3. How do I sign up for Lootfeed?
You can sign up at our website, Lootfeed.com. Once there, please indicate what gaming platforms you own. Our current beta is currently open for Xbox, with more platforms to come shortly. If you indicate you have an Xbox we will send you an invitation.
Please note that you will need to disable your Xbox 2-factor authentication to properly use the Lootfeed Beta. To disable, please follow these steps: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/my-account/security/turn-off-two-step-verification
4. How does this work? I have to sign into my gaming account and my bank account? Am I paying myself to game?
Lootfeed requires both a bank account and an Xbox account. Yes, you are paying yourself. One way to think of this is you are in an arcade instead of giving your money away for each game you play, you are instead reinvesting in yourself.

5. How does the company make money? Are you taking a cut when transfers are made?
We are a $1 a month subscription service. There is a small transfer fee of 1% of the $5 deposited. It comes out to be 5 cents for every 5 dollars deposited.
