the tasks. Lol I would say that I would rate this site 9/10, the speed of the payouts the only thing thats keeping it from a 10/10!

Inboxdollars seems like a good way to make pocket change, but I wouldnt quit my day job just yet. I have accumulated 48 dollars so far, and opted to cash that out, for which I am still waiting. Cashed out in June, and the check arrival time is sept 1st. If nothing else, it pays for my beer.

10 days to get paid
October 30, 2021

Don't know what happened. Have not used to this for the past couple of years, and got back on and met my $10 minimum for withdraw. It's telling me it will be 10 days before it is deposited into my PayPal account! No Bueno!

Lousy
September 11, 2020

I was a member of inboxdollars for several years. Every few months throughout that period, they made it harder and harder to reach their minimum payout level of $30. Their interface to coupons.com does not work properly and no one I've contacted wants to take responsibility for fixing it. They've now deactivated my account because of an accidental entry of my date of birth (one of my cats jumped up on the desk while I was scrolling in the drop-down box for "year of birth" and hit the "enter" key, making it look like I'd entered "2012") and refuse to answer my requests to re-activate my account. In short: you will spend far too much time trying to earn a few bucks here AND the customer service sucks.

You do surveys, they ask a lot of personal questions that could be used for anything, are people so stupid to provide all that for few cents? Yes, you can probably provide fake info, I stopped at 2nd question since I figured it will get worse! They also spam your inbox like crazy.

Actually pays
December 16, 2020

This app is a great way to make a very small amount of cash on your free time, I've cashed out like 8 times now but for some reason today my account was deactivated, no email or anything as to why, very upsetting considering I've talked very highly of inboxdollars in the past.

I enjoy using this site. I've been using it for a little over a month and I've redeemed about $90. In a strange and unprecedented time stuck at home as the pandemic continues, I find myself playing games and taking surveys to earn giftcards for restaurants and stores I buy from regularly. A reliable investment of time. Easier for me in the beginning to rack up points but I think it will balance out as new surveys come along. Not all game/app challenges are achievable without paying, but some are doable. Helpful to follow their social media pages for tips, giveaways, and winit codes! I've never used the app but I recommend the site/company. It's one of several I use frequently.

Inbox Dollars is like a partime job in your pocket! Earn with surveys, cashback deals, games, apps, videos, web search, saved receipts, and more. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, it takes a few days to get money once you cash out, not to mention there are certain amounts you must reach to get all your money for example 10$ 15$ 30$... etc. And anything between these numbers gets left behind in your inbox Dollars account online, to go towards your next cash out

4/5- one star removed for unoptimized app

The Inboxdollars app itself crashes frequently opening or mid-survey causing lost progress on various android devices and may take few times opening.

Foy payouts and options to choose from to earn money are actually plentiful and give a good amount of money. Payouts have been consistent which is a great positive

Be sure to read some app and survey small print as some don't immediately reward and have a holding period. Large selection of instant reward types though! Overall happy and would like to see app eventually fixed

I joined inboxdollars about a year ago and I've completed surveys, watched videos, signed up for new products, etc, to get as much money as could to cash out. Yesterday my balance was over $74 and today my account was deactivated. I've read all these reviews and people with lower balances who have tried to cash out were not able to. I thought this site was legit but it's a scam site. Don't waste your time, they took almost $100 from me.

In the beginning, you earn $5 bonus for signing up and completing your core survey info (age, location, etc). However, any time after that, I never knew if I qualified for a survey! I would click on the ones picked for me, do the pre-survey, and almost 97% of the time, it said I wasn't qualified. Such a frustrating, hair pulling experience. You also need to make $30 to do your first withdrawal, and I've been wasting over a week trying to get there and I only have $14.50 made. I sue the search engine, I play the games, I take as many surveys as I actually can, I watch the videos, and yet somehow I'm moving like a slug

Very dissatisfied
October 30, 2020

Was once a member of SendEarnings for many years until they closed and suggested to have remaining earnings transferred to their sister site Inboxdollars.com. Well in doing so, I lost all my earnings, was told the transfer was late, even though it wasn't. Since then and being a new member with Inbox Dollars, (just a couple of weeks), I received an email stating I was banned from taking their surveys but could utilize the other programs. This is it, I never took a survey, just read and confirmed emails. Now I find out that I don't receive any emails to read. I'm not even in their system. I have done nothing wrong. They have my personal information. Now I'm going to file a complaint with the Consumer Finance, FTC and the SEC.

At the time I signed up, I had the impression that it was a legitimate -although low-paying- way to earn money. But when I tried it for myself, they paid me next to nothing to allow them to flood me with ads. There were some higher paid activities I could've done that might earn me near minimum wage, but those asked for my credit card information at the end of a very long survey, or mysteriously cut off and I couldn't figure out how to finish the activity, crap like that, so I never did them. I did give out my phone number, and I've been getting scam calls ever since (about a year ago), even after I signed up with the Do Not Call Registry. I didn't bother trying to earn the minimum amount ($30 I think?) to get paid.

Such a waste
April 29, 2016

They start you off with easy paying surveys, etc... Then after you get around the 12-15 dollar mark, everything slows down. You qualify for near to nothing after much wasted time. I've talked to customer service about the payouts and surveys, but to no avail. I'm looking for better payouts/ websites and I suggest you do the same.

Janna,
Sorry to hear you experienced this with our site but to help clarify, our links for cash activities such as surveys, offers, videos, etc are all provided by advertisers who have no access to your earnings amount or totals.
The only qualification required is for surveys and the cash tasks, shopping, videos, radio, coupons, Groupon, easy cash/free offers, etc are all free to participate in without cost to you! Hope you give us another try!

A really scam
September 25, 2020

I took surveys in inboxdollars for about three weeks. Later my account was deactivated. Here is its answer:

"After further review of your account, our team has confirmed our decision that your account will remain closed for noncompliance with our Terms of Service.
To continue providing all of our members with great services and Rewards, we prohibit any unauthorized activity that could negatively impact our community and site.
Please keep in mind that your case is officially closed and this will be a final resolution to this issue."

They never provide proof about the supposed violation of their terms of use. Don't waste your time on this platform.

I became a member hoping to earn extra money in my spare time however 9 times out of 10 I spent twenty minutes answering survey questions only to be informed (after 20 min of answering questions)that I "wasn't a good fit for their survey"perhaps this is good for someone who has literally nothing else to do, but if u have a job and/or a family do not waste your time with inbox dollars!

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.
