I love Influenster! Not sure why so many people are so upset. It’s definitely NOT a scam. I think it took me a while to get my first item, but now I get them consistently. I’ve received a lot of Vox B... See more

I love reviewing things. It’s super good when you have opportunity to talk about product that did nothing at all, or just did wonders! It’s super easy to use. Haven’t received any boxes yet, because... See more

This company needs to be investigated by the CMA. It is so biased and they seem to offer the same people products over and over again. Age, ethnicity etc plays a part in selection which should not be allowed at all. I do not trust their reviews as it seems people who write good reviews get more products. I am shocked that any brand would allow them to do this

Was a member of Lowe’s Loop program who switched over to Influenster. Not good. To sign up you must disclose way too much information and once accepted, rarely do things go as they say. To get a free product to review is like going to Las Vegas thinking you will go home rich.

After joining the amount of trash emails grew by a large percentage. In short, they are a company to harvest private information. And you know what happens then!

Best legit app that gives you totally free stuff for your honest review. I've received a lot of free stuff and highend expensive items just to tell what I think about it. I started getting stuff right away but be patient bc you have to wait for a campaign you showed interest in. This is real and totally free with no gimmicks. Highly recommend you try it.

Giant data mining scam

Giant data mining scam. The amount of personal info required to get in the queue for possible free products to review, is ridiculous, especially with 9 million users chances are slim to none. The info collected is so detailed and personal its actually ridiculous, but credit to the developer for the idea of enticing people with free products in return for personal info that would never be otherwise available. Even if they give away tons of products, the money truck is still backing up to Influenster.

Bad experience

I posted lots of thorough and detailed reviews with pictures and videos for many products, and never received anything whilst people with much less reviews than me received far more samples. When I reached out to their customer service they were snarky, unsympathetic and unhelpful.

What's with the hate? Way too high expectations from users?

Not sure what's with all the negative reviews. Should you expect this app to furnish your house, or get you all your groceries for you? No. Is it a nice way to get free things by doing nothing but having to review them which takes all but a minute? Yes.

I've used support multiple times for various things. It's bound to happen, because a lot of products are time-based, so you're racing to be the first to claim something. Sometimes there's shipping issues or stock issues because of that. That's to be expected. Every time I've emailed them using the support line, they've gotten back to me within 24 hrs with an actual human response.

Literally the only negative is I had a glitch where an old promotion was still on my page after expiring, which didn't affect anything but the look of the page itself.

There's no reason to not download the app, and see what you can get. Don't trust all the random 1 star reviews.

I've been a product reviewer for over…

I've been a product reviewer for over 10 years now, i have found influenster to be the one of the best for me. They send you an invite for a product on your app page, if you would like to review it you just except it then the product gets posted to you, then you put a honest review on your influenster page about the product after trying and using you need to show the product in photos/video with your written review then you keep it, sometimes there's a chance to get % off products or they put a code on your account and you just go to the place or amazon where they sell the product and use the code they have sent. I found influenster so easy to use and send reviews i have had a few when sending reviews they will not send to the added companies website but they do get the problem sorted quickly, it's very rare it happens so all in all it's one of the best one's out there it definitely helps people find out about the products there thinking of buying first.

I received so many products from this company and the products were very expensive high end products. I got something new every week in exchange for me to tell the truth about what I thought. Unfortunately I was incarcerated and I was unable to review the very last product which was some expensive high end hair color. I live in Gadsden al so I had a lot of people who I reached with the reviews. If you miss a review you miss out but they really are legit and send real products. You just keep active on the site, keep reviewing your own purchases and eventually you are next to test products. I love this company and I saw that people are discouraged but it's truly legit.

Got an invitation to join Influenster due to Walmart program being discontinued. As it turns out, Influenster is a storefront for a personal data mining activity. You start out answering many questions to advance through "tier levels". Ultimately, the want access to your TikTok and Instagram accounts. Until you give access you can not advance to tier 6 and receive products to evaluate, but they still have your data. So Beware!

The new version of Influenster sucks and is biased. s

The new version of Influenster sucks. Within the past 2 months, They sent back (ALl items in received and completed) over 10 items, that I had reviewed within following guidelines and what Influenster asked for, all with 1-3 tasks to be redone. I have had influenster for 7 years never had this happen. They keep asking for more and more from you with posts, videos, social media, and photos. I have a hard time with the videos. Especially with personal products. I wrote 3 bad reviews (which I have done in the past), and within minutes they deleted my posts off their Influenster site/app. Very biased. Customer service is horrible about responding to you about anything. They used to get back within 24 hours. You can never completely "level up" and don't understand the purpose of point of it. They send bad or no tracking numbers at all and incorrect shipping and delivery dates. Its not fun anymore and it should be "honest opinions". Deleted my account.

Not bad.. not good

Not bad. Website is not easy to use. When you click 'write a review', it only tells you to get the app, which is a scam. The search engine is terrible and they have too many duplicates of the products

Hope manufacturers and retails will realise using Influenster only lose them sales!

Quite frankly I take products out of my trolley once I see that the item has lots of influester reviews. I don’t trust this company as I have given several honest reviews and have not been selected for any product trials- maybe I’m too honest. It annoys me now when I find items have mostly people receiving items for free who are more inclined to give five star reviews- I feel like I’m subsidising all these free products so now always look for alternatives that don’t have this.

I've received loads of free products in return for my honest reviews which I have given. I'm UK based and reviews go on Influenster and other websites like supermarket ones. I've had random things like 1 Actimel bottle, a tin of tuna! Then I've had cleaning products, drinks and then lucky enough to get an air fryer and a tumble dryer! You have to be quick as soon as a campaign drops. You also don't get offered everything as a friend and I don't get the same. I have only reviewed things I have used. I haven't been made to review things just to up my profile. It's great for me!!

Can't cancel my account

I signed up for an account today but realized this is not what I wanted so the instructions say to hit the settings 'gear' button to cancel my account in the app but the settings button is dysfunctional. I keep tapping it and nothing happens, restarted my phone still can't tap it so I literally am unable to cancel my account. Help please.

Horrible horrible company

Horrible horrible company. Worked great for me for many years until they were sold to a new company. Now I get nothing. No chances…just crickets. Everyone talking about quick claims but they won’t even send 1. It’s been almost years of absolutely nothing! They send to the same people. Only demographics matter. Over 30? Too bad they won’t send you anything. I am a member of other similar apps and get a few things every year. Do not waste your time. You will get nothing. If you bring it up they will do nothing to help. They do NOT care.

Unprofessional and Completely Disappointing

I was selected by Influenster to participate in a campaign to test the LEGO Oracle Red Bull Racing RB20 F1 set, with the item supposedly shipping on March 13. I tried to check shipping status multiple times, but there was never any information available.

I reached out to Influenster support repeatedly over the course of two months. After being completely ignored, I had to send multiple separate follow-up emails just to get a response. When they finally replied, they told me the item could not be reshipped and that I would be removed from the program because of that.

This entire experience has been incredibly frustrating and deeply unprofessional. I was genuinely excited to be part of this campaign. Instead, I was met with silence, a complete lack of accountability, and ultimately removed from a program for a mistake that was not mine.

Influenster clearly does not value their community members or the trust people place in their platform. If this is how they handle something as simple as shipping a product, I can’t imagine how they manage anything more complex. Extremely disappointing.
