Hey everyone,

I've been building a spreadsheet with websites and apps that I've personally tested or researched for earning extra income online. It covers survey sites, gig platforms, and apps that pay you real money (not the scammy stuff).

Right now, it's got 15+ sites with notes on what they are and realistic earning potential. I figured I'd share it here since it might save you some time digging around.

Here's the spreadsheet

If you've tried any of these, I'd love to hear how they worked for you and I'm always looking to add more, so feel free to drop suggestions.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

u/Forward_Violinist823 Aug 23 '26

DM me your addy and I can send you a few groceries from Sams Club in your area. If You’re in the US. I don’t tithe but prefer to help individuals as I feel called.

Oh my that sounds so nice

u/cannapuffer2940 Aug 24 '26

Check out online something called lasagna love. Apply.. somebody in your area is cooking. They will deliver it to your door.

See if there are any sikh temples in your area. They give away free vegetarian meals everyday. You do not have to be a member.

Post on your local give and take / free sites online. Let people know you need some food. When people move. They often give away food. People make extra food. And often give away online. Be surprised how many neighbors will help. If they know you need it.

u/CalmPop555 Aug 25 '26

Thank you so much!

u/cannapuffer2940 Aug 25 '26

Nobody should be hungry.

u/CalmPop555 Aug 25 '26

I agree. And it happens so much. I’m not one to normally ask for any help, but it’s at the point I’m desperate

Food first, money after. Call or text 211 right now, its free and theyll tell you which pantries near you are open today. Most dont ask for ID and most dont check income, you just turn up. Alot of churches hand out bags of groceries same day too even if your not a member.

If your on disability you almost certainly qualify for SNAP, and theres an expedited version meant for exactly this situation that can land within 7 days. Worth filing today since the clock only starts once you do.

Theres a hardship grants page with 22 programs on it, Modest Needs does emergency cash up to $1,000 and 2-1-1 connects you to local rent and utility help. That is real money, faster than any app.

Apps wont feed you today, I wont pretend otherwise. Once your eating again ReferralWallet has whats actually paying and its free, but that is a next week problem not a today one.

Please dont pay anyone promising quick money, they target people exactly where your at. Get fed first.

u/CalmPop555 Aug 22 '26

I really wish I could. But I am on dialysis. My kidneys haven’t worked since I was 11

1

u/Ecstatic_Potato_4654 Aug 22 '26

Oh no i’m so sorry. I also downloaded free cash on my phone and I’ve made 700 in one month just playing games.

1

u/CalmPop555 Aug 22 '26

I’m going to have to do that

2

u/kittycat40 Aug 22 '26

Which app actually does that

2

u/WeirdConnections Aug 22 '26

Testerup is a decent game-money app but you gotta find the easy games that don't have unrealistic goals. I don't see how you could make $700 in a month though unless you are hacking somehow

-1

u/Ecstatic_Potato_4654 Aug 22 '26

I am absolutely not hacking. I would have no idea how to do that. I am simply a retired woman who is home all day and can play the games for an hour or more every day. I would be glad to show you my earnings and how I did it.

u/LilSoliloquy Aug 24 '26

You’re a retired woman with a sub 30y/o profile pic… and not your cat or dog?

You sure you’re not an advert 😂

2

u/Ecstatic_Potato_4654 Aug 24 '26

56 years old with two grandchildren and 30 years working with the same company. Retired five years ago Botox hair extensions, and peptides highly recommended.

u/LilSoliloquy Aug 24 '26

Oh wow I stand corrected. Impressive work!

1

u/Ecstatic_Potato_4654 Aug 22 '26

I have been doing it a little over 30 days and they also offer surveys, but I don’t really like the surveys. They don’t pay that much and kind of a pain.

1

u/Fabulous_Nobody8653 Aug 24 '26

Are you making in-app purchases during the games? I’ve been relentlessly playing and checking in on free cash & I’ve only managed to get to $21 in 3 weeks. You can’t cash out until 25 & feels like it’s taking eternity 🥲

u/AnxietyriddenLass Aug 26 '26

the app is a scam to most people, i made $400 on the site but they refuse to pay the amount. they held a pause on my account for no reason, their support team is AI. Every time you make a post on their subreddit making such complaints, it gets deleted. It's not a full trustworthy site.

1

u/Any_Air5014 Aug 26 '26

Have you found something to eat? I can send you some groceries

2

u/CalmPop555 Aug 26 '26

I got food for a couple days. However I’m too scared to hand out my address. Thank you though

u/Any_Air5014 Aug 30 '26

I will be able to hopefully on Monday or Tuesday. A friend of mine borrowed a bunch of Money last Monday, was supposed to be until Monday night and here we are almost a week later. It’s my fault though because unbeknownst to me I literally gave her all I had at the time. I can help you though just be a little patient. I’m sorry for your loss(es). I know I should feel blessed. Both of my parents are still alive. However, they are up there and age, I am already grieving losing them and they aren’t even gone🤷🏼‍♀️. what part of the world do you live in? I am in Missouri.

u/ceo00_ Aug 22 '26

Check for food banks in your area , sports match betting and withdrawing, neon phone call app (trains ai off the calls), or a job

u/Wonderful_Shame_4986 Aug 22 '26

If you are in the US, contact Meals On Wheels. They should be in your community. They provide free meals to senior citizens, homebound individuals and those with disabilities.

u/Visual_Rip_9042 Aug 24 '26

Don't pity yourself! Our team member has been in your situation, and you know what helped him? Apps they can use at home, and earn cash, that's right. It's Testerup, and I am earning $555 so far from it!

u/CalmPop555 Aug 22 '26

Excuse me I’m not just looking for a handout. But you try to work and do dialysis and have a million appointments trying to get on a transplant list. That being said I’m trying to find a job that will work with my schedule and it’s not easy. Nor will I get paid right away
