InboxDollars is a long-established website / app which pays you for completing a variety of activities, such as answering surveys, watching videos, reading promotional emails, and playing games.
We’ve spent 5+ hours using and researching the site ourselves. This InboxDollars review will help you decide if it’s a good way for you to make money online.
InboxDollars is one of the few sites that I think to be worthwhile (and by worthwhile I mean I’m making more than $1 hour, and lots more if you really put in the time and effort.

InboxDollars Cash Offers
Go to Cash Offers – here’s what the real money is. Look for 100% free offers. The Grow-Up Plan from Gerber will earn you $1, signing up for Bing Rewards (great in and of itself) earns you another $1.Others I chose:
Publishers Clearing House – hey, a girl can dream about winning it big but in the mean time I’ll settle for $1
Big Buck Survey – $2.25
FlexShopper – $6!
Swappable – This is one where you have to spend money to make money but it’s worth it. If you shop at The Gap or Old Navy, definitely choose one of those cards as you can save even more than I did. I chose the $50 BP card because goodness knows we always need gas. So I got $5 towards my first purchase, plus $6 from InboxDollars for making the purchase, plus .$50 for using my Amazon card to make the purchase. So here I basically got $50 in gas for only $39.50!
Discover Card – I like Discover and the rewards on this card are decent, so if you’re in the market for a new credit card, this is definitely worth applying for. $20 for approved users. Just make sure you stay thrifty and only put on there what you can pay off when the bill comes!
Nielsen Online – $5
Spin and Win – at least you get something for failing to qualify for those surveys. Won a whole $.60 from this!
Paid E-mails – set your preferences so that you don’t get these to your actual e-mail. Click through via the site and earn $.02 per click.
Grocery coupons – I do most of my shopping online, but these are still worth looking into to. Just make sure the savings is worth the cost of printing.
Searches – If you’re not using Bing (or even if you are), use the ID search every once in a while. You’ll win cash or sweeps every time you complete 4 searches and you can earn a $.05 bonus each week you search four or more days.
Donations – InboxDollars will often offer great rewards for donating to a not-for-profit. These change regularly so check to see if your favorite is there!
