No 25$ Gift Card. Avoid submitting your review at all cost.
I recently received an invitation email from deel & G2, as my company uses an HR app called deel, inviting me to write a review on G2 in exchange for a $25 gift card.
The message stated that once my review was approved, I would receive another email with instructions on how to redeem the reward.
I invested considerable time and effort in crafting a detailed, genuine review based entirely on my personal experience. I even attached a screenshot to verify my authenticity as a real user.
My review was subsequently approved, and I received an email confirming this approval.
However, there was no mention of the promised gift card or redemption process. When I reached out to customer support for clarification, I was met with a response stating that my review was deemed “not based on a genuine experience”. I therefore did not qualify for approval—even though it had already been approved, and that I had submitted proof of my usage.
This situation feels deeply misleading and unprofessional. I followed every instruction carefully, provided evidence, and engaged in good faith. Yet, not only was the promised incentive withheld, but I also discovered that even after deleting my account, my review would remain on the platform, beyond my control. (By neglecting data protection and user control, this service fails to meet modern standards. )
Such practices are deceptive and undermine user trust. I strongly advise others to refrain from participating in these so-called review reward programs, as they appear to be nothing more than a scam.

⚠️ ATTENTION SCAM Website
⚠️ ATTENTION — BIG SCAM! G2G IS A SCAMMER PLATFORM ⚠️
I’ve spent over $200 on three Steam accounts here — including orders #1758914087757OMOS and #1732745955293LHJ5 — and every single one was reclaimed by the original owner within days. The sellers promise the accounts are “safe” and “permanent,” but they just take them back after a short time.
G2G’s so-called “insurance” system (around 14 days) is part of the scam. The scammers know exactly how to use it — they wait until the period ends, then steal the accounts again, while G2G says, “Sorry, it’s out of insurance.” That’s their game.
Support is useless. They only send copy-paste messages like “we’re sorry, please contact us,” even when you already have. They never refund, they never ban the sellers, and they let the same scammers keep selling again and again.
This is not a mistake — it’s a scammer system built to look official. G2G protects sellers, not buyers. I’ve reported everything, and still nothing changes.
And I already know what they’ll do after this review — they’ll reply here with the same fake apology, pretending to care. Don’t fall for it.
DO NOT BUY FROM G2G. You’ll lose your money and your account. This site is a scam, and their “insurance” is a trap.

I don't understand this company
I don't understand this company. You submit a review, but even after multiple screenshots, your review still hasn't been approved. Maybe they require the third party to pay for review approval. Come on, G2.

Seems scammy and doesn't work
I asked Chat GPT how my company could be higher up in a search, and one of the sources it listed for improving was "get high ranking reviews on G2." I had never heard of this site before, but thought I'd give it a try.
First, it looks like it's not legit to me. Something about the styling, the old look of the website, the lay out, the content...just altogether makes it feel like a scammy site to me. I went ahead any way to see if next steps created any concern for me.
Second, I created an account and they asked for a verification process. I was unable to verify myself using the email and link they sent. I don't know why. I reached out for help and received no response. I then received reminder emails to verify my account, and responded asking for help, but they were "no reply" emails. I reached out for help via their website contact and received no response.
After about a month, I decided I would try again, and this time I used a more general email for my business instead of my personal email and created a new account. Same problem. I could not verify the account and I could not get help.
It seems that they really want something else, and I don't know what that is. Given how scammy the site looks, I'm not willing to keep trying. Hopefully AI searches will stop using this site for authoritative information about businesses.
G2's competitors are very easy to work with and seem more legitimate in every way.

Lie to get you to review.
They will happily offer money for your review, and after you put time into the review, tell you you were too late. Despite never stating a time limit or number of reviews from others.

This company baits you with gift cards...
This company baits you into writing a review by offering gift cards. After spending time and effort submitting a review etc they will say no gift cards are available. Save your time and don't review.

Untrustworthy as a service!
Really disappointing experience as a professional reviewer. Promises of token reward to invest time into reviews and then no rewards emerge. What a total waste of time. Account deleted and totally do not trust.

Solicit review with payments and then don't pay. Avoid leaving reviews here and don't trust the ones that are up. A paid review collector.

Great for honest software reviews
G2 is my go-to place for checking out software before I buy. The reviews are from real users, not just marketing hype. It's saved me from making bad decisions a few times. Really useful.

Good luck getting hold of a real person
Trying to get hold of real person is next to impossible if you are a paying customer. Support cancels tickets without any response or assistance. They seem to care more about about billing then making sure you are supported to be a successful as a customer.

Scammer
The company scammed me. I got an email saying that if I left a review, I would receive $25. I wrote the review, but then the company deleted our conversation. So be careful — all their reviews are paid and fake!

Avoid like the plague
Avoid like the plague. Same as so many others on here, promised a gift card, but then they said I wasnt one of the first, even though the original email just stated I had to leave a review before 31st of August, nothing about "being the first"
"It's your last chance to receive a £50 Amazon voucher just for you!
Leave us a quick review on G2 by 31st August and we’ll send a £50 Amazon voucher your way to treat yourself to something fun.
It only takes 5 minutes to complete - no strings, no awkward small talk. Don't miss out!"

Magic Money Disappearing Site
This site is amazing… if you’re a seller. They can revoke Valorant accounts after 14 days, and your money just disappears. Truly a ‘fantastic’ experience for buyers!

They requested a review of a service promising a gift card in exchange. The review was approved but no gift card.

I will not trust their reviews or ranking!
We selected a service based on their very favorable review and high ranking on their site, but the outcomes were disappointing. We shared an honest, low review and one-star ranking on their platform, but they continued to skip and make unreasonable excuses for not uploading it.
We’ll never depend on them again.

Gift Card - Beware
G2 is extremely difficult to work with if you have a question about receiving your gift card. I submitted a review, it was accepted and approved and is published, yet their customer service rep keeps telling me it doesn't merit the gift card. While it's only $10 it's the principle of the matter, I have sent them screen shots, of their emails, the published review, the acceptance /published email and yet they don't send the gift card. I have done reviews in the past where they did pay, I don't know why they wouldn't pay, all they say is it doesn't qualify for approval, yet I have the email saying it's approved. Also, when I try to respond to the email from support it always bounces back saying it's undelivered, talk about terrible customer service!

Misleading information about review gifts. From "we are happy to send you a gift" I received an email saying that I was not one of the first ones, so no gift.
