Hi @SuVinay Pawa, Not sure about being real, but it would raise, in my opinion, an ethical question. Would this be ethical? My only suggestion is there are no shortcuts in selling and marketing Apps. LA

I agree with @LA, that's my objection. And the funniest thing to me: Given what they're selling do you believe all the positive the "Buyers Feedback" on this page?!! Ha! -William

That is a point @la but the competition from other apps is alsoa factor.

If you want a service like that, I'd recommend using fiverr.com, it's the original and best, user feedback is genuine and they have a team of real people dealing promptly with issues. Never heard of gigbucks and would be cautious using it. As for the ethics of paying for ratings, it's a fact of internet life. Paid press releases, paid article services, google adwords, paid reviews etc etc etc, are all attempts to manipulate the general public. Fair game I say.

I wouldn't do anything that would risk getting your account banned with Google/Apple. Big corporations are getting wiser about spotting fake reviews. And Google is notorious for not giving second chances.
