Amazon Mechanical Turk
Among internet money seekers, this site is probably one of the most well known. MTurk, as it's affectionately abbreviated as by users, offers micro tasks. Micro tasks are small jobs referred to as HITs (Human Intelligence Tasks). The requesters use this platform to have people check up on automated tasks, or to do simple tasks that A.I. hasn't quite caught up with. I always think of this site as a virtual "factory" where MTurkers work on an "assembly line". From basic data entry to the obligatory survey, MTurk offers a spectrum of tasks best left to humans. Most of the payouts are very minimal, starting at 1 cent to do a 1 minute job. If you get on a good clip of copying receipts or transcribing hand written notes, you can make about 2 dollars an hour. I know that's not much, but if you're just zoning out watching Netflix, these tasks take no effort. Of course, there are also opportunities to do higher paying HITs which require specialties. If you have a degree or are an expert in a field, you can take Qualification Tests, which will qualify you for more niche jobs and studies.
The minimum payout here is $1.00, which must be transferred to an Amazon Payments account. You can link a bank account, and when the transfer from MTurk is done, you can transfer to your bank. Funds will be available in your bank within 5 days, but I usually have it in 2 days. You can also just use your Amazon Payments account balance like gift cards, and buy items off Amazon. As far as I've seen, these are the only two choices for payout.
I've used this site off and on for almost 6 years, and have made about $200.00, in total. The last $60.00 I've made have been just in the last 3 months, since I haven't had to leave the house to do any work. It does get monotonous, or just surveys may be available, which you can sometimes get paid better for doing on other sites. If you want the mix of repetition and surveys, this site is for you. By the way, you can access this site through your browser on your PC, phone, or tablet. For optimal use, I recommend using a computer. I haven't heard any news of an app yet, but I'm hoping this might be implemented.

I haven't heard any news of an app yet, but I'm hoping this might be implemented.
This is an app you can install on your phone or tablet, and you receive a small amount of points automatically every day. It's only available on mobile, as far as I know. Probably because it uses your location.There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to how many points it divvies out. Where you make the most points is when you go run errands or travel, because the app will ask you a few short questions about where you went. It seems to be random, and it won't ask you about the same place every single day. Every 2000 points is worth $1.00.
The minimum payout is 2000 points, which will yield a $1.00 Amazon gift card. The app offers gift cards from Amazon, Visa, Walmart, and Google Play. You can also enter various sweepstakes for nominal points. There is also a sweepstakes you can enter free each month.
I have been using this app for around 3 years, and have made around $30 in Amazon gift cards. I used to drive a whole lot in a previous job, and I got several surveys a day. I rarely get them anymore. If you travel or drive for work, this is a more profitable app.
I have a referral code, but I'm not sure what they offer now for a beginner. It was 1000 points when I signed on, so I'm assuming that is still the rate. : Panel App Referral Link
You can use this site through the app on mobile or tablet, or on PC. This is another run-of-the-mill survey site. I found that I didn't get nearly as many survey opportunities as other sites. Most surveys pay out $1.00, but again, there aren't many offered. A nice thing it offers though is a 10 cent consolation prize if you try to qualify for a survey, and don't get approved. This only works for maybe 5 tries. There's really nothing different about these surveys. If you're familiar with other sites, this is par for the course.
The minimum payout for this program is in the form of a $10 gift card. I've always gotten Amazon gift cards, but I've heard that a different card may be offered in different areas. I'm in the United States, so if you live outside my country, they may offer something else.
I have been using this app off and on for over 3 years and have made about $40.00 in Amazon gift cards. I have been hearing that Quick Thoughts has been arbitrarily suspending people's accounts, but I have had no problem in that department. That's just some advice I wanted to give, so be advised that this may be a risk upon using the app. Also, there is no sign up bonus or referral program in place.

Perk Apps
This is a group of apps that I honestly would only recommend if you have a good internet connection for videos, and like scratching tickets almost endlessly. The best app of these is the trivia app. It's fun but the pay out is so minimal. For every multiple choice question you get right, you get roughly 1 point. Each 3000 points is worth $3.00.
