There is a difference, a big difference, between what appears to be promised by the site and what has been delivered so far. GZ members should know: they will trade real cash for a worthless currency, the site has NO active merchants accepting the worthless currency, and no member has been paid a dime despite promises otherwise. Join for free, if you want a front row seat to a train wreck, but do NOT give them cash, an email address you don't want full of more spam, or access to your banking information.

GreenZap's going to collapse if this is their marketing strategy. They're creating bad vibes with the "bogus" bonus money. That's like ING saying "here's $25, you can only use it to offset your taxes."

Thanks for the warning

Thanks for the heads up. I hadn't even heard of GreenZap. My wife and I use PayPal for the little bit of stuff that we do on eBay. I think PayPal seems a bit pricey for merchants - especially when you add to that the fees that eBay charges.
