Does anyone ever receive PayPal payments from these games that advertise they pay your PayPal account or Amazon? I’m in Canada and the rules in the games seem to be different and none of the games seem to have a developer or other support contact. Update: answered. Thank you

Most games are scams.

Hundreds of posts on this forum all saying money is pending from one game or another but I have never seen anyone actually get paid any money.
The large amounts of cash folks are trying to withdraw are a lot more than any game could earn with their advertisement sponsorships.

They just want you to think you will get cash to make you play or watch their ads or videos.
Research first as its very unlikely you are going to get a lot of money from playing a game !

Its also against Paypal rules (acceptable use policy) to use your Paypal account for any gaming or gambling purposes so that gaming site would be unable to offer Paypal as an option on the site to pay out rewards.
They just add a Paypal logo to their site to fool you into thinking that they will.

Thank you for the reply. That answers a lot of questions. Except one. Can I remove my post now that the topic has been cleared up?

Sadly not, you can click on the 3 dots and edit any of your own posts but that's about all we can do on here.

The rest is up to the moderators that archive threads when they get too old.
