hello friends,
I just requested a Payout from TrekPay two weeks ago and till today the payment is not issued to my paypal account.
Is TrekPay turning Scam?
Does it normally take this long to get payments processed?
This is my first payment from TrekPay so I am not aware of normal patment time taken by them...
can you help me if you know when they pay?

Do you read Trekpay's frontpage when you visit their site? https://www.trekpay.com/view_message.asp . The very first thing it says is:
IMPORTANT CHANGE IN HANDLING PAYOUTS TO PAYPAL (Read about it in the FAQ). Be sure to check out their FAQ: https://www.trekpay.com/viewfaq.asp . I might as well copy and paste that too.. lol.
When and how do I get paid?
Effective policy change: Oct 28 2009
Trek is implementing a 2 week pending period for payouts to PayPal.
The reason we are implementing this pending stage is to allow PayPal enough time to clear payments from our paying Clients. Trek has been paying out commissions on purchases and later being notified by PayPal that payments received were fraudulent, resulting in losses to our business. PayPal has suggested that we place a 2 week hold on payout requests to minimize this problem.
Trek will still make payout runs once per week but members must wait the 2 week holding period before they get the monies sent.
Once each week Trek will run a payout. This will occur sometime between Tuesday-Thursday.
Check your account for the amount of money. When you have $5.50 or more then a request for payout to PayPal option will appear. Make sure you have inserted your PayPal email address or your payout cannot be processed. Once we receive the payout request the monies will be deposited into your PayPal account after the 2 week holding period.
There you see it. TrekPay is NOT turning into a scam. They simply changed their payment process. You'll receive your money soon. Hang in there.

Hi, Recently Treckpay has changed the policy for the payout through paypal and they have said that it will take 2 weeks to process the payments. I am also waiting for my payment from two weeks now and expecting the amount by this Thrusday. It is showing me that payout processed earlier it was showing payout requested. So just check your account and see what it is telling and the date on which the payout processed is updated, after seven days you should get the amount. So I believe tomorrow we should get the requested amount from Trekpay. Lets hope for the best.

Its nice to hear from you guys that you are already waiting for your first payment from trekpay and hopefully soon you will get paid. Trekpay is a legit site though they don't have forum and many members can assure you that about these site. I am also a member but still didn't reached my minimum payment I hope soon I would be paid also and a week more to go complete it.

Trekpay just paid me. Are you sure it was already 2 weeks? Try to wait a couple of days. If you don't receive the payment yet, I think you better send them a support ticket. Contact them... They are answering all our quieries. I have tried contacting them several times already and receive response to them.
I believe, they arer not turning into scam... They are paying.

@ Kashers
The points get converted into money value every week. Wait for the week to end. You will find the cash balance in your account increase. Your points will automatically be replaced by dollars at the end of the week.
200 points normally make to $0.40
This may change if you have many refferals working for you.
Also I would like to tell you that I have got paid by TrekPay so they are very genuine. I reieved $5.53 in PayPal and I am very happy for that.

Hi murtuza89! It is nice to hear from you that you got your $5.53 cashout request already! Truly trekpay is paying and a legit site. The earnings is profit sharing, so there is not definite and exact coversion computation for the points...
Have a nice day always!

No it is not compulsary to have a Paypal account verified. I myself have an unverified account and still I recieved my payment.
Also there is no need of the tax information.
it took me approximately 2 months without any refferals to reach cashout.
I think they pay nor if you have refferals.
Happy Mylotting!

I didnt get any such verfication message. I requested payout and after 2 weeks I got the payment in my unverified paypal account.
I dont think so they require any such 1$ verification from now.
Even I had heard of this verification thing and also that they require Tax ID, but luckily they didn't ask me for any such things.
Happy Mylotting!

Trekpay, had already announced about a month back, that they will have a cooling period of two weeks, so you have to wait for atleast two weeks, before your payment is sent. I have also reached my first payout only today, and hope to receive the payment in two weeks.

I am not sure. I did receive payment twice from Trekpay. My dad's payment hasn't arrived to his account yet. He requested the payment one week ago. In the past the payment will arrive to your account within one week. Now after reading your discussion, I am also worried about it. Why earning websites are becoming scams at the end? Perhaps you shall wait for a few days or just write to Trekpay admin to see what's going on. Good luck!
I love China

I got paid by TrekPay and I can assure you that they are Legit. I just got payment in my account the next day when I posted this discussion. As far as your Dad's case is concerned, I think you should contact the Admin of TrekPay and check with them if there are any issues with the payment.
Happy MyLotting!

No, they aren't a scam as like the one user said, it is on the faqs page about it. They are doing this so that we can be paid. I have been paid 5 times by them, and will be reaching payout this week, as I have $5 in here, so only need $.50, and that shouldn't be hard to get as I am close to 200 credits. I was a little apprehensive when I first stared with them, but once I got my first payment, I was really happy that they do pay, as it is another good site that I intend to stay with. Just hang in there and you will get your money. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Hi murtuza89,
Ya recently Trekpay changed their terms,
You have to wait for 2 weeks after they approve your payout.
They approve payments weekly, I think they approve on Thursday's.
I got paid recently(last week Thursday) from them.
So you can expect the payouts on Thursdays.

Did you read the new payment process in the frequently asked questions on the site. They will now hold all payments for two weeks once you request. then you will be paid on the next payment date. So if you requested two weeks ago you should be receiving it shortly.
