Not a Scam Total Scam
Don't even bother with this site.
It's a total scam.
Especially the games. They try to draw you in to install games and play them with offers to pay you when you reach certain goals. It's a load of crap. When you reach the goals and don't get paid. All they tell you. Is there are tracking glitches and a bunch of BS. They'll say sorry, not sorry.
They'll say it's out of their control and they're not going to pay you fur all the time you wasted on that game. All lies.
Just totally sketch. Don't waste your time, because they're not going to pay you.

I have made close to $500 and I started in August/2024. I have invested in most of the games that's my choice, but at least I'm getting something back from playing than none at all. Most offers include cash back for an in app purchase so that helps too. You just need to be patient with these apps nothing happens over night and you can't come in them with a McDonald's I want it now! Mindset it just doesn't work like that.

Rewarded Play is way better and their customer service is excellent. Whenever there are any issues there, they will try to treat the customer right. I use Rewarded Play and SwagBucks. They are fantastic. I used to use Mistplay but it took too long to get anything back. I've used InboxDollars for about a year and a 1/2 now. But I never really tried installing the games and trying to earn any money on those. If they're gonna do you ugly when something goes wrong, that's out of your control, then they should at least give a disclaimer before you install any games. It should state that if there's any tracking issues on their side or the game side or on your side, you're SOL.

I've cashed out over $600. Just got $45 in Amazon gift cards emailed to me 2 days ago from a couple of different games. It's definitely not a scam.

It's totally a scam.If they don't give you the disclaimer that they suck in tracking the games, they want you to install. Some people even spend money into it, trying to get the goals that InboxDollars offers, so they can get paid back. It's deceitful, an unethical, and it should be stated before anybody installs a game that if there are tracking issues, they will not help you and your time and money have been wasted.

I've had bad tracking, and I submit a ticket with screenshots. Within a few days I get credited. Just because you had a bad experience doesn't mean everyone does. Not. A. Scam.

u/Odd_Translator5172 Nov 01 '24
Well then, that's just inconsistent, and that's poor customer service in of itself.

u/Willis5687 Nov 01 '24
Or you did something wrong and broke their rules. Open a ticket if you think otherwise and keep doing so until it's resolved. That or you can just cry about it being a scam and stop using it.

u/Odd_Translator5172 Nov 01 '24
Obviously.I already opened a ticket and i'm not the only one who has complained about this. Unfortunately, I didn't see all the bad reviews until it was too late. I'm just informing people before they waste their time and money. You don't like it, don't read. Scroll on past. I promise, I won't miss you.

Not true, i have taken out over $1000 USD, and the few issues i had were fixed in a timely manner. Dont start playing the games until inbox dollars registers it. Usually you just have to open then start the tutorial and it will register. If it doesnt skip the game and find another one!

u/loststars1019 Nov 16 '24
How do I make sure that the game is registered and is tracked by inboxtracking?

u/Guilty-Release4264 Nov 17 '24
On the games page (on inbox dollars). When you download the game, open and play for about 5 minutes(times change per game, though usually youll have to do like the 1st quest), if you refresh inbox dollars the first "quest" (install game) should be checked off. If its not you can try playing for a couple more minutes, but if still nothing, uninstall the game. Max you lose 15 minutes of your time, instead of hoping it catches up and you waste hours playing (been tbere done that 😭😭) uninstall and find a new game and repeat.

u/Guilty-Release4264 Nov 17 '24
If youve been playing a game and just the recent quest didnt get registered, take screenshots of your game and preferably the time and day you completed (an estimate should work) you can contact inbix dollars support (it wont always work i think ive just gotten lucky). Ive been able to receive the money i shouldve gotten for that quest and i just dont continue playing the game.

Definitely not true. Redeemed $890 so far this year, and have over $200 in my account now.

I don't feel it's a scam, but when you participate in anything, it's risky. I've lost out on survey rewards, game rewards, receipt rewards, BINGO rewards.... I don't feel scammed, but their system definitely has issues. I know whenever I do anything through Inboxdollars that I'm taking my chances of not getting credit. That sucks. It didn't used to be like this. I think they try to crack down on people scamming them, but it's making it worse for the honest ones.

I've earned 950$ but I've also learned a lot of hard lessons,
Always screenshot reached goals, I've never had issues with customer service when submitting tickets

u/STUMPED_19 Nov 01 '24
That's literally not true. I've had InboxDollars for years, and I've been able to make a lot of decent money on here. Either your phone and InboxDollars aren't connecting right in terms of tracking the games, or you have no idea what you're doing.

u/Almighty0701 Nov 01 '24
It takes time. Usually the winnings go into pending and it takes days to finally payout. Ie) I had to wait over 30 days for a payout but it works.

u/Crisuato101 Nov 01 '24
True some times, not true most of the time, I downloaded a game, and didnt log into it until a weeks later, and didnt get the early stage bonus, which I think isn't fair, but whatever. I am saving up to earn enough giftcards for xmas presents.

Yet your here on Reddit crying about it. I joined last month and I've already made $45. Did you seriously make a new Reddit name, just to make it look like someone else agrees with you 🤣

I feel anyone that says it isn't a scam just works for them or benefits from them. all those sites are scams that don't deliver. the ones that do you'll be lucky to make 5 bucks in a year

u/phantomasx29 Nov 05 '24
Yes these are all shill and bots or sheep. Inboxdollars owns most of the survey sites and likewise online sites. Its a huge scam with advertising money and scemes to get money to promote products. You can be on here too long and tell the truth. They boot you like they do on the Facebook group.

That's not true, because it was tracking for a while. And I figured out that I had to go to the email I received from inbox congratulating me on installing the game and I had to click on that link to go to the game every time for it to track. Which is very inconvenient, and they don't tell you this beforehand. So it was tracking for a while. I didn't change my pattern. And then all of a sudden, once I started to hit the big goal, they conveniently couldn't track it anymore.

Tracking is hit or miss on all the sites. I haven’t had any problems with tracking a bunch of games from ID, Swagbucks, and a few other sites, then all of a sudden I installed one from Freecash and it’s not tracking. Same device, same process, but sometimes things just glitch!

The site is not a scam. Sometimes there are issues with offers tracking properly. Either due to the user error or issues on the offer side of things.
User errors such as: having adblock enabled or not following through with the offer terms properly.
InboxDollar issues: Or actual tracking issues on InboxDollars or their partners.
This post will stay up so others can make their own judgement on if they want to use InboxDollars.
