have just heard about Lolli.
Lolli rewards purchasers from a range of suppliers with bitcoin instead of other types of reward types.
On the face of it , if it takes off might add adoption of bitcoin as its an easy way for people to be introduced to bitcoin.
On the other hand it is potentially fraught with issues and for various reasons people may never actually get what they think they are getting so would actually not help longer term.
is anyone using it? besides being 'awarded' some bitcoin have you actually got sole access to the privet keys or tried to cash out etc. ie where does it all end up?
sorry if this should be in another thread?
I mean, it's a fun idea but really, nothing special. There has been a ton of cashback extensions and sites, and this is exactly like the rest of them, except it pays in bitcoin.
There is very little risk of using the service though, if you just install it and purchase whatever you wanted to purchase anyways. The only risks that I could think of would be them not paying you the bitcoins once you hit their $15 withdrawal threshold, and that would be a fairly low one in my opinion.
The thing though is that you're likely to make anything that is worth your while from this service. The cashback rates that are advertised are usually inflated by a lot, and there will likely be a lack of partnering companies that actually do offer cashbacks. Unless you shop on a regular basis, already use all their partnered sites, and potentially be willing to deal with item restrictions, I don't see it as anything too practical.
