Recompensated sits between two groups: advertisers who want people to try their apps, surveys, and services, and users who want rewards for their time. Our job is to connect the two fairly and pass the value on to you.
The journey of one offer
- You pick an offer and complete the required action — an install, a sign-up, a survey, a purchase, or a game milestone.
- The advertiser (or the offer wall partner that hosts it) records that the action happened and sends a confirmation, called a postback, back to us.
- We match that confirmation to your account and credit the points, sometimes after a short hold while the advertiser verifies the action stuck.
- The points appear in your balance, ready to redeem for crypto, a prepaid Visa reward, a gift card, or other options.
Where holds and reversals come from
Advertisers sometimes confirm an action, then reverse it later — for example, if a purchase is refunded or a sign-up turns out to be fraudulent. To stay fair to everyone, some rewards have a hold period before they fully clear, and a reversed offer can claw back points it originally paid.
This is not a penalty on honest users. It is the same mechanism that lets us keep paying real rewards without raising the bar for everyone.
What we control and what we do not
- We control: the catalogue of offers, the points you earn, the payout options, and how quickly we process withdrawals once approved.
- We do not control: whether an individual advertiser counts your specific action as valid. That decision sits with them and their anti-fraud checks.

Complete one offer and watch the path: complete, pending, then credited. The first time it clicks, the rest makes sense.
