Instant PTR Description

InstantPTR is a ‘get paid to click’ site. The site claims they pay out members fast and they have numerous partners all over the world. InstantPTR pays out $10 per paid emails and $5 per banner clicks. Members can upgrade to a premium member in order to double earnings and receive more paid emails.

Instant PTR Detailed Overview

InstantPTR is another site that promises you high earnings for little effort. The site promises $10 for reading one email, which is hard to believe as most legitimate sites pay out 1-2 cents per email. The payout is listed at $10,000 USD which is also an over-inflated payout rate.

There is a $100 sign up bonus, and you are sent 5-10 emails per month. You also can click on advertiser’s banners while you wait for the emails. Even with the high earnings, it can take 10 months or more in order to reach the payout limit of $10,000.

Members that upgrade to premium are given no payout limits, double the earnings, no taxes, $100 in earnings on new referrals, up to 3 levels of referral downlines and 100 active referrals put in your downline. Obviously the advantages of upgrading are obvious, but the problem is that InstantPTR is a total scam.

The site states they pay out within 48 hours and you can get paid by check, Liberty Reserve, Paypal, Vista, Moneybookers or AlertPay. When you actually do reach the payout and ask for a payment request, they never respond to your email and will never send you payment.

The real danger is that some people are spending $199 to upgrade to the premium membership because the earning advantages outweigh the standard free membership. After you find out the site is a scam and request a refund, you will never receive one.

Instant PTR Reputation

In conclusion, you should avoid InstantPTR at all costs. While this site is not as well known as others, there are enough reports of users not getting their earnings and getting scammed out of the upgrade fee. There are real ‘get paid to’ sites that payout, but these sites usually pay you 1-2 cents per email. You can find a list of these sites and survey sites at IMReportCard.

My experience: SCAM

I signed up to this site with a skeptical opinion. It was too good to be true. About 10$ for one e-mail? I realized that it is 100% scam when I reached 10,000$ (with my referrals of course) and they banned me from their site. If you don't want to waste your time, don't sign-up to this website. If you don't believe, think which legitimate site would pay you 10$ for only one e-mail? It's ridiculous.

100% Pure Scam

Instant PTR gave me nothing but stress of wasting useful time! Clicked (read: wasted time) for 3 months for the 10,000 and till today I have not received a penny from them! They are never gonna pay! Hope nobody in the future will get involved with scam sites like Instant PTR, because they just are a waste of time and nerves.

100 % Scam

When I subscribed to Instant PTR, I knew it was a scam despite the payment proof, because they paid so much money per click and per mail... too much even. But, I tried it regardless with a lot of pessimism. I clicked on the ads and I read the mail, and 3 months later I reached the payout... and I've never been paid, as expected. So it's a scam, don't wast your time !

The Verdict... SCAM!

I joined this program 2 months ago. All of the scam alarms were going off, but I thought I would give them a chance because they had payment proofs on their site. They paid $10 per email and $5 per paid to click. I reached payout in 2 months which is $10,000 and well as we all know I never received my payment. I messaged the administrators about my payment with no response. And I still haven't received my payment and I'm really not looking for it anymore. I didn't lose anything but a couple of minutes of my time. Steer clear from this site.

A Complete Scam!

I knew that this site would be a scam before I even signed up about a year ago. But I figured it would be fun just to watch the money rack up in my account and there was no harm in trying to get a payout, it would be amazing if they did pay. The reality is though is that I never reached payout limit because it would take forever! They don't send out many ads at all and the paid to click banners are sparse. Because of this I found that it wasn't even fun, as my fake earnings weren't adding up very fast. I just hope nobody upgrades at this site as I have heard of many people upgrading, you will lose your money! This site is a scam! Stay away and join a legitimate site that pays actual money.

The Verdict Is In

Scam! I signed up just to see what this PTR has to offer. After browsing around, I INSTANT-LY knew this site is nothing but a waste of time. I canceled my account the same week I signed up. Minimum payment of $10,000? Come on people! I have been in the PTR industry for a while now and for a site to payout that much each time as a MINIMUM is absurd! What a joke! An F grade from me!

Nothing but a huge waste of time

Stupidity is what caused me to join this site. When I saw the payout of $10,000 I thought cool. Yeah right. I clicked on links and made out like a bandit every day. I earned $70 per day and should have known. When I reached payout, I of course didn't get it. Am I surprised? Not in the least. I did my part and contacted admin but of course no response. This site reminds me of rolex-mails but this site went to more extremes to try and get members to upgrade. Sites like this should not even be allowed to take up space on the internet. I am also glad that I didn't get any referrals. I knew better than to try and promote this site. Stay far away from this site. It is a total scam.

