15+ Money Making Smartphone Apps
I use a variety of money making smartphone apps to earn extra cash in my spare time, including survey apps, task-based apps and shopping apps. Using a combination of these money-making apps I’ve managed to earn £100’s this year. And most of that was from either my sofa, on my commute or while out shopping – all thanks to my smartphone! Being able to earn money with my phone has reduced my social media use, improved my productivity and boosted my finances.
Top 10+ Money Making Apps:
I have an iPhone so the apps I discuss below are all accessible via the App Store, however, in most cases, these apps will be available for Android users too! Here are the best money making apps for iPhone and Android users.
Money Making Smartphone Apps
Dundalk Sport
Mobile betting on the platforms featured at Dundalk Sport has become hugely popular in recent years as punters have switched on to the convenience of wagering on a smartphone.
New and existing customers can access tons of bonuses and promotions on betting apps in Ireland, which can boost your chances of securing a winning return without breaking the bank.
BeMyEye
When it comes to earning extra cash BeMyEye is one of the best money making apps available, BeMyEye is a task-based app that pays you to complete easy audits such as identifying coffee machines, taking pictures of creative sales displays & uploading receipts!
I usually earn £4-£8 per task – the tasks take less than 10 minutes. You can request payment once you’ve earned £5. In total, I’ve earned £105 from BeMyEye now. For each task you complete, you also gain XP; the higher your XP the more perks you get!
Field Agent
Field Agent is very much a mystery shopping type app, the tasks you often get from Field Agent are reviewing particular shopping market displays. Earn £4-15 per task and be in with a chance of winning a bigger cash prize (usually £25-£200).
I’ve earned over £100 by using this app and apps like Field Agent! You can request payment straight to your bank, this is usually processed within a week.
AttaPoll
AttaPoll is a survey app that pays you to complete easy surveys on your phone. The surveys are fairly regular but can often be time-consuming.
You can earn 10p-£2 per survey. Withdraw your earnings once you reach £3. You can also earn points (40p) for referring friends and family.
Influence
Influence (previously VoxPopMe) is a video survey app that pays you to record yourself reviewing a brand/service/ad. You only need to record yourself for a minimum of 15 seconds.
You can earn 25p per 15-second recording (sometimes more if you qualify for brand-based videos). Withdraw your earnings once you reach £10.
Swagbucks App
Of all my money making smartphone apps Swagbucks offers the most variety – they pay you to complete surveys, watch videos and complete offers on your phone (and online). See my Swagbucks blog post for tips on earning more from Swagbucks.
I earn at least £5 a week from Swagbucks just in my spare time! Make sure to collect your daily bonus to get a big payout at the end of the month. Most surveys pay around 75 Swagbucks (around 50p).
Sweatcoins
This app adds value to the distance you walk/run outside. Sweatcoins offers cash rewards based on how far you walk (outdoors) each day. You earn 1 sweatcoin for every 1000 outdoor steps you walk/run. You can also gain additional points by checking into the app every day. There are also tons of offers on the app and they usually have a cash option too!
Realistically, it’s going to take a long time for you to earn anything significant with Sweatcoins. However, if you have a group of friends/family who walk a lot you could all pool your points together and redeem one of the marathon offers (£1000 cash/Samsung TV/iPhone). I’ve seen many Sweatcoin Reddit threads discussing how to claim big prizes.
MobileXpression
MobileXpression is a data collection app for Android and iOS that pays you for sharing your data. Get rewarded for sharing your mobile and app usage. Passively earn £5 a month for keeping the app downloaded on your phone.
Checkout Smart
Checkoutsmart is a cashback shopping app. There are daily offers, so it’s worth checking to see what freebies you can bag from your local supermarket. Keep the receipt and scan as you will need a photo of these to get your money back! You can cash out your earnings at any time but will incur a small fee (5%) if you cash out before earning £20. Payments can take up to 10 days to be processed.
Shopmium
Get cashback on your shopping (including groceries and toiletries) with Shopmium. There are loads of freebies on this app, but you’ll also find money off & buy one get one free offers! Expect lots of free food, drink, and cosmetics. Combine these offers with coupons, mystery shopping or other cashback apps and you can make a profit from buying freebies!
You can also refer your friends to join Shopmium for a bonus of £3 (this can be used against any of the offers on the app).
Airtime Rewards
Airtime Rewards is a cashback app that offers cash rewards every time you shop at a selected retailer. In order to earn cash you need to connect your credit card. You can then use this money to pay your next phone bill!
Airtime Rewards is one of my favourite money making smartphone apps. It’s a slow earner, but it’s an effortless way to cut the cost of your phone bill. Earn £5 for every friend you refer too!
Use code D4E3EPAA for a £2 bonus (when you buy a gift card within 7 days).
