10 Games that Pay to Cash App

The apps and websites on this list are completely free to use, so we recommend them as your first port of call if you want to start a side hustle getting paid for playing games.

Freecash offers opportunities to test games for money, and it promises “the best casual games, MMORPGs, sports games, and just about every other genre available.” It also has other types of app testing and paid surveys.

Freecash tops our November list of the 3 best apps due to its active online community, especially the r/FreeCash subreddit, which is actively maintained by the game’s staff and has over 44,000 members.

Freecash includes an Android app and a web version you can use with your browser.

Freecash doesn’t offer Cash App credit, but it does have other payment options that make it very easy to transfer your earnings to Cash App, including bank transfers and prepaid debit cards (meaning you can connect your prepaid card or bank account, respectively, to your Cash App account and then spend or send your earnings via Cash App).

Freecash also allows you to redeem rewards via your PayPal account (which you can transfer to your Cash App via your bank account or by using a PayPal debit card) and with other methods, including redemption via gift cards from a variety of retailers.

Finally, one unusual redemption option on Freecash is payment via crypto. Crypto may be a convenient way to get Cash App rewards, since Cash App provides a crypto wallet (as well as a normal digital wallet for cash transactions).

Scrambly is another platform getting quite a lot of attention online this month—although maybe not quite as much as Freecash. Scrambly is another platform you can use to download and play a wide variety of games (120+ of them, according to Scrambly’s Google Play Store overview), including puzzle games, casino games, strategy games, and more.

We also recommend keeping an eye on Scrambly social media for promo codes with free rewards and other offers, which have been forthcoming this month.

Although games are the main emphasis on Scrambly, you can also use the app to earn with offers, promo codes, friend referrals, and surveys (although these may not be available immediately after you start using the app).

Scrambly is available as an app for Android and iOS devices. You can also use at least some of its features on a desktop version.

How to get paid via Cash App

Like many other apps and websites we’ll see on this list, Scrambly allows you to redeem your rewards via virtual prepaid cards. With most prepaid cards, you can simply add the card to your Cash App to use for purchases, bill payments, or sending money to friends. This will usually be the easiest way to get your earnings from online games into your Cash App account.

Alternatively, Scrambly has an option to redeem via bank transfers. If you redeem with this method, you can then link your bank account to Cash App—if you haven’t already done so—and move your earnings from your bank account to your Cash App balance.

Finally, another alternative is to redeem via PayPal and move your money to Cash App via your bank account.

As this last strategy usually involves two steps, it will often be the least efficient way to get Cash App payments from Scrambly. However, some of the other games on this list won’t offer virtual prepaid card or bank transfer redemption options; in these cases, you might have to use PayPal to get Cash App credit.

If you have a PayPal debit card, which is a card that is automatically linked to your PayPal account, it will be easier to transfer your earnings from PayPal to Cash App, which you’ll be able to do by simply linking your PayPal debit card to your Cash App account directly.

People on Reddit are enjoying KashKick this month, with some saying they prefer it to Swagbucks—one of the most famous microtasking platforms out there (which we also mention later on our list). There’s also plenty going on in the official KashKick Facebook group, which has 26,000 followers.

You can use KashKick on your PC or as a mobile app (for Android or iOS devices). It’s less varied than some similar platforms (e.g., Swagbucks, MyPoints, and InboxDollars, which appear later on this list), but it still features surveys, offers from partners, and, of course, games.

How to get paid via Cash App

KashKick offers cash redemptions via PayPal or prepaid gift cards. The latter option is usually preferable if you want Cash App credit, since you can simply add the card to your Cash App, directly.

Alternatively, you can transfer your earnings from PayPal to Cash App via your bank account (or by linking a PayPal debit card to your Cash App account directly).

Mistplay is a mobile app featuring a variety of games, including puzzles like Words with Friends and old favorites like Solitaire and Merge Dragons. You have to download games via the Mistplay app to accumulate Mistplay points (or “Units”) while you play.

How to get paid via Cash App

Usually, the easiest way to get your Mistplay earnings into your Cash App account is to redeem them in the form of a virtual prepaid card. As with the other platforms we’ve seen, you can then add your prepaid card to your Cash App.

Alternatively, you can redeem via PayPal and use the same two-step strategy we’ve already described to get Cash App credit via PayPal. Alternatively, if you have a PayPal debit card, you can use this to transfer your PayPal earnings to Cash App directly.

Cash Giraffe is another app that will reward you for playing games, including arcade games, adventure games, casual games, strategic games, and more. It’s available for iOS and Android devices.

