Two Legit Work at Home Jobs That Pays Real Money

Finding "work at home" jobs, that do NOT require a landline phone, has been my goal lately.


I've actually found two places that pay out, either through Amazon or Paypal, that are legit. I've received payments from both places already and neither one are survey sites!!

Both websites pay you to perform tasks. Most tasks require you to take a screen shot, to prove that you performed the task. Some tasks have a set time limit, two to four minutes, if you don't finish your task in that time frame, you won't get paid.

One website is Amazon Mechanical Turk.

This website is directly related to the Amazon site, we all know and love. An example of the tasks are - finding photos on the worldwide web of items being sold on Amazon, doing searches on the www, writing simple paragraphs of items that are potentially up for sale, etc. Most tasks (or HITs - Human Intelligent Tasks) are not related to Amazon at all, a sample of those tasks are - finding addresses of vacation property, finding email addresses for professional people like doctors, therapists, plumbers, etc. Another task might ask you to watch a video, etc.

You choose what tasks you want to do. There is a small requirement task when you first begin but after that, every task you do is your choice.

The Pay - Each task pays a certain amount. Some super easy tasks pay as little as one cent to fifty cents. I've never chosen a one cent task, by the way, even if the task takes only half a minute to perform, I'm not going to accept such low pay.

 I have done a lot of super easy tasks that pay twenty five cents per task. They literally take a minute or less to do and I can do forty tasks in an hour and make an easy ten bucks! Plus with time to spare for a potty break and throw a load of laundry into the washer or dryer or both!

To get paid by Amazon, the tasks you perform are collected under your "Earnings" tab. You can choose to transfer money into your Amazon account only once per calendar day (10 days after you first start). Once you have transferred your money, you can then choose whether to transfer money to your bank or add money into your Amazon account. I leave that choice up to what bills need to be paid and when.

It's bought me a lot of groceries on Amazon fresh. Last week I bought over $200 in groceries, just using the money I earned on Amazon Mechanical Turk (and I used coupons & sales that I found on Amazon fresh, too)!

Side Note about Amazon Mechanical Turk - You have to apply to be accepted into the program. It could take between one and three days. They do not accept everyone who applies. I was accepted but my cousin was not. Amazon told her that she could reapply in three months time.

The next website is MicroWorkers.

MicroWorkers is also a "task for pay" site. It operates similar to the Amazon Mechanical Turk site but they offer tasks the other site does not.

Let me explain, on MicroWorkers, you find categories such as Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, etc. Under these categories you can find tasks to perform. For example, under Facebook the tasks you see are "like this page" for x amount of change (mostly it's ten cents to like a page, some pay less or more) plus you have to provide a screen shot for proof (and your fb name because it will be checked before you are paid). The same goes for YouTube except you're asked to subscribe to a channel. On Instagram, you're asked to follow an account. Etc.

MicroWorkers has thousands of different tasks to perform. Some are easier than others. The pay ranges from five cents to five dollars, per task.

Personally, I don't perform the social media tasks. Being someone who works hard to gain followers for my various social media, I'm against those who cheat by buying likes, subscribers and followers. I would rather use that money to reward my readers, who follow me on social media by their own choice, in the form of giveaways.

But that's just me. You do what you feel comfortable doing. No judgement here.

MicroWorkers pays using Paypal. You need to have at least $10.50 in your MW account before you can request payment. Then you have to wait 1-4 weeks for them to mail (to your home address) a PIN number.
My PIN came in 8 business days. By the time I received my PIN, I had $146 in my account. They send out payments twice a week on Wednesday & Sunday.

When you first sign up, they do ask you to jump through a few hoops by asking information about you and you have to accept them scanning your device/computer to look for bot programs that could perform tasks without you doing the work. I sincerely hope you don't use one, once it's found, you will be banned for life.

I divide my time between both sites, as well as a few other sites I will tell you about at a later time. It's a great way to make some much needed cash and in my own time frame, without spending 20 minutes answering survey questions only to find out I "didn't qualify for the survey." I'm done with the survey mumbo jumbo!!

My time is valuable, is yours?

Solely written for readers who follow my blog, who might be interested in new ways to make cash without answering mundane questions on a stupid survey that they might not get paid for.

I 💜 My Readers!
