No Luck With Lucktastic (Imported From rewardsfordisney.blog)

After my initial disappointment with Swagbucks, I thought I’d really lucked out with this one. Right off the bat, I won $1 cash and 1000 tokens. But I soon learned that everyone wins $1 when they start. I am now at $2.25, but it takes $10 to request a check.

The tokens are the real source of the prizes and it only took me three months to cash out the first $25 (less time than it took for Swagbucks). However, I earned the first 25,000 tokens in a week and spent three months earning the remaining 45,000 needed to cash out. It would have taken even longer had I kept trying for a Wal-Mart gift card, but I decided the $25 AMC gift card was a better value at 70,000 tokens as opposed to 85,000 tokens for a $25 Wal-Mart gift card. This decision was only partially influenced by the fact that Geostorm comes out next month. So now I am back to zero tokens with no sign-on bonus or apps to download to help me earn the next gift card.

How does it work? – scratch off cards and collect bonuses. Occasionally, you might actually win the prize, but usually only the really low prizes like 25 or 50 tokens. I have won 1000 tokens and 400 tokens one time each. Don’t expect to win cash though, not even the $1 scratch card. I earned $.50 and $.75 from a daily bonus and a scratch card bonus. But those are rare occurrences. You can also download apps for bonus tokens, but be aware they frequently don’t pay out. In fact, the last three I downloaded didn’t give me the promised tokens so I am reluctant to try this method again.

How buggy is it? – the only issue I’ve noticed is the failure to award tokens for downloading apps.

How lucrative is it? – I earned the first $25 in three months, but I expect it to take 6 months or longer to earn the second.

Does it actually pay? – I received my gift card the same day I cashed out.
