Current Rewards: Offline Music Reviews

by DomA658

I would give it 0 stars if I could. While CurrentRewards allows the opportunity for people to redeem gift cards, I would definitely warn future users that this developer is possibly phishing your information to sell your data when they don’t need you anymore.

Had it for a couple of months, and never got to the point of redeeming my points. Today, I went on CurrentRewards to click on a video ad, and I got an account suspension. The page told me to contact support, and I did. It went from 0 to 100, and instead of a suspension it went to say my account was BANNED and CLOSED for violating rules. You contact support and they accuse you of violating rules that you clearly didn’t. You ask them what specific rule and there’s silence. Don’t waste your time.

People have been banned in the last couple of days, without a specific reason. I believe it’s because they know that they can’t afford you. There are better beer money apps out there, and ignore the fake bot apology that they are gonna post under this review to look better.

I’m literally going to go delete CurrentRewards like it’s so annoying. At first the CurrentRewards was easy to use and I got 1000 points or so after listening for 30 minutes just like CurrentRewards said but after I Listen for 30 minutes or more I only get less than 100 points. I’ve been trying to get points for the past few weeks but it doesn’t give me points for any songs I listen to. I even made sure that I watched the ad before I started listening. so it should’ve been given. I wasn't idle or afk from my device and I never got a notification telling me that it stopped earning. (I even checked if I have notifications on and I do!) after every 30 minutes or an hour I go check for points and I didn’t even get points so I will be deleting CurrentRewards there’s no point of having on my phone if I can’t even get close to 10 dollar gift card.

I found CurrentRewards while looking for an app to get money, and I thought it was going to be great! The ad said $20 per hour, but some reviews said they only got $4 per hour. So I thought, that’s something, right? I’ll be getting over $20 in a day? Right? Wrong. Been listening for about 4 hours now and I don’t even have a dollar. It’s sort of odd how a dollar is around 6000 points while $4 is 9000.. I feel like the dollar price should be lowered and that you should get more money per song. You only get around 7-15 points per song, which is nothing compared to what I was promised. That’s the reason I took away 2 stars. Yup. Just for not giving many points. The reason why I took away another star is because there is no search bar to search for music. I’m stuck listening to genres that I like but half the songs in the genre I never heard of or are pretty bad. If all of these were fixed, I would gladly give a 5 star rating.

Update: It says I have 2 USD (2000 points) but I can’t even buy a dollar worth of gift cards!

The devs promise but do not deliver. CurrentRewards claims that you can redeem your points for gift cards, but I don’t see that option. The only redeem options are for products that I probably would not buy if given the money to buy them. CurrentRewards also claims to have the option to earn while watching video advertisements, which I wouldn’t mind doing except that the video earning method doesn’t exist. There is so much false advertising from CurrentRewards that I’m not even sure I can redeem products and actually receive the product. I’ll change this review and make it five stars when the devs can tell me how to access these features without giving them personal information about myself. If they cannot help me, I will notify my 85,000+ Twitter followers that CurrentRewards is likely a scam due to false advertising and unresponsive support, and I will notify many scam-checker and scam-catcher sites that I have connections with to tell them how much false advertising is in CurrentRewards.

It’s legit! I’ve only cashed out once. I keep deleting it because I can’t keep it off of my Lock Screen & weather I’m listening to music on it or not it would make my phones battery die crazy fast and it would get hot along with freezing up a little here and there. I just wish you could get the cash the same day to at you cash out! Also wish that you wouldn’t have to download the games on the phone, I believe you should be able to just be able to play the right o CurrentRewards ! Just make an account to save your progress! So we can save space on our phones!! Make it to where it doesn’t take so long to reach your goal to whatever you had selected. 1 last thing..add cash app & a few other banking apps to pick from instead of just PayPal! Please and thank you!!! Whenever y’all can do this I will definitely rate y’all 5 stars!!!

