The KashKick site is slightly different from the other sites that pay you to watch movies or complete surveys. Kashkick displays its offers in one place.
Most of the offers require you to sign up. KashKick gets paid to promote products and services then shares the commission with you.

11. Nielsen TV Ratings
If you still watch traditional television, you can also make money by becoming a Nielsen family.
For decades, “Nielsen families” have been the primary influence for television show ratings as households track which shows they watch.
While this is an exciting opportunity, participants are chosen at random, and there isn’t an application process.
You will need to watch your mailbox for an invitation. If you are selected, they will pay you for your efforts.
Nielsen does invite more families during the “sweeps” season months of February, May, July, and November.
Trustpilot: 2.1 out of 5 stars

13. Watch Netflix
As the most popular subscription video streaming service,
Netflix periodically hires “taggers” to watch and tag their programming to provide accurate recommendations to fellow subscribers.
You can see all open positions on the Netflix job board. Tagger positions are not the most financially lucrative and can require long hours.
But, if you love to binge-watch content or watch anything Netflix has to offer, this can be a great opportunity.

Summary
You can make extra cash watching videos in your free time from almost anywhere. It’s possible to make money from home or even while waiting in line.
The flexibility of how you can earn money watching videos and movies is what makes this a fun and creative opportunity for anybody.

Vrimee | EarnFreeDollars
Josh Pataka,
Nice post. I have never heard of the term theatre checker before. It seems to be interesting. I would like to share my experience in watching videos below.
1. Swagbucks – It is one of my favorites sites. I have made a constant earning every month from the 6 mobile apps of Swagbucks by watching videos.
2. Perk.tv – I used all the apps of the Perk family and have reached the minimum payout. However, they didn’t pay me saying there were some issues even though I replied back. I had no luck!
3. InboxDollars – I guess now they have reduced the amount to watch videos. Still, it is a good option to make money from the InboxDollars TV. The only drawback is their high minimum payout of $30. So, I got paid only once.
4. SlideJoy – I received payment from SlideJoy once. It’s slow earning, but legit.
I’ve yet to explore the other options.
Josh Patoka
Thanks for sharing your experience!
Bijay
It is the best way.
Josh Patoka
Most of us watch videos online, so it’s an easy way to make money!
Brian
I used InboxDollars back in college and earned $100 before requesting payment. I received a check for the amount shortly thereafter. I’ve also recently used Swagbucks. My account got suspended for breach of rules, so make sure you read those before utilizing any site. Otherwise, all your hard work could be lost. I plan on giving each of these sites a look.
Thanks for the article.
Deacon
I am sorry your account got suspended. However, you give some good advice. Hopefully, you won’t get burned like that the next time. 🙂

Thanks mate for sharing this informative article. Of course these are the best ways to earn some bucks while watching videos. I’m working on Fiverr and also like to start this kind of earning in my leisure time. I’m very thankful for this guide.

I’m glad we could be of help to you. Good luck with your hustles to make money!
Pritpal
Hi, sir. I’ve read your article for making money, but you ask me which website is best for me. I don’t want to pay any money.
Deacon
You can sign up for lots of different websites and make money without having to pay anything. If you aren’t sure you want to sign up with them, check out their policies, terms, and conditions links to find out more before signing up.
While watching videos does take time, it’s an easy way to make extra money. Good luck in your money making efforts!
faiza
I don’t have a PayPal account. Can you tell me the sites that don’t require one? From Bangladesh. 🙂
Deacon
Honestly, that is up to each individual site. You would just have to check with each one by going to their site and looking. Many do use PayPal or some other method of electronic payment. Once in a while you will find one that pays by mailing a check. It just depends on what they chose to use as a payment method. Good luck!
Deepal Rodrigo

