They are not making any money yet, but when the site launches this month they will make a killing.
As they say, you have to spend money to make money. The lockerz team has allowed people to sign up to the site before it's actually launched to get the user base built up, then when the launch comes they will have tons of users. How will they make money when they launch? shopping and advertising. If you shop with lockerz you get points for prizes and they make money. When you play a game on there shit, you have to watch an ad before you please the game, theres money for them. Plus theres heaps more.
They are spending alot of money right now giving out prizes when they are not making anything but i think thats a good investment because when the site launches the money will be raked in.

Site will go bankrupt or drastically change their plans when they realize they are not earning anything within 3 months after opening
Although they do sound like they know what they're doing quote:
Lockerz is a real company. It is funded by Liberty Media, one of the largest media companies in the US. The Chief Executive Officer of Lockerz is Kathy Savitt, a former executive at Amazon.com and American Eagle Outfitters

RE: lockerz
I just signed up (thanks discrate <3) and it seems pretty cool I guess. Maybe its just the graphics talking lol.
Some prices are like:
120GB slim PS3 - 675 PTZ
64GB Apple iPod Touch (newest Gen) 800 PTZ
16GB Apple iPod Nano (newest Gen) 425 PTZ
PSP Ratchet and Clank Bundle 200 PTZ
Skullcandy Skullcrusher 175 PTZ
PSP/Wii/Xbox/PS3/PS2/PC/DS games 100 PTZ
iPhone Skins/Decals 35 PTZ
And every day that you sign in, you get 2 PTZ. So if you wait 400 days just signing in every day and not playing any games or anything, you should be able to get a 64gb iPod touch

Actually not, but I guess that's what I get for barely sleeping. Read the thread now, by bad .
Still, I don't see this being very legitimate myself, seems kind of weird. I haven't seen many sites that will just give you money for doing things. Not many that give the money they promised anyway. Hell, even google ads doesn't always pay up.

Yeh but as i said in my previous posts, when the site fully launches, they will start to make money. Anyway even if it is a scam, a billion dollar media company will be in very big trouble.
Lockerz is owned by liberty media. They are floated on the stock exchange

See their terms and conditions; Points will expire after 12 months if you don't redeem them.

There is also daily questions where you answer and get 2 points. Also as i said previously, the site is launching this month so there will be more ways then 2 to get points.
Also as i said in my previous post. Liberty media owns lockerz, not some new basement company. I don't think it is a scam. |
