I discovered kickback.com and tried it out. Is it scam/legit or not? After some 1vs1 matches and advertisement in my player name (kickback) i got about 24.000 ruby’s.
Then i wanted to withdraw a weapon with this ruby’s, but this is completely impossible!
Game cancelled
I got a lot of matches where i can’t even play because always the player don’t connect to the game.
Waiting time
For some matches i’ve waited 3-5 minutes and more! This sucks.
Amount of the items you want to withdraw is always higher than your current ruby’s.
You are very lucky if you find a item in the market which you can afford from your rubs. I think that they just show the items for the withdrawal which are about 10-20% higher priced than your ruby balance.
A lot of ban’s from matchmaking
I’ve got a lot of ban’s from the matchmaking because my „skill level should be re-classified“. Even after just 2 games as you can see on the screenshots!!!
63 Games -> Ban
65 Games -> Ban
Item purchases locked
I was very lucky and found a item from the market which i can afford. Someone cheered too soon. I got this error message:
Could not process request
Now i’ve played exactly 100 games as the error message above said. But i couldn’t withdraw the item.
I should play 100 games in the last month. Then i thought about if this is even possible with the whole matchmaking ban’s, players who cancel the game and the amount of error’s i get.
Another item purchase locked error
Support contact
I have to:
- Verify your email
- Add your steam account
- Add your phone
- Enable Notifications – https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/3220216?hl=en
- Add your twitter account
- Play your first game
I don’t even have a twitter account. Also my phone number has (without +49) exactly 11 digits and the maximum is 10 digits. So i can’t even add my phone number because it is one digit too long.
Because i can’t activate my own number i tried another one. But this failed because the service is temporarily unavailable.
Also a third number failed.
Also a fourth number failed.
Twitter account
I must connect a twitter account. But i don’t have one. So i created an account and connected it.
Enable Notifications
When i clicked on the text nothing happened. When i switched to firefox from chromium i was able to enable the notifications.
No items available
There is not even one item withdrawable…
I waited a few weeks to payout my item because of a restock. But no item was restocked and the market is empty for another month.
The kickback bots even have items in their inventory but those items are not used for the restock.
Item request
Even after a restock i didn’t get my notification mail. The item is still not available.
Conclusion
They have always a different excuse why i can’t withdraw a item. I think that kickback this is a scam site. Just one error message should be fine, but i got a few of those and every time i must do another thing. I spent so much time in following the error messages of this site. If i count the hourly wage which i get when i worked for the same time it is a lot more than the worth of the skin.
So i have about 24.000 ruby’s on my account but i can’t do anything with those! This is a complete waste of time!

kickback isnt a scam, i think after they removed most gambling site, it also went down. i’ve withdraw a few items before. but that was when valve took control of some of the gambling site. im sure valve did something to this website.
Yeah but i am still not able to withdraw a item…
I can’t complete the onboarding steps because my phone number is one digit too long for the phone number field limit and if i try a other number the service is unavailable. Also there are currently no items to withdraw. The market is completely empty. So this is a waste of time.
Very well researched and documented article.
I appreciate your time and efforts. I did not read any website till now and now that I did, I realized the Inventory says it will restock in 11 days and after some hours, the timer resets.
Moreover, NONE of the skins are available for purchase.
yeah 😀 after the restock today exactly zero items were restocked
I see this post was made a few months ago but i have to agree with you. I was waiting for months to buy some skins but i cant because it always says they will announce me via email if the skin will be restocked. And even though they had restock yesterday still the same message on every skin. I found it interesting that a site like this dosent have any skins on stock. I also contacted the support at they simply didnt answer.
They don’t answer because it’s scam 😉
Yeah sadly. I still feel bad that i advertised a scam site for like 1 year. I wish i could stop others to fell in the same trap.
this is sad the lie to us and they still owe me 40$
Yeah that is pretty bad, and we cant even o anything against them.
