Imagine making money just for walking around or doing some taks on your phone. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, turns out, a bunch of apps are already doing this and people are loving it.
This isn’t some weird scam or clickbait trend. It’s part of a growing movement where apps reward you for taking care of yourself. You move more, sleep better, stay focused and in return, you earn digital points, real cash, or gift cards. Basically, healthy habits = currency.
What apps are good for making money for walking and doing some tasks?
Apps like Macadam that is a step-tracking app where hitting your daily goals earns you “coins.” You can also stack rewards by watching ads, completing games or surveys, or referring friends. Just make sure to “freeze” your progress each day—or your streak (and coins) might disappear.
Winwalk: Simple and straightforward—100 steps = 1 coin, up to 100 coins per day. Your coins can be redeemed for gift cards (Amazon, Xbox, etc.), though it takes about 190 days of walking to earn a €10 voucher.
Swagbucks: not focused on walking, but lets you earn gift cards or PayPal cash by completing surveys, market research, or watching videos. They also offer daily trivia and mini‑games.
What’s wild is how effective it is. Instead of guilting you into better habits, these apps actually make it fun. You’re not just working out or unplugging, you’re getting rewarded for it.
Am I going to be rich?
No, you won’t get rich. But you will feel better, get more healthy, and maybe treat yourself to a free coffee or two along the way.
So next time you’re tempted to scroll, think about this: your phone could be paying you to put it down.
