Very useful and lucrative app (5 stars)
This app has provided me a wealth of information and options in the form of apps that could be and have been useful to me mostly in the financial arena. Not only have I found apps that I needed that I may never have found on my own but I’ve been paid to use those apps by Steady. The payments have been substantial and mostly easy to get. Steady also provides information on potential employment opportunities and really on any topic that may help you to improve your finances such as insurance deals, debt consolidation companies, information on survey apps, bank accounts and so on. I highly recommend Steady as a way to consolidate a large amount of information and offers that are normally scattered about your App Store and the internet. Here it is all in one place. To top it off steady helps you track your income, spending, and credit across all of your accounts, so it is truly a one stop financial shop.

Used to be a great app
When I first started using this app a little over 2 years ago, it’s was a great app, I completed several of the boosters and received my payment within 1-3 days every time. More recently after not having a need to take advantage of the income boosters for about a year and a half, I completed 2 boosters about a month ago and I haven’t received my payment for either one. I did notice that the terms and conditions states that it may take 90 days to receive payment but if I recall it stated the same thing or very similar in the past when I received my payment quickly. In my opinion if it is going to take 90 days to receive the booster then the whole purpose of the boosters is pointless. I have emailed support several times in hopes to maybe get an idea about the status of the booster payments but have yet to receive a response. This app would be great if it were more like it used to be.

Not worth the time and they won’t pay you
I used Steady to sign up with Varo bank (under a different email) in August 2022 bc they were offering $75 within 90 days to do so and I needed a new bank. I read all the fine print, and made sure to follow all the sign-up instructions to a T to make sure I got the monies. Fast forward to about a month after the 90 days is up and I haven’t heard anything. I email support SEVERAL TIMES and they finally respond telling me to provide proof that I signed up with Varo bank using all their instructions, which I provided immediately. I waited another two months, and finally got the email I had been waiting on. They granted me my reward, finally.
When I signed up with Varo bank I was promised $75 because I signed up within a specific time period. If you go to the app today, that $75 sign-up reward has dropped by over half to just $30. This $30 is what they FINALLY paid me after a full year of waiting. Not the $75 they promised me. And I will keep fighting for the rest of my money owed bc this b*llsh*t is ridiculous.
In the meantime, I’d recommend to everyone else not using Steady for extra money. Chances are you’ll never get it all unless you want to fight a lazy support team.

Still waiting
If you’re looking for an app with a promisingly quick payout this is NOT the app for you… I completed 2 boosters on 4/07 for $20 and 4/13 for $10, and although I see some other reviewers received their payouts quickly, I am not one of them. I have yet to see either of my 2 booster payments rewarded to my preferred payout method (my linked bank checking account.) I understand in their terms and conditions it mentions that boosters can take upwards of 90 days to arrive but usually when it says that it’s no where near that long before you get paid. I guess I should’ve taken it literally as that’s what it seems I might be waiting to see my booster rewards. I even emailed support to make sure the offers were completed properly and they responded yes that they were and just reiterated the 90 day waiting period mentioned in the terms and conditions. I just feel like chances are if you’re using apps like “Steady” you’re in need of the funds pretty quickly and there’s plenty of similar apps and websites, willing to get you your payout much MUCH faster.

Never received my booster!
My experience with the app so far has been horrible to say the least. Soon as I signed up I went with the $75 Varo booster and completed all the steps exactly as it stated to do in the instructions. After a couple of months of not receiving any kind of communications or deposits showing in my account I reached out to customer support which is by email. By this time I had been getting my paychecks deposited into my Varo account and spent way over the requirement needed to receive the booster. So I emailed customer support explaining to them that I had not yet received my booster. Over a month later I received a reply back asking me to provide screenshots or my welcome email that I received after setting up my Varo account. So I submitted the requested screenshots and it’s been months and have not heard anything at all back from customer support. Hopefully others have had a better experience because mine has not been great at all.

I gave it a try and I was not disappointed
This app is amazing, from the opportunities to make some extra money to the wonderful customer service. After completing my first booster I patiently waited to receive my $75 reward, after reading that it could take up to 90 days. I began to worry when time passed and I still had not received anything, so I reached out to customer support. Realistically, I expected to wait a good while for a response, if I even got one. If I did get an answer, I expected to be given some reason why I would not be getting the reward. Instead, I quickly received an apology for the delay, and was told that the reward would be manually entered, and I’d have it in 7-10 days. Within two days I had it.

Varo booster
The reason I give only 3 starts is because it took longer than 90 days to receive the booster. I mean 90 day waiting period seems a bit much to begin with. I also had to take it upon myself to search for another way to contact them. I tried inquiring about the status of my booster payment in the app 3 times never got a reply so I had to google contact information for steady and email them a couple times before I heard back. It took close to 4 months for me receive the money and I feel that if I never took it upon myself to find other contact options that I would still be waiting for the booster and probably would never have received it at all. To wrap this up I did indeed receive the booster so it’s not a scam just poor customer service.

