It's been a while since I ever really did any serious efforts to make money on the internet. About a year ago I joined ReviewStream and had one of my product reviews approved. I earned 2$ on that review but haven't entered any more reviews since then. I visited the site today and I was glad to see that my 2$ was still in there.
I've decided to put in more effort in ReviewStream and was wondering if some of you guys have actually withdrawn earnings from that site. If you have, please let me know.

I have been earning on RS for nearly a year now. I like RS because for as long as you make decent reviews (not posting or selling them elsewhere) then you get paid for them. It is not that difficult to reach the payout and once you do, RS pays you quickly (72 hours max.)

Well, guess I've got opposing opinions on ReviewStream. Minimum payout is $50 and with the prices they give it's really not that hard to reach. Wonder if I should give it a try again. No other way but to prove to myself if RS is worth the time or not.

I just want to tell you that I received my ___th payment from RS requested this morning. You shoud at least try it and make your first payout. I am sure you will be encouraged to continue. They even know have a systen where other reviewers comment on a review. I got several of these and instead of getting mad, I take the comments seriously to improve the quality of my reviews.

Friend...... please don't waste your time in this ugly website. you will never get more than 5 reviews per month and a max you can earn is $10 per month. I hate this site for it's ultra low earning algorithm. Also I will suggest that you should search the net to learn that they take about a month for delivering the money. So, you will never get a single cent within a month and thus it is disgusting.
Please use myLot search bar or any other search bar to find some good site on your choices.
Enjoy!

RS pays very quickly (max of 72 hours from the moment you request payment). And, you can submit as much reviews as you want. You can, therefore, decide how much you would like to earn in a month (provided that your reviews are approved).

Yes Reviewstream sends earning very quick. In my case, whenever I reach the minimum payout, they send me my earnings right away. I receive it about 4 hours always. Anyway, I agree with sasuke96 too, Reviewstream writers are underpaid. It's so not encouraging to write more for them.

I've been earning money from Reviewstream. My only problem is that I lack time because I have a regular job and can't write very often especially these days. But when I have lots of spare time, I do write reviews for this site. I have actually made a lot of money from this site already despite my limited time. If you want proof then see them here: http://evergreenlily.blogspot.com/2010/09/earn-money-reviewing-products.html

And they pay quickly. They are the fastest in sending money. I could not believe at first. When I request my money, it is credited on my paypal account on the very same date. It is really very satisfying to be paid instantly for my effort. No other site could be as quick as Reviewstream when it comes to payment.

I've been paid twice, working my way towards the third now. Once you reach payout, it's very fast. I got mine within 6 hours I think. The confusing part is of course which reviews they're really interested in. Some times I've had a reveiw rejected because I didn't put "book" in the title, resubmited it with a longer title, everything was OK.
I'd say go for it, but it seems they get more picky once you've submitted many reviews. Which is logical in a way, they want stuff that you have experienced yourself, so they might stop people when they think the reviewers should have run out of things to write about.
They always want reviews on electronics I think, and medicines. For some, like books and movies, I think they nearly always accept them but you only get bulk rate. The worse thing for me is that although there's quite clear guidelines for what is a good review, there's no real guidelines for what you should and shouldn't write about.

I've never heard of that one. I used to visit a similar one called Viewpoints.. but I'm not sure whether they both have the same concept. Viewpoints is for reviewing products and merchandise that you have for other people to read when they are thinking of purchasing the same items... I haven't been on there in quite some time.

I'm going to visit Viewpoints later on and see if it's like ReviewStream. What I like about reviewstream is that you can write reviews about any product, restaurant or services that you've used. You're not limited to products or services that a particular site wants you to review.

I've gotten paid by them three times and I"m on my way to a fourth, I haven't had too many problems with the site. If you accept the bulk rate for your reviews you'll get paid for them.
