### 1/5 — Crashes

*2025-08-15, version 2.5*

Does not work anymore

### 1/5 — App crashes every time I open it

*2025-05-21, version 2.5*

Submitting never works and now every time i open it, it just crashes

### 1/5 — No support

*2024-08-07, version 2.5*

No more support for this app

### 1/5 — Not taking submissions but they still let you scan your codes- SCAM

*2024-04-24, version 2.5*

I have 81 codes scanned into the app that have been stuck for about a year now. If they’re not taking submissions then they shouldn’t even let you scan your codes. Total waste of time. I don’t even have those code cards anymore.

### 1/5 — i have to wait for rounds? what.🧍🏻‍♀️

*2024-03-09, version 2.5*

i have to wait til they “open”? 🧍🏻‍♀️bruh. 🤦🏻‍♀️

### 1/5 — Scanned 500 codes and it didn’t accept

*2024-02-10, version 2.5*

I have used a different app before this one and it blatantly tells you if they  are accepting codes at the time. THIS app does. It. I took 90 minutes scanning 500+ codes and it let me submit them ONLY to then tell me they were not accepting codes at the time but would store them on the app for me. That’s ridiculous. It should clearly state as soon as you open the app if it is currently accepting codes are not. Waste of time. There’s better buyers out there.

### 1/5 — No way to contact

*2023-11-15, version 2.5*

I download the app scanned in 900 cards and once I hit submit ,it told me then that they were not a dating codes.Not before on the “website” that links to the app.So scanning 900 codes was pointless .

### 1/5 — Fake

*2023-08-25, version 2.5*

After you scan it freezes and you can’t open anymore. Scam scam scam

### 1/5 — Scam

*2023-06-24, version 2.5*

Every time I put in code cards, it says try back in August that they reached their limit if that keeps going on and you never make any money and they get the codes for free.

### 2/5 — App Is Now Crashing Instantly After Launching App.

*2023-05-05, version 2.5*

The app is now crashing instantly after launching it. This has caused me to lose all of the codes I had scanned in the app.
