Is Key for Cash Legit or a Scam?
KeyForCash.com is a very different kind of work
at home data entry program. When you visit their site the first thing
you'll notice is that you're not bombarded with pictures of fancy cars, million
dollar mansions, and bursting bank accounts.
This fact alone is enough to separate KeyForCash.com from the rest of the
bogus data entry from home sites.
...So is Key For Cash a legit program or a
cleverly disguised scam?
For starters KeyForCash.com does not advertise their services and have become
popular simply through word of mouth advertising. This goes a long way to
proving their legitimacy since advertising costs money, and the companies doing
it are obviously looking to recoup their investment from you.
The next thing you'll notice about KeyForCash.com is that there is no cost to
sign up. Registering to receive work from them will not cost you anything,
just enter in some basic info, name, address, and email.
So is this a legit program? The answer is yes, they have been in business
since 2001 and have a history of getting people actual data entry work.
Not like the rest of the B.S. data entry programs which sell you training in
affiliate marketing and how to make money using AdWords.
...Are there any downsides to KeyForCash.com?
Unfortunately, this work at home opportunity is not perfect and does have its
own set of drawbacks. First off it's only available to residents of the
continental United States, this does make sense since most of the work is for
primarily US based companies, but does leave out many applicants.
However, the most detrimental part of KeyForCash.com comes from the
overwhelming demand for data entry at home work. Since there are so many
people searching and applying to Key For Cash the waiting list to get in can
range anywhere from 3 months to several years or at times never.
In addition, the high demand for work and the surplus of potential employees
has driven labor prices way down. Last time I checked, KeyForCash
employees earned 55 cents per 1,000 accurate keystrokes. Obviously this is
better than nothing but it does force you to type an enormous amount to make an
average hourly wage.
To many folks this wouldn't be a problem but the difficulty in earning a
livable wage or substantial supplementary income is increased due to
inconsistent work assignments. Some months there may be work and in some there's
nothing for you.
I don't see any harm in applying to KeyForCash.com but it's good to have
realistic expectations and know that just because something isn't a scam there's still no
guarantee that it will work out for you.

Robert NY | 1:36pm on January 24th, 2012  | This service's rating has dropped extremely poorly. When I first started out, the pay was $.75 Now it is $.30. I think even though they are not a scam? They do however take advantage of people with the lower rates due to people needing money for expenses. |
Jen TN | 7:28pm on January 7th, 2012  | KeyForCash is a legit work-at-home "job"...I have gotten paid twice from them. The only drawback is that there is not always work to be keyed, so do not go into this thinking it will be a steady source of income for you.
Good luck and Happy Keying!!

champ india | 2:50pm on November 5th, 2011 | Well this week only I got call from KFC and did start working, but the payout is now @ .10/1000 character. Its very low, one can understand. But as you don't have work you have to continue with them. About payment I am not sure, will have to wait for a month, then will analyze whether its genuine or not. |
Nick Trinidad | 1:12pm on October 31st, 2011 | Well i've been doing the evaluation for some days now and i finally got a 98 percentile so i will be hearing from them soon I GUESS :D |
amit CA | 1:03pm on June 9th, 2011 | i have been paid from KFC two times so far..its very legitimate and real company. |
trunature california | 1:49pm on May 17th, 2011 | Ive been working for kfc since last week Thursday.. SO far i have accumulated $26.38, so far seems to be easy and cool... |
anonymous Location unknown | 1:42pm on March 23rd, 2011  | Key for cash is no place to work. They treat their workers terribly!! They lowered the pay down to .25 per 1000 keystrokes. There has not been work for some time now. It is not even worth your time as it will not even pay for your electric while waiting for work!!! Run as fast as you can from working there!!!!! You can do much better!!!!!! |
cathy norman missouri | 2:25pm on March 19th, 2011  | I currently work for key for cash. I have always been paid. The only down side is it usually takes almost 30 days to receive your pay check in the mail. But they do pay you. It is a good place to work. It is by far a way to make a living though. It is good to get extra cash to spend. |
TS Harrisburg, PA | 2:27pm on March 10th, 2011 | I just started about a 2 months ago. They showed on my account online that my payment date was 2/20/11 and said they are usually mailed 5 days later. It is now 3/11/11 and I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE CHECK. I've emailed them twice now (the only way you can contact them) and they Still haven't replied...and that has been over a week ago. I'm starting to wonder and if my check doesn't come soon, I'll be filling a complaint with the better business bureau. |
Michelle CA | 12:22am on March 4th, 2011 | I just signed up. The rate is now $0.20 per 1000 keystrokes. Ridiculous. I just spent 30 minutes. Not typing terribly fast, but typing at a normal speed. (I originally scored in the 100th percentile) And I now have $1.34. That means if I continue I'll be making about $2.60 an hour. If I were a kid, this would be awesome. But I think my time is worth more than that. I wanted to make at least minimum wage and this doesn't even let you do that. For a contracted job it pays extremely low.
