Finance Buzz, Not So Buzzworthy Afterall

Finance Buzz seemed really promising at first, so I signed up. Now that I receive the emails, their main content looks like getting people to download fraudulent/scam gaming apps, which I’m sure they receive referral bonuses for. Other than those gaming apps, they have no useful content.

Edit to add response: A scam gaming app is not a side hustle, nor is it a way for people to pay down debt. You are paying money to these gaming apps and having nothing to show for it when that money is lost. ALL of your articles will be these gaming apps just listed numerically.

Hi Kendra, FinanceBuzz does not own or operate gaming apps, but we do feature them on our site. We vet our partners out carefully and ensure they have excellent consumer reviews on the Google Play App Store and Apple App Store. Consumers have generated additional money from these apps which is why we consider it a side hustle.

Our editorial team stands firmly by the quality of our content per our Editorial Policy. If you are looking for certain content related to a financial question, please email us at contact@financebuzz.com and we'd be happy to help.

False Apple Pay advice article makes me think the site is just scams.

I see an ad on the web. “ 6 Nearly Secret Things To Do If You Use Apple Pay “

I click the link to read more information about tips for Apple Pay. Immediately it suggested:
Play a affiliated gambling app and win money.
Play an affiliated gambling bingo app.
Apply for a different affiliated credit card.
Apply for debt relief from an affiliate site.
Apply for a completely different credit card.
gambling.
And finally fill my free time with an affiliated game for iPhone. With chances to win money.
This is not helpful. Not related. Not advice. Not journalism. It’s insulting. It’s predatory.
This is completely ridiculous. honedtly? based on this one interaction I don’t think this site is real. Scams. Stay away. Block.

Hello, it appears the article you came across does feature some of FinanceBuzz's partners' offers. These are not "scams" but highly rated financial products and services.

As noted in the article, "we may receive compensation from the products and services mentioned." Many of readers have found these opportunities to be helpful, but we recognize not all will.

The FinanceBuzz team creates a lot of content and stands by our Editorial Policy. We hope you'll consider checking out other content that may be more relevant for your particular financial situation.

Finance Buzz is shill reviews

Finance Buzz is a shill review writer for pay for play apps that collect money but hardly pay out.
I installed Solitaire Cash, Solitaire Pop, etc. Collected jewels until I had enough to play for cash reward. I met the minimum cash out $2 and the app freezes preventing a payout.
Help requests are useless and a response never returns.
If the company shills for P4P apps, I'm very sure credit card/loans/refi recommendations are sketchy.

Hi JG,

Thank you for your feedback.

FinanceBuzz does not own or operate Solitaire Cash, but we do feature them on our site. If you're having problems with the app, you can reach out to their in-app Support or https://www.papayagaming.com/contact. We don't control payouts from Solitaire Cash but it is rated 4.6/5 stars in the App Store.

We aren't familiar with Solitaire Pop but would recommend you also reach out to their customer support.

FinanceBuzz takes the integrity of our content and recommendations seriously. You can read more about our editorial policy here: https://financebuzz.com/editorial-policy
