How to Earn Extra Money from Home

Although you are unlikely to make a full-time income from survey sites, you can use them to earn extra spending money. I’ve also listed some cashback sites so you can learn more about options for saving money on items you’re already buying.

Most of the sites I’ve listed have referral programs. When you use your unique referral link or code, you can get paid to recommend the sites to others on social media or your blog.

Ebates

Ebates (now known as Rakuten) is a cashback site for hundreds of stores. When you use their site, you can get a percentage of what you spend back as a check. I like to use their site to purchase my orders online and then use the pickup in store option. If you use popular sites such as Jet, Boxed, or Amazon, you’ll want to take a look at their site. When you spend $25, you can get $10 by using my referral link.

Honey

Honey is a free browser extension that can help you locate coupon codes, compare product prices, and get points that can be exchanged for gift cards. As you’re shopping on Amazon, it will let you know if a seller is offering the best price. You can also request that Honey tracks the prices of a product so you can determine if it’s the right time to buy. On the checkout screen, Honey will check all of the coupon codes they’ve found for a site and test them on your transaction.

There are 4,000 sites that are eligible for Honey Gold. If an online store participates in Honey Gold, you’ll receive a percentage of your transaction back. After reaching 1,000 in Honey Gold, you can receive a $10 gift card.

When you join Honey, you’ll be eligible for $5 to $20 back on your first purchase from a participating store. The bonus is time-sensitive, though, so you’ll need to make your purchase within 24 hours.

Checkout 51

Download the app and watch for offers that are posted each Thursday. You can also use their website if you don’t have a way to download the app. However, only their app includes a referral link so you can get credit for referring friends. As you find offers that match products you plan to buy, you can save them to your shopping list. When you upload your receipts with the offer products, you’ll receive cash back. You can cash out when you reach $20.00.

SavingStar

After selecting coupon offers that are posted in your account, you can upload your store receipts. You can also link your store loyalty card. Payments are made by PayPal or direct deposit after you reach $20.00. SavingStar does not require that you download an app.

Fetch Rewards

Download the app on your smartphone or Amazon fire tablet and browse through their posted offers. At the time of posting this, there were 213 brands that I could select.

When you use code X7NCQ you will receive 2,000 points. Enter the code prior to scanning your first receipt.

Ibotta

Download the app and then select offers. Purchase from their list of approved retailers (there are 276 stores) and then upload your receipts. You can also link your store loyalty cards. You can transfer your earnings to PayPal or Venmo once you reach $20.00. There’s also an option to receive gift cards.

SwagBucks

Get SwagBucks when shopping online, redeeming coupons, watching videos, taking surveys, and more. One of my favorite ways to earn SwagBucks is to use their search engine bar instead of Google. You can redeem SwagBucks for gift cards.

InboxDollars

Similar to SwagBucks, you can get paid to watch videos, take surveys, complete tasks such as reading emails, and more. You can use our link and receive a $5 bonus.