Does it really work?
Deacon
To find out for yourself, give a few of them a try! You might find a new way to make money. Good luck!
Arindam
Thanks, sir. I have only 1 question for you: how do I protect my bank account from being suspended by these apps and do I have to give my account number to all of these apps?
Deacon
To keep your account inside the apps from being suspended, I would carefully read through the Policies, Terms, and Conditions sections of each. That way you can ensure that you follow their rules, which should keep you from getting suspended. As far as giving your account number to them, you should not have to. Most pay through PayPal or some other such platform. Again, check how they pay before signing up if you are concerned. Good luck to you!
Mj
They don’t allow users from Asia…That’s sad.
Deacon
I’m sorry to hear that. Perhaps you could try some other money making avenues. We have tons listed on our website for you to try. Good luck!
Isah
Good afternoon. I’m from Nigeria. What apps can you suggest for me to try now that allow anyone to participate thank you.
Deacon
Well, I would say you could try any of them. However, if you want to be sure they will work in your country, check the policies, terms, and conditions sections of each as well as the FAQ’s. If you don’t get the answers you need, try contacting them directly to ask. I wish you luck!
Chaithra
How will Nielsen Digital Voice do payments? Will they transfer money to PayPal? Please let me know.
Deacon
The best way to find that out is to go on their website and check out the policies, terms, and conditions. If you do not find the answer there, look for their contact information and ask them directly. Good luck!
chaithra Udupa
Is QuikRewards available in India?
Deacon
I don’t know without checking their website. That’s where I would start if I were you. If that doesn’t tell you, try contacting them to ask. That way you don’t miss out on an opportunity to make money. Good luck!
Angel R Soto
I was doing something similar, but they pay with BITCOIN and I never knew my balance in cash. How can I get it?
Deacon
Since you didn’t say what app this was in I can’t look at the specific app you are speaking about. In general, I would say to look at the policies or terms and conditions for the app you are in. They are usually posted at the bottom of the main page. It should tell you somewhere how to redeem your points, money, or Bitcoin. If you can’t find it, I would look for a contact page to contact them directly and ask how to redeem your bitcoin. Good luck.
Suga Mama
Josh Patoka,
With all due respect, Josh, none of the above websites are applicable to me, here in the Caribbean. ???? The websites that do look promising are only available to residents of a certain country, such as America or another country.
I only recently found out that Netflix is available here in the Caribbean. My only issue is, due to circumstances beyond my control, I am unable to purchase or sign up with Netflix.
To be honest, I’m tired of researching dozens of websites. When I thought that I’d finally found the perfect “get paid to work online from home watching videos”, I found out that they were all scams. ????????
That said, I’ve given up looking for such websites.
John Ben
Thanks so much. I really like this article, but my own question is, which of these sites is most suitable for Nigerians?
Deacon
You would just have to check the ones you are interested in to see if they will work in your country. Lots of times you can find that information right on the website. Sometimes they have a site map that tells you, or it could be a list. Also, check the policies, terms, and conditions sections. If all of those fail to say, you can always look for their contact information and ask directly. I hope you find one that works for you!
Alonge M. A
I can’t join this program because my country, Nigeria, is not accepted.

Deacon
Kabir, just click whichever links in this post you are interested in. Then check to make sure it will work in your country. I would look at the policies, terms, and conditions to see if it says anything. If you are unsure you can always ask each site directly through their contact information. Good luck!
Yemi
Is it possible for someone from Africa to get paid from the above listed sites?
Deacon
Maybe. You would just have to check with each of the sites you are interested in to see if it is available in Africa. Check their site map, if they have one. Also, look at policies, terms and conditions. If none of that tells you, contacting them directly through the contact information on their site is another way to find out.
Jonathan Arwita
What sites above are available in the Philippines?
Deacon
You would just have to take a look at the ones you are interested in to see if you can do them there. A good place to check is in their policies, terms and conditions. Some may also have a site map that shows what countries they are available in. If none of that answers your question, you could also contact them directly through their contact information on each site and ask. I wish you luck!
Tayyab
Hi! I’m from Pakistan. I have seen many people commenting that these websites aren’t allowed in Asia. Is it now available in Asia (Pakistan)? One more Question: Are these websites totally safe?
Deacon
If you want to know if any of the websites are allowed in Pakistan, check out the sites you are interested in. Take a look at their site map, policies, and terms and conditions. If none of that tells you, try asking directly through their contact information on their website. I hope that helps.

Hey, what about us here in Botswana?
Deacon
You would just have to check each of the sites you are interested in to see if they work in your country. Look at their policies, terms and conditions, and FAQ’s to see if it says anything about it there. You might also look for a site map. If none of that works, try contacting them directly from the contact information on their website. Good luck!
Ron
What’s the site for Philippines?
Deacon
To find out if any of these work in the Philippines you would need to check with each one. Try looking at their policies, terms and conditions, and FAQ’s to find out. If that doesn’t work, you could always try asking them directly through the contact info on their site.
Ben T
Can I have a list of the sites available in Zambia, please?

