"Skimlinks is a SCAM Company"

0/5

What do you like best about Skimlinks?

In first few months when your earning is low, they will pay you so that you can put more efforts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Skimlinks?

As a publisher as soon as you start growing your revenue. They suspend your account with illogical reasons. Moreover they block your commissions. No other company blocks earnings which is earned from hard efforts. They have scammed of more than $100K revenue of Publishers.

This is very frustrating, publishers should be aware before wasting their time + efforts with Skimlinks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Skimlinks:

Skimlinks is not recommended. All your time and efforts will be wasted and all your hard money earned will not be paid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Skimlinks solving and how is that benefiting you?

Unable to solve any problem, they don't even reply to your queries and concerns. Their team give generic replies only and after that they stop responding. Specially when it comes to the payment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