In addition to games, Cash Giraffe may offer other ways to earn, such as surveys and other apps to download.

Cash Giraffe offers PayPal redemption. If you redeem your Cash Giraffe rewards via PayPal, you can then use the two-step strategy we’ve already described to get money from your Cash Giraffe balance to your Cash App via your bank account (or use a PayPal debit card, if you have one, to transfer the money directly).

Gamesville is a website (with no app version available) that will pay you to play many different types of games, including multiplayer online games and online versions of classic games.

It’s a very well-established site, as it has been around since 1996, so it must be doing something right.

We couldn’t find information about how Gamesville pays out rewards. This may depend on the games you play, but you can usually expect PayPal and gift card redemption options.

Gamehag is a platform that offers a wide variety of games you can pay to get paid, including MMO games, RPGs, strategy games, war games, arcade games, puzzles, minigames, and more. Gamehag also says it will pay you for some other tasks, such as writing news, articles, and even messages on their forums.

You can use Gamehag on your PC or download the Android app to use on your mobile device.

How to get paid via Cash App

Gamehag has hundreds of redemption methods. These include prepaid debit cards (which you can link directly to your Cash App) and PayPal (which you can use to credit your Cash App wallet via the two-step process we’ve described or by using a PayPal debit card).

Like Freecash, Gamehag also has the unusual feature of redemption via crypto, with crypto vouchers among their redemption options. However, if you want to credit a crypto rewards voucher to your Cash App, you may have to redeem your crypto via a third-party wallet and then transfer it to your Cash App.

Swagbucks is often described as a “microtasking platform.” Microtasking platforms usually offer a wider variety of tasks you can complete to earn points. (Swagbucks points are called “SB.”)

Swagbucks is also widely known as a cash-back app, passive income app, and receipt-scanning app, as it rewards users for making qualifying purchases and uploading valid receipts.

Games are one of the tasks that Swagbucks offers. It features many different types of games, including casual games, strategy games, virtual card games, casino games, board-game-inspired games, and much more besides.

Swagbucks has a desktop version or mobile app versions for both Android and iOS devices.

How to get paid via Cash App

You can redeem your Swagbucks points via virtual prepaid cards (with a Mastercard virtual card available when we checked) and then link your prepaid card to Cash App as we’ve described to use it with Cash App.

Alternatively, you can use the clunkier process of redeeming your Swagbucks rewards via PayPal and then transferring the money from your PayPal account to your Cash App account. If you have a PayPal debit card, you can use this to speed things up.

InboxDollars is one of the most well-known microtasking and survey platforms that’s very similar to Swagbucks and offers the same types of tasks. You can find surveys that pay instantly (or at least fairly quickly) and a variety of games. If you use both InboxDollars and Swagbucks, you’ll probably see many of the same games and offers on them.

You can read our breakdown of Swagbucks vs. InboxDollars to find out which platform you can potentially make more money on.

As well as a desktop version, InboxDollars has Android and iOS apps available.

How to get paid via Cash App

Like Swagbucks, InboxDollars offers prepaid card and PayPal redemption options. You can use either of these methods to get Cash App credit, with prepaid cards usually being the easier way to go.

MyPoints is yet another microtasking platform similar to Swagbucks and InboxDollars, with similar types of tasks and featuring many of the same games. Along with a desktop version of the site, MyPoints also has Android and iOS apps for mobile devices.

How to get paid via Cash App

Like Swagbucks and Inbox Dollars, MyPoints offers prepaid card and PayPal redemption options, either of which you can use to get paid on Cash App (although prepaid cards may be the easier option).

Before you dive in and start playing, here are some tips to help you earn Cash App credit with online games:

• Manage your expectations: Although it’s possible to earn real money by playing online games, be warned that you almost certainly won’t make much. You can probably use the money-making apps from our list to make a few dollars here and there, but they won’t leave your Cash App bursting to the brim.
• Check redemption options: Prepaid card and bank transfer redemption options make it easy for you to transfer your online gaming rewards to Cash App. Before you start using a gaming app or website, you may want to check whether these two redemption methods are available.
• Check how long it will take to redeem: In our experience, after you redeem rewards on GPT apps and websites or microtasking platforms, you’ll often get your money within a day or so. However, many platforms caution that withdrawals can take longer—sometimes a couple of weeks or even more—so you may wish to research in advance how long payments take.
• Look for signup bonus offers: Many of the apps on our list promise an instant welcome bonus when you sign up with them. Look for the apps with the largest bonuses to help you reach the minimum redemption threshold and get your Cash App rewards asap.