WILL NOT PAY YOU!!
A year ago I would have given 5 stars. I was always paid within a week or 2 of completing a booster. Today…ZERO stars! I’ve been waiting over a month now on the payout for a booster. Been waiting on a reply from their support team for a few weeks now. They do not respond. Seems they respond to these reviews though. If you’d spend as much time replying to emails as you do trying to redeem yourselves in these ratings there probably wouldn’t be so many negative reviews. You should also try paying people for the boosters as promised. The description of the boosts insinuate that a customer will be paid in a timely manor. However, that is NOT the case. 30 days I’ve been waiting and still no payment. Your fine print says that it could take up to 60 days to receive payout. It doesn’t say that it will. Just that it could take up to.… yet many of these reviews are from ppl who have waited more than 60 days and still no payment. You should make it clear, in bold print, at the top of the booster that you’re not going to send the payout and to not bother with contacting support because no one will respond. That would save others from wasting their time completing boosters that they’re expecting to be paid for in a timely manor. Pretty pathetic way to conduct yourselves honestly. Why not shut down the boosters until you’ve paid all of the people you currently owe? Since you’re obviously overwhelmed and understaffed…

What’s going on with Steady lately?
Started using steady I would say about 2yrs ago and they’ve always been pretty good at sending out payments for boosters completed. However, I’ve recently been having trouble getting in contact with steady about a booster I completed nearly 2 months ago. Typically it would take about 2 weeks to receive my payment but as of late, its been hard getting into contact with Steady via email, let alone receiving my payment. The booster was for $25, and it’s mind boggling that it’s taken this long to receive my payment especially since I’ve done boosters for $50 in the past and the payments came a lot quicker. I understand their policy says wait up to 60 days, but that seems ridiculous for just a $25 booster. And the closer it gets to 60 days the more unlikely it seems that I’ll receive my payment. 2yrs ago Steady would have gotten a 5 star out of me, but I can only give them 1 star as of now because of the recent lapse.

Horrible Communication, False Advertising
Steady does not reply to emails at all. I have sent three so far and have yet to receive anything close to a response. I have completed income boosters and from reading the eligibility criteria I should have received a payout for the both of them already. Yet, all I received in return was an email stating that they have received my response. They really need to put out a disclaimer for this as the schedule of when you are to receive anything isn’t clear, otherwise this is definitely false advertisement. Otherwise, Steady is an okay app that lets you track spending and find jobs (not better than apps specifically for that purpose). What makes Steady appeal to consumers is their income boosters which I do believe to be a scam as they still haven’t responded or resolved anything with me, though I do have a Varo and Upgrade checking account which I do receive direct deposits in. Lastly, this is not to bash the company but to share my honest opinion about their services. For people actually in need of “income boosters” as they call it, you are better off finding another app.

Don’t expect too get money from this app.
My experience with Steady was decent at first, it does give you different ideas on other ways too make cash, however, you cannot trust the money to be deposited into your account within a reasonable amount of time, After waiting 3 months after completing open of the income boosters I have yet to receive any funds even though it shows complete on the app itself, I then resorted too emailing customer service about the fact that I have yet to receive the funds and have waited close to 3 weeks thus far without a response from them, it is quite easy too see this as more of scamming app for other apps and websites to use rather then a way too make any money with completing boosters and what not, there customer service as well has been quite difficult too reach or even connect with to resolve any issues that may arise. Good idea, but terrible flow and equally terrible customer service leads this too be a increasingly poor decision too even take part in.

Not like it used to be
That’s for sure. Steady used to…well….steadily pay on its income boosters. Now they dip out on paying and steadily ignore emails. Awesome. Edit: in response to the developer response: I followed your instructions and guess what? STILL NO FREAKING RESPONSE OR PAYMENT!!!!!! Edit 2: after my first edit, Steady *finally* decided to “pay me” for 2 completed income boosters…in the form of 2 Tango rewards virtual Visa gift cards, despite my bank account having been successfully linked for months and my specifying I wanted paid to my bank account. At this point I’m honestly starting to wonder if they’re just messing with me for some unknown reason. Can’t use these stupid gift cards for anything I actually need, like gas or cigarettes or anything at a physical store, at least 3 online vendors have already declined them, can’t use them with CashApp or PayPal, and I’m not holding out hope of being able to use them at all now. Thanks so much, Steady, for steadily going down the drain!
Edit 3: hey Steady how about paying me to my linked bank account instead of issuing these worthless gift cards I can’t use anywhere?????

It’s unfortunate | PLEASE READ|
This is my first review. The first time I’ve left a review because I feel as though people like myself who have been in a bind at one point or another in their lives, feel some hope when they run across an app like this that could provide enough money for your next meal. It’s unfortunate. It’s unfortunate that when you trust a company like steady, to provide incentives to you, that even after you’ve done the work you never receive. It’s unfortunate that even after their customer service admits you’ve did everything they asked you to do in order to receive your money bonus or any type of incentive, they can’t tell you when you’ll receive it. Most incentives they offer, ask you to give them 60 days before you see said bonus. Mine was way past that time. And it’s unfortunate that they actually don’t have to get it to you in that time and had no explanation for me as to why. Yet, I have no doubt that STEADY is still receiving THEIR incentive from these companies for getting people like myself to sign up. It’s just, unfortunate.