Another one of those "too good to be true" sites

This site is just another one that steals your money, time, and attention. I thought it would be worth clicking so many ads due to the payout. On a forum I regularly visit, many people were raving about how awesome this site was. I thought this site could be trusted, but I was definitely wrong, and so were the people who thought it was great. I bought 50 referrals for $25, and I reached the $10,000 payout faster than I expected to. Unfortunately, I never received my payment, and I never got a reply after I contacted support. They’re full of lies and they’re a total scam. Don’t even bother visiting this site.

Not worth it

I still don't know why I even signed up for this site. I mean it sounded to good to be true. After signing up I received a $100 sign up bonus, which is crazy. I then began clicking on the ads and and found out that they were paying me $5 for each 10 second ad. I just knew that they were a scam. I made $60 in 1 minute. The cashout level is $10,000. I wouldn't recommend this site to anyone, because you will not make any money only the owner of the site will make some. I have not reached the cashout level yet, nor do I plan too because I know I won't get paid. If you decide to join then you will get on average 6 ads per day. The most I ever received was 6 and the least that I have received was 4. I'm going to cancel my account with them today, I should have done it sooner.

If it seems to good to be true

I have "earned" over $40,000, mostly due to a big downline, and I am still unable to cash out even though the payout level is $10,000. I have emailed the admin (if there actually is one) 3 times with no response. I even threatened and (followed through) saying that I would cry SCAM on every forum I know such as this. Still no response. Stay far, far away.

Don't try this at all! Worst Site!

This site is a scam! You can automatically tell by the 100 dollar sign-up, and 10,000 dollar minimum payout. I tried this site, until I heard from around 10 of my friends say they tried payout and they haven't been paid. Besides, who would pay 10 dollars just to read an email. That is ridiculous. Just don't even try this site. Worst Site Ever!

Also, the maker of the website must have been stupid, because even if it were not to be a scam, he would have gone bankrupt after 3 payouts! Money doesn't grow on trees!

Utter Waste Of Time

The only reason I tried this site is to show people that they are scam. Yes, I seem to have acquired that habit lately mainly because of IMRC. They stink of scam from the get-go. How did I know? Just take that $100 sign up bonus and $10,000 minimum payout. Plus the incredible $10 per email read payment. PLUS the tons of negative comments about them online. And NO credible payment proofs. I mean seriously. You'd think people would steer away like it was the great plague. Think of it. If pay-to sites who pay (or not at all) their members meager cents turn out to be a scam, why should this site be any different, considering that we're talking about LOTS of money here?

So my story is, I signed up for the site, convinced several friends to join under me so I can reach payout faster and prove in no time that this is what I suspected it to be. There wasn't a forum, but I was not surprised. Any decent site that intends to pay their members should have a forum where people can discuss their experiences and share their payment proofs to each other. I stayed as a free member, as $199 is much too big a money for me just to prove that a site is a scam. But because I had referrals, I reached payout in a couple of months. I requested payout once I reached the minimum, not really expecting that they'd pay, and boy did they fulfill my expectations. It's been three months since I requested and I haven't heard from them. $10,300 in my Instant PTR account, just numbers on my screen.

But maybe that's the problem. People are drawn in by promises of lots of money. What with the global economy, I guess it's kind of easy to just believe in a site like Instant PTR, promising you of super easy money by sweating off virtually nothing. But sites like this also open the eyes of the public. I know this sounds too cliche by now, but it still pays to keep in mind that if it's too good to be true then it probably is. And with Instant PTR, it IS too good to be true. If I can give a grade lower than F, I'd definitely give it to Instant PTR.

They will not pay you

The reason why I joined is because I really needed the extra money. They make it very appealing with the $100 sign up bonus. I have never seen a sign up bonus that high before. I joined and it is set up as a normal paid to click website. You even earn money from your referrals. I had 6 referrals, and I reached payout in about 3 months. I went to request my money and right now it's been pending for well over 2 months. If you contact support you will never receive a reply. I am happy that I never upgraded my membership to view useless ads. They are after your money to upgrade, so please don't bother and warn your friends, family and your referrals to please stop clicking those emails.

Why do people even bother with scamming others?

