Over the past month, I've downloaded several apps that give you money for doing simple things. I've made about $35 over the month using these apps. This may not seem like a huge amount, but it's $35 I didn't have before. Here are the 3 best apps (available on both iOS and Android) that actually pay you for using them. It's not enough to live off of, but we can all use a little extra spending money.
1. Surveys on the Go
Recommended for you
This app is very easy to use and gives you money for taking surveys. The surveys are usually short; about three to four minutes. They are usually worth between 10 and 50 cents per survey. Some surveys are longer and are worth more money, but you have to qualify for them. You link your PayPal to the app, and once you've earned $10 you can cash out. Easy and painless.
2. Gigwalk
Gigwalk is an app that requires a little more work, but pays more money. In Gigwalk, you link the app to your location and "jobs" pop up near you. These jobs are simple. You go to a location, follow the direction for your job, take photos, and then cash out through PayPal. For my "job," I had to go to Walmart and check out the Neutrogena skin care display, as well as take a few photos. I earned $5.00 for my job. This is a good app to check when you're out and about and you can earn some cash here and there.
3. Qriket
Qriket is an app that requires no effort, you simply choose a color and spin a wheel. If the wheel lands on your color, you win the amount of money that shows up on your screen. The highest amount I've won so far is 15 cents, but the money adds up over time. In theory, you could win $1000 if your winning spin is worth that much money. In order to spin the wheel, you need "spins" and you can get spins by watching short ad videos. You can cash out of Qriket at $25 through PayPal.
