Don't really get much luck on the gift cards since every body wins except me but other than that am happy with the rewards. Wish we could claim our rewards as a gift card or bank payout

Gener8

Very easy and user friendly way of generating points from basically you using the Gener8 APP runibg in the background while you use your phone. A no-brainer! Highly recommended!!

A fantastic way to understand data and collect rewards as it’s money for nothing! If I wasn’t so busy and forgetful I’d make more!!!

Great! I forget about it and come back to the app and use my accumulated points to get a gift card. It’s free so no complaints from me so far.

Saved up points for about 18 months

Saved up points for about 18 months. Eventually won an Amazon Echo pop worth about 45 pounds. I guess it's free apart from giving up my personal info. It's not arrived yet but if it does. Happy enough

Doesn’t pay out physical rewards

Been using this app pre dragons den. Won an auction of a coffee machine about 5 months ago. Never arrived, never got a refund and never got a reply from support.

Hi Jase, thanks for flagging this. That definitely shouldn’t have happened - all physical rewards from auctions are usually sent at the start of the following month the reward is redeemed.

If you don't mind, please could you drop us an email at support@gener8ads.com with the date you won the auction (and, if possible, forward the confirmation email)? That’ll help us track this down quickly and get it sorted for you. 🙂

My dad told me about this app was a bit skeptical at first but it's really good. Little effort to earn points and with a teenage daughter who loves Starbucks this helps with the costs.

Good app

It took a little while to be able to make a redemption as you have to be QUICK as they go very fast
But overall a good experience and I will continue to use

A once great app with potential

Sadly, this was a great app, with the promise of it getting better (Previously left a 5* review), but now with declining gift cards and values, from £5 gift cards to £3. I was getting a new card at least every other week. Currently, I have not had one since 5 Aug 2024 and have since accumulated 2,454.04 worthless points.

Hi Ryan, thanks for leaving your feedback and sorry to hear you're disappointed! Gift cards are always in high demand and can go quickly - but we’ve also introduced more ways to earn points and added new reward types - including real-world rewards, exclusive offers & freebies and prize draws for high value gift cards 🎁.

Your points are definitely not worthless! You can use them across this wide range of rewards, and we’re always adding more. If there are particular rewards you’d love to see, we’d love to hear your suggestions anytime at support@gener8ads.com 🙏🙂

Hard to spend points

While Gener8 allows users to earn points by selling their data-which can be redeemed for rewards-the experience is often frustrating. The main issue is the poor availability of gift vouchers. They're frequently out of stock, making it difficult to spend your hard-earned points. As a result, you end up wasting a lot of time trying to redeem rewards that simply aren't available.

Thanks for leaving your feedback, Gary 🙂. Gift cards are really popular, which means they can sometimes sell out quickly. To make it fair, they’re released on a timer and redeemed on a first-come, first-served basis.

That said, gift cards are just one part of Gener8 Rewards – there are also exclusive offers, auctions, freebies, charity donations, cinema tickets, and even real-world rewards to explore.

We’re always adding new options, and feedback like yours helps us shape what comes next! If there's anything you'd like to see on rewards, you can let us know anytime at support@gener8ads.com 😊✉️

Gener8 - great app and fast payouts!

An easy way to get vouchers for doing nothing as Gener8 works away in the background on my mobile phone. Immediate receipt of vouchers.
