Memolink Pays - $10 Amazon.com Gift Certificate Redemption

I am reporting my $10 redemption from Memolink in the form of an Amazon.com gift certificate. Memolink’s site states that the rewards are usually processed and shipped within 7 days. The code was emailed to me within 4ys after redemption. I submitted the redemption via Memolink’s website on October 17 2010 and I received the email containing the code on Oct 21 2010. You need 19200 points to redeem for a $10 value reward. I chose Amazon.com gift certificate because it is one of the rewards which can be fulfilled via electronic delivery instead of risking snail mail’s delivery time and also risk of it being lost in the mail. (I’ve had experiences with MyPoints which I redeemed for a $50 Amazon.com gift certificate which never arrived and I basically lost my hard earned points). Just to be safe.


I have been a Memolink member since 2004 and I have received my rewards promptly after submitting my redemption request. Memolink pays!

You can collect points via various activities at Memolink (surveys, daily clicks, trivia, lotto, etc). You can also get points when you complete purchases from various popular merchants online (similar to cashback concept at BigCrumbs, only that you get points instead of cashback.) Points per dollar vary from merchant to merchant.

For certain activity completed, you receive a star which will entitle to MemoGold status once you have 10 stars (your Memo Meter filled up). Once you have filled you’re your Memo Meter with 10 stars, you’re eligible to upgrade to Memo Gold status which will be valid for 6 months. (Yes, you must manually upgrade to Memo Gold status, they don’t automatically upgrade you).

Below are the benefits of having Memo Gold status:
Additional 10% more points earned (for e.g. 5 points will now become 5.5 points)
