Has anyone ever been paid by memolink? How long did it take you to reach payout? How many points does it take to reach payout? This is very unclear on the site. They have a meter that shows your progress, and mine doesn't seem to be moving. It has a scale of $0 to $10, but they pay in points. How am I supposed to know how close I am to cashing out?
It seems like a scam to me. How many of you out there have been paid by this site?

I am a member of memolink, but I bailed out when I realized that I was actually making better progress at mypoints. They run very similarly, but mypoints is affiliated with sites such as bzzagents and viewpoints so you get points from more then just the offers and the shopping you can do on the site. I have recieved one payout from mypoints and I'm very close to my second as we speak. I first chose a borders gift card and it came in handy when I had a baby shower to go to and nothing for the mommy or baby! I bought a baby care book with it. Also, I got a bonus gift card to a florest/gift shop. So, that was pretty neat too. I'm saving the gift card to the florest/gift shop so that when I go back home I can buy some flowers to put on my table and make things more cheery!

I am a member of mypoints, too. I think it's great. I got myself a cvs gift card because I am sure that I will eventually need some new makeup or shampoo! I like mypoints WAY better than I like memolink. I think memolink is a scam. it takes WAY too long to accumulate enough points to earn anything.

Well, I wish you luck at mypoints then. Are you a member at gather? I just joined at you get points there for participating as well. A lot of the seasoned members say they get cvs gift cards with their points and some have these interesting goals about getting 100 dollars in retail worth for only 10 dollars at cvs. I find it very interesting to say the least. I don't know what I'll use my point for yet!

Hmm, that sounds interesting. I haven't heard of gather before, but I would be willing to check it out if you wanted to send me a link. I have been researching ways to get free things or discounted things with coupons so this thing about 100 dollars worth of CVS stuff sounds interesting to me!

I've belonged to them for some years, and it does take forever to get enough points to get paid. The other sites i belong to that are run similarly are much easier to get enough points to get a payout, such as Mypoints and a new one called RewardPort. If you would like to join rewardport send me a message and I will send you the link.

If you notice where memolink records your points in the upper right corner, there is also a progress bar right underneath it. Its called the rewards meter. That shows you how close you are. Also you need 19,200 points in order to cash out the $10. I am not really active with them anymore. I just accept the paid emails and let the points add up. It seems like it takes too long to get to cash out level to me. Hope this info helped.

That cleared it up a bit. I noticed the points, and I noticed the meter, but there is no relation between the two stated anywhere on the site! If you do the math, you need 20 points to earn a cent on there. Each email is only worth six points. That means that you get paid LESS than a third of a cent per email? Bogus. I am not going to waste my time with them anymore!
Thanks for your help!
