Explore New Websites
« on: November 01, 2019, 05:57:50 am »
When I did Explore New Websites this morning, I got the following message all over the offer. This message popped up on every page as well as the top of the offer. Does anyone have any idea what this is about?

Due to changes in the company direction, all Perk applications will be shutting down on December 1, 2019. Users will need to redeem their Perk Points by November 20, 2019, or the points will expire. Thanks again for all your support these past several years! If you have any questions please reach out to support@perk.com.Thank you for claiming

I haven't noticed that but I used to be a member of that website and received an email with that message today. Maybe some of the offers on this website were somehow connected to that website? Not sure but either way, I think it's just informing us that Perk is shutting down.

This is true!    >:(   I just cashed out on the site and still have 10,000 tokens with nowhere to redeem them,  The sweepstakes page is blank, I emailed their support to see why it was blank! 

I did get a 2.00 Amazon gift card for very little effort though, have to be happy with that!

I have not seen the message, but I imagine that the offer is sponsored by Perk, and is informing users that Perk is shutting down. I suppose this offer will not be available much longer.

I stopped doing the Explore New Websites because they take too long for a penny. But I'm guessing they're available through Perk and now that Perk is closing, this offer will soon become unavailable. Anyway, if you don't use any of the other Perk applications, this shouldn't affect you much.

Never seen it or heard about it.  So many money making are sites.  Think more people are trying to supplement their income

I have not done those offers for a while. I had no idea the site is shutting down.

I haven't seen or heard about this.  Sad to hear that another site is shutting down!  :(

Well, I got it again this morning when I clicked on Explore New Websites. Maybe I have registered with Perks and don't remember. I am going to check out Perks but I have to assume that it has something to do with Explore New Websites because I do not get this pop up or drop down on any other sites.

I received that message too. I don't know what it means but I hope the site isn't closing down.

I noted this message when I clicked on Explore New Websites yesterday.  I've never signed up with Perks, only recently hearing the name, but it appeared to be a notice that was attached to this particular video offer that works much like a blast email.  In that way, they are able to reach a wider audience that there are some changes in the works.

I also got the same message.  I took the time to go through all of the videos and then it did not credit me with doing them.

I did some research on Perks and it is a GPT site similar to FC but one you do on your phone.

I am going to assume that Explore New Websites was one of their offers since the message is not attached to anything else on FC.

I think that it is really nice and professional that Perks is giving members plenty of notice that they are calling it quits and to use their points.

I also got the message but don't think it will effect our credits with FC, only members of Perk and think the video will disappear like others are saying
