Earn online money when you under 18

It can be fun being young, but ask most teenagers what the biggest drag is in their life and they'll tell you it's the fact that they don't have enough cash money, doesn't just buy you nice things it also gives you some independence you can travel go to concerts take people out on dates being broke is no joke and it can really get a person down that's the reason today we're gonna tell you some ways you can earn some cash at a young age even if you're still studying.

We'll start with the lower-paying jobs and then end with the jobs that pay the really big money.

 

1-Online stuff

Okay so online stuff sounds a bit vague but we mean doing some things online that take no skill at all. You basically just answer questions fill in surveys or review stuff we found a blog online written by a young guy that used something called the I poll app it seems he was British but you can do similar stuff in other countries using this app. He was asked to go shopping and buy a particular product, answer questions about a product or sometimes just answer questions in a survey.

If he bought stuff he would have to upload the receipt and sometimes he might write something about the product. We should say that the rewards weren't massive and he had only earned about 130 bucks in a few months but hey if you're still in your early teens that's not bad at all you might need the consent of your parents though.

If you're very young we found other apps where people could earn cash doing surveys and some websites that paid for very short reviews of products one called slice the pie paid young folks to write reviews of just 30 to 60 words, which is easy you might also get paid for referring other people to do the same as you.

One person who wrote about his time using slice the pie said he got paid but it was only pocket money. He said this the exact amount of pay you can receive varies depending on a few different factors including your star rank and experience.

 If he reviews our consistently good quality your star rank will go up and so will your pay their website as.  We write this is down but it doesn't look like the business is no longer running to see a long list of similar jobs just Google something like getting paid for online reviews and surveys and you'll find what you're looking for.

 

2-Fiverr

We're gonna give Fiverr its own spot on the list because there are just so many ways to earn cash using this online marketplace there are people earning good money here because some of the gigs are for skilled people whether they're tech workers or musicians but there are also a lot of gigs that only require person to base basically write or communicate well in English.

If you get a gig after you're paid you'll have to give some money back to Fiverr,  but it's free to sign up. okay so you're not good enough to start copywriting or designing websites but there are other jobs such as doing voice over set don't demand that much technical experience but remember and take it from me it's more than just reading a script we should say there's actually a website called voices.com where you can make cash doing voiceovers.

If you have a clear voice then sign up to that and hey you might end up doing voiceover for your favorite YouTube informative show don't be dismayed if you don't have many skills because you're still young just have a look around and see if there's something you can offer. If you put some time and effort into this we think you could make some money.

 

3-Tutoring

You might not consider yourself good enough to be a teacher but you might be pretty good at a subject that are just age 16 or 17 there are plenty of online tutoring websites that we found and on many of them.

If you're over 15 you can start helping people out just go online and search for jobs which allows to tutor.  They exist because we've been looking around the web and we've seen them job sites tell us that the average wage for a teenager doing online tutoring is anywhere from $10 to $15 an hour which isn't bad at all since you're doing something you enjoy and you don't have to leave the house.

 

4-Taking care of pets

we looked online for dog walker jobs and most paid somewhere from 15 to 20 bucks an hour the problem with the hiring companies though was that some said you had to be at least 18 years of age, but you know what you can walk a dog at 16 you just need to be trusted and when you have refused people will trust you instead of working for someone else.  You could start your own gig hand out flyers you made online in the neighborhood or just start your own Facebook page and a lot of people these days are so busy they'll be glad to have someone walk their pet.

We should mention that with all jobs there is the issue of tax but there's a threshold amount that you must earn before any taxes paid, bank rate tells us that this is 12,000 a year in the USA.

5-Chores

We found websites online telling youngsters how to start their own car washing business and again because teens are so tech-savvy these days they can market their business easily online. It's not like the old days when teens had to go house to house and rely on family and friends.

We found some kids earning a lot of cash washing cars and we're talking hundreds of dollars a week this goes for yard cleaning or snow shoveling in the winter when you know those leaves are going to fall or that snow is going to dump down.

Your Facebook page is out there telling people you can help them out you are young and don't charge too much there are also a lot of older people that cannot do this physically demanding work so you're a surface for the community in the past they might not have been able to contact you but with your Facebook page they can contact you and you can be around at their house in minutes just check out the local laws where you're working.

We found one news article in the USA which told the story of cops stopping teens in one town from shoveling snow because such a job was described as being an unlicensed solicitor and peddler.Iit's really up to the cops and the laws in the state but we found at times youngsters have been stopped selling cookies or eliminated in the street they won't get charged with anything.

 

6-Rent stuff

You might not know this but there are websites out there where people just rent stuff out and they do well out of it there's one in the UK called rentnotbuy.Co.UK and people rent out just about anything does your family have a leaf blower a lawnmower some power tools are your parents okay with you renting their stuff out or do you own the things yourself?

 If so start renting we found just about everything you can imagine being rented out one guy was renting out his barbeque grill for almost forty bucks a day another person was renting out a cake tin for $3 a day when you're renting stuff to others you're also lowering consumption so sharing is caring for the environment, maybe you have sporting equipment a bicycle, a trampoline that just sits in the yard doing nothing rent that stuff out go online and find out where you can do this again make sure your parents know about this.

 

7-Helping the elderly online

Some of you teenagers are way more computer literate, than a lot of older folks you'd be surprised how many people don't know what an ISP is or don't even really understand how a modem works often.

When someone's internet is not working for them there's a really easy fix or perhaps someone wants to export some data from one place to another but they don't know how to do it maybe they have a load of old family photographs but don't know how to digitize them using a scanner etc.

That's where you come in you offer yourself as a kind of IT support worker. So you might visit the house of people you know or just tell them what to do online we should say here that when you're talking about visiting people make sure you have your parent's consent or perhaps just work with people you know.

 

8-Podcasting

Okay so you might not have as much life experience as Joe Rogan or Sam Harris but you know what young folks sometimes just want to have a laugh and they want to know what their peers think. You can start young and it really doesn't take much effort to record or video a conversation.

You can look at tutorials online to see how you might get started maybe you could talk about events at your school or do a podcast on local sports fashion whatever you think is interesting you can be the voice of the youth in your area and many people might find this in education.

You could talk about gaming or even interview adults young people are already doing this and when enough people start watching your content you can make money from running ads on the platform. We found some people doing podcasts for teens made by teens and they were getting quite a lot of hits this could turn into a career for you there's no immediate payoff but you could get big in time.

 

9-Online sales

You can just start selling stuff on Facebook or on websites such as Etsy or eBay. It's as simple as that we found a recent headline in The Guardian newspaper that went meet the teens making thousands from selling online. They were using lots of platforms to sell their stuff but sometimes Facebook was the only way to find customers sometimes they just found clothing and sold it on for more than they paid for it.

One teen was even selling Rubik's cubes while another guy was selling Dungeons & Dragons dice another girl was making big money from buying secondhand women's luxury bags and then reselling them on Facebook over the years. She became the go-to person to sell a bag too and the go-to person to buy one if you couldn't afford a brand new one if you have a good eye for products and can generate a big enough following.

You can make a lot of money doing this in your teens the proof is numerous newspaper articles that feature these teens we're talking about making thousands of dollars a month.

 

10-Gaming

 The holy grail of making tons of money online from doing something you love is gaming. You might have seen how an American teen just won three million dollars from winning a fortnight competition. Three others also became millionaires not everyone can be the best or even a pro gamer who streams their gameplay but you can make a steady income. Gamze you could become a game tester and make some money or even become a gaming coach by joining up to a site such as gamers sensei.com for that site you have to be 13 or over.
