Nope nothing going - Update 2023

I just installed the app and got set up, however, it says automatic stock back is still “coming soon”. This was the primary reason I downloaded the app. There is no area, that I have found, to link my credit cards and/or bank accounts. I see other reviews talking about the ability to do this so not sure if I’m missing something or not. I’ll update if I’m able to get it all working. Otherwise there is definitely potential. Update: September 17th I made my first purchase. I’m still waiting on the stock back to post. I know it says it can take up to 75 days to show, but when other apps can have their bits post in under two weeks, makes me wonder if this was just too good to be true. Also, it says I’m ranked #1 to get access to the brokerage account which opens up auto stock back. Been that way for about two+ weeks and still waiting. Update:2 After using Buts for a while now I have to say they’ve upgraded and it’s better than where it was. There is still work that needs to be done to make it perfect, but for what it’s grown too I think they’ve done great. They’re also very good at responding to questions and issues. Normally within a day or two. Which is faster than most others. $BoS:AdaKor Update 2023: app has stopped working. Unable to withdraw funds. Stay away. Go with Grifin.

Needs update

I have used the app for almost a year, and it is a great concept. The only problem is that in order to actually get the stocks you have to open a brokerage account through the app. I have tried since day one to open one, I go through all the steps and at the very end I submit and it says something went wrong. I have contacted them and they say it is the brokerage that that is having the problem. Well it hasn’t been fixed in over 6 months. I tried again today and it is the same. Maybe get a new brokerage. Or allow us to connect our own.

Good app with some growing pains.

Overall I love this app and the idea behind it. I have received quite a bit of stock back in rewards. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because there are some bugs when trying to claim a reward. It has worked every time for me, it just takes a long time to be completed. Developers are responsive when I reach out and are very helpful.

Thank you for the feedback. We are working around the clock to bring you a best-in-class app.

Don’t waste your time. This app is horrible!

I have had nothing but problems with this app. My cards will not stay linked. I’ve had to contact their customer support multiple times in the past to relink my card and have my rewards added to my balance. The app never pulls down the information for my card even when it was properly linked. I’d still have to contact support in order to get the transactions downloaded so my rewards could be added. Now when I try to relink my card it says that the credentials entered do not match. I literally went to my credit card app and manually entered the EXACT SAME login credentials and it logged me in on the credit card’s native app, I went back into Bits of Stock’s app and input the credentials EXACTLY THE SAME and got the same response that my login credentials were not recognized! This app is horrible at what it attempts to do. It is complete garbage. I have had the app now for several months in order to give it the benefit of the doubt in the hopes that they would get their bugs sorted out but after so many failures (this is at least the 10th time I’ve had problems with the app) as a result I will be leaving a 1 star review, deleting the app and closing this account (actually have had to contact support again to even try to get the stocks sold and my money cashed out, and most likely won’t even get the money owed to me). If you are considering this app as a way to earn some stock rewards don’t waste your time.
