Of course, getting a job would be on the top of this list, but today I will talk about ways you can make money without from home. Now, there are many blogs out there that discuss this topic, but I am going to just talk about the apps and websites I have tried.
Not to sound desperate(I am very desperate), but I have tried so many money making apps and websites. Can you blame me? The only job I am able to get is at Kroger’s, and they won’t call me back. My parents also believe in working for your money, so they don’t provide me with money for anything I want. Since I am anti-social, I have a lot of free time which means I have time to go through a lot of apps and websites. Without further ado, here’s my list of money making ways.
- Favorites
Swagbucks: I have gotten multiple payments from them, and it’s very easy. It took me about a week to collect enough money for a $25 Amazon card
Virily: I actually just started this website, but it’s an easy way to get money while do something I love. I have seen many people get their money from them, and some websites are saying it takes 1,000 Virils to $1 (but of course it varies)
myLot: This website is like Virily, but you can see how much money you are collecting and not in point form. Just like Virily, you can get points/money for your activity and feedback. You can get paid once you collect $5.00.
- Surveys
Survey Junkie: I personally don’t use this one because I use Swagbucks the most, but you can get money by doing surveys. This a point system too, and it’s 100 points per dollar. You can cash once you obtain $10 or 1,000 points.
Toluna: Toluna is a survey and content type of website. You can do surveys, but you can also post your opinions. This website also uses the point system. You get 500 points when you sign up, but you need at least 30,000 points to get a gift card from the stores. It takes a while to get that many points.
- Scan Items and receipts
Checkpoints: you scan items in stores and you get points for it
Ibotta
Shopkick
Fetch Rewards: Turn Grocery Receipts into Rewards
- Play Games
App Flame: Most of these games on this list will have the same formula. How this works is you download a game from there recommended and they pay you(points) for playing the game. It’s all dependent on how long you play the game
Gift Game
Applike
Coin Pop
- Giveaways
100% real) Free Giveaway Free Gift Cards and Gifts: This is more reliant on chance, but a lot have said that they’ve won on it. I kept it for one week before I got tired of it.

Mylot pays really poorly, considering the amount of time you spend on the site.
A lot of people don’t even make payout monthly, which sadly, is just $5. I would stick with it only as a way to have fun and not to earn any serious living.
It comes to a point where you have to decide on the value of your time.
Good, because I am interested in this very topic. Many people do mention swagbucks.
wow, this is gold, thank you so much for the information
