We waste hours per day staring at the screen of our expensive phones, so why not make some money while we are at it? Here are the best apps that will indubitably earn you some cash. Warning: You should not expect to get rich with the money you earn from these apps, but they will surely be enough for some drinks, some groceries or a couple of bills.
This app allows you to make money by taking photos. There are no limits here, so you can charge as much as you like per photo. The money-making opportunities through Foap are limitless and, once you make an account, you will be shocked to find out how much money some people are willing to spend just to buy a photo you hastily took during a lunch break, a date, a movie night, you name it.
Plus, big companies are always launching challenges for Foap members. For example, the reward for photos which respect the theme ‘Business Travel Photography’ is US$200 and Budweiser’s is US$500. You can find them in the ‘Missions’ section.
Foap is available for iPhone and Android for free.
