Get paid to do things you already do with these money making apps.
I’m a big believer in getting paid to do the things you’re doing anyway, whether it’s shopping or watching TV. Although I don’t believe you can pay your rent or make a living with smartphone money, there is a lot you can do to save, get free stuff, and yes, make money with your phone, often doing things you’re already doing. Not only that, the number of apps that will pay you in money, gift cards and other rewards continues to grow. So as an update to the 2014 post on phone apps that pay, here is an even bigger list, with more cool stuff you can do to make money with your smart phone.

Sara Sutton Fell, the CEO of FlexJobs.com, allowed me a sneak peak inside her work at home job database and flex-work related services. I’m always on the lookout for great work-at-home job related resources, so I was particularly interested in seeing what FlexJobs had to offer. What I found is that it offers quite a bit. Not only can you search for work-at-home jobs or other flexible work options, but the site allows you to personalize your services so that you get updates on new jobs that fit your interests, and the ability to have multiple resume profiles. From within the FlexJob dashboard you can save or apply to a job, and even send it to a friend.