I’ve had CurrentRewards maybe a month or more? In the beginning I’d get 8-15 points per song but then the points per song began to decrease as time went along. I decided to invest in their bonus bucks which is apparently supposed to give 50% more & last for 30 days per bonus buck & it was great in the beginning. I was back to getting 10+ points per song but after around 10 days with them I was once again, even with the bonus bucks still active, getting lower points per song than ever. Now I only get 1-4 points per song with 14 days of my bonus bucks left. On the occasion I’ll get a song worth 5. Other than the extremely slow & decrease in points within such a short span of time, it’s a great app to play music. I wish you could look up stations or artists to listen to but i’ve found some stations I like after a while.

I’ve been on CurrentRewards for a bit now, earned maybe $30 overall. Nice bit of spare cash on occasion, but it’s got some annoying issues. First off, when looking to earn points from listening to music, you have to be actively using your device, otherwise CurrentRewards decides you’ve been inactive. Second, every time this happens you have to watch a video to start earning points again. This would normally be fine, but sometimes there are no videos available for weeks, thus you’re stuck not earning points. Thirdly, CurrentRewards doesn’t always count all of the songs you’ve heard towards points. You might be listening for an hour and only two of the 15 songs you’ve heard gain you money.

Overall, CurrentRewards is a lot like finding a $5 bill in the street one month. Fun random windfall, but you aren’t getting a ton of cash from this.

But there’s no way to earn 20 dollars in a day like it says JUST by listening to music. It would take 72+ hours of just straight music in order to do that. There’s opportunities to get more via offers and surveys but many need sign ups. Honestly this is a good way to get points overtime, but you need like 29,500 points to get a 20 dollar card for PlayStation. And each song will give you between 7 to 17 points at a time. I’ve used this all day, and I have over 1,000 points. So take that what you will. Would be better if we earned way more points per song. Or at least every 5 songs or something we get 300 points but honestly don’t download this if you need money right way, but if you’re interested in just grinding points for listening to music, yeah it’s pretty dope. Gonna keep at this till I get the PlayStation card and a Sephora card, and we’ll see. But I’ll let y’all know if it’s really worth it.

I love music, so the concept of earning points/$ while I’m listening sounds like a win-win. However, the points earning process is very slow, and the points earning is unreliable. There have been several instances where I’ve listened for 30+ minutes without anything showing in my earning or points history, and it does not seem to be related to me not responding to an ad or other notification. Also, I have yet to figure out how to link my PayPal account, despite the fact that this is supposedly an option. There are currently only 4 options of items for me to purchase via CurrentRewards , none of which I’m interested in purchasing, and the cheapest one is around 17,000 points…which will take months of everyday listening to achieve, at the rate at which points are unreliability awarded. Definitely room for improvement, but otherwise it’s just another radio station hosting app.

I’ve been using CurrentRewards for probably six months, and it’s been pretty good it does take forever to get any points but I kind of expect that, anyways to my point I spent probably 100+ hours listening to music and I have 5770 points(which equals a little less than a dollar) so if you don’t know how CurrentRewards works, about every 30 minutes to an hour it tells you to watch an ad so that you can keep on earning points, if you don’t watch the ad you can still hear music but you will not get points. Everything was fine I was just listening to music and it said I had to watch an ad to keep on earning ,which was completely fine so I tried to watch an ad but it says there aren’t any available and I’ve tried for a week. and I feel like its not gonna let me watch any more ads. Which means I can’t earn any more points so I can’t even redeem a dollar. Which is really annoying I really hope they fix this. Also another complaint I have, is that you should be able to earn points faster because I’ve been listening to music for maybe five or six months(100 hours plus and listening )and I can’t even redeem a dollar yet

I gave this a 3 star because it was really great at the beginning. I had no problems except for how the points stopped being added and how there are no new surveys to gain more points. First of all, once I hit 2,000 points, CurrentRewards stopped giving points when I played music. I even updated CurrentRewards because they said that it fixed some problems, but I don’t see an improvement. Second, I usually open CurrentRewards daily and look for available surveys. However, they always say that there are none available and there would be new ones tomorrow. In addition to that point, the artist stations are mostly random stations with the artist’s song playing, and then the next song a random song from who knows where. Most of the times I use the artist station, I end up listening to Spanish/French music. I think it’d be a great idea to fix some of these small details because they can really help people enjoy CurrentRewards more. Thank you.

