Easy Income: 5 Apps that will Pay You Cash Rewards
1. Ibotta
This is one of my favorite apps, especially because I enjoy grocery shopping. Once you download the app, my advice is to add all the retail cards you have onto the app. This will automates the process of receiving cash-back rewards once a purchase has been made at the store. The main work you have to do is to add the offers that will enable you to get the most cash back.
They currently have a browser extension that is in beta which will allow you to earn money while shopping online; however, I have not tried it yet and would not be able to attest the ease of use.
My personal referral code is nnyqeej if you choose to sign up it would highly appreciate it.
Next, we have the Target Circle app. You automatically get cash back from purchases you make in Target. The process entails you scanning the app or put the phone number associated with your account when you are checking out. According to the website, you earn 1% when you shop at Target. Additionally, they have special offers depending on the season, but make sure to check the app before you visit.
3. CoinOut
Another app that gives you money for receipts is CoinOut. For most receipts, you may earn anywhere form $0.01 to $0.15 (find a penny… pick it up right?!). I think the highest I’ve earned is $0.10. The app provides the opportunity to exchange your balance for an Amazon gift card or to have your balance sent to PayPal or directly deposit into your bank account. Let me know your thoughts if you decide to sign up for the app.
Google Reward is a survey platform ran by Google – yes Google! Here is the thing you probably will not get rich from taking surveys. Most companies, if not all companies, are constantly collecting your data on you and your habits. My thoughts are you might as well get paid. This is not necessairly passive, but it takes less than one minute of your day to complete a survey. Depending on the survey you take, you can earn anywhere between $0.10 to $0.85 or even more. The app automatically transfers your earnings to your PayPal account once you reach $2.00+.
Fetch Rewards is like Ibotta, but it does not require you to ‘add’ any items. Instead of money, you get points that enable you to buy gift cards. Each receipt gets you anywhere from 25+ points. After you have more than 3,000 points, you can truly exchange your points for gift cards. Another cool feature about the app is it allows you to keep track of your expenses. Below you will see screenshots from my actual account. I love the tracking feature more than anything else.
Bonus: Affiliate Links
Affiliate links like the one included throughout my website provides the opportunity to earn money for having links on your website or social media platform. Affiliate links direct people to sign-up, buy, or go to a specific website. For instance, if you sign-up for Ibotta and create an account that allows me to get a referral fee for joining the platform. The only work I had to do was to inform you about the information.
PS: If you choose to support me through any of the affiliate links on my website, it is highly appreciated.
