Here are 7 apps that you can use to easily earn a side or full income, depending on how much time and dedication you are willing to put into it. I have received real money from all of these other than Rover (dog sitting) which has been used by a good friend of mine. So I can verify that these are apps that pay real money!
1. Streetspotr
Streetspotr is an amazing new app that allows you to earn money from anywhere you are. Once you are registered on their site and have downloaded the app, you’ll be able to see the paid Spots available in your area. To earn money, you will be visiting local stores, taking photos, and answering a few questions on your smartphone. With them, you can earn £3 to £5 for most Spots, by spending close to 5 minutes. However, as you get more experienced you will be invited to complete more complex tasks that can pay up to £25.
The payment method used on Streetspotr is PayPal, and you will get paid within 30 days of requesting payments.
2. Fiverr
Outsourcing has become a very popular way of getting tasks done quickly and efficiently. Fiverr is one of the most popular places to outsource your jobs and get them done on record time. With their high level of marketing and advertisement, it is increasingly very hard to find people who haven’t at least heard of Fiverr. Not surprisingly, more and more businesses, both online and offline, are using the services offered on Fiverr to complete tasks they’ll otherwise find hard to do.
As Fiverr continue to draw a large number of clients, the good news is that there is more and more demand for whatever services you would like to offer to the global market. You can make money on fiverr doing social media posts, blog writing, web design and many other jobs. Although you might start small, with time, your income from Fiverr might translate into a huge amount and you could even work fulltime on this amazing platform. It’s one of my favourite apps that pay real money.
3. Fronto
Would you be willing to view a few ads a day and earn a steady income? If so, that’s exactly what Fronto offers, it displays news and ads on your phone’s lock screen and you’ll earn points for viewing or interacting with each ad, points that you can exchange for cash, coupons, or gift cards!
4. Airbnb
Airbnb is an app that makes it possible to earn extra money if you have some spare space in your home. The Airbnb site acts as a community that connects travelers and hosts. As a member, you can list and rent out your apartment, or even just a spare bed, to other members on a short-term basis. Airbnb handles all the money and takes a percentage on both ends of the transaction.
If you have an apartment you can rent out or even an extra bed to spare, you can easily earn extra money using Airbnb!
5. Rover
If you’ve never heard of Rover, it’s an app where you can offer to be a dog sitter. Here’s how it works: By signing up as a dog sitter through Rover, you’ll be connected to a network of pet owners in need of providers who offer pet sitting or dog walking. Each client might be different. Some may prefer you to stay with the dog at their home and some may allow you to take the dog back to your home, depending on where they are most comfortable.
To sign up as a sitter, you need to create a profile on Rover and submit an application. AS Rover’s standards are strict, only about a third of applicants are accepted into the program, but once you are accepted, you can start earning an income from the app.
6. Roamler
Roamler is an app that pays you for carrying out audit jobs in restaurants and shops. The app offers you different tasks depending on where you stay. All you have to do is open Roamler to see what jobs are available to you. You’ll normally get a different job each time and as they are different tasks available all around the UK, you never lack tasks to do. The best part, Roamler pays you instantly on PayPal once you have reached their payment threshold.
7. Cambly
Cambly is a digital networking platform that allows students from all over the world to connect with native English speaking tutors to learn about things like structured English lessons, exam preparation, business English, job interview preparation, and survival English role-playing.
Cambly offers an opportunity to native English speaking tutors looking for a way of earning a side income or even a full time one by spending just a few hours of their time. The best part, you don’t have to be an English teacher to work at Cambly. All you need is the ability to communicate perfectly in English, and even if you are a business person, salesperson, or a cook, you can tutor with Cambly. It’s one of the best apps for people who want to teach online.