Took me a minute to understand how to start earning coins and track my listening. I was on CurrentRewards for over an hour prior to understanding what to do. Not intuitive at all. Most people are coming to CurrentRewards for the rewards so make it easier.
CurrentRewards will close out unexpectedly when trying to load surveys. For those who don’t know, you can take surveys while listening to earn extra coins.
I think there should be a profile option to set preferences there; find out how many coins you have, options on spending those coins, ways to earn more, update music preferences. As it is now, there is no profile option and you have to click multiple locations to find all of the above.
Still trying to figure out how to trade-in coins for gift cards. CurrentRewards doesn’t actually “payout” cash, they reward with gift cards.
Overall not bad, but as I said, needs some work for sure.

by Infamous JessK

I give CurrentRewards 3 stars because it takes sooooo long to be able to accumulate money from the points. You can be listening to the music for about 4 hours and you’ll get nothing but about $2. The money also doesn’t convert to other apps like PayPal or Cashapp. It never shows up in your account but only on CurrentRewards . Also, it’s pretty hard to find a specific station for certain artist. Artist like Post Malone don’t really have their own station like Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift. And if they do it takes forever to find it which kind of ruins the experience of listening to the music. You also can’t skip one particular song. If you try to skip a song it ends up skipping the entire station. You also can’t see what song is going to play next or have a choice in how u organize the songs to be able to listen to it freely and enjoy it. I’d love to give CurrentRewards 5 stars but there is evidently many things that could use improvement in CurrentRewards .

I just got CurrentRewards yesterday and I got a good bit of points since then and I’m having a good time. If this stuff is actually legit and I get money from it then I’m all in. I’m 16 and shouldn’t really be trusting stuff like this but I wanna save up money. I’m trying to find more good apps like this. I recommend it because so far it’s pretty good. Only problem is it literally takes over your lock screen. For me I tried to turn my phone off and it came back on and played ads. That’s really the only bad thing about CurrentRewards so far. I got it on my iPad so I don’t have to deal with not having my lock screen anymore lol. If the people who run CurrentRewards see this please fix that so I can get it on my phone again

CurrentRewards has provided a really good format on how to earn and redeem points. Unlike other apps, this one actually allows you to redeem prizes that it offers (aka $$$, AirPods when available, etc.). The points granted per song is not a lot sometimes but if you just keep on being both patient and persistent with earning points, then you will be assured to get the reward you want without fail. I really enjoy CurrentRewards because I can put my phone on any station that fits my mood and I won’t have to look at it until maybe 5 hours, and it would gather point throughout the time. The small downside is that when CurrentRewards is not on the foreground you’d have a 30 min time limit before you have to check back in. If not then you stop earning points until you watch an advertisement. Even so, a 30 second ad to listen and earn points is completely worth it. Highly recommend it!!

by A Pizza Hut CSR Guy

The ad looks deceiving about an hr of music for $20 but I only got $4 then when I’m about to listen to music after my morning shift…I got suspended maybe banned for no reason…how & why? I already contact support. Most likely take forever or will never reply back…I know because I’m in Customer Service/Support. Please explain why I’m suspended/banned or no choice to complain by starting a petition so government officials will punish current music.

Update
Turns out it was temporary suspension, finally playing music. That was fast too. Maybe they realized they suspended a csr listener. Weird to receive a suspension because I’m not in school or college lol. I guess it was using VPNs while not listening to Current at the time. At least I’m free to login to hear my music. Thanks Current CSRs for the releasing my acct suspension. Upgraded from 1 star to 4 stars. Reason for 4 stars…I wish Current has options to looking up songs, maybe that will be including on future updates…if it did…then it will be 5 stars

by SlickRickD

February 3, 2021 I have been using CurrentRewards for about four months now and at first I was spectacle about being able to earn real US currency I just listen to music but as time went by I saw that that they don’t just get money out of thin air they play popular good looking music andAnd you don’t have to keep watching a whole bunch of commercials like most ads it’s one commercial every two hours and it’s pretty reasonable they have all sorts of prizes they have surveys games great ways for you to make money I would highly recommend you trying this out about and the more you use it the more money you make them in the more money you make you great at