I do appreciate that there is no selling or referring of any sort. I might continue if I'm really really bored. |
Keisha Irving, Tx | 1:38am on February 16th, 2011  | I signed up with KFC sometime in August. I scored very well (98th percentile) and had forgotten until I got an email yesterday. The pay is a lot lower than I thought, but it's something I can do from home while watching tv, or just hanging out with my roommate. Tonight was my first go and I already have close to $8 in my account with close to 1000 items waiting to be confirmed. It's nothing to quit your job over, but the extra income will definitely be appreciated. |
g Minnesota | 1:15am on February 15th, 2011 | I remember signing up for Key For Cash last year. I just got an acceptance email today and started tonight. The pay rate right now or at least for me is $0.20 per 1000 characters. (I'm reading a lot of you guys are at .40 /characters. I don't know if they have change the pay rate or why is it different for me.) I'm a really fast typer, so I'll see how this goes, I'm usually online staring at the screen for nothing so might as well make a little income on the side. |
kelly cumming | 4:52pm on December 29th, 2010 | If i made 99%, 100% then 69% will i got on to key for cash or no??? |
Denise F Williams TX | 12:31pm on December 27th, 2010 | I have been with KFC since 2001. Ive always been paid when they said they would pay. I think this is a great way to make extra money....as long as you keep in mind that it is just extra money. At times the work is slow....but with patience and willingness to check the site often there will be work. Some weeks are better than others,. I love the work and will continue as long as they have work coming in. Thanks KFC!! |
Anonymous Location unknown | 11:12pm on December 13th, 2010 | These bastards are slave labor pure and simple! |
Donna Johnson Las Vegas NV. | 2:53pm on December 8th, 2010 | Keys for cash was a very good experience for us,at a time of crises they(keys for cash)came threw.With promptness and professionalism. We received 1500.00 dollars at a time that this was needed,due to my heart condition.Except I don't understand why they didn't just let us keep the house/with us making payments.I reckon it was a money thing(OH!!Well!!)I want to take the time to Thank them for a well needed service.Thank-You donna |
AP Indianapolis | 12:00pm on September 28th, 2010 | It took me three months to get hired with Key For Cash and I have been working for a total of 7 months. Currently, the pay rate is $.40 per 1,000 keystrokes and you receive your payment about 3 weeks after you reach an account total of $50. The work is very sporadic, and I average about $51.00 a month. By no means is this to be used to as the primary source of income, but as a graduate student, I find it nice that I have $50 extra dollars coming in a month for miscellaneous expenses. |
Albert Kenya | 4:49am on September 7th, 2010 | I did the test today(7th Aug 2010) got a 96th percentile, I hope they contact me soon, I cant wait to start. |
Debi Tn | 5:02pm on August 5th, 2010 | Only got to do two test received 99th perentile on first, did not see other. Does any oneone know if you can take test again? |
LJ Utah | 9:43am on July 28th, 2010 | It only took me three days to be excepted into their program I took their test for two days and on the third day received an e-mail saying I was accepted. This all sounded great, except for the fact that they only pay .20 cents for every 1000 keystrokes. I type approximately 60 wmp and even so would only make approximately $3.60 an hour if all of my keystrokes are "accepted." You have "slides" and most you cannot read in which case you just type enter and that does not count for a keystroke and the other ones are blank. In about an hour I had just over a dollar in my account with over 500 unconfirmed strokes. |
