I've called class action firm Scott and Scott to see if it's possible to pursue a claim against Ryan Koonce and/or Superpoints LLC with respect to the vanished funds.
In the meantime, you can still get your free amazon gift card fix with InstaGC.

Another Day Another Dollar
I've gotten quite a few instant gift cards from InstaGC and now I've gotten one more.
At $1, they have the lowest cashout level of any PTC service I've seen thus far.
You may have noticed the constant shilling for this one site. You may also have noticed the disclaimers at the bottom of each post.
Yes, InstaGC actually does pay just for blog posts.
Which means you can earn $1 every month for simply doing as I do, like so.
Remember, if it takes you 2 minutes to add InstaGC's link to a post you were planning to make anyway, you've earned $7.50/hour— better than minimum wage. And if you can tap out the addition in 30 seconds (remember, you were making the post anyway), then you have earned $30/hour. Pretty good for a PTC site!

Oh, Internet
With the sudden demise of Superpoints and the disappearance of all the points users may have had with that company, I thought it would be a given that someone would have started a class action lawsuit to force its owner Ryan Koonce to pay up.
So I googled around.
And as it happens, not one of Superpoints' many ripped off users have bothered to file suit.
One of them did, however, start an online petition requesting that Superpoints reactivate to allow users to cash out. Which is totally just as effective.
If you still have points missing, you can call/write/sue Superpoints LLC, which still exists, by clicking the first link of this post to find their phone and address. If, however, you have an urgent need for free gift cards, you can use that link to sign up for InstaGC. Because InstaGC allows you to cash out at $1 rather than requiring you to build up $5 or $25, and because they deliver the gift cards instantly rather than after 7 to 365 business days, you don't have to risk the disappearance of more than a few cents if they suddenly go bankrupt.

InstaGC Cashout
I recently cashed out my free amazon gift cards from InstaGC, along with other PTC and survey sites.
I made a list of all the cash and gift cards that were due for later delivery.
InstaGC was not on that list.
Because, as the name promises, the gift cards I claimed from InstaGC were displayed instantly, with no wait and no delivery. Push the button, get a gift code! I think there's a new book at Amazon with my name on it.
Total cashout: $22. My choice is Amazon due to its ubiquity, but they have other options.

InstaGC Amazon Cashback
As I've already made very clear, you can earn free gift cards easily from Insta GC; just complete offers and redeem the points.
However, InstaGC is now offering cash back shopping, just like Swagbucks and Memolink. The eligible merchants on InstaGC is comparatively limited, but one key feature sticks out: InstaGC offers 2% cash back for Amazon, making them the only shopping rewards company I've seen which does.

Swagbucks Redemption Rates
As a longtime Swagbucks user, I was pleased to discover that until the end of December, their redemption rates have changed so that 1 Swagbuck = $0.01 for all gift cards— and all monthly limits are removed!
Of course, on InstaGC, you can get instant gift cards at that redemption rate all the time.
So now there are two great sites to sign up with!

Superpoints Is Closed
One of my regular PTC sites was Superpoints. However, visiting superpoints.com now yields only a message that the site is closed because the management company running it has been fired by the company that owns it.
The message claims that pending redemptions will be paid out, however no notice was provided of the impending closing and so all of my points (approximately $15 worth) have now vanished into the void.
The site offers a support email and claims that emails regarding redemptions will be addressed, however as of 14 November, one week after the closure, they have not replied to either of my emails.
If you have lost points when the site shut down, it seems that the owner, Superpoints LLC, is still in business. If the management team does not address your concerns by email, try contacting them here:
Superpoints, LLC
8127 Mesa Drive, B206-258
Austin, TX 78759
(512) 931-4942
Once you've successfully collected your final redemptions from Superpoints, you can continue to earn free gift cards from InstaGC.

Status disclaimer: There is currently no evidence that Superpoints is closed because of AIDS and that meme is already long dead.