Typically, how much do people make from watching videos online? How long does it take before you start making money?
Deacon
It depends on the requirements from each different site. They all have their own policies, terms, and conditions. Check them out to see which ones work the best for you. Good luck!
michael
When it comes to payments, most of them require PayPal in Zambia. You cannot receive money using PayPal.
So, what site is best for us in Zambia, please?
Deacon
You would just have to check out the sites you are interested in. Some may have a site map that tells what countries they work in. For others you might have to look at their policies, terms and conditions, or FAQ (frequently asked questions) section. If that doesn’t tell you, try contacting them through their contact information on the website to ask them directly. I hope that helped. 🙂

Guys, I’m in Africa. What’s your experience with WORKMINES?
Deacon
I’m not sure what your actual question is. I’ve never used them. Are you asking if they are legit or not? Honestly, I do not know. I did notice they have a membership fee that makes me wonder if it is actually legit.
Kagiso
Hi, I’m South African. Our employment rate is so very high. So, I just want to watch the videos in SA and get paid.
Deacon
I don’t know if any of these are available in South Africa or not. You would just need to go to the sites you are interest in and look. Check for a site map and also look at their policies, terms and conditions, and FAQ’s (frequently asked questions). If none of that tells you, try asking them directly by using their contact information. Good luck!
Kagiso
Sorry, I want to ask if it’s available in South Africa for me to watch?
Ramatulahi Fatima conde
That is so nice, but I would like to ask something. How would I receive my payment?
Deacon
That’s between you and whichever company you work with. Each company has it’s own rules. You should be able to see them in their policies, terms and conditions, or other area of their website. If you can’t find the information, contact them directly using the contact information on their site.
Andrea
None of these are available anymore.
Deacon
Did you actually follow the links? I followed the first couple of links myself and they work and let you watch videos and get paid.

I’ve used other sites like these on here and one of them is FluxRewards. They are so good. Their support is super helpful and their offers are pretty good.

Thanks for sharing your experiences. Now I have an idea where to start. I think I should try each one of these opportunities. I’m in Africa – Swaziland to be specific – and most of these platforms don’t work in my country, yet internet access has improved.
Deacon
Not everything that works in the U.S. works in other countries, to be sure. You will just have to check with each company you are interested in. I hope at least a couple work for you! 🙂
Anne Studstill
I made 30 dollars in 9 days of around 4 hours each on Inbox Dollars. Some of it was passive tv video watching, so easy. There is a 3 dollar fee for receiving a check, but they credited me 3 dollars toward my next check and offered me a fast 2 dollar survey about Inbox Dollars. The check may take 18 days to send. My only complaints are that I am often disqualified from surveys after answering questions for several minutes. The free spins rarely make me more than a penny per survey that can’t be completed. The best way to earn is to look through the survey list and to find the highest paying per minute. The daily home page surveys are easy and give credit toward scratch and win cards. You always win something, but the amounts can be tiny. Overall this site is easy for beginners. and I make around 90 a month, but others make 124 or more. Pinecone pays around 12 a month for around 4 surveys a month and after a few weeks you can get free things in the mail to test confidentially. Toluna is another good site that offers many types of gift cards in exchange for points for surveys. It takes a few weeks to get enough points to have a good selection of cards.
Deacon
So glad to hear you’ve been having success with some of these sites! Of course they have their cons, but they can make you money! Thanks for sharing some of your experiences!

As a recent college graduate looking to enter the world of finance this seems like a valuable use of my time considering the minimum legal wage to pay an individual is $7.25 an hour.
Justin Marr
What is the most you can earn from watching videos online? I have watched some videos and made money doing it on InboxDollars, but I have calculated that the most you can make on there watching videos is about 14 cents per hour. That almost barely seems worth it. Are there any ways to earn at least a few dollars an hour watching videos online?
Jess Nardini
A lot of these sites don’t allow you to make a ton from watching videos. Though a lot of them do offer other ways to make money. I personally got over 15 bucks in a month for Amazon from signing up for the free trials on Swagbucks and canceling them before they billed me for them. And I really didn’t spend much time on the site! The videos allow for a way to make a little extra money, and some of them you can even leave playing in the background so you can make money with barely any effort!
Muhammad Azaan
I have used a one app related with video watching and earn money i have work for it and finaly it gave me a 0.000714 its totaly wastage of time.
Jess Nardini
A lot of these can make you money but it takes a long time. It’s definitely not mean to replace your income, but they can give you a little extra freedom. Especially if the sites just let you run the videos in the background!