by Jenni11012

So far I am absolutely loving CurrentRewards!! This is the first time I’ve encountered an app as legit as this one. Usually I’m met with apps that say that all you have to do is so-and-so when you download it, and then they reveal that you need to jump through hoops just earn points. Like what? I don’t even know how they manage to stay afloat, probably ads, who knows. But Current Music actually gives you the points they said they would. No wondering how long it will take for your points to come in, no tricks, nothing! I’m so glad I found CurrentRewards. Plus you get to listen to music genres YOU want :) what’s not to like? I hope you guys stay this way forever, what you’re doing is great and more apps could learn from you.

by Aceboogie60653

First off I’d like to say thanks to whoever came up with this. My girl & I listen to music all the time and pay for it so we love the fact we can earn coins for cash for doing what we already do anyway. I spend at least 8-9 a day listening to music so I accumulate points fast and my girl has hers running for at least 12 hours a day.

All these people complaining about the time that it takes to accumulate points need to re-think there life goals lol. Your literally getting paid to do absolutely nothing but listen to music. You can even stack residuals getting referrals. You gain 500 points per referral and then 5% of everything your referral makes for life. Sounds to good to me, STOP COMPLAINING PEOPLE, if it’s not enough money go get a job.

I have been a faithful participant with current for almost 2 months until now. I found my account suspended for fraudulent activity. I didn’t feel I did anything wrong. I read over the rules and terms again and came across what I did. I don’t remember reading that and I would never have abused it if I knew. You are not to use more than one device at a time and yes I had done that watching the videos. Now my question to Current is if I make sure I have Current on only one device can I use CurrentRewards again?? I promise I’m one that knows better and that will not happen again. Please don’t permanently close my account. Also I did redeem a couple of days before this happened and it’s now been 5 days. I will be getting my redemption right? It was the $10 one.

by Sksmiles77

in the latest update a new feature was added every few minutes a popup comes up asking me if i am still listening and earning has stopped. This is annoying yes i am listening to music i should not have to keep CurrentRewards on my screen and drain my battery to earn points. If i am driving listening to music i should not take my eyes off road to say yes i am listening. It now pops up on my watch to ask me. Turn this off!

Update: getting generic response from several messages sent. The disabling needs to be fixed or taken off!!! I have app open and it still asks me if i am listening watch ad and then still disables. Also, sometimes there is no ad loaded so disables. Once disabled it won't restart earning have to uninstall reinstall app to get started again

In the “share with friends” part of this, it accessed my contacts, with me thinking I’d be able to select a few people and it would just send to them, but no it sent a text to ALL of my contacts with my full name in it saying, “hey, (recipient), (me) sent you money through current. Check it out etc.” All contacts including people I haven’t talked to in years and people I had no intention of talking to. Now everyone thinks I’m doing some sketchy stuff by sending them some money with some app they have never heard of before. This has been extremely embarrassing. I know exactly what they are trying to do and I was stupid enough to fall for it. Download CurrentRewards if you want fake money and your privacy obliterated.

by BLARFUNGAR

Downloaded CurrentRewards off an ad saying you’ll “earn free money for listening to music”. I thought it was total BS but gave it a shot anyway. You don’t get “paid” by using CurrentRewards at all, it “pays” you for every person you get to download CurrentRewards . So I followed along and I sent invites to a few people and told them to just download it as a test. Well it shows that you have a balance of how much you’ve earned, but there is no way to redeem it. I searched the entire app, and there is nothing but the media, search, and the invite friends tabs. I tried tapping everything just to see if it was a button, but had zero luck.
I decided not to even bother using CurrentRewards for its purpose as a media platform. I would have given it a shot, but it is just a predator of false advertising. I will not support an app that relies on such desperate ways to get people to download it, and can not uphold its promises.

