Some work requires a higher level of physical fitness than other work.
For each gig or job, we've listed what we think is probably the maximum physical effort you need to do.
Things you need:
computer, camera
Also requires:
photos to sell, videos to sell
Earns in about:
38 days
NOTE: This information is estimated for many sites!!
There are many factors that affect when you get paid, including payment method, how much the platform "trusts" you in the beginning of your relationship, and the payment schedule for the site.
A typical bank transfer may take 5-10 days to deposit into your bank account. Selling an item may take a longer or shorter time depending on your price and how desirable it is.
Many sites take 1-2 weeks longer in their initial payout to you.
Cashout options:
PayPal
Some sites have different options for how you get paid and when. How can this help?
Sites may pay out more frequently (for a fee), or you can see whether a site uses PayPal, which is often faster for payouts than bank transfers in certain businesses.
Earning potential:
$5-80/photo
How much can you earn?
This is different for everyone. If you have valuable things to sell or rent, or you have a desirable set of skills, you'll earn more money. If not, you'll earn less.
Some sites use point schemes (these are less transparent than just getting cash) or pay you in gift cards (this limits where you can buy from).
If you have time on your hands, it may be worth it to learn and practice new online skills like writing, audio/video editing, or programming.
What it costs:
50% commission
Some services that we list are free and some charge money to use them.
Some sites may take a commission: a flat percentage of your sale price, rental price, or service price. Other sites may have a listing fee for each item you sell or for displaying the services you provide to customers.
Some other sites are free for you, but charge a fee to the person that purchases or rents from you.
