I am confused.

In order to make $5 payment via PayPal, you need to have a member link.

Is it possible to get a $5 Amazon voucher instead?

Do I really have to reach 4,500?

There is a section listed under ForumCoin Related Discussions called Official ForumCoin Offers where your payment options are listed and explained.

Look under the subtitle section called "Stickies" and read the topics labeled as

Must Read > ForumCoin Payment and Gift Confirmations

$5 via PayPal

$50 for 4,500 ForumCoin - PayPal, Amazon Gift Cards, Bitcoin or Litecoin

Amazon Vouchers

As you can see, there are several options included to "cash out" your ForumCoin earnings. If you choose the $5 via PayPal, you need to have a member's link which is priced at 200 FCs and then you also need a minimum of 500 FCs for the $5.00 payment. That means you need to have at least 700 FCs to actually cash out. This is the only option that requires a member's link. It appears obvious that there is some discouragement to just cashing out at the minimum level. Look at the other options.

If you select the Amazon Vouchers, you can acquire the voucher with the minimum 500 FCs and that does not require the member's link.

There is also the option to accumulate 4500 FCs for a bonus. First, there is no member's link required and second, instead of the $45 actual cash value, there is a $5 bonus for accumulating the 4500 FCs before cashing in and you receive $50 instead.

Members also have the ongoing option to spend your FC accumulation by responding to the member ads and simply spending as you go. There is no member link required to use it as you go along and there are no transaction fees involved in member to member trades.

Read the official instructions in each offer for full details.

Thank you for explaining. In this case, I would really love to have the $5 Amazon voucher option.

Regarding Amazon gift cards, if @fergal could offer Amazon.in gift cards also, it will be great! It is because Amazon.com gift cards are not valid in India.

Thanks for your suggestion raaman, what currency would you like those in? Can they be in US dollars?

It should be in Indian currency i.e. Rupees. I read somewhere that amazon.com gift cards are not valid in India since amazon.in is operative in India.

Thank you raaman, I will consider that and may add it soon.

Or even P2P there is lot of offers of crypto advertised here, you need one year to collect it without P2P option which seems far from logic cash out once a year.