Slow payouts and even slower support
So this app would be great if it weren’t for two things: 1) they take forever to pay out on some of the boosters. I have one that I completed almost 3 months ago, and still have not received the payout yet. This despite the fact that over a month ago, I contacted their support to find out what the issue was. After a week, they finally got back to me and sent me an email stating the booster was completed. But the bottom of the email stated it might take up to 30 more days to receive the payout for some reason. Well, 30 days was up on 9/10, and still nothing. I sent them another email on 9/09, and have still not heard a thing back from them.
EDIT: It’s 9/14, and I still have not heard back from Steady support regarding this issue.
2) their support takes longer to respond back to you than any other companies support I have ever dealt with in all my life. That’s literally not an exaggeration. See above for examples.

This is the real search engine for real companies who really will look out for you.
When I first downloaded Steady I thought it was a scam. Having gotten late to the benefit, work from home, investment trend in the US I realize very quickly through other sites that they were just after my information. Steady connected me with so many actual applications that I use daily if not multiple times. I have accurate snapshots from several different apps that are trusted and secured to see and predict where my money is going. I’m able to build secured behavior for backed loans off of multiple different money accounts each with her own card both digital and physical. More than anything I haven’t given a chance to take a look at my credit and working hand-in-hand with other investment apps provided through Steady I haven’t felt this good about tomorrow in a very long time. This app is definitely worth it.

It’s okay just a bit annoying and slow
I like the app and all of the different income boosters. There is a wide variety and it’s awesome thing that I usually need or should get anyway. However, I don’t know why but it takes forever for the support people to get back to you and also, it just doesn’t even tell you if your income booster was completed successfully which is the annoying part. I have had this app for about 5 months and have completed 4 income boosters and have not received any money. For some reason or another they have an issue keeping up or figuring out if an income booster was completed. I have had to email support every time I complete one. I completed an income booster and was waiting and waiting and wondered hmmm.. I feel like I should have gotten that five bucks by now… then I ask them and have to send them proof of it and then wait ANOTHER 2 months to get paid. Like, come on. Also you have to use the same email that you use on the app when you complete income booster or else you just wasted your time and you cannot redo it. It’s disappointing for sure. However, it has turned me on to several different and great apps for finances.

Pleasantly surprised!
I wasn’t really sure what to expect other than I thought it would be just like a ton of other apps that I use one time and then get frustrated. This one surprised me with an incredibly large selection of options. There is a very wide range of job types but also of income streams…Some I had never thought of or heard of and even ways to make money and earn rewards on the app itself. I feel like everything is very easy to use considering how complex it actually is. This is an app that I think is incredibly helpful because it takes everything related to economics and puts it in one place whether it’s looking for a job or investing money, saving money or wanting to have passive income. I know that I haven’t even began to scratch the surface on everything it has the offer but so far I have not hesitated to share it with people. And I even get rewarded for sharing it!

Must connect bank account
The app doesn’t let you in unless you connect you bank account. It says by linking your accounts, you gain access to: receiving cash bonuses right to your account, a detailed overview of your income health and see what jobs make you the most money. That’s all well and good but can I browse first and see if there’s even any jobs I can or want to do before I give you access to my bank accounts?? I can see the requirement for bank account access once you start a job and need to transfer your funds out, but I don’t see why in order to even get in, you need to provide bank access. Let me browse and decide this is even useful for me before I decide to connect a bank account.
I received a response from the developer which describes their app as “an income advisor” and “like a budgeting tool but for income”.
Yet, in the App Store, the app is name: Steady- Earn Money. Perhaps you should be name Steady- Income Advisor. You can’t market yourself as a money earner for users but then describe yourself as an income advisor when folks complain about the requirement to link bank accounts.

Boosters
I downloaded this app so I could earn a few Extra bucks easy . I saw an ad for it on IG and figured why not. Many of the boosters involve enrolling in an account that will apply a monthly charge after one free month which is annoying because you have to keep track of them and make sure you cancel so you aren’t charged because many of them are pretty useless. I opened a bank account about a week ago and deposited the required amount of funds and I emailed Steady support just to ensure that I did do everything properly but I still haven’t heard back and that was 4 business days ago. They say to expect the booster amount within ten business days so I suppose I will hopefully see it by then but their customer service isn’t very responsive. All and all not super impressed and there are very few boosters that are actually worth doing so it’s likely I won’t use this app long but if I do happen to get the $50 (which I’m skeptical clearly) I’ll be surprised. I only entered 5 stars so people could see this realistically this app gets about 2/5 stars for me .
