Are you looking for a few quick and easy ways to make a
little extra cash through online websites and survey sites? Over the years, I have signed up for a few
survey sites and consumer research sites and such--and have earned legitimate
payments. I have also signed up for a
few that loaded my email accounts with spam and didn’t really offer anything of
any value. Although it’s been around for
quite some time, I just discovered a site called Jingit that offers ads and
surveys from brands and pays enrolled Jingit members for viewing and completing
tasks. What do we think of Jingit as a
way to make money online?
Jingit is user friendly.
Signup was easy--although you do need to add a mobile phone for account
verification. Jingit is extremely easy
to navigate and find earning opportunities, update accounts, and access FAQ’s
about the website’s terms, conditions and operations. Fees and account terms and conditions are
easy to find and understand. The site is
also active on Facebook and Twitter.
Can you make money on Jingit? There were two video ad opportunities
available when I signed up--watched both and earned 30 cents in a couple of
minutes. There were also opportunities
for earning through smartphone “brand check-ins” at a local WalMart store. Those two opportunities have payouts of 25
cents each--and require that I download the Jingit app for my smartphone and
use it to complete the “check-ins”.
Currently, Jingit has weekly payout limits. A new member with no referrals is limited to
earning $10 per week. Referring friends
causes the payout limit to gradually increase toward a weekly $15 limit. The site does not indicate how much the limit
increases per referral--so, we’ll have to keep you posted on those details as
we learn them.
How do payouts work at Jingit? Jingit pays out member earnings via either a
Jingit Visa debit card or toward Jingit’s music.me on-site music portal purchases. While the Visa debit card
allows users to use the cash however they like, there are card fees associated
with the account--like a fee to open the account--and users must essentially
sign up for the debit card through a Jingit bank partner (currently US bank)
and provide typical bank account sign up information--such as a social security
number. With three music loving, iPod
wielding daughters--I’ll likely use my earnings toward music.me purchases.
What do we think of Jingit as a money making
opportunity? You won’t get rich from
Jingit--and the site shows you that upfront with its weekly earning
limits. I probably won’t do many of the
“brand check-ins” since I’m very rarely a WalMart shopper and WalMart seems to
be their “check-in” hotspot--but, I’ll probably do a quick opportunity check on
the site during lunch or during my morning coffee. I would like to see other payout
methods--but, at least for me, I think Jingit will be a quick way to earn some
random music downloads for the girls.
The prices per song/album download are a bit more expensive than other
music download sites--but, I was just not inclined to accept the debit card fees. Before diving into the site, just be sure to
read the Jingit debit card fees and Jingit site terms thoroughly and read through the Jingit FAQ’s.
Disclosure: We were
not paid by the site for this review. If
you sign up for Jingit through our referral link, we simply have our weekly
payout limit increased. The information
provided is accurate as of the time of writing--(2/19/13)--but, will likely change over time. We may or may not update this post to reflect
site changes in terms or operation, so be sure to verify details directly at
the site reviewed.