I joined Instant PTR as a Standard Member hoping to make extra money, and it was going to be a lot of extra money until I realized I was not going to receive my money after a month of waiting for my payment.

I received $100 USD just for signing up. At first I thought this was a little too much, but then I thought it shouldn't be that hard to reach the minimum cash out amount, so I decided to work on the website for about 3 weeks. The cash out minimum is $10,000 USD.

I read the paid emails, this is because the emails weren't very long and I would make $10 for a pretty short email. I also had 5 referrals, and just for the referrals I made $10 USD for each referral.

After about 3 weeks of work, I had a balance of $10,010 and decided to cash out. After 1 month of waiting, my cash out is still pending, and it will always stay that way. Never trust this website, always do your research on Google before signing up to scams or you will fall into the same trap many other people had fallen into.

Don't go there

I did join this one as well awhile back, and I'm sad to say that this one is also another time waster. It's true that sometimes, curiosity kills the cat.

My experience here was not so good for me. I joined and thinking that I'd receive payout when it came time to cashout was a mistake. I managed to reach payout pretty fast, but, when it came time to cashout I never received it. I emailed to find out what the deal was and not one reply was received! I was not only upset, but I was cheated.

I only like the layout, it's professional, and it makes the site seem legitimate. I don't like that this site is still around. Whatever you do, please don't go there!

100% Scam!

If you're hoping to make extra money online, Intant PTR is not the answer. I'm a free member of InstantPTR.com. I joined because I was so amazed by the $100 start up bonus. I only have 3 active referrals clicking for me and that's why it took me almost 5 months to reach the $10,000 minimum payout. I don't visit the site everyday because I was too busy with my day job. I even told myself that if I get that money I would surely be quitting my job and just do clicking for this site. I even considered the thought of upgrading so that there will be no payout limit for me. BUT when I requested my money, I never got it. I know I only have to wait for 30 Days to get my money, but it's been almost 3 months and still no money. I sent them 7 emails through their support, but never got an answer. Don't waste your time.

Won't Pay At All

This is another ptc site that I tried when I first started with otc sites. The prospect of making a lot of money for doing something as simple as clicking was extremely appealing. I learned quickly that this site is nothing more that a scam. I clicked for about 6 months, finally reached the minimum payout level and requested payment. A payment that even now, over a year later, I have never received. I am glad that I never attempted to upgrade at this site, I would have lost not only time, but a lot of money too. I recommend that everyone stay away from this site. It is not worth your valuable time.

Like most this PTR is also a waste

Like most PTC/PTR sites I have been to with, high amounts per click do not pay and certainly this one does not too. I had been a member of this site when I was just starting out in the PTC business when I joined this site. Worked a couple of months and then when I finally reached the whopping $10,000 mark, a cry of joy went to the heavens, but when I requested my payout I was denied it and was framed for cheating.

Guys who wanna join, join but I recommend you guys staying miles away from this site.

Do not bother with Instant PTR

Again, from my numerous encounters with different PTC sites, Instant PTR was one of the sites that I joined when I first started out trying to make some money online. Although I was thinking it was too good to be true to be paid out $10,000, I went ahead anyway, thinking there really wasn't anything to lose since I'm not going to pay anything anyway. So I clicked and clicked for a couple of months. I didn't have any referrals, and I wasn't able to log in to the site everyday so it took me over a couple of months to be able to reach the payout minimum. I finally reached over the $10,000 mark, and I tried to request for payout. Well, it has been almost a month now and I still have not gotten any response. Even when I tried to contact their admin or support, I didn't get any response at all! Not even an acknowledgment of my complaint. This for me is clearly a scam site. They won't even bother responding, so why bother visiting their site? Stay away from this site! It's a complete waste of time and effort. Never again should we be blinded by sites like these who offer outrageously high payouts for just clicking on ads or reading emails. If it's too good to be true, it most probably is.

Instant PTR is a waste of time

I signed up for Instant PTR thinking that it was one of the best sites I had ever came across. I had never seen a site that promised it's members $ per email that they read and $5 per ad. I signed up Immediately after hearing about Instant PTR and began receiving email. I received about 8 to 10 emails per month. My money was adding up pretty fast and I was excited to be getting closer to the $10,000 payout. During my membership with Instant PTR I read some bad comments with people claiming they never got paid. I decided not to upgrade my membership until I received my first payment, just in case they were a scam. Of course I never received my payment. I would not recommend Instant PTR to anyone.
