I have received a few complaints about the car decal/sticker advertisement website www.stickr.co. Some persons are claiming the website is a scam but is it really?
There are some Facebook advertisements that claim members of stickr.co can make up to $500 per month, but some persons have complained about making less than the amount they pay for membership each month ($9.99) and the one-time membership fee of $19.99.
Here are some of the complaints:
"Hey everyone, I just got a full month's pay. $3.01...""...I just got paid 1.90, they didn’t reimburse me the monthly membership fee...""I did a full month membership as well and just got the payment. A whopping $2.10! ..."
Also, it seems a lot of people are not aware of the reoccurring monthly charge of $9.99, like this person who left this comment:
"...I paid the " one-time fee" (yeah right!) I got the Stickrr, put it on my back window, took a picture and sent it in, then about 3 weeks later I get an additional charge on my debit card for another $9.99. But you see, I paid the premium amount upfront which was $9.99 plus $29.00.They said if I paid this amount I would get all my stickers sent to me free of charge, so I thought it was worth it, but when I saw the additional $9.99 on my bank statement, I sent them an email to request that they return my money because they must have made a mistake.I explained in my email that I was a premium member and should not be charged any further fees. They wrote back and told me that the $9.99 was for the monthly membership fee. I never read anything about a monthly membership fee when I signed up. I sent a reply telling asking them why would I or anyone pay you $9.99 to advertise for you? They never responded..."

I paid a join fee, a double your earnings fee, a monthly membership fee ( promised me they'd waive it if I submitted a photo on the 1st of the month which I did) and a sticker fee with the promise I'd be paid to display an add in the back window of my car. Well, in less than 30 days they reneged on waiving the membership fee so I paid $9.99 to make $10.76. The next month it was $9.99 to make $3.12. I quit today to cut my losses under $100. TOTAL SCAM they make money on their affiliates by ripping them off. STAY AWAY!
I think company is a scam . They only pay you $10 for your campaign then charge you $9 for the service. They give $50-90 dollars worth of coupons but in order to use the coupons you have to spend money at a restaurant. They are not gift cards as advertised. For example they can me 8 $10 dollar off coupons to restaurants in the area where I had to spend $30 to get the $10 off. It's a complete scam.
Scam! SCAM!

Who pays money to “earn” money? Of course it’s a scam! You ever had to pull your wallet out at an interview & fork over cash for a job? NOO!
So if this is a scam how are the still able to stay on line to lure more people do I have to call the bank and cancel my subscription have any one gotten paid and can they really prove it
Sorry, y'all had such a bad experience. I've done everything like instructed and I've been paid like they promised. Not sure what's going wrong with y'all but I am so far a happy client.
