I don’t download these apps to play games, I download them to do the daily check-ins and receipt scans. I use MANY of these receipt apps, have been for years. When I started at the beginning of the year Copper seemed ok. I was able to upload like 15 receipts a week, not the greatest I’ve seen but whatever. NOW they’ve made stupid “levels” and you are only allowed to upload like 3-5 receipts (and if you accidents snap a pic of a receipt outside the timeframe they count that as a scan even though you get zero points!) until you move up to the next level and they are basically forcing you to earn “xp” to be able to upload more. In order to earn XP you HAVE to play the games and make in-app purchases, and sign-up for the “offers”. I don’t play games on these apps bc I don’t have the time to invest in them. It’s really irritating that they’re pretty much shaping how you’re able to use this app and it’s not at the user’s discretion anymore. This app is a load of dog dookie now. 🙄 Rated 5 stars so this will actually get seen by people. If you have loads of time to play games and complete “offers” then you may have better luck. If you only want it for the weekly receipt scanning points and check-ins I’d say don’t bother. There’s tons of way better apps out there to earn $$ for receipt scanning. And they don’t force you to play games in order to be able to upload said receipts.

After reading mostly positive reviews, I decided to download Copper 2 months ago. I hoped it would be different than other apps of its kind, and it definitely has been! There is a good varience of games where coins are awarded at level achievements; the offers tab provides opportunities for earning additional coins through partnering apps; coins can be easily earned by those who are frequent shoppers, just take a photo of your receipts & earn 4 coins for each (limit of 20 snaps/wkly) but earning money documenting your spending couldn’t be that easy…Well it is. Coins can also be earned through surveys which I would love to participate in & i attempt often, but I never seem to end up qualifying for. I realize the surveys are administered by a partner group, but If you have the patience & are willing to spend 15-20 mins only to find out you won’t be credited for the wasted time then give it a shot, or perhaps you’ll find this tab a more lucrative means than myself or many others have. Either way you choose, it only takes a few minutes a day to earn the 500 coins ($5 min) to cash out. I was able to cash out $5 within my first week. With no money required, Copper is an easy, fun way to make extra cash & with consistency supplements nicely. Thanks Copper for creating a reliable & enjoyable app for those looking to earn some extra cash!!

***I only gave Copper 5 stars so my review would be near the top and serve as a warning to others to avoid the app ***The app seems to have issues reading receipts that, when I look at the photo, are quite clear. Many of my receipts have been rejected because of this. The surveys? Don’t even bother. You’ll spend several minutes answering questions, only to be told you don’t qualify or to have the survey just *POOF!* disappear whilst you’re in the middle of it. I downloaded one of the games, and mostly play it as I’m waiting for an appointment or for a few minutes before bed. It seems you have to attain a certain level in a fairly short period of time, so the games for points thing doesn’t really work for me. There are better apps out there if you want to rack up points faster.UPDATE: I came back after my last review over a year ago to report that the app is still glitchy. The daily check-ins don’t always register, so I end up back at square one, despite having 56 consecutive days of check-ins. I’m “back at it” today, even though I logged in yesterday. I’ll scan a receipt, only for the app to get stuck. I’ve noticed others have had several issues similar to mine. I really hope the developer finally works out the long standing bugs, but for now I’ll stick with Fetch and CoinOut. Copper has officially become a waste of time for me.

So I like the app and it’s a great way to earn rewards but I will say this….they have THE WORST customer service that I have ever experienced. I have had 2 problems with trying to get credit for missing credits for completing offers and it takes forever for them to get back to you. Like the first problem I had it took nearly 1 1/2 months to finally get the credits and I am basically being ghosted now for the 2nd issue I have had…like I had another offer issue that I addressed and they were quick to get back at first and asked me to provide screenshots, in which I did, and they said that they would get back to me within 1-2 business after looking over everything I provided for them that I did in fact complete an offer for and still have not heard back from them and it’s been 1 1/2 months and counting…I have been constantly following up and getting no responses in return, not even an update (like we are still working on your request)….Other than that, the app is great but just be aware about completing offers because they don’t count like they should (which there is probably some weird glitch about it if I had to guess) and trying to reach out to customer support is a pain in the butt….hopefully my 2nd missing credit issue gets resolved soon because I have worked on and completed an offer that should have gotten me over $100 worth of credits
