Rewards Review: InstaGC


InstaGC is one of the most popular reward sites. The site offers instant gift cards. I joined InstaGC two months ago after reading a few reviews on the site. I checked it out to see for myself. You earn points by clicking links, completing surveys, doing trials, and watching videos. Points are redeemed for checks and various gift cards.

How to Earn Points

Earning points is very easy at InstaGC. You can earn points by clicking links, completing surveys, doing trials, watching videos, etc. These tasks are very simple to do. You need to simply click links and watch full videos. Surveys only credit when they are fully completed.

Furthermore, trials have the highest payout. Most of them are at least a 100 points (one dollar). I did a trial with Gamefly and it was worth over 300 points. Trial points are locked for 14 days to prevent fraud and you must complete at least 20 days of 30 days trials to receive credit.

However, earning points can be very annoying. Many CPC and videos only appear late at night. This can be very inconvenient depending on your sleep schedule. I've stayed up a few nights to earn points, and it is not always worth it. Earning can also be impossible when the site is experiencing bugs. It is very annoying when it happens because you're missing out on earning money.

Refer Your Friends!

You can also earn points for referring friends. You will 10 points for referring a new member and you will earn 10% for life for every offer they complete. If a referral earns 100 points from an offer, then InstaGC will match it by 10% so you will earn 10 points.

You can refer friends by asking them on social media sites like Facebook and Twitter. You can also start a website and place your links there. The more members you refer the more cash you will earn!

Redeem Your Points For Cash or Gift Cards

Each point is worth one cent. You need 100 points for a dollar. 100 points are very quick to accomplished depending on which offers you prefer to do everyday. Experienced members earn at least 100 points per day!

The site's best quality is the instant gift cards. You don't have to wait days unlike at Swagbucks. I redeemed my points for Amazon gift cards and instantly received them. This is much more convenient then waiting 5 to 10 days to get gift card from Swagbucks.

There are many gift cards to choose from! InstaGC has Amazon, American Eagle, Best Buy, Target, Wal-Mart, and many more gift cards! There is a gift card for everybody! All you need is at least 100 points for a gift card!

In addition, to earning gift cards you can also redeem your points for cash. You can request for a check. It will take up to 10 business days for the check arrived. I requested a checked and received it in seven days. My bank accepted it and the extra cash is sitting in my bank account!

Pros

  • There is a large selection of gift cards.
  • You can earn cash.
  • There are many different options to earn points.
  • Offers are very simple. 
Cons
  • Too many offers only appear late at night.
  • The site experiences bugs from time to time.
  • You may not receive many offers because of your demographics.
  • You do not earn any points if you rejected from a survey. 
The Verdict- Legit! 

InstaGC is totally legit. It is perfect for earning a little bit of extra cash. I've earned cash and gift cards from InstaGC. My gift cards were instantly sent to me and my check arrived in a timely fashion. The site is great for members who have patience and many earning options. However, InstaGC needs to improve on when offers are offered and they should be doing the day instead of late at night. Despite the flaw the site has many good qualities such as instant awards and many offers.
