I just wanted to let you all know that I hit my $50.00 minimum tonight and asked for my payment. Within ONE HOUR my payment was made to my PayPal account. For you who do now know, ReviewStream is a site where you can make $1.50 per review on various things, or bulk rate, which is 30 cents on things. You just review anything you want. The reviews that get $1.50 are electronics, hotels, appliances, medications. . . things like that. Books, movies, shampoos. . . get the bulk rate. I was a skeptic. Wasn't sure they would really pay me, but they exceeded my expectations and paid immediately upon my asking!

So I was just wondering if you were still a member of this reviewstream and if they were still paying you. Does it cost anything to join? I think I may have to look into it.

It took about 2 months for me to hit the 50 dollar mark, but it could have been much faster. They've changed it a little bit now where you immediately get to know if you got paid 1.50 or bulk rate 30 cents. It seems no matter what I review now, it's only the 30 cent rate.... so, not sure the change benefits the writer anymore!!

RenaeT, thanks for the info. I did check it out yesterday and am going to give it a try. When I first checked it out about a month or so ago the site said they paid anywhere from $1 to $5 per review.

I know. . . I was getting concerned because they seemed to slow way down when publishing my last 10. So I thought maybe they were just going to drag the last 10.00 out so long I'd give up!!

I don't know what the minimum length is, I usually write alot, so they never had to tell me that. I suppose if you write a thorough review, and you know you've covered all the bases, such as, cost, where you bought it, why you like it, what you don't like, what it's made of, ingredients. . . it shouldn't be too short. When you go to the site, read some of the other people's reviews and you'll get the idea.

I worked with it, in the first time i did it and my review always said "my review is too short" so i filled out all the space given and finally i got it.

Well, I wasn't working until a week ago. Now I'm working a temp job. I do eBay, my greeting cards, myLot, and Review Stream. Those definitely keep me in front of the computer! Sometimes I even think my cat gets disgusted with how many hours I sit in this office!! LOL!

Here's what I did to get lots of reveiws that paid the 1.50. I am a real organized person, and I keep all our owners manuals to EVERYTHING we own in a box. I put the box next to my computer and a few times a day, I get out the next owners manual out, read it over, highlight good things and bad things about the product, write my review, give my personal experiences and it's easy! It's just like when you're talking to someone about something you bought and are telling them how you like it or not. when you go to reviewstream, where it says, Find Reviews, just type in Renae . . . then you will see all my reviews I've done to get an idea how I did wrote them.

hi, can I see your scree shot of your payment proof. Because one of my friend was rejected in the last review saying that she copied the content from other place but actually its her own blog. Then she tried to explain but they just banned at the end. So, i would like to see a scree shot of your payment. Once if I can see it then I can justify it as a online earning opportunity in my blog. My blog consists of genuine online earning opportunities with payment proofs. So can I see your payment screen shot?

I wouldn't bother doing review stream anymore. They have changed the way they pay and they rarely pay over 30 cents for anything anymore. So, don't bother unless you don't mind spending 15 mintutes writing something for 30 cents.

This is an old discussion. I just wondered if you are still using the site and have you gotten more payments?

Hi Susie, I haven't been writing reviews much because I'm working again. But, yes, I'm up to 22.00 again, so when I hit $50.00 I should get a payment again. I'll let you know when I do! My goal this weekend is to write 10 reviews.

This sounds very interesting. I've bookmarked the site so I can look at it more later on. I know a friend of mine is going to love this place, she's a writer so she'll have a ball doing reviews of stuff.

I've slowed down too much on my reviews! I need to get back into it. I got a fulltime job and don't have too much extra time these days! It's good, but, I miss doing the reviews.

Congratulations on your payout !!! Since when have you been working to achieve this payout. 50$ is a pretty good amount for only giving reviews. Im going to check it out immediately . Do they pay for referrals???? how long should the review be???? Any limit as such????? Can you please tell me about any other site which pays for things like this please.....
@RenaeT (681)

It took me about a month, but, anyone can do it in a week or so. I just took my time. The do not pay for referrals. The review isn't required to be any length, but it definitely needs to be specific. I mean, if you're reviewing a toothpick, it won't be a long review, but if you are reviewing the new Vista Windows System, you might write 2 pages! It just needs to be quality, specific. I don't know of any other sites like this. I don't even remember how I found www.reviewstream.com.

Well that is great to hear that there is a site that really does pay a half way decent amount for the work they want people to do. I will have to check it out, I have been searching the internet hopelessly trying to find a site which really pays enough that I could make a little extra spending cash. Thanks for the post and I am glad you got your money.

Hi Nelly, I hope you do try it out. It has been really fun to write the reviews and when I do a review, I always learn a lot! If you go to the site and type in Renae where it says Find Reviews, you can read the reviews I have written. God bless you this Easter weekend!

I wrote over 40 reviews,they must be very detailed and factual, so you have to do your homework. Yes, you have to wait for them to approve them. You will get an email anywhere from 24 to 72 hours after submitting your review saying they were published or rejected. Some of the reviews are only worth 30 cents and are considered 'bulk' rate. Those are things like book reviews, movies etc. . . . the ones that pay 1.50 are electronics, appliances. . . big things. Hope that helped.

To the topic starter, thank you for sharing this information with us. What is a realistic amount of money one could expect per month if they reviewed a few items per day? I am looking for a few other avenues to add to increase my month revenues. Thank you again.

Hi Derek, Well, that depends. I got to my 50 bucks in a month and I don't feel like I really worked all that hard for it. I could have gotten to 50 sooner. It's just an individual thing. It depends on the time you have to sit and review. It depends on the quality of your reviews too, if you reviews are short and don't have much detail, you can get rejected or only get bulk rate at 30 cents instead of 1.50. AND, some of the things you review, no matter how detailed, will only get you bulk rate anyway. Those things are books, moveies, food, things like that. if you want to get $1.50 for each one, you have to go for the big stuff like medications, appliances, yard tools, lawn mowers, etc. . . I got all the owners manuals in my house together and did reviews on all the appliances. If you get rejected the first time around, re do it, and mark bulk rate, that way you still might get 30 cents instead of nothing. There you go!

I certainly do not recommend them quite as highly anymore. They have revamped the way they do it and I have yet to get paid more than 30 cents for anything in a long long time. I hardly write a review on there anymore because I got discouraged. I used to be able to get 1.50 for almost anything I wrote about because human beings read them and decided what they would pay. Now, they have it automated and rather than wait a couple days to find out what you get paid, it comes up immediately, but no matter how long the review, how detailed, how excellent, it pays 30 cents. So . . . I have no pointers for you. Sorry.
