On.December 29th & 30th of 2023 I signed up for this app and was supposed to recieve $5 for EVERY person I referred and got to sign up. I spread the word and was able to get 27 new sign-*** which I should have received $131 for. Today I see that instead of paying me what they promised me for bringing them business they voided every one of my referrals! If this company can't keep their word for something so simple I cant imagine what else this company lies about. I also tried looking for the Terms of the referral program to see if I did something wrong but they're aren't any. They even responded to an email I sent saying sorry for the delay but we promise you will get what you.are owed. DO NOT TRUST this company. They do not pay!Business Response