by Dontbesillu

The ad that got me to download CurrentRewards was the fact that it said you could earn points by streaming music in CurrentRewards that then turn to actual cash once you’ve FINALLY earned enough. However it seems like it’s one of those apps that make you take surveys and download other apps to earn points. And there is a page in CurrentRewards that lets you listen to music but it says nothing about earning points while doing so.. disappointing to say the least. I just downloaded it too so I may be overlooking something but idk... I’m pretty sure the ad was just to grab attention to get downloads. 🤷🏻‍♂️

by Kingdom Hearts Fanboy

This is a great app you can listen to music and earn money at the same time I like Listening the country music on there And I love earning money also And they should add some PayPal and other payment methods but overall they’re doing good so far I’m glad I don’t have an inactive thing anymore but overall you should give CurrentRewards a try because I know it’s the best way to get paid listen to music and also just be sure to keep making CurrentRewards great

by Anika’s IPhone

I love CurrentRewards , quick to earn. I do have problems with the music suddenly stopping. I don’t know if it was my car or CurrentRewards but it can be annoying and inconvenient. Also the wifi can be an issue which I don’t understand being that this is connecting to radio, can that be fixed or are these online stations? Thank you! Love the variety of stations, prizes are great, maybe have an option where we can take out money like directly convert your points to moola. The ads do not give you any money thoufh, they do not work and some opportunities do not reload quick enough.

by 224536

I live the fact that I can access my other music media’s inside CurrentRewards that is my favorite feature. I definitely think that once there is an actual use for the tokens we earn in CurrentRewards and more ways to earn them then I think CurrentRewards will take off over all it’s a great app and I’m glad I found it. Plenty of music I mean and endless supply so go ahead and download CurrentRewards if your reading this because they have the potential to make this an app your gonna have to pay for wich would be awesome

by Mrs. Wheeler05

I downloaded CurrentRewards on January 16, 2019 so far I love it I have been able to play all of my favorite songs with absolutely no interruptions from ads at all. I’m just trying to figure out how do you get paid I see that share button and I’m assuming once someone downloads that you earn five dollars but how do you spend the five dollars and how do you transfer into your bank account. I could get thousands of people to download CurrentRewards but I want to see how you get paid first

by Ddddwwwwddd

So CurrentRewards is great and you can redeem points for gift cards. The problem is the amount of coins you need to redeem anything keeps going up. Like I know that the developers need to get paid but this makes me mad!!! Every time I get close the push the price way up.😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 that how I feel. Still it’s a good app and you should get it. I gave it 2 stars because it keeps changing the prices of the gift cards😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😡😡😡😡😡😡🍌

Also, CurrentRewards needs more baking. A lot more

by Chevydad6

I have used CurrentRewards for one month to see how it was and if it was legitimate, it sure is! They add more way to earn points also! Customer service is great also if you have any issues. I am so thankful to current cash being a app that gives you all in one earning ability of your choice! And the gift card options are wonderful! I have no plans to leave CurrentRewards! I actually deleted pandora. Big things coming for CurrentRewards! Thank you

by Linz102

I’ve had CurrentRewards for a few months and have used it off and on. It is great for getting free gift cards! You can just turn your volume on one and let it play music softly while you do something else, even sleep! I’ve gotten so many points by leaving it on while I’m sleeping. It is definitely worth the download :). Also make sure to watch a few of the videos a day, you’ll make some extra points that way

by Xscryna.tromp

When I downloaded CurrentRewards I was like WOW this is actually good, I started using it and I loved it, I use it basically everyday, when im at school, at home drawing, doing my homework, while im at the shower. I love it, and the best part is that you can use it when you are not in CurrentRewards , I can be in instagram snapchat pintrest a game and the music doesn’t stop. I just love it. Thank you so much, right now I have like 230 songs���� i know, im just kindda crazy but i love CurrentRewards. Thank you guys so much ����❤️❤️

by Jazrwin

I love CurrentRewards. I finally was able to find a app that stills plays while my phone is lock. There is one problem that I have. Everything else is fine but everytime I play a song and exit CurrentRewards , the music stops playing then when I go back into CurrentRewards it starts back again. That’s the only problem I have. So can you guys please fix that because it’s getting on my nerves but other than that I love CurrentRewards .
