Pogo: Earn on Everything 4+

Great So Far

I’ve only just downloaded this app earlier this week, but I am a seasoned “rewards” app user. This app is extremely user-friendly and hands down one of the easiest rewards apps to use. All you have to do is connect your debit card(s) and bam you're earning points, & earning points means you're making free money. Within 45 seconds of dowloading the app I had made 50¢, which I know doesn’t SOUND like a lot, but 50¢ a minute is Definitely a good deal. I’m also not seeing any penalties/exclusions for using other rewards apps in conjunction with this one, which is relieving, because those are the ones I use the least & often end up getting automatically offloaded from my phone. As of the time of posting, Pogo accepts most mainstream debit cards and legitimate online/mobile banks like Chime & Current, but does Not accept quick payment apps, like Venmo. I'm sure this will change over time, but it is something that could be a dealbreaker for some right now. However, most rewards apps have similar rules & regulations as well as penalties for using their competitor’s apps isn't uncommon with rewards apps, so if you're new to the game & don’t have a bank account, you should definitely use one of the mobile banking companies I listed above.

I haven’t tried to Cash Out thru this app yet, but i’ll come update the review when I do :)

Best app for surveys! EASY Rewards!!

Finding an app like this has been a godsend for me! I’ve tried all the rewards and survey apps this is the best one yet. What is great about Pogo is that I can do as many surveys as I’d like and they have a very straightforward cash out to PayPal. It only takes $3 to cash out! Way better than trying to hit a $25 limit like other apps.

The other thing Id like to highlight is getting rewards on every purchase. Just link your cards and start earning rewards for the past 2 weeks! I don’t have to remember to scan receipts like Fetch and everything is so smooth with this app. I’ve had no issues so far and already have cashed out multiple times in the last month!

The people behind Pogo have clearly understood the pain of using clumsy and scammy rewards apps and have done something truly different. I don’t write many reviews for apps but for this one, I just had to make sure they knew how much I loved it!

Do Not Download! It Tracks Your Info Long After Deactivation of the APP

So I downloaded this app a while back. Did everything you’re supposed to do to get points like down load receipts, shared all my info, checked into places and claimed the daily free points. I wound up earning $6 I believe in a decent amount of time. I was like this app ain’t so bad. So I went to cash out through PayPal. It gave me I believe the deposit date of the next day and low and behold no deposit. I emailed support and got a generic “looking into it” response and never heard anything back so I deleted and deactivated the app.

This is where it gets creepy. I literally get notifications all the time saying like “you’ve earned points by going to Walgreens today”. I’m like yeah I was at Walgreens but you’re supposed to be deactivated. After months of this I go to log on thinking I must be earning some decent points. When I tried logging in it said that this account is deactivated and I need to email support. Okay so if the account is deactivated and I need to email support to re-activate it then why in the world is it still collecting my data and sends me 10 notifications a day telling me where I’ve been? I’m pretty sure it’s illegal without my permission. It’s a bummer because the app was easy to use and seemed fair. But after not getting my deposit and the thing still tracks me after I deactivated it I highly recommend not downloading it.
