ReviewStream Review – Real Earnings For Writers?

Reviewstream Review

Thanks for joining me today for my review of ReviewStream.

The ReviewStream platform claims to offer you the opportunity to earn money writing content and reviews.

To help you make a more informed decision about this site I will be taking an in-depth look at how the platform works, how and when you get paid, and what is good and not so good about working with the site.



What Is ReviewStream?

Review Stream is a platform that pays you to produce content and write reviews on any topic that interests you. You can write reviews on products that you have used before, or deliver content on your experiences.

ReviewStream aims at providing helpful information to readers, and that is why the company is willing to pay you for your unique, but insightful content.

How Does ReviewStream Work?

Review Stream works in a very simple way. All you have to do is to visit the content submission page and select the type of content that you would like to handle. Available categories include:

• ‘How do I’ articles
• Text-based reviews
• Images based reviews
• Interviews
• In-depth research
• Viral content

After selecting your preferred category, all you have to do is write a review, upload relevant pictures and then submit the content.



The Review Stream team will analyze your review before accepting or rejecting the content. Each content category has a particular compensation rate tied to it.

Regular pay ranges from $5 to $18 per content. However, this rate is subject to change at any time.

How And When Does ReviewStream Pay?

Review Stream pays via PayPal. The minimum payout threshold on this platform is ten times the amount of your first payment.

For instance, if your first pay was $15, then your minimum cash out should be $150. Considering the fact that most reviews earn an average of $5, it could take a while to accumulate this amount.



How To Make The Most Out Of ReviewStream

Writing high-quality content can help you increase your earning potential on this platform. Here are a few tricks that can help you make the most out of this site.

Do not plagiarize content

Always produce original, well-researched content. Do not reuse content from other reviews. Plagiarizing content will lead to multiple rejections and a possible ban.

Locations

When writing about locations or reviewing a particular place, e.g., restaurant, hotel, etc., it is always advisable that you indicate the name and exact address of that area or location.



What Are The Pros?

  • Reputable platform

Review Stream is a reputable content platform that has been in existence since 2005. This platform is free to join, and anyone from any part of the globe can submit content without restrictions.

Above all, Review Stream pays its members promptly via PayPal, which is enough proof that it is a legitimate company.

  • Multiple ways to earn money

This platform offers you multiple ways of earning money. Apart from selling content, Review Stream allows readers to vote for content, and each vote pays $0.10.

You can promote your content on social media to get more votes and this translates to more pay.

Another way of earning cash is by providing instant replies to unanswered questions posed on the platform. Each answer that you give earns you $0.10.

If you are a good writer, you may apply your skills by writing reviews for other Review Stream members and earn money. Each custom review pays about $18.00.



  • High payouts

Regular payment ranges from $5 to $18 per content. This amount is reasonable considering the fact that Review Stream does not limit the number of review submissions per day.

Also, Review Stream still pays for content that does not match some of their requirements. However, this is through the bulk rate, which is 5 times lower than the regular rate.

  • Wide variety of content categories

You can write reviews on just about any topic that interests you. Also, your grammar does not have to be excellent for you to submit content.

Review Stream seeks to provide helpful information to the masses and that is why your grammatical errors are not a major concern.

  • Reasonable referral program

Review Stream will pay you 2% of what your referrals earn on this platform.

  • Support team available

This team consists of editors who are readily available to help you write high-quality reviews. One of my readers however didn’t find support helpful ( see comments below) (let me know if you have dealt with customer support).

What Are The Cons?

  • Ambiguous pay

Review Stream is relatively ambiguous when it comes to payments. The company does not offer a definite pay rate, and you have to check on the submission page to find out how much you can earn at any particular time.

The payment rate is subject to change at any time and without notice.

  • High minimum payout threshold

The minimum payout threshold on this platform is high. The cashout amount is ten times your initial payment. This restrictive requirement is a bit discouraging.

  • Strict criteria for approving content

It takes a minimum of three days to process submitted content, but sometimes it can be longer.

Although Review Stream does not focus on grammar too much, your article may still be rejected due to grammatical errors. If your content contains more description than opinion, then expect your content to be rejected as well.

  • Pays via PayPal only

Review Stream pays via PayPal only. This means that you have to open a PayPal account even if it is not your preferred payment option.

Also, PayPal offers limited services in some countries, and this may prove to be a problem when it comes to receiving payments for members.

  • Has a confusing and poorly designed interface

As interfaces go, the Review Stream is far from the most welcoming and user friendly I’ve seen.



Final Thoughts On ReviewStream-Is It Worth It?

Review Stream is definitely not a scam. It is a good business model with numerous opportunities for online job seekers. However, the company does not reveal enough as far as payments are concerned.

You can never be sure how much you will earn for a particular content since there is no definite rate for content, and the price is subject to change at any time.

Nevertheless, if you are passionate about writing reviews and you are willing to overlook the few shortcomings of this platform, including its poorly designed interface, then joining Review Stream is a viable option.

Star Rating 2.5/5-Quite a good earning platform for those who want to give a unique opinion on products. I would have given a higher score if there were definite pay rates available.

  1. My previous experience with them was very bad. Rude, vague and whether they pay is questionable.

    Takes ages to have enough reviews accepted to be able to cash out, so never get to know if they really pay. I think sir, if you’re writing this review just because they accepted your review and given you money on the website but have not cash out into your bank yet, you can’t call it legit.

    Just my 2 cents.

    1. Hi Koen,
      Yes I agree, the website is vague about how much you are likely to earn for your articles.

      Also, the site appears to want more opinion based articles, so if you’re writing about a product for example they want the views of people who have used that product. Simply describing the product will probably mean the article won’t get accepted. Therefore I would recommend writing for the site only if you have real world experience of something and sharing your personal opinion.

      Because a site is legit doesn’t mean it’s necessarily a good choice for you, or an easy way to make money. The criteria for accepting articles here may be difficult to meet, however that doesn’t mean it isn’t legit.

      I haven’t been paid to write this review, and I don’t promote ReviewStream via their referral program. I have used the site personally and like yourself I found it quite difficult to earn due to my articles not being accepted. Nevertheless I took what I learned from using the site and researched what other users experienced to help me form an opinion that I have given.
      I have no personal experience with their customer service, so I’m sorry to hear that you found them to be rude. I wonder if any other readers have experienced this? I have amended my review to make readers aware of your complaint.
      Thanks for taking the time to read and comment on my article. I really appreciate readers like yourself either backing or challenging my opinion as it ultimately leads to my readers being better informed.

    1. Hi Alice,
      You can sign up to Reviewstream on their website HERE You need to scroll down to the link that says ‘Sell Content’. Good luck, I hope you enjoy your experience. Let us know how you get on.

  2. Was scammed by reviewstream!! They are by no way “reputable” website unless you consider notorious as reputable too.

    I won’t trust them with my reviews or information. Nor do I believe that they will eventually pay me. I started with them October 2017 and had many accepted reviews on their site but never able to cashout!

    1. Hi Jap,
      Thanks for sharing your experience of ReviewStream. I’m sorry to hear that you haven’t been paid.
      Hopefully payment will be made, I would be grateful however if you could update my readers by letting us know how you get on.
      Thanks again.

    2. Currently there are no uncompleted money transfer requests in our system.
