Legit Company, Just Inconvenient

I get virtual visa prepaid cards from doing surveys and focus groups. The digital card is legit, it is just a pain that 1. I can't merge the totals from the different cards I am issued, and 2. a lot of places don't like prepaid cards so I am limited on where I can spend it. Other than that, I don't have any complaints. It serves its purpose. The company is not a scam like others are saying. It could be that they were scammed by a company pretending to be this company.

it is not trustworthy

this site is a fake, send bad rewards link and never respond to fix the problem. I do not recommend it to anyone, I am developing 3 apps and had planned to use this platform but it is not trustworthy

SCAM*SCAM*SCAM

***IF YOU SEE THIS PLACE, RUN! DO NOT WALK!
IT IS A TOTAL SCAM**
Although zero-stars is not an option, that is what I would give if I could. I did a study on January 7th. 3 months later I still have not gotten paid because I cannot obtain an activation code. I have sent thousands of emails to the company that hired me as well as virtualrewardcenter, and they send me the same useless reply every time. When I called yesterday I spent 2 hours on the phone performing the same ineffectual tasks multiple times. Finally the representative said she would "escalate" the matter and have someone get back to me. Since no one called me back I called back today. Again, I performed the same useless, ineffectual tasks after which the representative said she would "escalate." I explained that I have been doing the same things multiple times every day for 3 months to no avail, and that the matter was supposed to be escalated already. She hung up on me.

Doesn't work.

Doesn't work.

Had two cards. Did not work at Apple or Amazon.

Seems legit, but I would not use this company on either side - buyer or user.

Would recommend avoiding.

A lot of whiny, misleading reviews here ...

A lot of whiny, junk reviews here.

I do surveys occasionally if they pay enough, and I got the message saying my "virtual reward" was a click away via a blue button from "reward [at] virtualrewardcenter.com".

I just wanted to check if this is a phishing or similar scam to harvest information, because it references the research team, but not which research project it was (so it's not 100% clear).

Site works, though. It takes you to the gift card code and forwarded me to Amazon, where I input the code, got my $100. I opened an incognito browser and checked my gift card balance and confirmed the balance was increased. Legit service.

Useless. I better get my money back.

Don't trust the Virtual Rewards Center

While it's trendy to use two factor authentication or 2FA, if the company is too stupid, lazy, incompetent or just outright fraudulent to actually SEND the code so people at least log into their account, it holding my money ransom and not paying any interest.

Haven't Been Able to Use Virtual Card

Received a $15 virtual card from Office Depot (if you spend so much money you get a free gift card) in October 2024. Cannot get it to work anywhere! I have tried online purchase, in store purchases typing in the info on a key pad, etc. Nothing works. I emailed Virtual Rewards and finally got a response after two days. They said the card has to be used for the exact amount or it won't work unless the retailer will take more than one type of payment. Guess I'll try that but it seems like more of a scam than anything. I'll update if I can get it to work. Good luck to everyone!

Scammy and stupid

Recieved a virtual reward with $20 and I can't log in and it doesn't send out new password when you request a change. Worst website ever. No one returns emails or you can't even get through via phone it feels like a scam now

This company is total crap

This company is total crap. I received an email that my reward was in my virtual account, but it wasn't. I got three different stories about why it wasn't there, now it's being looked at by an "escalation" team?! WTF.....this company needs to be investigated!!!

Similar experience as everyone else…

Similar experience as everyone else here. A reward card that is declined every time and every where I try to use it. A customer service token is required every time I contact support. After several unsuccessful attempts to use the card I have asked for a check to be sent to me as an alternative. Not holding my breath while waiting for a response. Update Jan 4, 2025..I was able to add the card to my Ebay account and did successfully make a purchase using the card. Unfortunate that it took so much effort to use it.

Would give a zero if possible

Would give a zero if possible. I received a virtual card for about $90. Everything was good but I had some difficulties redeeming so ended up forgetting about it. The card ended up expiring about 3 months ago, which is ok, becuase other companies like this you just call and they issue a new card, saying the card expires, not the money or the value. They refused to give me my money and issue a new card. No explanation given except we do not re-issue cards. I thought that was illegal to not give me my money? Use your card right away if possible or you will LOSE YOUR MONEY!! STAY AWAY from this card issuer, other ones are more trust worthy.

Slow

Almost a scam with the slowness. Excuse is that it is busy but always busy. No other reward program take more than 24hrs. They take almost 2 months.

no reward email…

I cashed in 2 $5.00 ecards to amazon.com. I was told the reward would come in an email. I have never received the actual emails containing the rewards only the verification codes. I still haven't received them and no one wants to explain to me what happened to them. I checked all folders and there is nothing there. ONly verification emails and nothing else . I want my money. I have had nothing but trouble for the last few months when it comes to redeeming points. I don't understand why the emails with the rewards are not getting to me when you people say you have sent them. I am very disappointed and frustrated. As a senior citizen on a fixed income this is the only way I have to earn extra money.

NO stars

BEWARE!!! If I could give virtualrewardcenter.com no stars, I would. From the first attempt to use the "virtual reward" to the poor and unhelpful responses of customer service, it was impossible to use the so-called "reward." Any MERCHANT who uses this gimmick is only giving a frustrating experience to their customer!

This Is A Stupid Virtual Card

This Is A Stupid Virtual Card, It Has Way To Many Issues. I Need To Check The Balances On 3 Different Virtual Cards, And EveryTime I Type The Website In I Get A Message Saying “User Not Found”. And If There Is A Website On The Back Of The Virtual Card You Can’t Understand What It Says. I Also Had Three Other People Look At The Back Of The Virtual Card, They Couldn’t Understand What It Says As Well. The Government Needs To Close This Bank Down. They Apparently Have Deep Issues, Considering All These Complaints. Ok Good-Bye For Now.
