Apps That Give Money For Watching Videos
Earn money is a cool Android app that will pay you for downloading apps. Either free or paid (higher pay). Also, the app has alternatives like watching a video or completing a survey to earn money. Since the pay is low, you can consider this if you have a lot of free time and also good Internet connectivity for downloading apps and ads. MyPoints is a great tool to use to watch ads for money. Some of the entertaining videos you can watch include things like Golden Globes coverage and gossip from Hollywood. But there are other ways to earn on the site as well. You can cash in on your hobbies to make money, like playing games, traveling, using coupons and filling out surveys.
Do you know what most teenagers will do in their free time? Browsing the images and watching videos posted on the social networking apps like Facebook, Twitter etc. Does anyone pay them for liking a post, sharing a link or posting a tweet? No.
Fortunately, there are some GPT websites and mobile apps where you will get paid to watch videos. The only thing you need is an internet connection with good speed. You can use any device like mobile, desktop computer, tablet or laptop for watching videos.
How To Earn Money By Watching Videos From These Websites
Below are the websites/apps that I use to earn money from watching videos.
1. Swagbucks
There are two ways in Swagbucks for earning money from watching videos.
Mobile Apps
Swagbucks has 6 different mobile apps for watching videos. If you have already a member of the Swagbucks website, you can use the same login credentials for these apps. Given below are the links for the apps that can be downloaded from the Google play store. ( I hope it is available for iOS also).
For every app, you can find videos in many categories.
- Just open a video from any one of the categories and leave the device undisturbed.
- Check every 15 minutes or so and make sure it is running. If you see any pop-up ads, just close the ad so that the video will continue again.
- Let the videos run till you see a similar message like this. ‘ You have hit today’s earning limit of SB’.
Repeat the 3 steps for all the 6 apps from Swagbucks.
Some apps pay 2 SB for every 5 videos while others pay 2 SB for every 10 videos. Each app has a daily limit of 10 SB. If you still watch the videos after completing the daily limit, you will not be paid.
Total SB that can be earned per day = 6 x 10 = 60 SB
Total SB that can be earned per month = 30 x 60 = 1800 SB ($18)
Desktop/Laptop
If you are already a member of the Swagbucks website, log on to the website and click the link ‘Watch’ on the left-hand side of the screen under the heading ‘Earn Your SB’. You will see a screen similar to the one below.

2. Hideout.tv
Hideout.tv is a standalone video platform that rewards users to watch curated quality videos on various categories like Food, Adventure, Music, Crafts and more. You will be credited with points for every 3 videos + ads you watch. The good thing about Hideout.tv is that it allows you to redeem the points to another loyalty rewards partner like Earnably, Zoombucks, InstaGC, GrabPoints, GrindaBuck and more.
At the time of writing, it lists 50+ loyalty rewards partners. Even though it allows you to link multiple rewards partner to your account, you can watch videos on only one device at a time.

You can continue the above steps till you reach the daily limit. ( I use this 1 to 3 times per day ).If you set a goal of 30 cents daily using this method, you can easily earn $9 per month.

Do you need to sit and watch all the videos?
Watch Video And Earn Money
No. You don’t have to watch all the videos by yourself. Just you have to check the device every 30 minutes or 1 hour and make sure that the videos are being played.
Can you watch the same video on more than one device?
It depends on the policy of the website you use for watching videos. Personally, I am not in favor of that. If you have more than one device, you can use both at the same time to watch videos from different websites.
