33 Apps That Make it Easy To Make Money From Your Phone

How many times have you caught yourself wasting time on your phone? Instead of scrolling social media, why not put that time to good use and make money from your phone?

There are many ways you can make money just by using your phone. For example, you can take surveys, earn cash back, sell various products and services, or even get paid to sit around and watch videos.

Apps To Make Money From Your Phone

These days 44% of Americans work some type of side hustle to increase their income. Some factors such as irregular work schedules and lack of childcare can make it difficult to put in extra hours at your job or pick up a part-time job. Still, you have options – you can make money from your phone however you can make it fit into your day.

You can use many different types of mobile apps to generate extra cash. While it's unlikely you'll earn a substantial amount of money from these apps, it is possible to make a decent side income each week, depending on how much time you're willing to spend.

Play Games on Your Phone

Getting paid to play games on your cell phone sounds too good to be true. But that doesn't hold true in this case. In fact, some of the most popular and highest-paying apps are actually apps that pay you to play games on your phone.

Technically, earning credit card points isn't necessarily an “app that helps you make money from your phone.” Still, these days credit card points are as good as cash.

Trade them in for free travel, free gift cards, a statement credit on your account, or even transfer the money directly to your bank account.

6. Cash Freely

Cash Freely is a free app to help you make money from your phone. Not only does Cash Freely recommend cashback credit cards, but it also teaches you how to earn as many cashback rewards as possible.

Put Money Back in Your Pocket

Rent Out Your Stuff

Do you have an extra room in your house that you're not using? Planning a move or an extended vacation? Good news. Renting out your real estate, spare room, car, etc., is a great way to create an additional income stream.

As C2C (consumer-to-consumer) web services grow in popularity, people are moving away from expensive hotels and rental cars and toward renting transportation and space from people instead of corporations. Use these apps to rent your stuff and get paid.

21. Airbnb

List your home, vacation home, or in-law suite on Airbnb, where the average hosts earn over $13,800 per year.

Taking good photos is one of the keys to success on Airbnb. Make sure your photos show off your space in the best light possible.

Create a complete and accurate listing, taking care to include details that guests will need to know. Then, once your listing is live, promote it on social media.

It would help if you also optimized your listing for relevant keywords so that it shows up when people are searching for places to stay in your area. Then, with some effort, you can earn a decent income as an Airbnb host.

Available on Android and iOS.


22. Neighbor

Neighbor makes renting storage space easy. Turn an extra bedroom, big closet, or garage corner into cash. Some hosts boast that they're making upwards of $15,000 a year!

Use the free neighbor app to easily list your extra parking spot, unpaved lot, or even your empty attic. Neighbors short on space are willing to pay to use your area to store their car, RV, boat, collectibles, or inventory – it's a win-win!

Available on Android and iOS.


23. RVShare

RVShare is another rental app specifically for RV renting RVs. While full-time RV living has exploded in recent years, most RV owners only use their vehicles a portion of the time. So instead of sitting unused, owners can list their RV for rent on the RVShare iOS app when it's not in use.

People who love to travel in an RV but don't own their own can browse the app and pay you to rent your travel trailer, fifth wheel, or classic motorhome for their trip.

Available on iOS.


Make Deliveries

24. Instacart

Instacart allows you to get paid to grocery shop. Sign up as a driver and receive shopping orders on the Instacart app. Accept orders from the Instacart app, do the shopping for the customer, deliver the order to the customer's location, and get paid.

25. DoorDash

Invest Money

Investing can be incredibly lucrative, but, of course, it's not without risk. These investing apps allow you to make money by investing and some even offer sign-up bonuses.

26. Acorns

Acorns is an app that tracks your spending, rounds it up to the nearest dollar, and invests the difference. So, for instance, if you spend for $5.75 on your morning Starbucks, Acorns will round your purchase to $6 and deposit the additional $0.25 in your investment account.

Using Acorns is a great way to begin investing when you don't have a lot of extra money to get started.

Available on Android and iOS.


27. M1 Finance

Investing doesn't have to be complicated. The M1 Finance app can help you start building wealth directly from your phone.

The M1 Finance app allows you to do all of your investing research right on its platform and also offers a variety of other accounts to meet all your financial needs.

Available on Android and iOS.


28. Stash

Stash is another app that both saves and makes you money! It rounds up your purchases to invest in stocks and ETFs with low expense ratios. This could make you a pretty penny in the years to come.

Get $20 of free stock when you sign up with Stash.

Available on Android and iOS.


Shop Online

Spending money to make money may sound counterintuitive. However, if you're already shopping online, these apps will reward you with cashback each time you make a qualifying purchase.

Whether you're doing your grocery shopping online or Christmas shopping on your lunch break, getting paid to shop is a no-brainer.

29. Fetch Rewards

Fetch Rewards is a free grocery savings app that rewards you just for snapping pictures of your receipts. There's no cost to join, and it's easy to use. Every time you shop — whether at a big box store, grocery store, drug store, or hardware store — scan your receipts to get your reward points.

Best of all, Fetch Rewards takes only seconds to earn points. No need to search for offers or clip coupons.

30. Drop

The Drop app rewards you for shopping at your favorite stores. Download the app and link a credit or debit card. Next, the app will prompt you to select the five stores you frequent most often when online shopping; each time you complete a purchase at one of these stores, you'll receive points.

Different stores will offer varying amounts of points. Earn 5,000 points (or $50), and you're eligible to redeem them for gift cards at places like Domino's, Trader Joe's, and Amazon.

Available on Android and iOS.


31. Top Cashback

Top Cashback app partners with over 4,000 retailers to bring you the highest-paying cashback offers. Because they pass 100% of their commission along to their users, Top Cashback can offer better deals than their competitors.