The minimum payout is a 25 cent Amazon gift card for 500 points. They also offer a Perk brand cash card, which is available at 3000 points for $3.00. They also offer sweepstakes, and the scratch cards give chances to win various gift cards. The gift cards available include Starbucks, Amazon, Home Depot, etc. They also have PayPal available.
I used the trivia app, the TV app, and the scratcher app for about 2 months off and on. I only made enough points to get a $2.00 Amazon gift card. I don't have a great internet connection, and couldn't take advantage of the videos, so maybe others will have a better time with it. I had to uninstall it because it was not advantageous at all. I'm still mentioning it because I have heard that some people have made an okay profit with it.
Apps That Pay You To Play Other Apps
I have used 4 variations of this kind of app: AppLike, Fitplay, Coin Pop, and Mistplay. I have had mixed results with these.
AppLike is the one I started off with, but I no longer use it, because it just kind of disappeared. I can't reach anyone from their support. It's too bad, because I made $35 in the span of two years. They offered PayPal too, which was great. It's not available now, but worth the mention.
Fitplay apparently is under the same umbrella as AppLike. It is still available now. It's an app that gives you coins for downloading and playing recommended games and using certain apps. You have to be a new user to the apps provided for them to show up as an option. As you keep using the paid apps, the profits go down. The minimum payout is 4999 points which equals 50 cents from PayPal. They also offer Amazon and Steam gift cards, among others. When you sign up you automatically get 4444 points. I've had no problems with payouts with this app. I've been using it for about a year and have made $10.00. They have a referral program where for every person you refer who installs and uses the app, you get 250 coins, plus 25 % of their lifetime earnings. The referred person also gets 25 % of their friend's earnings. Here's a link to begin with your 4444 coins and 25 % of my earnings : Fitplay Referral Link
Coin Pop is pretty much just a clone of Fitplay and AppLike. It may be the same company, but I'm not sure. They offer different apps than the other two, so it's nice to get that variety. The minimum payout is also 4999 points which equals a 50 cent PayPal credit. They offer the same gift cards too. Some gift cards include: Chipotle, GameStop, and IHOP, to name a few. You also receive 4444 coins upon signing up. The referral program works exactly like Fitplay. To sign up and receive the 4444 coins and 25 % bonus, go to this link: Coin Pop Referral Link.
The newest app I've utilized is Mistplay. It is different from the others as there are definitely more apps, and it seems the points and experience are more transparent. You can view your progress in a circle ticker around the level number. You automatically are given a mix list of games, but you can download any that are on the dashboard. There is a mixture of all the apps I've seen on the other three apps. So far it seems you can earn a lot quicker with this. I've had it for 2 months, and have already made $20. The nice thing is that some of the games offered are ones I've played before and I can use the same account. I have picked back up on several games that I lost interest in, which is a very nice incentive just on it's own. This app is more social than the others, as they have a chat option, and you can follow others. You can see others stats, including games they play, which may give you ideas for new games to try. The minimum payout is 400 points which is equivalent to a 50 cent Amazon gift card. They also offer Visa Virtual gift cards, and have just added Google Play, Playstation, XBox, GameStop, Apple, Nintendo, and Starbucks cards. You can also use your points to purchase cool avatars for your profile. Here's a link to begin with 50 points: Mistplay Referral Link.
Out of these 4, I would definitely recommend Mistplay over the others. The one down side is that it takes more battery to run, as it has to display over other apps. You can always disable it though while not playing. I haven't seen any problems in doing that. It's the most fun, most versatile, and I've made more profit more quickly than others. Not to mention, I don't feel like I HAVE to play. I can enjoy myself.
Well, that's another section of my internet income list. I still have 10 to go and I'll probably break that up into 2 more parts. I'm finding it therapeutic to give these somewhat thorough reviews of these sources of profit that many people may not know about. Again, you won't get rich, but it's nice to know if you need gas money, or need to buy lunch, you might have a little bit of money tucked away. I try to just forget about having a balance on some of these sites sometimes, and then it's like a little surprise. I don't do that very often though anymore as I've been trying to keep track and be more organized lately. I just started a blog on Wordpress, but it's in progress. I haven't posted a proper entry yet. The site is thatsnobbychick.000webhostapp.com, if you want to check it out. I'm planning to migrate this blog there, or that blog here. I haven't decided yet. Anyways, enjoy my list, and maybe make a few bucks.
