PayPal doesn t work so you won t get paid

Set up my account and put PayPal details in but it kept saying the email wasn t the correct one for the account NO because emails for paypal can be different Still I created a new account with matching emails - it still said the PayPal details didn t match I entered my PayPal password several times so I have now immediately changed as it seemed all they wanted was this information and no intention of sending any money -

Very bad experience

After this post they refunded me 29 however the account had been deactivated Such a bad experience I signed up an account and purchased 29 worth of Foap Coins After I posted 7 pictures they shutdown my account and alleged that my pictures might have been stolen from somewhere which they could not even support the allegations I disputed with the Head of Community - Artur - he apologized for the error and agreed to reactivate my account I waited for weeks and emailed them again however no response whatsoever I loss 29 and my time - 5 weeks - disputing with them

Terrible admin letting rogues run amok

There have been several rogue users on this site who have been pilfering images from Pixabay com and likely elsewhere and trying to sell the content on this site while administrators do nothing but tell white little lies about how to report the misappropriation of the digital media They should go down in flames and they will be likely be party to a lawsuit soon enough

Careful signing up with Foap - possible scam site

Careful signing up with Foap You have to pay to join the contests which have cash prizes Numerous reports of users with thousands of followers selling 2 photos They only pay 5 per photo lol I uploaded numerous photos which I took and own and they closed my account without telling me Turns out they claim someone reported my photos Foap told me and I quote - You stole those photos don t upload stolen photos here Most bizarre experience I have had with a stock agency I sell professionally on numerous other sites The site smells of scam and they are in Poland so buyer beware

Nowadays slavery

These days it feels like slavery for contributors I ve been waiting for my 57 payment from Foap since June 2023 and when I finally received it it wasn t in dollars They made the genius move of transferring it in Euros so in reality I received 51 6 I m disappointed in your policy and the way this was handled

Foap stopped paying for the pictures for more than a half of year

I ve been a foap user for a while now I ve sold quite a few pictures there but since the first half of last year 2023 things started to get fishy as far as I m concernd They stoped paying for the pictures I actually all of us sold and nothing changed still They say that they have PayPal problems while other stock photos sites don t have this problem My guess is that they are in insolvency or something If so they should announce this on their website and not mislead people in uploading pictures while they are not planning to pay for If you are planning to join foap think again

Very unreliable website I ve been

Very unreliable website I ve been uploading some pictures when it was finally time to get paid my account was deleted Gone just like that it took months building up that profile

Fraud Warning

Foap stopped to pay money to the sellers long time ago Covering with PayPal issue for monthes After asked members to creat an account on Payoneer I guess to get money for referral via their link But after 2 months after I send them payoneer s link to pay nothing happened And the worse thing they still sending offers for competitions to encourage members to download more photos They should inform about the situation and go bankruptcy Please be careful and choose another trustworthy place to sale your photos

Not paying photographers

Haven t been paid for nearly a year Foap says it was a problem with PayPal that has been fixed But still the photographers are not being paid when their photos sell or win contests Don t bother putting photos on Foap Foap says in its comment below that payment for your sold content has also been processed to you No it has not been received as of today March 1 2024 My account says it was supposed to be received in July 2023 but it is still unpaid today and my account says it s processing I already contacted the Foap team a few months ago Update March 4 - I contacted Foap a second time as they suggested in their response to this post They replied that their PayPal payment system still isn t working and that s why I haven t been paid after waiting nearly a year You have been warned
