Are you in dire need of additional money but, for whatever reason, would prefer not to work in a typical job? Perhaps you were placed on furlough and are awaiting a call from your company. Perhaps you have an injury or illness that prevents you from leaving the house, or perhaps your baby doesn't have daycare. I mean, who couldn't use a little additional cash in their pockets?
Launch a Simple Side Business Now

Too busy for a time-consuming side project or second job? Not an issue! Take a look at these smartphone apps that will compensate you for doing various chores while you go about your regular business.
1. Start an Uber or Lyft ride
You may have been living under a rock if you haven't heard of Uber or Lyft by now. Don't have the time to chauffeur folks all night. It's alright. Once employed, you have the choice to only take jobs that work with your schedule.
You may make extra money without having to go too far out of your way or waste valuable time by picking up and dropping off folks who are already in the area you are heading to or who wish to be dropped off there. With a little extra work, you can start making extra money by signing up to drive for Uber or Lyft!
2. While watching TV, complete paid surveys.
Survey Junkie is a genuine website (with an app as well) that pays you for your insightful feedback! They provide you with the chance to voice your ideas and become an influencer, assisting brands in providing better goods and services. You can do surveys on their user-friendly website, accrue points, and exchange them for well-known gift cards or PayPal cash out.
To be clear, conducting online surveys won't make you a millionaire, but it's a terrific way to make some additional money while you binge-watch Netflix in bed.

3. Observing a Field Agent Mystery Shop
Using tasks like snapping images of various brand displays or responding to inquiries regarding in-store merchandising, users of the Field Agent app gather data for businesses. You may apply for a variety of jobs, most of which pay $5 or more. If you live in a particularly rural place, it's usually not worth the time because there won't be as many jobs available, and you'll be spending a lot of your earnings traveling different distances for each work.
You could probably make a lot more money with a lot less work if you live in an urban place. For instance, you might theoretically finish several tasks in the same location if you're already in town doing errands or shopping, saving you gas money and valuable time in the commute to each work.
4. Online Clothing Sales
The amount of money you may make by selling your used or unwanted clothes online might surprise you! There are plenty of places to sell your clothes, such as consignment shops on Facebook Marketplace and thrift stores, but there are other websites that are not only more user-friendly but will also give you a lot more money than the previously stated possibilities.
If you have home and apparel items you would like to sell online, check out Mercari and Poshmark. You may sign up for both for free, and you won't be charged anything unless you close a deal!
5. Get Reward Cash While Online Shopping
The truth is that at some point, we will go shopping. As a matter of fact, we have to go shopping and make purchases every day, right? Correct! So why not download one (or three) of these apps, which will essentially PAY YOU for the items you were going to buy anyhow? It's essentially the easiest side gig there is.
Rakuten, Upside, Top Cashback, and Dosh are a few of the greatest cashback apps.
